Host selection, reproductive biology, host-specific development and mortality of the codling moth, Cydia pomonella (L.) (Lepidoptera: Torticidae), in apple and pear

Creator:: Marti, Santiago Marti
Abstract:: The biology and behavior of the codling moth, Cydia pomonella (L.), was studied to determine factors responsible for differences in susceptibility to moth damage among apple and pear cultivars. In release experiments, codling moth adults were intercepted in significantly greater numbers in host (apple, pear) than in non-host (maple) trees,...

A general theory of flooding implementing the cuspoid catastrophe

Creator:: Lafi, Abd Y.
Abstract:: The flooding phenomenon can be defined as the maximum attainable flow condition beyond which the well defined countercurrent flow pattern can no longer exist. Thus the countercurrent flow limit (CCFL) or the flooding limit may be thought of as the flow condition at which the strong interaction between the two...

Factors that motivate Latino students to pursue higher education in selected colleges in the state of Oregon

Creator:: Meza Discua, José Luis
Abstract:: Latinos are the largest and most rapidly growing ethnic minority in the United States, and they have the highest dropout rates of any major ethnic group in the country (U.S. Department of Labor, 2003). Latinos' educational attainment is consistently lower than that of other students (Gandara, 2008). The majority of...

An on-line advanced plant simulator (OLAPS)

Creator:: Samuels, Jeffery W.
Abstract:: A PC based on-line advanced plant simulator (OLAPS) for high quality simulations of Portland General Electric's Trojan Nuclear Facility is presented. OLAPS is designed to simulate the thermal-hydraulics of the primary system including core, steam generators, pumps, piping and pressurizer. The simulations are based on a five equation model that...

A study of return to saturation oscillations in the OSU APEX thermal hydraulic testing facility

Creator:: Franz, Scott C.
Abstract:: The purpose of this paper is to describe the flow oscillations which occur in the AP600 long term cooling test facility at Oregon State University. The AP600 system is an advanced pressurized water reactor design utilizing passive emergency cooling systems. A few hours after the initiation of a cold leg...

Response of grain yield, plant height and kernel weight in three winter wheat crosses (Triticum aestivum, L. em Thell) to different methods of selection

Creator:: Salmeron-Zamora, Jose Juan
Abstract:: This study was undertaken to see if a method of handling segregating populations could be employed which combined the positive attributes of the traditional pedigree and-bulk methods. Derived F₅ lines from the pedigree, bulk, and what is identified as a modified bulk method, were obtained from three winter wheat crosses....

Modifying selected factors to classify levels of resistance or tolerance in wheat to Septoria Tritici Blotch

Creator:: Re, Jose Vicente
Abstract:: Influence of abiotic and biotic factors were examined in selected winter wheats previously identified as representing a range of responses to septoria infection. In the greenhouse two and three inoculations identified resistance when disease severity was assessed either for the top four leaves or the flag leaf respectively. Kernel number...

Performance and stability analysis of gas-injection enhanced natural circulation in heavy-liquid-metal-cooled systems

Creator:: Yoo, Yeon-Jong
Abstract:: The purpose of this study is to investigate the performance and stability of the gas-injection enhanced natural circulation in heavy-liquid-metal-cooled systems. The target system is STAR-LM, which is a 400-MWt-class advanced lead-cooled fast reactor under development by Argonne National Laboratory and Oregon State University. The primary loop of STAR-LM relies...

Development of an Accelerated Method for Assessing Decay of Wood Plastic Composites (WPC's)

Creator:: Silva Guzman, Jose Antonio
Abstract:: This study examined the decay resistance of the pine and maple components of wood plastic composites (WPC' s) of varying thicknesses exposed on several culture media to wood decay fungi under laboratory conditions. The ability of malt agar extract (MEA), potato dextrose agar (PDA), amended basal salts, sawdust (maple and...
