Seed set and the proportion of progeny due to self-fertilization in a Douglas-fir seed orchard

Creator:: Omi, Steven Katsu
Abstract:: The effects of clonal variability, crown position of cones, and top-pruning of ramets to reduce height growth, on 1) the proportion of viable self-fertilized progeny (s) and 2) the proportion of filled seeds (PF), were investigated in a 20 year-old Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii [Mirb.1 Franco) seed orchard. Cones were collected...

Digital Fourier Holographic Microscopy and Potential Applications Towards the Design of Photodynamic Therapy of Osteosarcoma

Creator:: Rossi, Vincent Michele
Abstract:: This work entails both imaging and therapeutic applications of biomedical optics. In both contexts, an understanding of light transport in tissues is necessary. An overview of optical transport in tissues is given, including scattering theory. Digital Fourier holographic microscopy is introduced and applied as a means of metrology via optical...

Nutritional and managerial considerations for wintering beef cattle in the northern Great Basin

Creator:: Brandyberry, Steven D.
Abstract:: A study was conducted to determine effects of year and season on diet quality of beef cattle grazing northern Great Basin rangelands from 1990 to 1993. Forage quality was high early in the growing season, then declined as seasons progressed (P<.05). Plant chemical composition was higher early in the growing...

Prompt gamma neutron activation analysis of niobium for characterization of light interstitials

Creator:: Love, Ian J.
Abstract:: High purity niobium metal is used in the construction of superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities in superconducting particle accelerators, such as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN or the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The usual method for characterizing the impurities in this niobium, the...

Measurement of 239Pu, 237Np, and 238U Fission Product γ Rays

Creator:: Tamashiro, Aaron S.
Abstract:: Fission product yields (FPYs) are used for a wide range of applications including nuclear fission theory, nuclear reactor design, reactor antineutrino anomaly, stellar nucleosynthesis, and nuclear forensics. These applications rely on FPYs that were last evaluated in 1993, which included measurements from all over the world up until 1993. In...

Bridging Ways of Knowing to Model the Dynamics of Fire as an Ecocultural Process on Frequent Fire Landscapes of the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Greenler, Skye M.
Abstract:: Wildfire impacts have intensified in many ecosystems across the western United States due to the combined impact of fire exclusion, climate change, and land management practices. However, on many of these landscapes, fire is a fundamental ecological process that has shaped vegetation structural and compositional diversity, ecosystem function, landscape pattern,...

Dynamics and control of continuous crystallizers

Creator:: Leu, Lii-ping
Abstract:: The theoretical analysis of an unseeded, isothermal mixed-suspension mixed-product-removal (MSMPR) crystallizer with a fines trap is developed. The lumped parameter system equations are presented for a homogeneous nucleation and a number-dependent secondary-nucleation model. Linear stability analysis and system simulations are used to investigate the system's dynamic behavior. Modal control algorithms...

Automated Rapid Manufacturing Feedback for Design Considering Advanced Joining Processes

Creator:: Chan, Rothanak
Abstract:: As manufacturing advancements continue to develop, designers must be able to consider these technologies during the design process. Unfortunately, many of these new technologies, such as additive and advanced joining, have many nuances that require expert knowledge to effectively apply. Additionally, new design techniques, such as topology optimization, allow users...
