An Analysis of Driver's Visual Attention When Exposed to Roadside Drone Operations

Creator:: Sova, Alden
Abstract:: Drones are being used increasingly in the transportation sector for roadside applications such as surveying, structural inspection, and traffic monitoring, which raises distraction concerns for drivers. This study examines the visual attention of a group of Oregon drivers to determine drones’ potential as distracting roadside elements. Eye tracking data was...

Assessing variation in coyote (Canis latrans) diet across three sagebrush steppe sites with different levels of juniper encroachment

Creator:: Kendall, Zachary D.
Abstract:: Juniper (Juniperus spp.) encroachment into the sagebrush steppe ecoregion is one of the main causes of sagebrush degradation and can alter the understory vegetative community by outcompeting native shrubs and grasses, which reduces the available forage and cover for small mammals. Coyotes (Canis latrans) are generalist, omnivorous predators in the...

Application of a weighted Dice Similarity Coefficient (DSC) for Structure Comparison in Radiation Treatment Planning

Creator:: Fried, Zachary
Abstract:: Coded metrics that compare representations of structures within the human body to evaluate their similarity are considered useful for planning radiation therapy on cancer targets. However, existing metrics fail to take into account the dose of radiation that will be received by both the target, and surrounding non-target tissue, during...

Analysis, design, and implementation of a Formula SAE cooling system

Creator:: Theroff, Zachary
Abstract:: This project consists of the analysis, design, and manufacturing of the 2016 cooling system for Global Formula Racing’s combustion vehicle. Several water configurations were examined, using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to estimate airflow and heat transfer calculations in MATLAB to estimate heat rejection through each concept. Data used to perform...

Comparative descriptive analysis of the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) to climate change mitigation and adaptation by Costa Rica and México

Creator:: Pinard, Zachary J.
Abstract:: Under the Paris Agreement, parties submitted documents outlining their commitments to climate change mitigation and adaptation, called Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), which are set to be updated to increase ambition by 2020. Costa Rica and México are known for their significant national actions on climate change, so comparing these two...

Evidence of work engagement and its link to performance in lean manufacturing implementation

Creator:: Fairman, Zachary J.
Abstract:: Work engagement is demonstrated when employees are involved with, committed to, enthusiastic, and passionate about their work. The goal of this study was to summarize relevant information on work engagement, produce a working coding system to identify evidence of work engagement, and discuss the implications of work engagement on an...

A Vector–Host Model for Coinfection by Barley/Cereal Yellow Dwarf Viruses

Creator:: Leung, Margaret-Rose W.
Abstract:: Barley and cereal yellow dwarf viruses (B/CYDV) are a suite of aphid-vectored pathogens that affect diverse host communities, including economically important crops. Coinfection of a single host by multiple strains of B/CYDV can result in elevated virulence, incidence, and transmission rates. We develop a model for a single host, two...

Radiation Emissions from Turbulent Premixed Jet-A/Air Flames Diluted with Combustion Products

Creator:: Hoter, Zohar R.
Abstract:: Heat flux measurements of radiation emissions from turbulent premixed flames diluted with N 2 and CO 2 were taken to identify sensitivities of radiation heat loss to diluent fraction and species. This work is motivated by the desire to better characterise radiant heat transfer in the presence of combustion products,...

Factors Contributing to the Development of Body Fat In Growing Boys and Girls

Creator:: Lovemark, Courtney
Abstract:: The prevalence of overweight and obesity in children and adolescents continues to rise and is considered a major public health problem. The aim of this investigation was to evaluate the contributions of sport participation, and calcium intake (controlling for mean energy intake, sex, and maturation status) on the development of...

Validation of Predicted Functional Transcription Factor Binding Sites in Arabidopsis thaliana

Creator:: Ozguc, Olivia R.
Abstract:: Gene expression is largely regulated by the binding of transcription factors to short sequences of DNA (transcription factor binding sites) to drive or repress transcription of an adjacent gene. Identifying the key transcription factor binding sites associated with a particular biological outcome provides an avenue for tailored transcriptional regulation in...
