Creator:: Elgin, Robert C., III
Abstract:: Given the current abundant supply and cheap price of natural gas (NG) in the United States, there is a significant opportunity to use this fuel for transportation. However, there are few fueling stations for consumers. To address this need, a dual-mode engine has been developed where in one mode all...

Creator:: Hinz, Robert C.
Abstract:: The propagation characteristics of a new coupled fin line structure, with asymetrical, rectangular, top and bottom housings, is evaluated by using the modal analysis technique. The boundary Green's function of the structure, relating the surface currents to the electric fields is derived by using this technique. The propagation characteristics, i.e....

Creator:: Gaynor, Robert C.
Abstract:: Increasing grain yield in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a challenging task, because yield is a complex trait controlled by many genes and highly influenced by environmental factors. The genetic control of yield components and other traits associated with yield may be less complex and thus more manageable for breeding....

Creator:: Paeth, Robert C.
Abstract:: An investigation was conducted to determine the origin of Mima mounds in Jackson County, Oregon and Thurston County, Washington. Data on soil morphology, mineralogy, and particle size distribution were used to test the periglacial ice wedge hypothesis, the gopher hypothesis, the erosional hypothesis, and the loess hypothesis. The results of...

Creator:: Harmon, Robert C.
Abstract:: Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is a burgeoning field with its roots in geography. It is increasingly being used by a large variety of disciplines, including land use planning, as a decision support tool to help solve complex spatial problems. At Oregon State University, researchers have developed an analog model which...

Creator:: Fonner, Robert C.
Abstract:: Changes in consumer preferences have created a need for developing differentiated and higher valued seafood products. Providing consumers with more information about seafood products at the time of purchase has been suggested as a way of differentiating seafood and promoting healthy fisheries. A discrete choice experiment conducted at high-end grocery...

Creator:: Roberts, Michael C. (Michael Coy), 1951-
Abstract:: Farmers and researchers are aware of spatial variation in grain yield within farms or fields. Fertilizer management may be improved if techniques can be developed to identify grain yield variations in wheat fields. Aerial color infrared (CIR) photography was used to identify winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) canopy biomass variability...
