Mechanical characterization of a simple gel in a prototype device that models a degenerative intervertebral disc

Creator:: Cenar, Yannick
Abstract:: A large part of low-back pain occurrences are due to disc herniation or prolapse of the nucleus pulposus. An alternative technique to existing treatments of low back pain includes nucleus pulposus replacement by an artificial material to relieve pain and restore normal function. To date, there has been a deficiency...

Characterization of the near-field flow structure of an acoustically self-excited jet in a large enclosure using particle image velocimetry (PIV)

Creator:: Tobias, Jason A.
Abstract:: An experimental study of the near-field flow structure produced by an incompressible turbulent Acoustically Self-Excited Jet (ASEJ) in a large enclosure using Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) is presented. The salient feature of this jet is that it provides an increase in near-field mixing and turbulence without additional external power input....

Transport of chloride ions during accelerated cathodic protection of reinforced concrete structures

Creator:: Rehani, Manu
Abstract:: Chloride ion migration was studied under accelerated cathodic protection conditions using 6" x 6" x 6" mortar blocks of varying initial chloride content and water to cement ratios. An iron mesh embedded parallel to one face in the blocks acted as the cathode and zinc was thermally sprayed on the...

Physicochemical properties of Alaska pollock surimi as affected by salinity and freeze-thaw cycles

Creator:: Kang, Ey Jung
Abstract:: The effects of the residual salt of surimi on biochemical and physical properties as affected by various freeze and thaw cycles were examined. Fresh Alaska pollock (Theragra chalcogramma) surimi was mixed with 4.0% sugar, and 5.0% sorbitol, along with eight combinations of salt (0.4, 0.6, 0.8, and 1.0 % NaCl)...

Numerical assessment of steel plate shear wall with coupling (SPSW-WC) system design procedure

Creator:: Li, Wennan
Abstract:: The Steel Plate Shear Wall (SPSW) system, is an innovative seismic lateral force resistant system, which has experienced increased use over the last three decades. The SPSW system is composed of boundary elements which anchor web plates that develop diagonal tension fields. A number of SPSW buildings have been built...

Puberty development and reproductive performance in beef heifers fed rations supplemented with Oregon by-product feeds

Creator:: Oswald, Keely E.
Abstract:: In the majority of management scenarios, it is imperative that beef replacement heifers calve at two years of age. In order to achieve this goal, yearling heifers should reach 60 to 65% of their mature body weight by 13 months of age. Feed costs represent 75 to 80% of the...

The phytosanitation of solid wood packaging materials using wood preservatives

Creator:: Schauwecker, Christoph F.
Abstract:: New species introductions have been associated with the movement of people for thousands of years. For instance, horses were introduced into North America by Spanish explorers, while pigs were introduced by the Polynesians into many Pacific islands long before the establishment of permanent European settlements. Both of these species introductions...

Experimental Evolution of Roundup Resistance in Outcrossing Populations of Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Creator:: Hanson, Chloe C.
Abstract:: Evolve & Resequence (E&R) experiments subject laboratory populations to environments controlled by investigators, who then document the phenotypic and genomic changes that take place over many generations. These experiments provide powerful tools for testing of a wide variety of evolutionary questions, especially questions about the nature of adaptive traits. While...

Determination of Total Nucleotides, Nitrogenous Bases and Degradation By-Products with Respect to Various Processing and Preservation Techniques for Alaska Pollock (Gadus chalcogrammus) and Yellowfin Sole (Limanada aspera)

Creator:: Nelson, Kevin A.
Abstract:: The primary goal of this research was to determine the concentration and composition of nucleotides, as nucleoside monophosphates and nucleobases, in the underutilized reproductive organs (milt and roe) of Alaska pollock (Gadus chalcogrammus) and yellowfin sole (Limanda aspera). Changes in concentrations of these nucleotides and nucleotide analogs were observed with...

Post-wildfire Investigation of Civil Infrastructure Following the 2018 Camp Fire

Creator:: Schulze, Stefanie S.
Abstract:: Wildland-urban interface (WUI) communities, where forested land boundaries or intermixes with infrastructure, are quickly growing in the US. WUI communities have grown substantially from 1990 to 2010, with an increase of 12.7 million houses and 25 million people. Wildfires encroaching on WUI communities can cause damage to both above ground...
