An evaluation of Oregon Youth Conservation Corps 1996 summer programs

Creator:: Miller, Marc S.
Abstract:: The Oregon Youth Conservation Corps (OYCC) is a youth work program created by the Oregon Legislature in 1987. The OYCC provides both summer and year-round employment programs primarily for disadvantaged and at-risk youth. The legislatively defined purpose of the OYCC is to protect, conserve, and improve the natural, historical, and...

A Comparison of Frontal and Transverse Plane Kinematics in Level versus Downhill Running

Creator:: Thompson, Gretchen
Abstract:: Iliotibial (IT) band syndrome is a common overuse injury which affects many runners and can result in needing to take time off from running to alleviate symptoms or allow the injury to heal. Common biomechanical characteristics of those affected by IT band syndrome include increased hip adduction, knee varus, and...

Use of Virtual Visual Sensors in the Determination of Natural Frequencies of Timber Structures for Structural Health Monitoring

Creator:: Walker, Kristopher
Abstract:: Many nondestructive techniques for structural health monitoring are subjective and based on visual observations of degradation. In addition, dynamic properties of structures are already used to obtain quantitative structural health data. However, most current data collection is limited to localized damage on the structure, rather than global response. Recent research...

Molecular characterization of Wnt/beta-catenin signaling in early equine osteochondrosis, Molecular characterization of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in early equine osteochondrosis

Creator:: Kinsley, Marc
Abstract:: The objective of this study was to elucidate the expression of signaling molecules associated with the Wnt signaling pathway in cartilage of prepubescent foals and determine their association with chondrocytes located at the osteochondral junction and cartilage canals. Our hypothesis was that increased expression of the components of the Wnt...

Persistence of spatial distribution patterns of coastal cutthroat trout in a Cascade mountain stream

Creator:: Novick, Marc S.
Abstract:: Previous research in South Fork Hinkle Creek suggested that coastal cutthroat trout exhibit an aggregated spatial pattern across multiple spatial scales. To evaluate the persistence of the observed abundance patterns and identify factors that affect those patterns, half-duplex passive integrated transponders (PIT-tags) were implanted in 320 coastal cutthroat trout (>...

Influence of maternal instinct stimulated by calf contact on the hormonal induction of lactation in the bovine

Creator:: Bel Isle, Dennis Marc
Abstract:: An experiment was conducted to determine the effect a newborn calf would have on initial success rate, lactation performance, infertility and progesterone levels during mammogenesis and lactogenesis in dairy cows undergoing hormonal inducement to lactate. Fourteen Holstein, Brown Swiss and Jersey infertile, non-lactating cows, loaned by Pacific Northwest dairymen, were...

Economic evaluation of alternative agricultural resources conservation policies

Creator:: Ogishi, Aya
Abstract:: The agriculture production system in the post-war United States is characterized as highly specialized and increasingly dependent on off-farm inputs. Although the US has traditionally supported agriculture with numerous government commodity programs such as target prices, nonrecourse loans, and deficiency payments, agriculture today is perceived as one of the major...

Transportation network connectivity, facilities encouraging walkability, and crime

Creator:: Bornasal, Floraliza B.
Abstract:: This thesis explores the relationship between crime, transportation network connectivity, and engineered facilities built to increase walkability through a case study of twenty-five sites within the city of Spokane, Washington. Using data spanning between 2008 and 2010, the author developed a GIS model representing conditions of the built environment, social...

Exploring Civil Engineering Undergraduate and Practitioners’ Performance on Strength of Materials Concept Inventory

Creator:: Sanchez, Dominga
Abstract:: Preparing successful engineering undergraduate students for the workforce is imperative and requires students to apply their conceptual understanding of engineering fundamentals to engineering design work. Conceptual understanding is assessed through the use of concept inventories. Learning theories may help explain differences in concept inventory performance. Expert novice theory suggests that...

Hip loading during the squat exercise

Creator:: Haberly, Gabriel J.
Abstract:: Hip fractures have high mortality and morbidity rates after incidence, with osteoporosis being a major risk factor due to the loss of bone mineral density (BMD). Lower-body resistance exercises, such as squats, can provide sufficient loading on the hip to induce osteogenic effects. However, this loading may depend on how...
