Why Use Ankles? An Optimization Approach to Discover Energetic Benefits of Ankles in Steady Locomotion

Creator:: Hector, Michael J.
Abstract:: Design and control of legged robots is a popular field in the pursuit of building robots that can be as mobile as humans. While much effort is put into understanding how to control the dynamics of these legs, less effort is focused on designing and controlling robot ankles. Ankles on...

What's that on the beach? Designing a Protocol for the Identification and Reporting of Stranded Marine Fish, Squid, and Turtles Using the Oregon Coast as a Proof-of-Concept

Creator:: Asson, Danielle and Asson, Danielle C.
Abstract:: It is not unusual to see stranded or washed-up marine animals and birds along any coastline. Various networks nationwide exist to report marine mammals and sea birds, yet, we have been unable to find a network in Oregon or nationally to report other stranded marine animals, namely fish, cephalopods, and...

Western Stemmed Tradition Technologies and Faunal Remains from a Terminal Pleistocene Pit Feature at the Cooper’s Ferry Site

Creator:: Paulson, Kirsten
Abstract:: Excavation of pit feature 110 (F110) at the Cooper’s Ferry site (10IH73) in central Idaho provides a unique snapshot of the domestic lifeways associated with the Western Stemmed Tradition (WST). Analysis was conducted of the F110 assemblage to better understand the function F110 served. The contents of F110 include Canis...

Weather and large waves along the Oregon coast: atmospheric controls on a numerical wave model

Creator:: Ellenson, Ashley N.
Abstract:: In this study, the effects of implementing different wind input or physics packages in a numerical wave model to recreate large wave conditions are explored. Three large wave events are simulated with WaveWatch III. The wind inputs which are compared are NCEP's Global Forecasting System (GFS) with 0.5 degree resolution...

Wave-by-wave Forecasting of Sea Surface Elevation for WEC Applications Utilizing NARX Neural Networks

Creator:: Gillespie, Alice
Abstract:: Forecasting of ocean waves over a short duration on the order of tens of seconds was approached with the optimization of wave energy conversion in mind. This study outlines the development of an artificial neural network model, specifically the Nonlinear Autoregressive Network with Exogenous Input (NARX), to predict a wave-by-wave...

Watershed modeling at Yucca Mountain, Nevada

Creator:: Britch, Michael J.
Abstract:: Studies are currently underway to determine the suitability of Yucca Mountain in Nevada as the nation's first high-level nuclear waste repository. Values of net infiltration are required to determine pre-waste emplacement groundwater travel times and the performance of the repository as a waste containment system. The objective of this study...

Wasco and Warm Springs Indian clothing for six periods between 1805 and 1976

Creator:: Altseimer-Tilson, Wendy Victoria
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was twofold. One purpose was to investigate the clothing worn by the adult members of the Wasco and Warm Springs Indians. Six periods of time were examined: Period I - 1805-1811 Period II - 1870's-1880's Period III - 1900-1905 Period IV - 1950's-192-0's Period 7...

Visualization and design systems for road infrastructure

Creator:: Esch, Gregory
Abstract:: Transportation infrastructure provides a vital service for the functionality of a city. The efficient design of road networks poses an interesting topic in computer science for digital content developers. For civil engineers, the visualization of analysis results on infrastructure both efficiently and intuitively is crucial. The following contributions are made...

Visualization and analysis of sensor data for detecting microclimate cold air pools

Creator:: Singh, Satpreet Harcharan
Abstract:: Cold air pools are spatiotemporal phenomena that occur when cold air from higher elevations roll down the slope to accumulate in lower elevations. Behaviors like this lead to microclimate anomalies such as the city of Corvallis (Oregon) experiencing persistent cold weather even on a sunny day. We analyze multivariate temperature...

Video Analysis : Techniques for Semi-Supervised Video Object Instance Segmentation and Tracking-by-Detection in the Wild

Creator:: Firl, Alrik K.
Abstract:: This thesis consists of two major components. The first part is concerned with video object instance segmentation (VOS), which is the task of assigning per-pixel labels perframe of a video sequence to indicate foreground object instance membership, given the first frame ground truth mask. VOS has myriad applications, from video...
