  • Innovative Coaching in Intercollegiate Athletics : Advocating for Cultural Responsiveness

    Creator:
    Thompson, Mitchell D.
    Abstract:
    It has been established that intercollegiate sport is an important social institution for student athletes of color in the United States (Coakley, 2012). White intercollegiate coaches have a prominent influence on the academic, athletic, social and emotional development of student athletes and therefore must be tuned into variation in cultural...

  • Overstory Growth, Structural Development, and Regeneration Success Following Uneven-Aged Conversion Treatments in Douglas-fir Plantation of the Cascade Range in Oregon

    Creator:
    Marcum, Sean R.
    Abstract:
    Uneven-aged management has been suggested as a method for balancing biodiversity conservation and wood production goals from managed forests in a variety of regions. In coastal Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) forests of the Pacific Northwest, implementation of uneven-aged management is hindered by a lack of experience with uneven-aged silvicultural systems, including...

  • SIMstat: Wireless, Highly-Reconfigurable Electrochemical Analog Front-End for Point-of-Care Diagnostics and Continuous Monitoring

    Creator:
    Cook, Jacob M.
    Abstract:
    Within the past decade, the continued-scaling of CMOS processes and improvements in industry mixed-signal integrated-circuit designs have enabled a rapid decrease in the cost, form-factor, and power for point-of-care diagnostics and electrochemical instrumentation. Similarly, advances in low-power RF designs have prompted entire System-on-Modules supporting widely varied Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications. The...

  • Automated Design of Foam Packaging Shapes

    Creator:
    So, David M.
    Abstract:
    Creating effective packaging is about finding a balance between product protection during shipping and time consumption in the design process. Given time and cost constraints, it is hard to produce sufficiently protective padding while having it not be thicker than it needs to be. This thesis describes a method to...

  • Diversity and abundance of birds across a hardwood gradient in early seral Douglas-fir plantations

    Creator:
    Ellis, Tana M.
    Abstract:
    Recent evidence suggests that population declines of some avian species may be driven primarily by reduced quantity and diversity of early-successional habitat on the breeding grounds. Increasing intensity of forest management on private lands and decreased harvest rates on federal lands has resulted in a loss of the diverse early-successional...

  • Design, Layout, and Testing of a Printed Circuit Board for Cyclic Voltammetry

    Creator:
    Harper, Karen
    Abstract:
    This project concerns the design, layout, assembly, debugging, and testing of a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) that autonomously, reliably, and effectively conducts Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) measurements. CV is an electrochemical procedure done to analyze, quantize, and visualize reversible reduction-oxidation reactions, often used in medical devices to monitor the levels of...

  • Closing the Gap : Using Theory to Analyze the African American Division 1 Football Player Graduation Gap

    Creator:
    Smith, Dorian
    Abstract:
    African American male students are a small portion of the student body at NCAA Division 1-A schools, but they make up a large portion of population of college football players. African American male college students are also one of the most at-risk student populations on campus in regards to retention....

  • Characterization of Mitochondrial Metabolism in L6 Rat Myoblasts

    Creator:
    Burney, Emily R.
    Abstract:
    The prevalence of obesity is increasing worldwide, causing a subsequent increase in insulin resistance (IR), metabolic disorders, and cardiovascular diseases. Although these conditions significantly impact both the individual and society, their etiologies have not been discovered, inhibiting potential prevention and treatment. Alterations to mitochondrial metabolism are implicated in the development...

  • Automated Tradeoff Analysis of Cost Versus Machinability for Design Feedback

    Creator:
    Grier, Alan Thomas
    Abstract:
    As CAD tools become more sophisticated, engineers are able to more easily create complex part geometries with minimal mass given strength and stiffness requirements. However, these complex part geometries can be difficult to subtractively manufacture, which consequently increases manufacturing cost and production time. This thesis presents a method independent of...

  • Design and Modeling Techniques for Impedance Based Flow Cytometry

    Creator:
    Dawes, Jacob
    Abstract:
    Microfluidic devices have enabled lab-on-a-chip (LOC) systems that allow for complex sample analysis and preparation in a compact form factor. One technology that may benefit from a microfluidic approach and further miniaturization is flow cytometry. Flow cytometry is an analysis technique for enumerating and characterizing populations of cells; this is...
