Perceptual thresholds for foot slipping in animated characters

Creator:: Strawn, Jordan J.
Abstract:: The computer game industry continues to progress toward realistic-looking character motion. However, even in state-of-the-art games, the use of motion capture data in character animation may result in errors such as “foot slipping,” where the feet do not match up with the floor properly during translation. Various algorithms have been...

Investigation of the roles of viral proteinases in the vaccinia virus life cycle

Creator:: Page, Jessica M.
Abstract:: An inducible, mutant virus, designated vvtetO:I7L/G1L, was used to study the morphogenic proteolysis step of the vaccinia virus life cycle. The vvtetO:I7L/G1L controlled the expression of two genes, I7L, a cysteine proteinase, and G1L, a putative metalloproteinase. These proteins are involved in the maturation of viral core proteins, p4a, p4b,...

Studies on a transgenic approach to decrease gliadin content in wheat

Creator:: Bell, Shannon M.
Abstract:: Celiac disease, an autoimmune response triggered by the consumption of seed storage proteins of cereals, affects an estimated 1% of the human population. In the case of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), one of the world’s most consumed cereals, alcohol-soluble proteins, the gliadins, have been identified as the allergy-eliciting agents. Previous...

Patterns of age and growth in young-of-year rockfish, sebastes spp., along the Oregon coast

Creator:: Young, Thomas
Abstract:: Rockfish of the genus Sebastes are important components of Oregon reef communities. I examined patterns of age and growth in young-of-year rockfish across two nested spatial scales – local and regional – along the Oregon coast. Using otolith microstructural examination, I examined the relative importance of local versus regional factors...

It takes a village to manage the 21st century reference department

Creator:: McMillen, Paula S. and Rielly, Loretta
Abstract:: Reference services at Oregon State University’s Valley Library have undergone several reoganizations in response to institutional changes, shifting service needs and patron demands. Part of this history includes training for and functioning in team-based management. We have now evolved to a management model which utilizes workgroups and an advisory and...

Habitat monitoring : an approach for reporting status and trends for state comprehensive wildlife conservation strategies

Creator:: Schoonmaker, Peter and Luscombe, Wayne
Abstract:: This paper provides some background information on coarse to medium scale habitat monitoring techniques and proposes a framework for a statewide system. It is designed for state fish and wildlife agencies and their partners to help them meet the monitoring requirement in the development of wildlife strategies.

The face of Oregon's library community

Creator:: Webster, Janet G. and Cole, Maureen
Abstract:: One goal of the Oregon Library Association's Vision 2010 is to promote a strong and diverse workforce throughout all of the state's libraries. The forecasted shortage of librarians in the next decade prompted the OLA Board to request a demographic study of Oregon's libraries. A simple survey was adminstered at...

Experiments into plasma physics

Creator:: Smith, Christopher S.
Abstract:: Our research was focused mainly on the field of plasma physics and the creation of plasmas in a laboratory environment. We first began our project with the goal to develop a tabletop Tokamak, a doughnut shaped device that magnetically confines plasmas at pressures greater than one atmosphere. After researching this...
