Removing Residual Lane Markings to Reduce Driver Confusion

Creator:: Weber, Jane B.
Abstract:: When pavement markings on roadways are removed, scarring can occur leaving behind traces of where the marking used to be called ghost lines. These ghost lines can confuse drivers on the roadway and divert their attention from the correct lane markings leading them into the false lane. Previous research has...

An Exploration of the Ecological and Geographical Variability of Rhizopus microsporus Clinical and Environmental Isolates

Creator:: Stairs, Brandon S.
Abstract:: Rhizopus microsporus is a globally ubiquitous opportunistic human and plant pathogen that is known to harbor endosymbiotic bacteria. Differences between populations of clinical and environmental R. microsporus isolates have yet to be assessed on a global scale. Whole-genome sequence data were used to explore fungal biology and to assess potential...

Performance-Based Design Methodology for Using Emergent Vegetation to Mitigate Wave Overtopping

Creator:: Ostrow, Kayla
Abstract:: To facilitate the design of Natural and Nature-Based Features (NNBF) for flood protection, this thesis expands an existing engineering design methodology to NNBF systems. The existing approach is a Level III reliability method for the performance-based design of traditional coastal engineering systems. The expanded methodology incorporates uncertainties inherent to both...

The Number of Lanes and Crash Injury Severities of Commercial Motor Vehicle Drivers: Advanced Econometric Models and Applications

Creator:: Kim, Jaekook
Abstract:: Considering the deadly impacts of commercial motor vehicle (CMV) crashes on road safety, many previous studies have put in efforts to find the determinants of CMV crash injury severities. However, studies examining the impact of the different number of lanes on CMV crash injury severities are lacking. Besides, the importance...

Vegetation composition and response to fire of native Willamette Valley wetland prairies

Creator:: Pendergrass, Kathy L. (Connelly)
Abstract:: Fires set by Native Americans were important in shaping and maintaining Willamette Valley prairie plant communities. With fire exclusion after Euro-American settlement in the 1840's, composition of the remaining prairies shifted toward shrub and tree dominance with a concomitant decline in endemic prairie plant populations. I hypothesize that by restoring...

Formal Verification of the Variational Database Management System

Creator:: Khan, Fariba
Abstract:: Variation in data is abundant and ubiquitous in real-world applications. Managing variation in databases is, however, difficult and has been extensively studied by the database community. Schema evolution, data integration, and database versioning are examples of well-studied forms of database variation with effective context-specific solutions. However, variation appears in different...

Diving into Diversity: Fish Populations and Climate Resilience in an Endorheic Basin

Creator:: Dew, Aleah
Abstract:: The Goose Lake Basin, situated on the border of Oregon and California, USA, faces significant challenges from drought, wildfire, and other environmental stressors. This region hosts numerous endemic fish species such as the Goose Lake redband trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss newberri), Goose Lake lamprey (Entosphenus sp.), Goose Lake tui chub (Siphateles...

Precision Medicine for the Intervertebral Disc: Image Processing and Computational Modeling of Disc Degeneration to Inform Patient-Specific Therapies

Creator:: Ahrens, Sonia R.
Abstract:: The human intervertebral disc is a deceptively simple structure which plays an essential role in human movement. Even slight changes to the disc microenvironment can have far reaching consequences, particularly when these changes result in disc degeneration and herniation. Degeneration is increasingly tied to lower back pain; better understanding this...

The Role of Emotional Narratives in Fostering Water Nationalism. The Case of the Southeastern Anatolia Project (GAP) in Turkey

Creator:: Arynova, Aigul
Abstract:: This study explores the role of emotions in extensive hydraulic projects that become part of nation-state building processes and have transboundary impact. The main objective is to investigate how political leadership uses emotional narratives to foster water nationalism in the case of the Southeastern Anatolian Project (GAP) in Turkey. The...
