A study of self-concept among Mexican-American/Chicano(a) students attending community colleges and four-year institutions of higher education in Oregon

Creator:: Villarroel, Luz E. Maciel de
Abstract:: The purpose of this research was to do a comparative study of the self-concept of Mexican-American/Chicano(a) students enrolled in two- and four-year institutions of higher education in western Oregon during the 1985-1986 academic year. The secondary purposes of the research were: 1) To ascertain if there were any significant differences...

Targeted development of antivirals against influenza A and respiratory syncytial virus

Creator:: Lupfer, Christopher
Abstract:: Influenza A and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) are both enveloped, negative strand RNA viruses which infect the respiratory mucosa of animals and humans. Despite decades of research and development of antivirals and vaccines, both of these viruses continue to be a major health concern throughout the world. The focus of...

Developmental neurobehavioral toxicity of bisphenol A in zebrafish (Danio rerio)

Creator:: Saili, Katerine Schletz
Abstract:: Billions of pounds of bisphenol A (BPA) are produced annually around the globe for the manufacture of numerous consumer products, including polycarbonate food and water containers, the protective resin linings of food cans, thermal printing paper, and dental fillings. BPA exposure during nervous system development has been associated with learning...

Energy efficient communication across on-chip wires in digital CMOS

Creator:: Postman, Jacob
Abstract:: For the past half century, CMOS process scaling has followed Moore's law, approximately doubling transistor density every 18 months. While locally routed wires have generally scaled with transistor size, longer wires have scaled at a slower rate and in some cases have grown larger as chip size and complexity have...

Experimental Investigation of the Transition to Natural Convection in HTGR Applications using the Oregon State SFSETF

Creator:: Fishler, Joshua D.
Abstract:: High Temperature Gas Reactors (HTGRs) are positioned to disrupt local and global markets via their unique ability to produce carbon-free process heat, high efficiency power generation, and passively safe operational features. However, significant impediments still exist to delay deployment of this particular technology, including a lack of experimental data, verified...

Development of a grid-scale energy storage solution via demand response using model predictive control of multiple residential water heaters

Creator:: Halamay, Douglas A.
Abstract:: As the growth of renewable energy sources, such as wind, solar, and ocean wave, increases, their impact on the electrical grid has been rapidly escalating. Although renewable resources have been able to offset some traditional generation, they have also brought a need for increasing reserve capacity due to their non-dispatchable,...

Development of two-variable maximum power point tracking control for ocean wave energy converters utilizing a power analysis and data acquisition system

Creator:: Amon, Ean A.
Abstract:: Ocean wave energy shows great potential as a developing form of renewable energy. However, challenges arise in maturing this technology to achieve cost-effective energy conversion. Development and testing of wave energy converters can be problematic due to the harsh environment in which they are operated. To promote development of this...

A methodology to enable wind farm automatic generation control

Creator:: Han, Hai-Yue
Abstract:: Over the last decade the increase in penetration of wind power and its variable nature has begun to add considerable stress to and threatened the stability of the nation's grid. In order to continue growth wind farms will need to have the ability to participate in the same grid frequency...

Development and Experimental Hardware Validation of Novel Variable Speed Hydropower Control Schemes for Emerging Applications and Water Resource Paradigms

Creator:: Starrett, Michael A.
Abstract:: Recent opportunities for new hydropower generation in the United States have often been in non-powered dams and run-of-river type flows occurring in low-impact natural areas and unregulated conduits. At the same time, a changing water resource paradigm is challenging some existing generation in drought stricken areas where supply reservoirs behind...

Evaluating the seismic risk and resilience of an electrical power system

Creator:: Chalishazar, Vishvas H.
Abstract:: The Pacific Northwest is part of the "Ring of Fire," which is well-known for heavy seismic activity. Numerous active faults in the area have encouraged electric grid managers in the region to more deeply contemplate and proactively intervene to support grid resilience. This research introduces Monte Carlo (MC) based power...
