Hydraulic experiments on impact forces from tsunami-driven debris

Creator:: Ko, Harrison T.
Abstract:: Impact by an idealized shipping container on a column were observed for tsunami flow in a large-scale wave flume modeled at the O.H. Hinsdale Wave Research Laboratory at Oregon State University. Two specimen types, aluminum and acrylic, were tested; and each specimen was tested in two orientations, longitudinal and transverse....

Tsunami and hurricane wave loads on bridge superstructures

Creator:: Azadbakht, Mohsen
Abstract:: This dissertation examines tsunami and hurricane wave loads on bridge superstructures. Tsunamis have caused significant damage to coastal communities in recent years. For example, the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake and resulting Tohoku Tsunami destroyed infrastructure along the east coast of Japan including bridge superstructures. Recent hurricanes have also caused...

Tsunami inundation : estimating damage and predicting flow properties

Creator:: Wiebe, Dane Michael
Abstract:: The 2004 Indian Ocean and 2011 Tohoku tsunami events have shown the destructive power of tsunami inundation to the constructed environment in addition to the tragic loss of life. A comparable event is expected for the Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ) which will impact the west coast of North America. Research...

Assessing the effectiveness and environmental impacts of using natural flocculants to manage turbidity

Creator:: Kegley, Laura J.
Abstract:: The objective of this research was to determine the feasibility of using chitosan as a natural flocculant to control turbidity during in-stream construction work. A series of field tests in Oak Creek, Corvallis, OR were conducted in order to test the effectiveness for turbidity control and the environmental impacts of...

Ecological Consequences of Marine Debris: Understanding Large-Scale Species Transport on Tsunami Debris and Research Priorities in Oregon

Creator:: Gillman, Reva A.
Abstract:: The release of marine debris into the oceans and seas is a global issue of growing concern. These materials are harmful to marine environments and can also transport non-native species to novel habitats. Non-native species floating on marine litter is one of the lesser known impacts associated with marine debris....

Factors influencing residual stand damage levels due to cable thinning of coniferous stands in western Oregon

Creator:: Caccavano, Michael P.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to determine the significant variables influencing the damage levels sustained by the residual stand after skyline thinning of coniferous stands. Damage levels were measured in ten study areas in western Oregon that had received their first commercial thinning. For this post-logging study, 38 units...

The effect of ration formulation on the subsequent generation of volatile gases and odors from bovine waste

Creator:: Kellems, Richard O.
Abstract:: The objective of this study was to determine the effect that ration formulation has on volatilization of gases and offensiveness of the odor associated with the wastes produced from Holstein replacement heifers. Six separate experiments were conducted to study the relationships between different variables on the release of hydrogen sulfide,...

The agronomic, environmental, and economic implications of the introduction of terbacil for weed control in Oregon commercial peppermint operations

Creator:: Harris, James O.
Abstract:: The use of terbacil for weed control was adapted by a high percentage of Oregon peppermint growers soon after its introduction in 1967. To help clarify some of the implications of terbacil usage, three studies were undertaken to collect information concerning (a) the movement and build-up of terbacil in various...
