Neisseria gonorrhoeae is the sexually transmitted pathogen responsible for millions of cases of gonorrhea worldwide each year. Rapidly-spreading antibiotic resistance is diminishing the ability to effectively treat a disease with significant consequences to female and male reproductive health, as well as to neonatal well-being. A protective vaccine has the potential...

Data-Driven Environmentally Sustainable Product Design: A Shift Toward Increased use of Sustainable Design Activities in the Early Design Phase

Creator:

Ferrero, Vincenzo J.

Abstract:

Modern product design drives the boundaries of innovation by encompassing complex Design-for-X objectives, and the inclusion of multidimensional stakeholders. This growing complexity in product design has left design teams unequipped, as classical design theory is bounded by designer experience, expertise, and cognition. One novel approach to tackling product complexity is...

Bond strength investigations and structural applicability of composite fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) rebars

Creator:

Kachlakev, Damian I.

Abstract:

The composite FRP rebars research at Oregon State University was initiated in 1993 principally to develop a non-metallic hollow reinforcement. It was recognized that the tensile properties of such reinforcement are unquestionably superior to steel, but its performance in concrete could be problematic. The bond between FRP rebars and concrete...
