Statistical methods for assessing the likelihoods of fault rupture scenarios in earthquakes

Creator:: Tallan, Katherine S.
Abstract:: Earthquake rupture scenarios are important tools for understanding the nature of plate movement and patterns in seismic activity. The creation and assessment of these rupture scenarios rely heavily on geologic reasoning and principles applied to earthquake event data. This reliance introduces a certain amount of subjectivity to the rupture scenario...

Beyond the Birds and the Bees: A Study of Comprehensive Sex Education in Oregon High Schools

Creator:: Wicks, Katie J.
Abstract:: Oregon high schools are required to provide comprehensive sex education to students, but there is anecdotal evidence that this is not consistently being carried out across all schools. Despite the significant amount of literature that exists on the topic of sex education, there is a gap in regards to what...

Multiracial Identity Development: Parental Transmission, Belonging and Mental Health

Creator:: Nakamura-Daya, Hana J.
Abstract:: The present study explores the topic of Multiracial Identity Development and how parents play an important role in the identity development of children. The role of parents becomes crucial for parents of Multiracial children as they transmit cultural values, beliefs, language, and practices. Although models of racial identity development exist,...

Developing a Qualitative Assessment Instrument to Measure Conceptualization of Oppression and Privilege

Creator:: Johnson, Rachel M.
Abstract:: An understanding of oppression and privilege would improve engineering climates and encourage individuals with marginalized identities to stay engaged in engineering spaces. Currently there are quantitative tools to assess cultural competencies, but none that measure understandings of power relationships. This project aims to create a qualitative assessment instrument to measure...

Important Entry-Level Skills and Knowledge for Engineers in the Bioprocessing Industry

Creator:: Nguyen, Amy
Abstract:: Bioprocessing design includes optimizing unit operations in a process in order to attain a desired amount of product. Process economics, safety, environmental impact, and product quality are considered. This study investigated which skills and conceptual knowledge related to bioprocessing design were most important for entry-level engineers in the bioprocessing industry....

A Proposed Treatment System for the Remediation of Landfill Leachate Using Algae

Creator:: Myers, Shanna Grace
Abstract:: Landfill leachate is a complex wastewater that contains high levels of ammonium (often over 250 ppm) and trace heavy metals (usually under 0.2 ppm). Microalgae have been shown to inexpensively and effectively treat wastewaters containing high loads of organics and nutrients, as well as adsorb metal ions. This thesis focuses...

Gender Stereotypes in Halloween Costumes

Creator:: Searles, Samantha A. P.
Abstract:: Previous research has shown that gender stereotypes are present in advertisements and in popular culture items. We conducted a content analysis of Halloween costumes to examine the presence of gender stereotypes in the poses of the models, weapons, and costume role (e.g. hero, counter authority, mythical creature, royalty). A sample...

Photocatalytic Treatment of Stormwater Runoff using Puralytics LilyPad

Creator:: Laurance, Jon
Abstract:: Stormwater picks up pollutants as it flows over impervious surfaces before ending up in water resources. Best management practices are implemented to remove pollutants from stormwater. Puralytics manufactures a stormwater treatment product called the LilyPad. The LilyPad consists of a titanium dioxide nanoparticle photocatalyst immobilized on polypropylene substrate. Treatment of...

Systemic barriers encountered by Latinas in engineering

Creator:: Coto, Paula
Abstract:: Latinas in engineering face discrimination on the intersectionality of their two identities, Latinx and woman. The barriers that happen to them as an indirect effect of previous or existing institutional systems of oppression are called systemic barriers. Coming from the lens of four subjects, in a ranking of the barriers...

Orienting the Cube in Minkowski Space and Orienting Myself in Mathematics

Creator:: O'Harrow, Josie
Abstract:: This is a two-part thesis. The first part is a generalization of vector calculus tools to Minkowski Space, a non-Euclidean 3-dimensional geometry that has a distance function that is not positive definite. We orient a cube in Minkowski Space using the generalized Stokes' Theorem to relate a divergence integral to...
