  • Riddled with Exclusivity: The Homogeneity of the Supreme Court Bar in the Roberts Court

    Creator:
    Carsh, Austin M.
    Abstract:
    The Supreme Court Bar-the lawyers who argue before the US Supreme Court-has historically been an elite and exclusive group. This investigation examines the demographic make-up of the Supreme Court Bar in the Roberts Court and compares it to previous iterations of the Supreme Court Bar, as well as the national...

  • Examination of the Impact of One-Dimensional Crustal Structures on Cascadia Subduction Zone Earthquake Locations

    Creator:
    Meyer, McKenzie S.
    Abstract:
    Multiple earthquake events have been recorded off the coast of Oregon, yet their locations have great uncertainty. The largest source of uncertainty is the simple models of the crust that are used to interpret seismic recordings. Because the relationship between earthquake locations and crust are diagnostic of tectonic activity, it...

  • Sociosexual Orientation : A Historical Critique and Contemporary Analysis of its Relationship to Social Hierarchy

    Creator:
    Lyell, Courtney
    Abstract:
    Sociosexual Orientation (SSO) is a measure of individual differences in the willingness to engage in uncommitted sexual relations. This study explores the relationship between SSO and two preferences for hierarchy in society, including Social Dominance Orientation (SDO) and Social Values Orientation (SVO). All of these constructs share the common element...

  • Solveig T.Numerical Method and Step Size Variation in the Lorenz Equations

    Creator:
    Mueller, Solveig T.
    Abstract:
    The relative accuracy of solutions to chaotic systems was examined using the Lorenz system as a case study. The classical fourth order Runge-Kutta method was employed to generate solutions using various step sizes, and the resultant solutions were compared. A second set of solutions was then computed using one of...

  • The Design and Development of Custom Rear Brake Calipers for the Oregon State University Formula SAE

    Creator:
    Van Horn, Allison
    Abstract:
    Rear brake calipers are a critical component of the brake system within a vehicle. Brake calipers function by clamping against the brake rotor when the brake pedal is pressed by the driver and thus results in deceleration of the vehicle. This thesis aims to design and develop custom rear brake...

  • Temporary Organizations: Competition Management for Global Formula Racing

    Creator:
    Warmack, Michael A.
    Abstract:
    The Society of Automotive Engineers organizes the Formula SAE competitions annually for universities internationally to compete in a series of events. Teams compete in several dynamic tests for the vehicle’s handling, performance, and fuel economy, as well as static events that judge the team’s assumptions for cost, design, and business...

  • Identification of potential new biomarkers of oxygenated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (OPAH) exposures in zebrafish.

    Creator:
    Swanson, Annika J.
    Abstract:
    Oxygenated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (OPAHs) are a class of environmentally prevalent compounds with little known information on their effect in vivo. In a recent study conducted using zebrafish as a model, 38 OPAHs were screened for toxicity. This investigation focuses on two of these OPAHs, 7,12-B[a]AQ and BEZO. Both 7,12-B[a]AQ...
