  • Beginning the search for the inverse fission of uranium

    Creator:
    Beckerman, John R.
    Abstract:
    The nuclear reaction ¹⁰⁰Mo(¹²⁴Sn,xn)[superscript 224-x]U has been carried out at E[subscript cot] of 578 MeV and 634 MeV using the facilities and equipment at the Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam Facility (HRIBF) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) in order to initiate the search for the inverse fission of uranium.

  • Cultural controls for suppressing Phytophthora cinnamomi root rot of blueberry

    Creator:
    Yeo, John R.
    Abstract:
    Phytophthora cinnamomi is a soilborne pathogen that causes root rot disease of highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.). When new installations of susceptible blueberry cultivars are infected with P. cinnamomi, plants often fail to grow significant new tissue, greatly reducing yields over the life of the planting. Chemical fungicides are available...

  • G, a language based on demand-driven stream evaluations

    Creator:
    Placer, John R.
    Abstract:
    A programming paradigm can be defined as a model or an approach employed in solving a problem. The results of the research described in this document demonstrate that it is possible to unite several different programming paradigms into a single linguistic framework. The imperative, procedural, applicative, lambda-free, relational, logic and...

  • Evaluation of horizontal axis wind turbine blade loads using unsteady aerodynamics

    Creator:
    Hartin, John R.
    Abstract:
    Most existing analyses of the blade loads on horizontal axis wind turbines are conducted using linear steady-state aerodynamics, but evaluation of loads resulting from wind turbulence or gusts may not be adequate using these techniques. This study develops single-parameter approximations for both the shed wake and trailing wake components of...

  • Direct-sampling optical techniques for the study of transient combustion events

    Creator:
    Herron, John R.
    Abstract:
    Techniques have been developed for measuring the temperature, stable species concentrations, and atomic radical concentrations during a transient combustion event. They combine the features of direct sampling with two spectroscopic techniques to produce relatively simple diagnostic techniques to obtain time-resolved measurements. In this study, a transient event was provided by...

  • An investigation of the measurement of individual risk attitudes

    Creator:
    Winter, John R.
    Abstract:
    Two direct elicitation of utility (D.E.U.) techniques were used to estimate risk attitudes of a group of agricultural producers. The two elicitation techniques used in the study were 1) an error-in-response model using a modified Ramsey method, and 2) stochastic dominance with respect to a function (SDF). The primary objective...

  • An economic analysis of land prices of mountainous grazing land in eastern Oregon

    Creator:
    Winter, John R.
    Abstract:
    The "unusual" behavior of agricultural land prices is the subject of considerable debate and controversy and is the object of this research. There is little doubt that land prices have been increasing steadily since 1959 and dramatically throughout the decade of the 1970's. However, there is widespread disagreement among economists,...

  • Influence of 2,4-dichlorophenol on the flavor of fish

    Creator:
    Palensky, John R.
    Abstract:
    A laboratory investigation was performed to determine the influence of 2,4-dichlorophenol on the flavor of fish. The study was conducted at the Oak Creek Fisheries Laboratory of the Department of Fisheries and Wildlife, Oregon State University. The three experimental apparatus used in this study were designed to deliver 250 ml/min...
