  • Stress at deformations beyond the elastic limit for compression perpendicular to the grain in hem-fir

    Creator:
    McLaughlin, Edward J.
    Abstract:
    Allowable stresses in compression perpendicular to the grain (C-perp) have been too conservative for most structural uses. This study develops stress data for deformations beyond the proportional limit (PL), up to 0.1 inch for hem-fir. Fifteen boards from four western states were cut into small specimens representing three ring angle...

Salinger, including two narratives featured in Nine Stories, "A Perfect Day for Bananafish," and "Teddy," and Franny and Zooey, "Raise High the Roof Beam, Carpenters," and "Seymour: an Introduction." Through my analysis I argue that the religious nature of Salinger's fiction...

  • David Foster Wallace's communal middle ground

    Creator:
    Randlemon, Daniel E.
    Abstract:
    Throughout the course of this thesis, I argue that the prose of David Foster Wallace, specifically his posthumously published novel The Pale King, inhabits a middle ground between universal sincerity and the particularized authenticity of postmodern irony. I examine Lionel Trilling's definitions of sincerity and authenticity before moving toward an...

  • Thin film multilayer superconductors and the proximity effect

    Creator:
    McLaughlin, Kevin M.
    Abstract:
    Recent superconducting thin films studies have attempted to create pure metal layer films of Niobium and Titanium with the same properties of superconducting NbTi wire used in industry. These studies have all reported depression of the superconducting properties of the pure metal films which has been attributed to the proximity...

  • An evaluation of the use of tarif tables in second growth Douglas-fir

    Creator:
    Marshall, David D.
    Abstract:
    The Washington State Department of Natural Resources' Comprehensive Tree-Volume Tarif Tables are a set of preconstructed local volume tables. This can increase "on plot" efficiency since only diameters are necessary to obtain volumes after the proper table for the given diameter/height relationship is accessed. The tables are accessed and indexed...
