  • Analyzing the current state of Oregon's skilled nursing facilities

    Creator:
    Shockey, Antonette, Luck, Jeff, Mendez-Luck, Carolyn, Larson, Annie, and Alvarado, Carla S.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this project is to paint a picture of the state of Oregon’s Skilled Nursing Facilities for the 2015 state fiscal year. Skilled Nursing Facilities are an important part of Oregon’s Long Term care continuum that provides care to individuals needing post-acute or on-going care. The URAP student...

  • Healthy living in Oregon project

    Creator:
    Cervantes, Marlene
    Abstract:
    The Institute of Medicine has identified Latino and American Indian populations as populations experiencing significant health and health care access inequities. Previous research indicates that Latinos and American Indians suffer from excess morbidity in respect to same-aged White adults due to higher rates of preventable chronic diseases (i.e. high blood...

  • Investigating a Universal Prosthetic Design Process

    Creator:
    Martinez, Maria de los Angeles
    Abstract:
    In current prosthetic practices, the design process heavily relies on the prosthetist’s expertise and the limited methods to quantify design choices. This thesis investigates the lower-limb prosthetic fitting process and the importance of the socket design. Previous research has taken local stiffness of the limb to provide prosthetists with more...

  • Design and Implementation of a Modular Ocean Drifter Kit

    Creator:
    Green, Austin
    Abstract:
    Ocean Drifters are a low-cost and easy-to-use platform that are commonly used for studying ocean currents. With added interest in studying the ocean, emphasis has been taken to make it more accessible. A pilot course focused on introducing the topic of ocean sensing was announced. The HC 407 course will...

  • Design, Layout, and Testing of a Printed Circuit Board for Cyclic Voltammetry

    Creator:
    Harper, Karen
    Abstract:
    This project concerns the design, layout, assembly, debugging, and testing of a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) that autonomously, reliably, and effectively conducts Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) measurements. CV is an electrochemical procedure done to analyze, quantize, and visualize reversible reduction-oxidation reactions, often used in medical devices to monitor the levels of...

  • Underwater Camera Systems : A DIY design for field research in freshwater systems

    Creator:
    Zamarripa, Emily
    Abstract:
    The ability to observe species in their natural setting using remote cameras is an increasingly important tool for in-field research. Remote cameras for terrestrial studies are inexpensive and widely available, but there are few comparable options for researching aquatic habitats. For this study, a do it yourself (DIY) underwater camera...

  • A novel approach from measuring from non-blackbody emissions of LEDs under varying lattice temperatures near zero bias

    Creator:
    Oliver, Cyrus
    Abstract:
    As responsible energy usage is becoming more and more a part of the public conscience, a key practice of this idea emerges. Specifically, using the energy we do have with maximum efficiency. While the laws of thermodynamics remain a limiting factor, research has been done to show that properties of...

  • Viability of Single-Photon Avalanche Diodes for use in Pulse Oximetry

    Creator:
    Bialek, Hayden
    Abstract:
    Pulse Oximetry is a technology used ubiquitously across the medical field for measuring oxygen saturation and heart rate monitoring. In this project a system was developed to use a new technology for pulse oximetry: single-photon avalanche diodes (SPADs). This work outlines the development process and experimental results of a SPAD...

  • Prototyping of Thermoelectric Energy Harvesting Circuitry for IoT Devices

    Creator:
    Webb, Derek
    Abstract:
    Due to the advancement of incredibly low power microcontrollers and small form factor integrated circuits, energy harvesting can be considered as an alternative, low power source for remote ocean sensing and measurements. To demonstrate the effectiveness of harvesting thermoelectric energy contained in the temperature differential between ocean surface water and...

  • Wireless Multi-Sensor Patch for Wind Turbine Impact Detection

    Creator:
    Wilson, Calder
    Abstract:
    Bird and bat collisions with wind turbines are a problem that needs to be better quantified for its impact to be fully understood. This thesis documents portions of the design of a sensor patch module for use on wind turbines blades to detect impacts caused by birds and bats. This...
