Modeling System Effects and Structural Load Paths in a Wood-Framed Structure

Creator:: Martin, Kenneth G., Gupta, Rakesh, Prevatt, David O., Datin, Peter L., and van de Lindt, John W.
Abstract:: The objective of this project was to evaluate system effects and further define load paths within a light-frame wood structure under extreme wind events. The three-dimensional 30- by 40-ft (9.1- by 12.2-m) building, designed to be representative of typical light-frame wood construction in the southeastern coastal region of the United...

Database-assisted design methodology to predict wind-induced structural behavior of a light-framed wood building

Creator:: Mensah, Akwasi F., Datin, Peter L., Prevatt, David O., Gupta, Rakesh, and van de Lindt, John W.
Abstract:: This study investigates the applicability of the database-assisted design (DAD) methodology to predict structural reactions in a light-framed wood structure subjected to fluctuating wind pressures. Structural influence functions were determined on a 1/3-scale light-frame wood structure, which was then subjected to a wind flow, while the surface pressures and structural...

Biotic barriers to colonizing new hosts by the cinnabar moth Tyria jacobaeae (L.)(Lepidoptera: Arctiidae)

Creator:: Karacetin, Evrim
Abstract:: The cinnabar moth (Tyria jacobaeae (L.), Lepidoptera: Arctiidae) is an icon in population ecology and biological control that has recently lost its shine based on evidence that (1) it is less effective than alternatives (such as the ragwort flea beetle Longitarsus jacobaeae (Waterhouse) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) for controlling ragwort Senecio jacobaea...

A georeferenced digital image analysis of micro-topographic patterns within the Willamette Floodplain Research Natural Area, W. L. Finley National Wildlife Refuge

Creator:: Anderson, Karen L.
Abstract:: The present day vegetation pattern of the Willamette Valley is a result of a long past of human alteration of the landscape. Beginning with aboriginal burning of the grasslands to present day land uses, the vegetation of the valley has been affected by anthropogenic activity. Wet prairie is a vanishing...

The Art of Reducing Coastal Hazard Complexity: Coupling Physics and Probability to Understand Extremes, Variability, and Climate-dependence

Creator:: Anderson, Dylan L.
Abstract:: Coastal hazards are the result of numerous physical processes cumulatively causing water levels to flood and erode the land. The waves, storm surges, tides, and run-off contributing to elevated water levels are each the product of chaotic and random weather patterns. These stochastic weather patterns dissipate energy in Earth's climate...

Assessing physical vulnerability of the coast in light of a changing climate : an integrated, multi-hazard, multi-timescale approach

Creator:: Harris, Erica L.
Abstract:: Hazards threaten coastal communities and ecosystems over a wide range of spatiotemporal scales. One of the most pressing concerns for coastal property owners, decision makers, and researchers is the uncertain role that a changing climate will have on the intensity and frequency of these hazards. The significant uncertainties associated with...

The application of John Rawls' principles of justice to health care distribution in the United States

Creator:: Wetle, Victoria L.
Abstract:: The principles of justice developed by John Rawls and articulated in his work A Theory of Justice, published in 1971, were used as the evaluative tool in assessing health care distribution in the United States. A model for using Rawls' theory was developed emphasizing the role of the 'least advantaged'...
