  • An historical review of Kolb's formulation of experiential learning theory

    Creator:
    Hickcox, Leslie K. (Leslie Kay), 1951-
    Abstract:
    The central purposes of this study were to review the historical sources of David Kolb's formulation of experiential learning theory, and to determine the effect and application of Kolb's theory and Learning Style Inventory as reflected in the literature between 1971 and 1990. It was found that Kolb based his...

  • Dispersion of the Columbia River plume based on radioactivity measurements

    Creator:
    Frederick, Lawrence Churchill
    Abstract:
    An investigation has been made of several physical parameters of the effluent plume of the Columbia River as it enters the Pacific Ocean. Radioactive material in trace amounts enters the Columbia River from the Hanford nuclear reactors at Richland, Washington. One of these nuclides, chromium -51, has been used to...

  • A study of judicious discipline : a constitutional perspective for school rules and decisions and its effect on the school-related attitudes of students

    Creator:
    Bolden, Robert A.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this study was to determine if students' school-related attitudes are significantly affected by teacher classroom discipline management based upon concepts contained in Judicious Discipline: A Constitutional Perspective for School Rules (Gathercoal, 1986). The data relative to student school-related attitudes of elementary, middle, and high school students toward...

  • CMOS low noise amplifier design utilizing monolithic transformers

    Creator:
    Zhou, Jianjun J.
    Abstract:
    Full integration of CMOS low noise amplifiers (LNA) presents a challenge for low cost CMOS receiver systems. A critical problem faced in the design of an RF CMOS LNA is the inaccurate high-frequency noise model of the MOSFET implemented in circuit simulators such as SPICE. Silicon-based monolithic inductors are another...

  • Switch-capacitor Power Amplifier with Enhanced Power Back-off Efficiency and Linearity

    Creator:
    Qiao, Bo
    Abstract:
    Nowadays, wireless communication systems use high-order quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) together with orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) to increase the link capacity and robustness. These signals always have large peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) and require power amplifiers (PAs) achieve both high efficiency and linearity simultaneously. For the efficiency, the complementary metal...

  • Incremental Forming of Polymers at Room Temperature

    Creator:
    Davar Panah, Mohammad Ali
    Abstract:
    Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF) is a forming process in which a fully clamped sheet is formed by a hemispherical ended tool that moves along a predefined 3D toolpath. The sheet is formed in a series of local deformations to reach its desired shape. Double Sided Incremental Forming (DSIF) includes...

  • Control of alkane monooxygenase activity and expression in Pseudomonas butanovora

    Creator:
    Doughty, David M.
    Abstract:
    The regulation of monooxygenase enzymes has been demonstrated in bacteria that grow on methane and long chain-length alkanes (>C10). Less is known about monooxygenase regulation in short chain alkane oxidizing bacteria that grow on intermediate chain-length alkanes C2-C10. This dissertation focuses on the regulation of butane monooxygenase (BMO) expression and...

  • Hydric Soils in Eastern Oregon Temporary Pools

    Creator:
    Clausnitzer, David
    Abstract:
    Two types of temporary poois, known as playas, occur in semiarid southeast Oregon. Vegetated upland playas are found in the High Lava Plain province; barren alkaline-saline playas are found in the Basin and Range province. Both types become ponded in most years, but they often lack redoximorphic features indicative of...

  • Competitive interactions and resource partitioning between northern spotted owls and barred owls in western Oregon

    Creator:
    Wiens, J. David
    Abstract:
    The federally threatened northern spotted owl (Strix occidentalis caurina) is the focus of intensive conservation efforts that have led to much forested land being reserved as habitat for the owl and associated wildlife species throughout the Pacific Northwest of the United States. Recently, however, a relatively new threat to spotted...

  • Longitudinal electroproduction of charged pions from Hydrogen, Deuterium, and Helium-3

    Creator:
    Gaskell, David J.
    Abstract:
    Conventional pictures of nuclear interactions, in which the pion mediates the long/medium range part of the nuclear force, predict an enhancement of the virtual pion cloud in nuclei relative to that in the free nucleon. Jefferson Lab Experiment E91003 measured charged pion electroproduction from Hydrogen, Deuterium, and Helium-3. The longitudinal...
