Oceanographic effects on the dynamics of food habits and growth condition of some groundfish species of the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Lee, Yong Woo
Abstract:: Marine fish are subject to direct and indirect oceanographic variations operating at short and long time scales. In this study feeding habits and long-term growth condition of several groundfish species of the Pacific Northwest are examined to understand the relationship between variations in the fish's biological and life history components...

Instruction fetching, scheduling, and forwarding in a dynamic multithreaded processor

Creator:: Browning, Adam W.
Abstract:: Dynamic multithreaded processors attempt to increase the performance of a single sequential program by dynamically extracting threads from sources such as loop iterations. The scheduling of instructions in such a processor plays a vital role in the amount of thread level parallelism that can be extracted and thus the overall...

The nonlinear optical properties of gallium arsenide pertaining to terahertz generation

Creator:: Hurlbut, Walter C.
Abstract:: Gallium arsenide shows excellent promise for terahertz generation using mid infrared. This is for two reasons. First, the indices of refraction for the terahertz (nTHz=3.61 at 1 THz) and mid infrared (nopt=3.431 at 2 μm) are close allowing a long interaction length. Second, the linear absorption is low at terahertz...

Generation of narrowband THz pulses and THz studies of ultrafast phenomena in semiconductor quantum wells

Creator:: Danielson, Jeremy R.
Abstract:: This work comprises two main parts: creating and shaping narrowband, pulsed THz radiation in a table-top optical setup; and applying THz pulses to semiconductor nanostructures to study electron dynamics. I developed a scheme to shape the THz output of a fanned-out periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) crystal. The pulses are...

Design considerations for a miniature atmospheric engine with a magnet-actuated autonomously-reciprocating in-cylinder regenerator for portable power production

Creator:: Yarger, David J.
Abstract:: Driven by the need for high energy-density power sources, demand has stimulated the development of small-scale engines. A small-scale engine with a fuel supply could replace batteries and utilize higher energy-density liquid hydrocarbon fuels; such an advance could deliver a new age of portable devices. Currently, operable small-scale engines exist;...

Boring to the Core: The Archaeology, History, and Dendrochronology of a Railroad Logging Camp, Ladee Flat, Clackamas County, Oregon

Creator:: Paullin, Pamela K.
Abstract:: Although the timber industry was the major economic force in the lives of several generations of Oregon families, very little archaeological investigation has been done on the dozens of abandoned logging camps that are scattered throughout the forests of the Pacific Northwest. This project focuses on Camp 1, a 1920s...

Generation and manipulation of THz waves

Creator:: Amer, Naaman
Abstract:: In this thesis I studied several THz components that can be used for potential THz technology. THz waves were generated in nonlinear medium via optical rectification of femtosecond optical pulses. Utilizing the phase matching condition between the optical and THz waves in a ZnTe crystal, single-cycle broad-band THz pulses were...

Chlordecone (CD), a mixed steroid X receptor (SXR) and estrogen receptor alpha(ERα) agonist, altered hepatic cholesterol (CH) homeostasis and lipoprotein metabolism

Creator:: Lee, Junga
Abstract:: Overtly non-toxic doses of organochlorine (OC) insecticides perturb lipid homeostasis in mice and rats. To increase understanding of how chlordecone (CD), an OC insecticide, modulates cholesterol (CH) homeostasis, we determined the effect of CD pretreatment on the tissue and hepatic subcellular distribution of exogenous [¹⁴C]CH. Corn oil alone or CD...

Unconditional estimating equation approaches for missing data

Creator:: Lu, Lin
Abstract:: Missing data can lead to biased and inefficient estimation if the missing mechanism is not taken into account in the analysis. In this dissertation we propose two estimators that, under fairly general conditions, are asymptotically unbiased. The first proposed estimator assume the data are missing at random (MAR) and does...

Life stories of high-risk white females teens : qualitative restrospective interviews with adolescents ten years after participation in a dropout and pregnancy prevention program

Creator:: Shaub, Tamara Lee
Abstract:: High rates and high costs of adolescent pregnancy and school dropout have resulted in the development of many prevention programs; however, little is known about the long-range effectiveness of efforts. Empirical research is needed to document behavioral outcomes over extended periods of time. I interviewed eight young white women who...

Development of solution-based reaction processes for micro- and nano-structured semiconductors

Creator:: Lee, Doo-Hyoung
Abstract:: The focus of this study is to develop a general and low-cost solution-based process to fabricate micro- and nano-structured semiconductors that are suitable for electronics. This process uses simple metal halide precursors dissolved in a solvent (organic or aqueous) and is capable of forming uniform and continuous thin films via...

Total synthesis of phorboxazole A

Creator:: Lee, Tae Hee
Abstract:: The total synthesis of a highly potent cytotoxic marine natural product, phorboxazole A, is described. Both a palladium(II)-mediated and a palladium(II)-catalyzed intramolecular alkoxycarbonylation were used as key steps for the preparation of the two cis-2,6-disubstituted tetrahydropyran rings (C22-C26 and C11-C15) of phorboxazole A. The synthesis used a convergent approach involving...

A Classification of Stone Features and an Examination of Their Positional Attributes

Creator:: Green, Phillip C. (Phillip Cody), 1950-
Abstract:: The analysis of prehistoric stone features has suffered for two separate but related reasons. The first is the lack of stringency in defining the terms attributed to these structures and, second, the perception of a lack of formal attributes exhibited by them. These two factors have made it impossible to...
