  • Improved justifications and sensitivity analysis for capital expenditures

    Creator:
    Solis-Sarmina, Jaime
    Abstract:
    In this study, three main issues are discussed: possible bias arising when inflation effects are neglected in engineering economy studies, capital projects authorization forms which are not designed to include inflation effects in the calculations,'and the introduction of a new graphical technique for capital expenditure sensitivity analysis. Approaches are described...

    Creator:
    Stone, Helen Delight
    Abstract:
    Site ORYA3, the Smith House, is located in Dayton, Oregon. The archaeological project originated because owners of this structure, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, applied for a demolition permit. The 1859 home, first occupied by two early Oregon pioneers, Andrew and Sarah Smith, was considered architecturally significant,...

  • The evaluation and selection of highway safety improvements for local jurisdictions

    Creator:
    Haq, Asif Jinnah
    Abstract:
    Many hazardous locations exist on our local and street highway systems. Such hazards contribute to the frequency and severity of traffic accidents. The elimination and mitigation of the hazards reduces accident frequency and severity, as measured by the number of fatalities, injuries and property damage resulting from the accidents. The...

  • Development of a Strain Gage Program for the Measurement of Strain on Prototypic, Plate-type, High Performance Research Reactor Fuels under Flow Testing

    Creator:
    Weiss, Aaron W.
    Abstract:
    A large, multi-year experimental program has been conducted to develop a strain gaging program for application to the flow testing of prototypic, plate-type fuel for high performance research reactors. This test program has resulted in the selection of appropriate strain gage construction, adhesives, and protective coatings to allow the acquisition...

  • A strategy for monitoring the Payette National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan

    Creator:
    Thompson, Joyce Elma
    Abstract:
    Management of national forests evokes controversy about the allocation of limited resources among competing uses. A Land and Resource Management Plan (Forest Plan) has been prepared for the Payette National Forest. The Forest Plan describes resource management practices and the levels of resource production at which the Forest would be...

    Abstract:
    An extensive literature survey investigated methods and approaches for evaluating intangible economic factors at the strategic and tactical levels of managerial decision making. These sources provided: 1) the background for a theoretical decision making algorithm developed for comparing alternative economic proposals for effectiveness at the strategy levels, and 2) a...

  • Reducing Biogeochemical Models with an Automated Reduction Method

    Creator:
    Klee, Emily
    Abstract:
    Modeling elementary chemical reactions in ocean fluid dynamics simulations requires significant computing resources, which can be diminished with model reduction techniques. Submesoscale ocean turbulence and biogeochemical reactions in the ocean occur on approximately the same time scale, 105 seconds. This similarity in time scales indicates a strong coupling between these...

  • Subsistence variability in the Willamette Valley

    Creator:
    Havercroft, Francine M.
    Abstract:
    During the summer of 1981, Oregon State University archaeologically tested three prehistoric sites on the William L. Finley National Wildlife Refuge. Among the sites tested were typical Willamette Valley floodplain and adjacent upland sites. Most settlement-subsistence pattern models proposed for the Willamette Valley have been generated with data from the...
