  • Ultra sonic SCUBA diver tracking device hardware

    Creator:
    Lindsley, Christopher J.
    Abstract:
    Currently, there is no accurate, low-cost method to track divers. Watching bubbles can give you an approximate xy-location, and expensive underwater radios utilizing ultrasonic waves can work if the diver knows where they are. Traditional radio waves do not work well in water due to the conductive nature of water....

  • Characterization of binary trees

    Creator:
    Brandstetter, Griffin
    Abstract:
    In "Level Number Sequences for Trees" Flagotet and Prodinger investigate the problem of counting the number of level number sequences associated to binary trees of $n$ binary nodes. I convert this problem into terms of exterior nodes or "leaves" and leaf number sequences. "Polynomial representation" is then defined to address...

  • Reactive Phase Change Materials for Enhanced Thermal Energy Storage

    Creator:
    Drake, Griffin S.
    Abstract:
    Effective storage and release of low-to-moderate temperature thermal energy (e.g. solar thermal or geothermal) could be transformational for applications such as space heating/cooling, domestic hot water, or off-grid cooking. Good candidates for thermal energy storage in this temperature range include latent heat storage (LHS) systems and thermochemical energy storage (TCES)...

  • Power Generation via a Thermoelectric Generator Driven by a Reversible Exothermic Reaction

    Creator:
    Bhatt, Renuka J.
    Abstract:
    Solar thermal energy can be stored and later converted to electrical energy using a combination of thermochemical energy storage (TCES) and a thermoelectric generator (TEG). This TEG and TCES combination illustrates a potential route for clean electricity storage from renewable energy. TCES allows for thermal energy from the sun to...

  • Selection of hotels: Is the sustainability of a building more important than its aesthetic appearance?

    Creator:
    Chan, Lina
    Abstract:
    This study explores the influence that the sustainability of hotels has on the choice of hotels. Because of recent concern about global warming and reducing energy consumption, many designers are planning sustainable buildings. But often attractiveness is sacrificed for the goal of making a building sustain in its environment. The...

  • Comparing the Ovarian Expression of Sperm Acrosome Associated 3 Protein in Young and Adult Queens

    Creator:
    Ramsey, Ann M.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this thesis was to quantify sperm acrosome associated 3 (SPACA3) protein expression in the ovaries of young (3.0±0.9 months, n=11) and adult (10.4±2.8 months, n=11) queens. It was hypothesized that SPACA3 expression would not differ between age groups. Immunohistochemistry was performed on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded feline ovarian sections...

  • Betrayal Trauma and Fearful Shyness Predict Shame and Dissociation

    Creator:
    Nakai, Saki C.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this study was to examine how fearful and self-conscious shyness subtypes are related to shame, dissociation, and PTSD following traumatic experiences. We hypothesized self-conscious shyness, characterized by feelings of embarrassment and fear of public scrutiny, to be related to symptoms of high betrayal. We predicted fearful shyness,...

  • Public Cognitions and Emotions Associated with Ocean Acidification and Sea Star Wasting Disease: An Exploratory Study in Oregon

    Creator:
    Insinga, Maia L.
    Abstract:
    Marine environments provide services for ecosystems and humans, but face many threats, including sea star wasting disease (SSWD) and ocean acidification (OA). Biological research on these threats is abundant, but there has been limited research examining the human dimensions of these threats. This thesis contains two standalone articles that explore...

  • Impacts of Prior Risk Experience and Personal Values on Support for Climate Change Policies

    Creator:
    Dwyer, Kiera M.
    Abstract:
    In 2020, Oregon suffered one of the worst wildfire seasons on record, with a higher percent of forest area burn, the destruction of residential areas, and the risk to human health. The level of intensity of these wildfires were due to the effects of climate change and Oregon wildfire seasons...

  • Winning through Compromise? An Examination of Bipartisanship and Electability

    Creator:
    Ellingson-Cosenza, Elena J.
    Abstract:
    In America’s polarized politics, the language that congresspeople use matters. This thesis examines the use of bipartisan communications—in tweets and press releases—of members of the US House of Representatives as an electoral strategy for representatives in districts of varying competitiveness. A linear regression was conducted to analyze the relationship between...
