Numerical Analysis of Experimental Impacts on Wind Turbine Blades

Creator:: Fleiger-Holmes, Kahlan
Abstract:: Wind energy is one of the fastest growing renewable forms of energy in the United States and the world. However, interactions between wind turbines and wildlife have the possibility to injure animals such as birds and bats. Strategies to assess and minimize wind turbine interactions with wildlife are critical for...

Developing and facilitating growth mindsets using the self-determination theory in recreational gymnastics coaches

Creator:: Furuya, Nozomi C. K.
Abstract:: The present study was a program evaluation of KidSpirit that investigated how gymnastics coaches’ growth mindsets changed over an eight week period after a training intervention. A mixed-method approach was used to measure growth mindset and self-determination theory (SDT). There were three aims of this study: (1) participants would improve...

Synthetic instrument generation : generating novel instrument timbres with a genetic algorithm

Creator:: Knowlton, John
Abstract:: The use of genetic algorithms to compose music and generate sounds is an area of interest in the artificial intelligence field. Music and instrument sounds have known rules and structures that can be followed which make them well-suited for genetic algorithms. However, genetic algorithms still struggle to generate sounds comparable...

Low-frequency Teleseismic and Infrasound Arrivals along the Dense Corvallis Nodal Array

Creator:: Way, Rachel
Abstract:: The dense Corvallis array deployed in January of 2022 aided in the high-resolution study of local geology. This array was made of 177 SmartSolo 3-component 5 Hz geophones around Corvallis, with a 93 geophone profile going west towards Bald Hill for approximately 5 km at an average of 64 m...

High school students' anticipated ROI in college and other career plans

Creator:: Kang, Kenneth
Abstract:: This study investigates the evaluation of Return on Investment (ROI) in education from the perspective of high school students, introducing a theoretical model that encompasses both financial and non-financial aspects, with a primary focus on the unique insights provided by high school students. Drawing from a literature review and survey-based...

Turning Brake Cylinder Housing

Creator:: Radcliffe, Noah
Abstract:: The purpose of this project is to assist the OSU Baja Racing vehicle in turning more sharply. This is done using a turning brake, which locks one rear wheel to facilitate turning on a smaller radius. This project focuses on the development of a custom cylinder housing for the turning...

Opportunities and Limitations in Achieving Real-Time Observation of Soil Nitrate

Creator:: Auld, Ryan A.
Abstract:: There are many possible benefits that can arise from the ability to take real-time measurements of soil water nitrate concentrations in a field, from ecological to agricultural to industrial reasons. In order to achieve this, we adapted a NitraLED sensor with a ceramic porous cup in order to allow diffusion...

Investigation of the Effects of Commercial Salmon Fishery Management in Upper Cook Inlet, Alaska

Creator:: Fleming-Craig, Danielle
Abstract:: Optimal commercial fishery management sustains each salmon species' population while maximizing economic benefits. This thesis addresses two questions. What are the Alaska Department of Fish and Game's and the Board of Fisheries' intentions when conducting a fishery management plan in Upper Cook Inlet? How does it compare to its implementation?...

Using PCR techniques to assess Chlamydia trachomatis genome

Creator:: Moo-Fuentes, Jordi C.
Abstract:: Chlamydia possesses an immense importance within both human and animal medicine when looking at pathogens. Chlamydia trachomatis infections have been shown to affect both the eye and genital tracts in millions of humans and animals every year [13]. As C. trachomatis strains are highly conserved in patients, it has made...

A preliminary assessment of post-fire dissolved organic carbon concentrations in the McKenzie River basin, Oregon

Creator:: Hyatt, Charles
Abstract:: In recent decades, the occurrence of large, high severity wildfires has increased substantially in many parts of the world, including the western United States. These fires have the potential to impact water quality, aquatic ecosystems, and downstream communities for many decades. As such, it is increasingly important to understand the...
