Numerical design of a high-flux microchannel solar receiver

Creator:: Rymal, Charles
Abstract:: This thesis discusses the design of several microchannel solar receiver devices for use in CSP (concentrated solar power) using CFD (computational fluid dynamics) simulations. The goal is to demonstrate that, by taking advantage of the higher heat transfer coefficienct of microchannels, solar receivers can achieve higher efficiency than current receiver...

Development of a test procedure for water sensitivity of asphalt concrete mixtures

Creator:: Al-Swailmi, Saleh H.
Abstract:: Environmental factors such as temperature, air, and water can have a profound effect on the durability of asphalt concrete mixtures. In mild climates where good quality aggregates and asphalt cement are available, the major contribution to deterioration may be due to traffic loading and the resultant distress is manifested in...

Pyrethroid insecticide interaction with the GABAA receptor and the peripheral-type benzodiazepine receptor of rainbow trout brain

Creator:: Eshleman, Amy J.
Abstract:: The peripheral-type benzodiazepine receptor (PTBR) of trout brain was pharmacologically characterized and pyrethroid interaction with this site investigated. High-affinity binding sites for [³H]PK 11195 were detected in brain membranes of rainbow trout; these shared some of the characteristics of the PTBR of rodent brain (i.e., high affinity for PK 11195...

Effects of Preinoculation with VAM fungi isolated from different sites on plant tolerance to salinity in soils amended with sodium chloride

Creator:: Cantrell, Isabella Cardona
Abstract:: The hypothesis that inoculation of transplants with vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) fungi before planting into saline soils would alleviate salt effects on growth and productivity was tested on lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) and onion (Allium cepa L.). A secondary hypothesis was that the fungi isolated from a saline soil would be...

Effects of fiber electrostatic cling and moisture regain on Timothy grass pollen attraction

Creator:: Vaughn, Reyna J.
Abstract:: People will spend a large amount of their lifetime indoors where the air is filled with both indoor and outdoor allergens. Exposure to allergens can have a range of effects on the health of building occupants. Textiles make up a vast majority of the surfaces, such as draperies, sofas, pillows,...

Flavin-containing monooxygenase, tissue specific regulation in rabbit

Creator:: Lee, Min-young
Resource Type:: Dissertation
Full Text:: Mammalian Flavin-Containing Monooxygenase (FMO, EC 1.14.13.8) is a flavoprotein, which oxygenates a wide

Evaluation of selected marginal aggregates stabilized with cement

Creator:: Chang, Chen
Abstract:: Coastal Oregon is deficient in quality construction aggregate. There is, however, an abundance of lower quality, or marginal aggregate available for construction purposes. The purpose of this report is to develop techniques for upgrading marginal aggregates with portland cement and methods for evaluating the relative performance of these stabilized materials...

New chemistry for electrochemical energy storage applications

Creator:: Wang, Xingfeng
Abstract:: Electrochemical capacitors and batteries are two major electrochemical energy storage technologies, which have been investigated extensively to meet the rapidly-growing demand for higher energy, higher power, lower cost and enhanced safety in the past few decades. With the charge storage mechanism of electrostatic charge adsorption desorption via electrical double layers,...

Utilization for a triple-layer phoswich detector for beta spectral stripping

Creator:: Alkhudhiri, Bandar
Abstract:: To quantify the relative activity contributions of beta emitters in mixed emission source spectra, the triple-layer phoswich detector was modeled to generate beta energy absorption spectra from mixed beta sources. These mixed sources include four pure beta emitters (C-14, Tc-99, Sr-90, and Y-90). Monte Carlo N-Particle (MCNP) computer code was...
