An analysis of well water quality and local residents' perceptions of drinking water quality in the southern Willamette Valley

Creator:: Kite-Powell, Aaron C.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to; (1) determine the extent of well water contamination with nitrate and pesticides, and to understand the relationships among nitrate, pesticide, dissolved chloride, dissolved sulfate, well age, and well depth in the southern Willamette Valley, Oregon; and, (2) to investigate local residents' perceptions and...

Chassis Design for the Global Formula Racing Team

Creator:: Powell, Zach L.
Abstract:: For the 2019 season, a new chassis layup was designed that is much stronger than in previous years, yet only slightly heavier. Compared to the baseline steel tube frame, the 2019 chassis has safety factors of about 110% for most zones. Also, a new impact attenuator was designed that absorbs...

Creator:: Knotts, L. William
Abstract:: In a story of his life Les reflects on what he has gained and what he has lost while seeking success in the moving and shifting of military and academic life through homes and schools all over the United States. He describes himself as between races, languages, and cultures.

How Nearshore Currents affect Larval Dispersal and Genetic Connectivity of China Rockfish (Sebastes nebulosus) Along Oregon and Washington Coasts

Creator:: Avila, Alexandra M.
Abstract:: Connectivity of fish populations is a crucial question for fisheries conservation and the development of spatial management plans. Both adult and larval movement define the extent and direction of ecological and evolutionary overlap between geographic regions and, therefore, how we define stocks for management purposes. Within that context, my work...

Response Sensitivity Formulations for Geometrically Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis

Creator:: Al-Aukaily, Alabbas
Abstract:: Significant amounts of uncertainty owing to both modeling decisions and inherent randomness are present in simulating the material and geometric nonlinear response of structural systems to extreme loading. Computing the sensitivity of structural response with respect to model parameters indicates which parameters have the largest affect on the response, which...

Biophysical properties of the turnip yellow mosaic virus explored by coat protein mutagenesis

Creator:: Powell, Joshua D.
Abstract:: Plant viruses have been instrumental in our understanding of the biophysical properties pertaining to non-enveloped icosahedral virus particles. A substantial amount of research has been performed over five decades on Turnip yellow mosaic virus (TYMV), arguably one of the most extensively studied icosahedral plant viruses and the type-member of the...

Heat shock proteins and physiological stress in redband rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss gairdneri) in the South Fork John Day River, Oregon

Creator:: Feldhaus, Joseph W.
Abstract:: The goal of this research was to characterize thermal habitat requirements for juvenile redband steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss gairdneri) in the South Fork John Day River (SFJD), Oregon using physiological indicators of fish condition. Physiological indices of fish condition measured were whole body lipid content and heat shock proteins, specifically...

Parametric uncertainties in reliability analysis of bridge structures

Creator:: Hamutcuoglu, Osman Murat
Abstract:: Probability-based reliability methods have placed an increased emphasis on realistic simulation of structural behavior in bridge engineering. Uncertainty is present in every aspect of structural analysis. Aleatory uncertainties in the loading and load-carrying capacities, and epistemic uncertainties in mathematical idealization of bridge systems are the major contributors to uncertain structural...

Function of Oregon Estuaries to Juvenile Fishes, with Focus on Juvenile Rockfishes (Sebastes spp.) in Yaquina Bay, Oregon

Creator:: Schwartzkopf, Brittany D.
Abstract:: The role that anthropogenic and natural habitats in estuaries play in long-term population trends for Oregon’s nearshore marine fishes is poorly understood, in part due to limited temporal sampling. One important nearshore marine group is northeastern Pacific rockfishes (Sebastes spp.), which are highly diverse, with around 96 documented species, and...
