  • Comparison of eye plaque dosimetry using deterministic and Monte Carlo methods

    Creator:
    Bristol, Jonathan R.
    Abstract:
    Eye plaque brachytherapy is an established technique for the treatment of ocular melanoma that allows for the preservation of the affected eye as well as visual function. A common treatment planning system for eye plaque procedures, Plaque Simulator (PS), assists physicists in calculating the radiation dose to the tumor and...

    Bristol, Benjanmin R.
    Abstract:
    The OSU MASLWR Test facility is a scaled integral systems LOCA and proof-of-concept test facility for the Multi-Application Small Light Water Reactor design concept. A unique feature of this design is to utilize a small high pressure containment vessel to provide the safety containment function for an integral reactor pressure...

  • Information and analysis techniques for making crop selection decisions

    Creator:
    Bristol, Roger Dale
    Abstract:
    Twenty managers of large diversified irrigated farms in the Willamette Valley area of Oregon were interviewed about the economic information and analysis techniques they use when making crop selection decisions. Two community college farm management instructors, two agricultural lenders, and two certified public accountants working with farmers were interviewed about...

  • Spatial and Temporal Dynamics of Eulachon (Thaleichthys pacificus) in Northern Southeast Alaska

    Creator:
    Pochardt, Meredith R.
    Abstract:
    In Southeast Alaska, Eulachon (Thaleichthys pacificus) are a culturally and biologically important anadromous fish. Eulachon populations have significantly declined in the southern part of their range, and in 2010 eulachon in northern California, Oregon, and Washington were listed as a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act. In the same...

  • Effects of Stage 0 Stream Restoration on Aquatic Macroinvertebrate Production

    Creator:
    Jennings, Jeremy C.
    Abstract:
    Contemporary stream restoration efforts increasingly prioritize restoring natural stream processes to regain lost ecosystem functions. Stage 0 stream restoration resets disturbed, channelized streams to a theoretical pre-disturbance state (“stage zero”). It is assumed that this valley-scale restoration/disturbance will restore natural abiotic and biotic processes, leading to greater primary and secondary...

  • ATRIAS 1.0 & 2.1 : enabling agile biped locomotion with a template-driven approach to robot design

    Creator:
    Grimes, Jesse A.
    Abstract:
    Practical bipedal robots need to be simultaneously efficient, robust, and versatile machines, but designing robots dynamically capable of these demands has been a significant bottleneck. We designed ATRIAS to be a highly dynamic biped capable of both walking and running untethered in real environments. To meet these goals, ATRIAS is...

  • Collaborative filtering with probability and collaborative filtering with privacy

    Creator:
    Yang, Min
    Abstract:
    "Collaborative filtering has seen considerable success in the areas regarding information overload and e-commerce, while the current developed systems are flawed in several respects. Two approaches, the distribution-based algorithm and the blurring profile solution, are proposed to address several outstanding issues. The main findings of this research include: • The...

  • How to Render Mathematical Symbols in Java

    Creator:
    Sun, Yuemei
    Abstract:
    Current math software provides limited interactivity and dynamics when conveying math ideas. We are developing prototype Java toolkits to display math-embedded documents in a more dynamic and interactive way. The core task of current project is to create a Java implementation of a MathML (in which a math expression is...

  • The Cost of Caring: An Exploratory Study of the Professional Quality of Life of Early-Career SBAE Teachers in Oregon

    Creator:
    Schmidt, Kirby J.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this research is to describe the secondary traumatic stress (STS) levels of early career school based agriculture (SBAE) teachers. Using the professional quality of life (ProQOL) scale (Stamm, 2010) as a theoretical framework, secondary traumatic stress, burnout (BO) and compassion satisfaction (CS) levels were measured among (n...
