Automated Design of Foam Packaging Shapes

Creator:: So, David M.
Abstract:: Creating effective packaging is about finding a balance between product protection during shipping and time consumption in the design process. Given time and cost constraints, it is hard to produce sufficiently protective padding while having it not be thicker than it needs to be. This thesis describes a method to...

Use of CR-39 for nuclear criticality accident dosimetry and high neutron dose monitoring

Creator:: Tai, Lydia I.
Abstract:: CR-39 foils were irradiated as part of nuclear accident dosimetry experiments using the Godiva reactor at the Nevada National Security Site and the Caliban and Prospero reactors at the Valduc Centre for Nuclear Studies in France. The irradiated foils were chemically etched using the standard Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory process...

A comparison of measured and simulated exposure rates near tungsten-based medical transport pigs

Creator:: Newman, Errol D. I.
Abstract:: A lack of data concerning tungsten-based medical shields, specifically unit dose transport pigs, may lead to unnecessary exposure to medical personnel. Available research comparing lead to sintered tungsten shows that tungsten is approximately 1.5 - 10.0 times more effective as a radiation shield. However, this research lacks high-energy vs. low-energy...

Environmental influences on monoterpenes and phenolics of Mentha piperita

Creator:: Yao, Cheng C.
Abstract:: Vegetatively propagated peppermint (Mentha piperita L., cv. Black Mitcham) was used to determine the effects of night temperatures (8°C vs 25°C) on the plant growth in terms of fresh weight and leaf area, and on metabolite contents. The plants were sampled after 14 days, 21 days and 28 days in...

Stock Synthesis Assessments of Spatially Structured Fish Populations with an Environmental Driver on Recruitment Distribution : A Simulation Study and Discussion

Creator:: Denson, LaTreese S.
Abstract:: Stock assessments use statistical models and empirical data to re-create the population dynamics of a stock in order to provide estimates of biomass and fishing mortality rates to inform fisheries management. Fish stocks are not uniformly distributed across spatial regions, but stock assessments typically ignore stock spatial structure, for the...

Genetic diversity of populations of Astragalus oniciformis using inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers

Creator:: Alexander, J. Andrew
Abstract:: Astragalus oniciformis Barneby is a xerophyte of the sagebrush deserts of central Idaho. It is a narrow endemic of the upper Snake River Plains where it inhabits stabilized, aeolian sand deposits over Quaternary basalt flows. The objective of this study was to determine the levels and distribution of genetic differentiation...

Strengthening reinforced concrete beams using FRP composite fabrics : full-scale experimental studies and design concept verification

Creator:: McCurry, David D.
Abstract:: The Horsetail Creek Bridge (HCB), constructed in 1914, is located along the Historic Columbia River Highway in Oregon. The original cross beams from the HCB were substantially deficient in shear strength, particularly for the projected increase in traffic loads. One control beam and three beams with varying configurations of a...

Career participation or termination : perceptions and attitudes of women in dual-career families

Creator:: Adduci, Virginia
Abstract:: Statistics indicate that the number of dual-career couples, and thus dual-career women, has continued to increase (Holahan & Gilbert, 1979a; Jump, 1986; Maples, 1981; Sekaran, 1983). Very little is known, however, about how these women make their career-related decisions (Morgan & Hock, 1984). The major purpose of the present study...

Consumer interest by Oregon State University students in nutrition information on food labels

Creator:: Schoechle, Sabine
Abstract:: This exploratory study examined the degree of involvement of Oregon State University students in nutrition information. Specific objectives were to: (1) determine the relationship between, a) use of nutrition information, b) interest in nutrient information, c) satisfaction with the amount of information required by law, d) kinds of foods to...

Design Automation for 3D Circuits

Creator:: Velayati, Mohammad
Abstract:: Traditional electronic systems are usually fabricated via printed circuit boards (PCBs). In a regular PCB, the electronic components are placed and mounted on a two-dimensional board. Such a component layout limits the freedom in the component placement process which results in larger electronic devices. With the use of Additive Manufacturing...
