Evaluation of total hip arthroplasty research in the US and Europe

Creator:: Simmons, Marcy J.
Abstract:: Background: Hip replacements are considered routine operations which improve the quality of life in patients by reducing pain and restoring function. There are many variations in prostheses with varying benefits and disadvantages. Methods: Literature from the United States and Europe was collected on total hip replacements between 2001 and the...

Airborne sampling of particles emitted to the atmosphere from Kraft paper mill processes and their characterization by electron microscopy

Creator:: Augustine, Frank Edward
Abstract:: A high volume sampling system, employing Nuclepore filters and designed for sampling particulate in the plumes from industrial sources using a light aircraft, is described. The effluent of kraft paper mills was sampled using this system and then analyzed by electron microscopy. Size distributions of particles were obtained at several...

An Engineering Decision Support System (EDSS) with alternative-criterion pair evaluations

Creator:: Herling, Derald E.
Abstract:: An Engineering Decision Support System, EDSS, was developed using Bayesian mathematics which incorporates knowledge and confidence components observed in alternative-criterion pair decision making. The separation of knowledge and confidence has been previously unaccounted for in decision-making methods. EDSS provides decision support to individuals or teams which must make choices between...

A computational model for resonantly coupled alpha free-piston Stirling Coolers

Creator:: Al-Hazmy, Majed Mualla H.
Abstract:: A computational model for a resonantly coupled alpha free-piston Stirling cooler is presented. The cooler consists of two isothermal working spaces for compression and expansion connected by a regenerator consisting of a stack of narrow parallel channels. The regenerator is assumed to have a linear temperature distribution along its axial...

An experimental study of co-flow ammonia-water desorption in an oil-heated, microscale, fractal-like branching heat exchanger

Creator:: Mouchka, Gregory A.
Abstract:: An experimental study was performed in which an ammonia-water solution was desorbed within a branching fractal-like microchannel array. The solution entered in the center of a disk, and flowed out radially until discharging in to a gravity-driven separation chamber. Heat was added to the ammonia-water through a thin wall, above...

Comparison of the Accuracy and Applicability of Forebody Wake Effect Models for Parachute System Design

Creator:: Kemling, Gabriel H. and Blunck, David L.
Abstract:: The forebody wake effect (FWE) is important to consider when designing parachute systems because it can affect parachute performance. Parachutes work by altering the aerodynamic properties of an attached forebody to control a descent. The FWE can reduce parachute drag, causing the system to descend faster than desired. This drag...

Using Digital Human Modeling to Evaluate and Improve Car Pillar Design: A Proof of Concept and Design of Experiments

Creator:: Mellon, Taylor R. P.
Abstract:: Considering human factors in early engineering design stages can improve expensive late stage processes, facilitate user safety, improve product quality and help reduce the need for physical prototyping. Currently, car pillar design (the vertical pillars between windows which connect the roof and car body) provide safety for the passengers in...

Reverse engineering, modeling, and redesign of a vibratory conveyor

Creator:: Foglesong, Timothy J.
Abstract:: Some successful products are still developed and produced without the benefit of modern design techniques. One such product is a vibratory conveyor that has been developed largely through prototype iteration. The manufacturer has collaborated with Oregon State University to introduce model-based design into the development process. This research details a...
