Priority asset utilization in parallel replacement analysis

Creator:: Wagner, Tristan John
Abstract:: Two policies for allocating individual assets from a pool of assets to incoming requests were contrasted within the context of replacement analysis. Assets within a pool are considered similar in the service they provide, but may differ in age and cumulative usage. The two policies considered for allocating assets to...

A Proposed Treatment System for the Remediation of Landfill Leachate Using Algae

Creator:: Myers, Shanna Grace
Abstract:: Landfill leachate is a complex wastewater that contains high levels of ammonium (often over 250 ppm) and trace heavy metals (usually under 0.2 ppm). Microalgae have been shown to inexpensively and effectively treat wastewaters containing high loads of organics and nutrients, as well as adsorb metal ions. This thesis focuses...

Classification and Analysis of Nucleotide - Nucleotide Interactions in RNA

Creator:: Rouches, Mason
Abstract:: Base-pairing interaction are the fundamental blocks of an RNA structure. With increased ability to determine the structure of RNA molecules, an accurate and informative way of classifying these interactions would help to study RNA structure at many levels. Apart from the well-known complementary base pairs and wobble pairs, other interactions...

A Needs Assessment Survey of Small Farmers in Oregon's Mid-Willamette Valley

Creator:: Wever, Erin L.
Abstract:: OSU Extension provides important educational services to members of the agricultural community. Programming options can be guided by needs assessment surveys, which are used to determine gaps in knowledge and understanding for communities. The objective of this study was to develop and execute a survey to gather information on: 1)...

Light Transmittance Properties of Biological Tissues of the Red-sided Garter Snake, Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis, Between 450 and 850 Nanometers

Creator:: Bixby, Eric M.
Abstract:: Using a spectrometer and photomultiplier tube, I measured the electromagnetic radiation transmittance properties of three types of tissue-- ventral skin, cardiac muscle, and liver tissue--in the red-sided garter snake Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis between the wavelengths of 450 and 850 nanometers (nm). Control readings were taken using a 10⁻² neutral density...

Repetitive DNA profiles in Bembidion (Coleoptera : Carabidae) show variation in genomic architecture within and between closely related species

Creator:: Barton, Lindsey M.
Abstract:: The ribosomal cistron (rDNA cistron) is a tandemly repeated region in the genome that encodes for the necessary subunits to form ribosomes, complex molecules responsible for the assembly of amino acids into proteins. They are found within all cellular organisms, and evolve at relatively constant rates, making them ideal for...

Scale Up & Optimization of the Liquid Carbon Dioxide Extraction of Orange Oil with Dry Ice

Creator:: Fraser-Hevlin, Brenden C. S.
Abstract:: Essential oils have numerous chemical and therapeutic applications. Some oil extraction methods, including steam distillation, require a large energy input. An alternative technique with a lower energy demand is the extraction of oils using supercritical liquid carbon dioxide (CO2), which extracts essential oils with minimal environmental impact. While this often...

Influence of Texting on Driver Glance Patterns and Vehicular Lane Position on Horizontal Curves

Creator:: Ellett, Makenzie A.
Abstract:: The use of in-vehicle technologies, such as mobile phones, while driving has proliferated in recent years. Most notably, drivers are using mobile phones to send and receive text messages while operating a vehicle with increasing frequency. The act of texting while driving poses a significant threat not only to the...

The Mathematics of Critical Shifts in Ecological Networks with Alternative Stable State Theory, A Potential Framework for Early Warning Indicators

Creator:: Kupperman, Michael D.
Abstract:: A long running problem in mathematical biology is the prediction of extinction events, a specialized case of the larger global stability problem found in differential equations and dynamical systems theory. A central technical question is how to introduce the randomness observed in real ecological systems not accounted for in deterministic...

Plasma enhanced growth of carbon nanotubes

Creator:: Ford, Neil I.
Abstract:: Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are grown using plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD). A modified radio frequency (RF) parallel-plate plasma etching system serves as the growth reactor. The effects of process parameters, including temperature, pressure, and C2H2:NH3 ratio, are studied. CNTs are grown on glass substrates with Al underlayers and Ni...
