  • A Computational Investigation of Natural Circulation Effects on Heat Transfer Coefficient and Friction Factor

    Creator:
    Buskirk, John
    Abstract:
    The nuclear industry has shown a large interest in natural circulation driven passive cooling systems following the Fukushima nuclear accident. Despite this interest, there is no widely used heat transfer correlation or friction factor correlation developed for natural circulation driven flow. A CFD analysis including grid convergence testing using Fluent...

  • Scootr Studio: Serverless on Wheels

    Creator:
    Hitchcock, Braden S.
    Abstract:
    Significant increases in the amount of data being streamed, collected, and processed have resulted in widespread adoption of the use of microservices to build scalable software applications. Unfortunately, current tools and frameworks are often insufficient at providing a simple, unified experience for the design, development, and deployment of microservices. They...

  • Why Anchor Forests? Exploring a Conceptual Framework for Tribal Leadership in Cross-boundary Forest Governance

    Creator:
    Jacobson, Meredith A.
    Abstract:
    In response to the increasing pace and scale of wildfire and forest health challenges, the Intertribal Timber Council (ITC) proposed the creation of “Anchor Forests,” where a tribe would convene surrounding landowners to collaboratively manage the entire landscape, across property boundaries. This emergent concept has sparked conversation but has not...

  • Consequences of Influenza A Virus on Pneumococcal Biofilm Formation and Stability in the Absence of Host Factors

    Creator:
    Nutter, Laura
    Abstract:
    Streptococcus pneumoniae and Influenza A Virus both primarily infect the upper respiratory tract, with more severe disease occurring during coinfection than would be caused by either pathogen independently. Until recently, characterization of the interactions between these two pathogens has occurred exclusively in the context of a host or using host-derived...

  • Classification of Native Vegetation of Oregon - 2019

    Creator:
    Kagan, James S., Brunner, Rachel L., and Christy, John A.
    Abstract:
    This classification is an update of the 2004 classification of native vegetation of Oregon by Kagan, Christy, Murray and Titus. As before, this classification lists the native plant associations known to occur in Oregon, and includes both successional and climax vegetation types that were part of the presettlement landscape of...

  • Equity in Community Forestry in the Western US

    Creator:
    McCaskill, Lauren S.
    Abstract:
    Community forestry is a decentralized form of forest governance that is widely promoted around the world. In the United States, community forestry is growing as a form of forest management, and exists across a range of ownership and governance models, all with different levels of community participation and access to...

  • Subsistence Harvest Diversity in Alaskan Food Sharing Networks

    Creator:
    Scaggs, Shane A.
    Abstract:
    Two striking characteristics of human beings are the diversity of resources that we use to sustain our lives and the extent to which we engage in coordinated, collective efforts to obtain and consume these resources. Together, these two characteristics are the foundation of human subsistence patterns. In many remote Alaskan...

  • Mid-Nineteenth Century Clay Smoking Pipes from Fort Hoskins (35BE15) and Fort Yamhill (35PO75), Oregon

    Creator:
    Zentgraf, Diane M.
    Abstract:
    Over the past 42 years clay smoking pipes have been excavated from two U.S. army posts, Fort Hoskins (35BE15) and Fort Yamhill (35PO75) and curated at Oregon State University. These two forts were established in Western Oregon in 1856 and by 1866 both had been decommissioned. Numerous theses have focused...

  • Modelling of an Array of Floating Oscillating Water Column Wave Energy Converters with Full Hydrodynamic Coupling and Nonlinear Power Take Off Dynamics

    Creator:
    Gaebele, Daniel T.
    Abstract:
    Wave energy is one of the most promising renewable energy sources. Thus, research in this field has increased substantially over the last decade. However, significant costs associated with development and maintenance have so far impeded the implementation of commercially viable projects. Furthermore, the hydrodynamic interactions between water and prototypes meant...

  • Place-based metrics guiding southwest urban forestry design

    Creator:
    Beshur, Athena D.
    Abstract:
    Through well designed tree placement, redundant use of simple technologies, and stewardship, trees grow. Over time, they mitigate stormwater flooding and enhance livability. This paper offers insights into precipitation patterns, and how small scale redundancy can help build the urban tree canopy. It is specifically geared toward issues in the...
