  • Implications of Red Signal Countdown Timers on Visual Attention of Oregon Drivers

    Creator:
    Wyman, Amy A.
    Abstract:
    Red Signal Countdown Timers (RSCTs) are devices placed at intersections to inform drivers of the time remaining on a red indication before it turns green, typically to improve intersection efficiency. This study examines the visual attention of Oregon drivers to circular red (CR) indications with RSCTs as compared to standard...

  • Effect of Polyethylene Oxide (PEO) Modification on the Structure and Antimicrobial Activity of the Antimicrobial Peptide WLBU2

    Creator:
    Raper, Miranda A.
    Abstract:
    Sepsis is a blood infection that is caused by circulating bacteria cells and cell fragments, which contain immunogenic lipopolysaccharides (LPS) or endotoxin. The circulating endotoxin results in a severe dysregulation of the inflammatory response that ultimately leads to organ failure. One promising treatment method is removal of endotoxin by passing...

  • A Nascent Helix in Dynein Intermediate Chain is Essential for Regulating Dynein/Dynactin Complexes

    Creator:
    Saravanan, Sanjana
    Abstract:
    Cytoplasmic dynein is a motor protein complex found in eukaryotes that is essential to many cellular processes. With dynein being involved in mitosis, axonal transport and organelle transport, disruption of dynein function can lead to neurodegeneration and other diseases. The main function of dynein is transportation of cargo through the...

  • Cryogenic Single-Phase Heat Transfer in a Microscale Pin Fin Heat Sink

    Creator:
    Truong, Eric D.
    Abstract:
    A combined experimental and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) study of single-phase liquid nitrogen flow through a microscale pin-fin heat sink is presented. Such cryogenic heat sinks could find use in applications such as high performance computing, spacecraft thermal management, and hydrogen storage thermal management. A circular pin fin heat sink...

  • Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Simulation of Microfluidic Focusing in a Low-Cost Flow Cytometer

    Creator:
    Parrott, Connor
    Abstract:
    Inertial microfluidics refers to the manipulation of the location and velocity of particles suspended in microscale fluid flow without the introduction of outside forces. It has promising applications in flow cytometry and other biomedical technologies because of the potential for lowering cost and complexity relative to current particle focusing methods....

  • A Novel Elysium

    Creator:
    Anderson, Evan Crichton
    Abstract:
    As a metafictional work of science fiction literature, A Novel Elysium explores the timelessness of both the human mind and its literary surroundings, comparing the self-awareness of its characters to the sometimes tragic or empowering metaphysical realizations of human beings. Within this framework, any concrete place or time is unimportant;...

  • Identification of Pseudomonas syringae genes required for perception of host-derived virulence-inducing metabolites

    Creator:
    Turner, Sydney E.
    Abstract:
    Pseudomonas syringae is a Gram-negative bacterium that can infect a variety of important crops. Infection by P. syringae is dependent on a type III secretion system (T3SS) that delivers effector proteins to plant cells to suppress host defenses. Previous work has shown that, in the presence of simple sugars, specific...

  • Design and Testing of a Tethered, Coaxial Rotor Micro Air Vehicle

    Creator:
    Shryer, Jacob R.
    Abstract:
    Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) technology is a rapidly developing technological marketspace. This thesis focuses on micro, tethered, coaxial UASs and the development of an electrically-tethered observation platform (ETOP). The thesis details the current status of the technology as well as current products on the market. Stability considerations, critical when adding...

  • Modeling of Power Efficiency in a Magnetohydrodynamic Generator

    Creator:
    Redle, Michael T.
    Abstract:
    The introduction of an Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) generator in coal or natural gas energy plants could significantly increase the efficiency by converting kinetic and thermal energy of the combustion exhaust to electrical energy by the generation of a Faraday and Hall current. The traditional MHD system was transformed into a simplified...
