Cyclic electron flow : Powering unique motility and alternative nitrogen uptake in Synechococcus WH8102 during nitrogen limited growth

Creator:: Dittrich, Jake E.
Abstract:: Global atmospheric carbon levels are continuing to rise from pre-industrial revolution levels. One of the main regulators of global atmospheric carbon levels, and thus climate, is the world's oceans. Unicellular marine cyanobacteria account for a large percent of total marine carbon fixation. We measured chlorophyll-specific ¹⁴C uptake rates (P[superscript b])...

Cryogenic Single-Phase Heat Transfer in a Microscale Pin Fin Heat Sink

Creator:: Truong, Eric D.
Abstract:: A combined experimental and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) study of single-phase liquid nitrogen flow through a microscale pin-fin heat sink is presented. Such cryogenic heat sinks could find use in applications such as high performance computing, spacecraft thermal management, and hydrogen storage thermal management. A circular pin fin heat sink...

Mathematical Investigation of Evaporation Synergy in Bi-Texture Soil Columns as a Function of Column Width

Creator:: Sumner, Michael J.
Abstract:: Evaporation synergy is a phenomenon that occurs between different classes of soil and allows for a greater amount/quantity of soil water evaporation. 20 of the 66 soil texture class combinations have been shown to exhibit evaporation synergy (Fisher, 2012), however the impact of column width on the functionality of this...

Reasons Behind the Low Enrollment of Women in Computer Science

Creator:: Schneider, Ashley R.
Abstract:: Over the past few decades, the ratio of women to men in many traditionally maledominated fields has become much more equal. However, in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields the ratio has not improved at the same rate. In computer science the ratio is still very uneven. Today women...

Changes in Microbial Extracellular Enzyme Activity in Pacific Northwest Old-Growth Forest Soils After Wildfire

Creator:: Hughes, Abby
Abstract:: The soil microbiome drives nutrient transformation in forest soils and plays a critical role in the carbon (C) cycle of these ecosystems. Wildfires cause significant disturbance to ecosystems and are known to alter C sources available to microbes in forest soils. Summer wildfires in the Pacific Northwest are of growing...

Development of a remotely piloted aircraft for the Design/Build/Fly competition as a capstone engineering design project

Creator:: Wilcox, Joshua R.
Abstract:: The Design/Build/Fly competition (DBF) is an annual aerospace engineering competition hosted by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA). Oregon State University's AIAA chapter competed for the first time at DBF in 2013 and finished in the top 25% which is a respectable finish for a first year team....

The Design, Manufacturing, and Testing of an Undertray for Formula SAE

Creator:: Dang, Victor Q.
Abstract:: A student-built lap time simulation coupled with the scoring model of the Formula Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) Series has revealed the major importance of downforce on overall points. As a result, the Global Formula Racing (GFR) team has recently focused much effort towards the development of an aerodynamics package...

Mothers and Caretakers’ Perception of Childhood Eye Care In the Ashanti Region of Ghana

Creator:: Lowe, Lianna M.
Abstract:: According to the World Health Organization, there are an estimated 1.4 million blind children in the world, of whom approximately 300,000 live in Africa. About one-half of these cases of childhood blindness could have been prevented. Each year, an estimated half a million children become blind (nearly one per minute),...

Sequencing the Mitochondrial Genome of the Common Milkweed: Asclepias syriaca

Creator:: Edwards, Christopher A.
Abstract:: Few plant mitochondrial genomes have been published to date because of their structural complexity and difficulties in their physical isolation. Plant mitochondrial genomes are known to have a high level of heteroplasmy and can exist as several different circular or linear strands. Sequencing additional mitochondrial genomes will help to understand...

Feasibility of developing wine grape pomace fortified baked goods for health promotion

Creator:: Walker, Rebecca M.
Abstract:: Wine grape pomace (WGP) as a source of antioxidant dietary fiber was used to fortify bread and muffins bakery goods. Pinot Noir wine grape pomace (RWGP) and Pinot Grigio wine grape pomace (WWGP) replaced wheat flour at concentration between 5-20% (w/w). The finished bread and muffin products were evaluated for...
