  • A quantitative index for evaluation of plant layout alternatives

    Creator:
    Pond, James Woodrow Jr.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this study is to develop a workable plant layout evaluation technique incorporating adequate definitive measures of intangible plant layout considerations. A summary and critique is given of existing evaluation methods. A quantitative evaluation index (QEI) is proposed to remedy the described deficiencies. The proposed index can be...

  • The role of inertial oscillations in the dynamics of coastal upwelling

    Creator:
    Pelegri, Jose L.
    Abstract:
    A finite difference scheme is employed to solve the integral form of the momentum, continuity and heat equations, for a two layer ocean bounded by a coastline. The momentum equations include the turbulent dynamics and the time-dependent and nonlinear terms in both the cross-shelf and alongshelf directions. The system of...

  • A turbulence model applied to the diurnal cycle

    Creator:
    Halliwell, Vicki M.
    Abstract:
    Under light wind conditions, the alternation of daytime heating and nighttime cooling creates a characteristic response in the oceanic boundary layer known as the diurnal cycle. The Mellor/Yamada Level II turbulence closure model is used to analyze this response pattern. The diurnal cycle has three phases. During morning and early...

  • Diet selection by conditioned and unconditioned goats in the sagebrush steppe of Eastern Oregon

    Creator:
    Richman, Lesley M.
    Abstract:
    This research examined the diets of angora goats on a sagebrush bunchgrass rangeland. Research objectives were to 1) determine the effects of a positive conditioning method on both mature and immature angora goats; and 2) to quantify plant selection and provide preliminary information as to the potential for using goats...

  • Design and implementation of a simplified Kalman filter for an ocean circulation model

    Creator:
    Yao, Yunda
    Abstract:
    A Kalman filter was developed to recover information on short period variations of ocean circulation from the satellite altimeter signals for the North Pacific Ocean. The ocean circulation at each grid point is specified by three variables: sea level height h, zonal velocity u, and meridional velocity v. In our...
