Measuring innovativeness in the North American softwood sawmilling industry

Creator:: Knowles, Christopher David
Abstract:: Innovativeness, or the propensity of a firm to create and/or adopt new products, process and business systems, has been measured using several methods in previous research. Examples of theses methods include current technology, self-evaluation, research and development funding, the number of new products, and intellectual property. In addition to the...

Exploring Embodied Gender Identities in Steven Universe

Creator:: Painter, Stephanie
Abstract:: Steven Universe, a relatively new show from Cartoon Network, explores an unexpectedly complex understanding of gender through their main protagonists. Utilizing Judith Butler’s work on gender performativity and doing gender, as well as Daniel Dennett’s conception of the self as a theorist’s fiction, and Alexander Weheliye’s understanding of power and...

A Novel Elysium

Creator:: Anderson, Evan Crichton
Abstract:: As a metafictional work of science fiction literature, A Novel Elysium explores the timelessness of both the human mind and its literary surroundings, comparing the self-awareness of its characters to the sometimes tragic or empowering metaphysical realizations of human beings. Within this framework, any concrete place or time is unimportant;...

The Knee That Shook America: A Case Study of Colin Kaepernick and Historical Analysis of Protest

Creator:: Okonkwo, Charles
Abstract:: America is said to be the land of the free and the home of the brave. With the unfair treatment of people of color in this country, however, one would believe that somewhere in the fine print, they were excluded from that phrase. The very foundation of this country was...

Valuing Coastal Risk with Revealed and Stated Preference Methods

Creator:: Hadziomerspahic, Amila
Abstract:: Developed coastlines provide a variety of recreation opportunities to coastal residents and visitors but are also the first line of defense for oceanfront development against chronic hazards like erosion and sea level rise. In the Pacific Northwest of the United States, oceanfront homes also face an additional severe but very...

Big huckleberry (Vaccinium membranaceum Dougl.) ecology and forest succession, Mt. Hood National Forest and Warm Springs Indian Reservation, Oregon

Creator:: Anzinger, Dawn
Abstract:: This thesis is an observational study that examines relationships between disturbance, forest stand development, and big huckleberry (Vaccinium membranaceum) fruit productivity and growth by combining ecological methods with the traditional ecological knowledge of Warm Springs ceremonial huckleberry pickers. Shrub fields of fruiting big huckleberry develop in early seral subalpine environments...

Special Nuclear Material Analysis Using Temporal Gamma-Ray Spectroscopy and Machine Learning Methods

Creator:: Curtis, Jessica R.
Abstract:: Following thermal neutron induced fission, supervised machine learning and temporal gamma-ray spectroscopy methods were used to identify differences in the delayed gamma-ray spectra of Pu-239 and U-235. The temporal gamma-ray spectroscopy method takes advantage of the time-dependent decay of fission products. Employing Spearman's rank-order correlation coefficient and without prior knowledge...

Transforming Protective Action Strategies for Radiological Emergencies—Exacting the Science of Sheltering-in-Place

Creator:: Smith, Todd R.
Abstract:: Radiological emergency plans ensure that protective actions can and will be taken in the event of an accident. Principle protective actions for the early phase of an emergency are evacuation and sheltering-in-place. While evacuations are generally safe, there are deterministic, long-term health consequences from prolonged displacement that outweigh the stochastic...

Creating Anthropomorphic Models with Mesh Phantoms in MCNP to Simulate Mammography

Creator:: Garcia, Jacqueline K.
Abstract:: Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women as it accounts for about 25% of all female cancer cases. Studies have shown that early detection of breast cancer increases the chances of a positive prognosis amongst patients therefore it is crucial to provide accurate diagnosis tools in routine exams....

SCALE 6 (TRITON) Simulations of Fission Product Gamma Line Emissions and their Comparison to Plutonium and Uranium Measurements

Creator:: Sanchez, Timothy J.
Abstract:: Thin foil samples of special nuclear materials (SNMs) were irradiated for 60s using a Mark TRIGA II reactor, and their associated gamma emissions were recorded with a count time of 60s following irradiation. A rapid pneumatic transfer system was used to irradiate the samples in front of beam port #4....
