  • A Graph Grammar Representation of Metal-Organic Frameworks for Computational Synthesis and Exploration

    Creator:
    Geringer, Mark K.
    Abstract:
    In this work, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are computationally represented, generated, and evaluated. The organic linker molecules are represented as graphs and use graph grammars where the atoms are represented by nodes and the bonds are represented by arcs. The grammar rules that dictate the graph generation process work on the...

  • Classifying the toxicity of pesticides to honey bees via support vector machines with random walk graph kernels

    Creator:
    Yang, Ping
    Abstract:
    Pesticides benefit agriculture by increasing crop yield, quality, and security. However, pesticides may inadvertently harm bees, which are valuable as pollinators. Thus, candidate pesticides in development pipelines must be assessed for toxicity to bees. Leveraging a data set of 382 molecules with toxicity labels from honey bee exposure experiments, we...

  • Novel Approaches to Porous Material Discovery

    Creator:
    Sturluson, Arni
    Abstract:
    Uses for materials with a large surface area and high porosity have grown sig-nificantly in recent years. Porous materials have found usage in applications such as separation, gas storage, sensing, purification and more, prompting researchers to find and discover numerous new porous materials to suit a specific purpose. Hundreds of...

  • Characterization of acid sensing ion channel (ASIC) in mouse olfactory bulb

    Creator:
    Kratzer, Eric Martin
    Abstract:
    This study examined the role of acid- sensing ion channels (ASICs) in interneuron synaptic modulation. ASICS are ultra fine discriminators of acidic conditions in the neuronal microenvironment. Each ASIC subunit isoform has innate, subtly different electrophysiological properties and tissue distributions. Structurally, ASICs may form homo- or heteromeric channels, yielding combinatorial...

  • Effectiveness of an educational health promotion program on influencing physical activity behaviors in individuals with mobility disabilities

    Creator:
    Pawlowski, Jill K.
    Abstract:
    Participation in regular physical activity is important for individuals with a mobility disability to decrease risk of chronic disease, improve quality of life, and maintain and improve functional ability. Consequently, there is a need for programs that can facilitate the adoption and maintenance of regular physical activity for adults with...

  • Providing the best turbulent heat flux estimates from eddy correlation and bulk methods using DYNAMO data

    Creator:
    Marion, June Raven
    Abstract:
    In this thesis, data collected during the Dynamics of the Madden Julian Oscillation (DYNAMO) field campaign, conducted in the Indian Ocean in Fall of 2011, is used to compute heat fluxes at the air-sea interface by evaluating eddy covariances and bulk aerodynamic formulae. Errors in daily average gridded fluxes computed...

  • Marine Low Clouds : Radiation, Turbulence, and Forecasting

    Creator:
    Verlinden, Kathryn L.
    Abstract:
    High-resolution ship-based observations of a nearly uniform stratocumulus deck in the southeast Pacific during 17 days of the 2008 VOCALS regional experiment elucidate radiation and turbulence in the marine boundary layer (MBL). A new method for prescribing observations-based cloud properties to the Rapid Radiative Transfer Model is presented and applied...

  • Exploring physical activity behaviors in adults with spina bifida : a mixed methods approach

    Creator:
    Vanderbom, Kerri Ayame
    Abstract:
    Background: Spina bifida (SB) is the most common birth defect, affecting approximately 1 to 2 in 10,000 live births. SB is a complex disability with many associated, secondary, and chronic conditions that require lifelong medical care. Individuals with spina bifida (SB) are living longer with advances in medical care, and...

  • Converting forest biomass to energy in Oregon : stakeholder perspectives on a growing movement

    Creator:
    Stidham, Melanie
    Abstract:
    Within Oregon there is considerable interest in the possibility of converting woody biomass to energy. This interest stems from three converging factors: the desire to reduce the threat of uncharacteristic wildfire by removing excess material from the forests, the possibility to stimulate rural economies that are dependent on forest products,...
