  • The Politics of Homophobia: Examining the Intersection of Political Expediency and Nazi Ideology

    Creator:
    Varela, C. Alexander
    Abstract:
    Homosexual men in Nazi Germany experienced legal and social oppression that was rooted in both the cultural homophobia of Twentieth Century Germany and the existential homophobia of high-ranking Nazi officials.

  • Autonomous Controls System for Global Formula Racing

    Creator:
    Bishnu, Deven A.
    Abstract:
    This project focuses on implementing a model predictive control (MPC) algorithm as a pathfinding algorithm for navigating tracks with the Oregon State University Global Formula Racing (GFR) team's driverless car. The new algorithm would use an optimization function to calculate the least-cost path for the car to take by assigning...

  • 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...

  • 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...

  • 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...

    Creator:
    Dang, Victor Q.
    Abstract:
    A student-built lap time simulation coupled with the scoring model of the Formula Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) Series has revealed the major importance of downforce on overall points. As a result, the Global Formula Racing (GFR) team has recently focused much effort towards the development of an aerodynamics package...
