The Canadian two-year college foundation : characteristics of success

Creator:: Mucklow, William R.
Abstract:: This study investigated the relationship between various demographic, structural, organizational, and operational factors and the success of nonprofit foundations affiliated with two-year technical and community colleges in Canada. Three aspects were specifically examined: (1) a descriptive analysis of the two-year technical and community college foundation in Canada; (2) Pearson product-moment...

Ultimate and serviceability limit state reliability-based axial capacity of deep foundations

Creator:: Reddy, Seth C.
Abstract:: Deep foundations are necessary for the construction of many structures, such as bridges and buildings, located in areas unsuitable for shallow foundations. Owing to the inherent variability of soil and the complex changes that occur in the soil adjacent to deep foundations as they are installed, the ability to accurately...

Experimental and analytical evaluation of conventionally reinforced deck-girder bridge bent caps with vintage details

Creator:: Senturk, Ahmet Ekin
Abstract:: Many conventionally reinforced concrete deck girder (RCDG) bridges were built in the US during the 1950s, throughout the expansion of the Interstate System. Designs followed the AASHO standard of the time, which permitted higher shear stress in concrete and reduced detailing requirements than permitted by current specifications. Many of these...

The effects of increased supply and emerging technologies in the forest products industry on rural communities in the northwest U.S.

Creator:: Crandall, Mindy S.
Abstract:: The development of a market for currently non-merchantable forest material, such as harvest residues of tops and limbs of trees or small diameter trees, has been suggested as a possible win-win solution that could: (i) provide a financial incentive to help motivate treatments to reduce wildfire risk or restore forest...

Weather as an influencing factor in the use of Oregon's coastal recreation areas

Creator:: Rense, William Childs, 1944-
Abstract:: The role of weather in influencing tourist-recreation visitation to the Oregon coast during the six-month summer season of May through October has been investigated by this research. In addition, the normal day-to-day fluctuations in coastal visitation has been determined. Based upon the normal visitation, the tourist-recreation season on Oregon's coast...

California condors in the Pacific Northwest : integrating history, molecular ecology, and spatial modeling for reintroduction planning

Creator:: D'Elia, Jesse
Abstract:: Reintroduction programs are increasingly being used to save animals from extinction and aid in their recovery. The California Condor (Gymnogyps californianus), one of the most endangered birds in the world, is a remarkable example of how reintroduction programs can help rapidly increase a species' population numbers and range following a...

Coastal Dune Ecology, Geomorphology, and Ecosystem Services : How Invasive Beachgrasses, their Interactions, and Sediment Dynamics Shape U.S. Pacific Northwest Dunes

Creator:: Biel, Reuben G.
Abstract:: Biological invasions and climate change represent two preeminent threats to ecological communities and biodiversity, altering the distribution and abundance of species, disrupting existing species interactions and forming unprecedented ones, and creating novel ecological communities. Many of the most successful invasive species are also ecosystem engineers, species that physically modify the...

Reliability-based Serviceability Limit State Design Procedures for Shallow Foundations

Creator:: Huffman, Jonathan C.
Abstract:: Reliability-based geotechnical foundation design focusses on soil and structure analysis that meets necessary safety, performance and/or serviceability criteria, calibrated based on probabilistic analyses and an accepted level of risk. As the civil engineering community seeks to better harmonize geotechnical and structural design methodologies, reliability-based design is being incorporated more into...

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...
