Pore Water Pressure Response in Soil During Tsunami Loading : Numerical Formulation and Experimentation

Creator:: Abdollahi, Abbas
Abstract:: Tsunami loading can cause sediment instability, which can compromise the structural integrity of coastal buildings and infrastructure. To understand the process by which a tsunami can cause sediment instability, it is necessary to understand how the pore water pressure in the soil changes during tsunami loading. Tsunami run-up causes the...

Central Desert Studies : Archaeological Survey and Excavation in Baja California, Mexico

Creator:: Willis, Samuel C.
Abstract:: This dissertation serves as a contribution to the study of the prehistory of the Central Desert region of Baja California, Mexico. Between 2007 and 2011, a trans-peninsular archaeological survey and excavation program―the Central Desert Early Prehistory Project (CDEPP)―was completed for a portion of the Baja California peninsula extending from the...

Elucidating Computational Narratives to Facilitate Code Comprehension

Creator:: Chattopadhyay, Souti
Abstract:: Programming is integrated across the workflow of multiple domains where end-user programmers, those who need to program as a means to an end, regularly need to code. In the modern setting of collaborative development, end-user programmers have to interpret the intentions behind existing code to contribute and build solutions to...

An investigation of the relationship between Christian religious ideology and identity achievement in selected university students

Creator:: Parker, Carl Edward
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is a relationship between identity achievement and Christian religious ideology in selected university students attending Oregon State University. The sample consisted of two hundred and forty-nine students enrolled during the winter quarter 1978 in Psychology and Education courses. The respondents...

Computational Elucidation of the Regulatory SNPs in the Non-Coding Regions of the Human Genome

Creator:: Yao, Yao
Abstract:: We describe a series of novel computational models, CERENKOV (Computational Elucidation of the REgulatory NonKOding Variome) and its successors CERENKOV2, CERENKOV3, and Convolutional CERENKOV3, for discriminating regulatory single nucleotide polymorphisms (rSNPs) from non-regulatory SNPs within non-coding genetic loci. The CERENKOV models are designed for recognizing rSNPs in the context of...

Molecular investigation of the cnidarian-dinoflagellate symbiosis and the identification of genes differentially expressed during bleaching in the coral Montipora capitata

Creator:: Hauck, Laura L.
Abstract:: Cnidarians, such as anemones and corals, engage in an intracellular symbiosis with photosynthetic dinoflagellates. Corals form both the trophic and structural foundation of reef ecosystems. Despite their environmental importance, little is known about the molecular basis of this symbiosis. In this dissertation we explored the cnidariandinoflagellate symbiosis from two perspectives:...

Linguistic foundations and cultural diversity for the teacher education program at Oregon State University : an instructional system

Creator:: Petry, Larry L.
Abstract:: Purpose of the Study The education of culturally diverse children has been one of the focuses of education since the early 1960's. One of the factors influencing education's inability to deal with the needs of culturally diverse children is the lack of teacher's foundational knowledge of language and linguistics as...

Evaluating Biochar for the Sustainable Treatment of Heavy Metals in Stormwater: Characteristics, Mechanisms, and Barriers

Creator:: Burch, Sarah
Abstract:: Heavy metals, such as copper, zinc, and cadmium, are ubiquitous in stormwater and potentially toxic to aquatic organisms at low concentrations. Removal of heavy metals contamination by conventional treatment is expensive and does not always reduce metals concentrations low enough to ensure safety of all aquatic species. This research seeks...

Robust and Efficient Classification of Videos in the Wild

Creator:: Mahasseni, Behrooz
Abstract:: Recognizing human actions in videos is a long-standing problem in computer vision with a wide range of applications including video surveillance, content retrieval, and sports analysis. This thesis focuses on addressing efficiency and robustness of video classification in unconstrained real-world settings. The thesis work can be broadly divided into four...

Material Expressions of Class, Status and Authority amongst Commissioned Officers at Fort Yamhill and Fort Hoskins, Oregon, 1856-1866

Creator:: Eichelberger, Justin E.
Abstract:: During the 19th century the United States Army was a military institution characterized by a hierarchical system of authoritative, social and economic inequality between members of its different military grades. Although necessary for insuring military discipline within the Army this system of inequality also influenced the non-military social lives of...
