Perceptual thresholds for foot slipping in animated characters

Creator:: Strawn, Jordan J.
Abstract:: The computer game industry continues to progress toward realistic-looking character motion. However, even in state-of-the-art games, the use of motion capture data in character animation may result in errors such as “foot slipping,” where the feet do not match up with the floor properly during translation. Various algorithms have been...

Developing a Qualitative Assessment Instrument to Measure Conceptualization of Oppression and Privilege

Creator:: Johnson, Rachel M.
Abstract:: An understanding of oppression and privilege would improve engineering climates and encourage individuals with marginalized identities to stay engaged in engineering spaces. Currently there are quantitative tools to assess cultural competencies, but none that measure understandings of power relationships. This project aims to create a qualitative assessment instrument to measure...

“Don’t Choke ‘Em, Smoke ‘Em” : Lloyd “Tony” Stevenson and the Long Reach of History in “Post-Racial” Portland

Creator:: Ewens, Elise N.
Abstract:: Despite Portland’s progressive reputation, the response of city officials, police officers, and the community as a whole to the killing of the black man, Lloyd Stevenson, in 1985 at the hands of Portland police, demonstrates that the long racially discriminatory history of Oregon shaped public policy and popular thought about...

Examining the Human Relevance of a New Mouse Model of ALS and Observations on the Incidence in Human Populations

Creator:: Winkenbach, Lindsay
Abstract:: Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a relatively rare neurodegenerative disorder that is fatal 2-4 years after the onset of the disease. Population studies are being done in order to help reveal candidates for further studies of disease etiology, disease progression, as well as to further understand racial and ethnic variations....

Relationship between rate of torque development and contractile impulse in three muscle groups

Creator:: Wright, Jaime M.
Abstract:: Background: The capability of an individual to produce force rapidly is important for performance of sporting activities and to stabilize a joint to protect against injury. Rate of torque development (RTD) and contractile impulse (CI) may be more effective than peak torque in assessing rapid torque production. The relationship between...

Kit Ligand Effect on Growth of Bovine Follicles in Culture and the Effect of Kit Ligand on the Function of Theca Cells

Creator:: Jachter, Shaina L.
Abstract:: Ovarian steroidogenesis is heavily controlled by the formation and function of the theca cells. A condition known as polycystic ovarian disease in humans and cystic ovarian disease in cattle is due to abnormal steroidogenesis. Knowing more about theca cell formation and function can aid in gaining further knowledge about polycystic...

Effects of wildfire on soil hydraulic properties on hillslopes in southwestern Oregon

Creator:: Cole, Ryan
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of wildfire on soil hydraulic properties of forested hillslopes. The study site was located within the Stouts Creek wildfire, which burned approximately 10,705 ha of forest in southwestern Oregon in summer 2015. Three soil hydraulic properties (soil moisture, unsaturated hydraulic...

Drone Strikes : The Moral, Political, and Legal Implications of the Changing Character of War

Creator:: Khalife, Ryan A.
Abstract:: Drone strikes have become a defining strategy in the US War on Terror. Since the first combat drone strike in 2001, the executive branch has intentionally increased the deployment of drones for counterterrorism operations throughout the Middle East and North Africa. This thesis explores the moral and legal justifications for...

Patterns of age and growth in young-of-year rockfish, sebastes spp., along the Oregon coast

Creator:: Young, Thomas
Abstract:: Rockfish of the genus Sebastes are important components of Oregon reef communities. I examined patterns of age and growth in young-of-year rockfish across two nested spatial scales – local and regional – along the Oregon coast. Using otolith microstructural examination, I examined the relative importance of local versus regional factors...
