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...

A Comparison and Analysis of Selected Holidays in Kyrgyzstan, Russia, and the United States

Creator:: Matyeva, Alima
Abstract:: Through comparison and analysis of selected holidays in countries with significantly different features (Kyrgyzstan, Russia, and the United States), this study aims to gauge the impact of holiday celebrations in influencing cultural values in those countries studied. K. Zygulski’s classification system for holidays was applied to divide the holidays of...

Alternate Methods for the Extraction and Measurement of Pore Solution in Fresh Concrete

Creator:: Biever, Joseph
Abstract:: Knowledge of the pore solution composition and pore solution resistivity can be helpful for determining the durability of concrete structures. Most notably, pore solution resistivity can be used in the calculation of the formation factor of concrete, which is a ratio of the electrical resistivities of concrete and its pore...

Generation of expression plasmids to study the function of the PRC2 subunit Suz12 in Fusarium graminearum

Creator:: Park, Catherine
Abstract:: The Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) catalyzes genome transcription repression through the methylation of lysine residue 27 in the amino terminal region of histone 3 (H3K27me1/2/3) [2], [7]. PRC2 is made up of three highly conserved core subunits: Kmt6, Eed, and Suz12. Accurate distribution of PRC2 is essential for proper...

Evaluating the Toxicity of Organophosphate Flame Retardants in Zebrafish

Creator:: Britsch, Kimberly A.
Abstract:: Flame retardants are in many home products including couches, chairs, and electronics. The most commonly used flame retardants contained polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) until 2004, when the majority of these chemicals were phased out. PBDEs were found to be persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic to both humans and the environment. Organophosphate...

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...

Reason as Race : Enlightenment Voyages of Discovery and their Effect on 18th Century Racial Discourse

Creator:: Parker, Katherine A.
Abstract:: The proper way to order knowledge and find truth about the natural world in the eighteenth century lay in one’s ability to correctly learn and employ the quality of reason. While all had the right to seek reason, only a privileged few achieved its proper use, creating an intellectual elite...

Using An Array of NE Pacific Margin Sediment Samples to Link Land and Ocean Responses to Glacial-Interglacial Climate Variability

Creator:: Wilson, Kiya L.
Abstract:: Variability in the terrigenous (land-derived) fraction of marine sediments, including pollen and rock fragments, reflects the effects of regional climate change on continentally derived runoff, ice extent, vegetation and ocean circulation. The transport of this continental material to the seafloor must be understood in order to interpret the terrigenous sediment...

Machine learning approach to improve drug discovery in natural product extracts

Creator:: Heussner, Robert T.
Abstract:: Current natural product (NP) research is limited by its reliance on bioassay-guided fractionation to identify bioactive compounds in mixtures. Computational approaches may improve NP research by correlating mass spectra (MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance spectra (NMR) of bioactive mixtures to their bioactivity patterns. In this study, I use artificial neural...

Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design's Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres

Creator:: Le, Vivian T.
Abstract:: The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine...
