  • The Influence of Hip Abduction, Extension, and External Rotation Rate of Torque Development on Frontal-Plane Biomechanics during Single-Leg Jump-Cuts

    Creator:
    Cronin, Baker
    Abstract:
    Anterior cruciate ligament injuries are relatively common in female athletes with greater frontal plane knee motion and loading during a landing task predictive of injury. As a result, decreasing knee abduction motion and loading is important for ACL injury prevention. While increased strength of the hip abductors, extensors, and external...

  • Historical land use and its impact on Oak Creek, Oregon

    Creator:
    Yamaguchi, Keiko, 1964-
    Abstract:
    The purposes of this study were:1) to review the land use history of Oak Creek watershed since European settlement. And 2) to consider the human-caused impacts and their effects associated with different land uses. The study area was classified into three land use patterns: residential,agricultural, and forested areas.Since the European...

  • Conditioning bunchgrass on elk winter range

    Creator:
    Westenskow, Kathy Jo
    Abstract:
    Research was conducted near the Starkey Experimental Forest and Range in northeastern Oregon. Effects of defoliating bluebunch wheatgrass (Agropyron spicatum (Pursh) Scribn. and Smith) to increase the quality of regrowth available on elk (Cervus elaphus nelsoni) winter range were studied from 1988 through 1990. Clipping treatments were implemented to condition...

  • Pyrenophora tritici-repentis : investigation of factors that contribute to pathogenicity

    Creator:
    Holman, Thomas W.
    Abstract:
    Pyrenophora tritici-repentis (Ptr) is the necrotrophic fungus responsible for tan spot of wheat (Triticum aestivum). Ptr causes disease on susceptible wheat cultivars through the production and secretion of host-selective toxins (HSTs). HSTs are compounds that are only known to be produced by fungi and considered to be primary determinants of...

  • Inelastic stiffness moduli for nail joints between wood studs and plywood sheathing

    Creator:
    Loferski, Joseph R.
    Abstract:
    Defining the inelastic behavior of nail joints is essential in the development of a rational design procedure of wood-stud walls. Prediction equations were developed for the inelastic behavior of joints commonly found in wood-stud walls. The equations relate three elastic moduli that define the average inelastic joint stiffness to the...
