  • Theory of negative thermal expansion

    Creator:
    Tao, Ju Zhou
    Abstract:
    Two framework oxide materials of the MO₃ network type have been synthesized and structurally characterized by synchrotron and X-ray powder diffraction and the Rietveld method in the temperature range 25~500 K. The results show one of them to be a low thermal expansion material. Theoretical studies of negative thermal expansion...

  • Clothing evaluative critieria : a cross-national comparison of Taiwanese and United States consumers

    Creator:
    Hsu, Hsiu-Ju
    Abstract:
    According to Engel, Blackwell, and Miniard (1993), evaluative criteria refer to "the standards and specifications used by consumers to compare different products and brands" (p. 51). Many studies have examined the importance of clothing evaluative criteria used by consumers in their decision making. However, few studies have compared the clothing...

  • Factors Associated with body mass index among young adults in Taiwan

    Creator:
    Lai, I-Ju
    Abstract:
    Obesity is a major public health problem and is a risk factor for hypertension, diabetes, heart disease and cancer. In addition, the prevalence of obesity appears to be increasing worldwide, making it important to determine the nature and extent of obesity in populations at risk. The aim of this study...

  • National culture and clothing values : a cross-national study of Taiwan and United States consumers

    Creator:
    Hsu, Hsiu-Ju
    Abstract:
    According to Blackwell, Miniard, and Engel (2001), "[c]ulture has a profound effect on why and how people buy and consume products and services" (p. 320). In the present study, Hofstede's classifications of national culture are used as a framework to examine the relationships among long-term orientation national culture (Taiwan and...

  • Feedback in multiple antenna wireless communication systems

    Creator:
    Xu, Tao
    Abstract:
    Multiple-input multiple-output wireless systems promise significant capacity gain and/or diversity gain over single antenna systems. If channel state information (CSI) is available at both the transmitter and the receiver, the performance can be further improved. In this thesis, first, we study binary index feedback problem in beamforming systems when the...

  • Using the predictive method in the 2010 Highway Safety Manual to identify hazardous intersections in Corvallis, OR

    Creator:
    Zhou, Yanfen
    Abstract:
    An intersection, due to its vehicle and pedestrian conflict movements, experiences complex traffic situations that might contribute to crashes. In the city of Corvallis, OR, historically more than 80% of the total crashes have occurred within an intersection or have been designated as intersection-related. It is important to develop a...

  • A software package for an intelligent graphic display terminal

    Creator:
    Nelson, Cecil L.
    Abstract:
    A cost reduction analysis is performed by coordinating the exchange of LANDSAT (formerly ERTS) data between a CDC 3300 and a PDP8/L minicomputer. The LANDSAT data is displayed on a 4002 Tektronix terminal by means of a grayscale output. Large amounts of data and number manipulation are processed in the...

  • A FORTRAN program for the simultaneous solution of two algebraic polynomial equations in two unknowns

    Creator:
    Diffely, Robert Elwin
    Abstract:
    The author investigates a FORTRAN program designed to find all solutions of two nonlinear polynomial equations in two unknowns. For the method of Sylvester to be a method adaptable to a general purpose solver in this area, it will be necessary to have multiple precision capability combined with a much...

  • Volatile mobility of trace metals in volcanic systems

    Creator:
    Loewen, Matthew W.
    Abstract:
    Semi-volatile trace metals like Li, Cu, Mo, Sn, In, and Pb have the potential to track mobility of a volatile phase in volcanic systems. In this dissertation four studies are presented that either directly investigate or are motivated by observations of trace metal behavior in volcanic systems. A common tool...
