Analysis and simulation of dual-source heat pumps with three-fluid evaporators

Creator:: Lee, Jai-hyo
Abstract:: When the ambient temperature drops, air-source heat pumps deliver less heating per unit of power input and usually cannot provide for the heating load. Therefore, dual-source heat pumps can offer an attractive alternative. In the context of this work, a dual-source heat pump operates as an air-source unit under normal...

A numerical study of solid fuel combustion in a moving bed

Creator:: Ko, Daekwun
Abstract:: Coal continues to be burned by direct combustion in packed or moving bed in small size domestic furnaces, medium size industrial furnaces, as well as small power stations. Recent stringent restrictions on exhaust emissions call for a better understanding of the process of combustion of coal in beds. The present...

Population dynamics, annual food consumption, movements, and dive behaviors of harbor seals, Phoca vitulina richardis, in Oregon

Creator:: Harvey, James T. (James Thomas)
Abstract:: Number of harbor seals, counted on 32 haul-out areas in Oregon, increased by 6 - 8.8 % per year from 1975 - 1983. Percent of seals in bays has increased an average 1.8%/year, from 47% in 1975 to 61% in 1983. Along the central Oregon coast, harbor seals were most...

Linking Moral Obligations, Assumption-based Research, and Structured Decision Making to Inform Bull Trout Recovery

Creator:: Brignon, William R.
Abstract:: More than 1500 species of plants and animals in the United States are listed as threatened or endangered under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). The U.S. Departments of Interior and Commerce are required, under Section 4(f)(1) of the ESA, to develop recovery plans for ESA-listed species under the respective agency...

Land use distributions and changes in the Willamette Valley in relation to soil characteristics

Creator:: Wiens, John Herbert
Abstract:: A study was undertaken in the Willamette Valley, Oregon, to document 1971 land use patterns as well as land use change in a smaller study area in the 16 years prior, and to relate these to soil characteristics. Quantification of these inter-relationships was aided by use of computer tabulation and...

A composite-beam finite element for seismic analysis of wood-framed buildings

Creator:: Lee, Chyuan-shen
Abstract:: A computer program called SAPWOOD which possesses the capability of performing linear or nonlinear, static or dynamic response including seismic excitation for wood-framed buildings with semirigid connection systems is presented in this study. Program SAPWOOD is a modification of the program NONSAP by adding new elements such as a linkage...

Deterministic and stochastic behaviors of a piecewise-linear system

Creator:: Mha, Ho-Seong
Abstract:: The (nonlinear) response behavior of a piecewise-linear system is investigated under both deterministic and stochastic excitations in this study. A semi-analytical procedure is developed to predict the system behavior by evaluating the joint probability density functions of the Fokker-Planck equations of the stochastic piecewise-linear system under random excitations via a...

Failure analysis of pre-notched composite laminated plates under four-point bending conditions

Creator:: Arias Gonzales, Sergio
Abstract:: Ever since composite laminate technology was introduced into the aerospace and automotive industry, there has been a need to fully understand the damage progression experienced by composite laminated plates in the presence of a notch. While numerous research studies have been conducted on this matter when subjected to in-plane loads,...

A study of a counseling practicum in facilitating the self-actualizing process

Creator:: Phillips, John MacKenzie
Abstract:: The problem of this study was to determine whether graduate students in education (the experimentals) participating in a counseling practicum would demonstrate a change in self-actualization which would be significantly different when compared with other graduate students in education (the comparisons) who were not participating in the above program. The...
