Genetics of the Pacific oyster ; biological and economic implications

Creator:: Lannan, James E.
Abstract:: Variances among individuals within populations are influenced by environmental and genetic factors. Utilizing quantitative genetic theory, environmental and genetic components of variance have been compartmented for a variety of quantitative characters of the Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas. A significant genetic component of variance in a quantitative attribute related to reproductive...

Information processing errors in linear feedback control systems

Creator:: Chong, Hoi-yeung
Abstract:: This report is concerned with the analysis of the effect of finite wordlength, channel capacity and source rate in digital feedback control of linear systems. The cases considered are (1) finite wordlength A/D conversion, no feedback delay, ideal ROM (read only memory) controller; (2) finite A/D wordlength (source rate), state...

A genetic study of the red-band trout (Salmo sp.)

Creator:: Wilmot, Richard L.
Abstract:: A group of trout that reside in streams of the desiccating lake basins of southeastern Oregon differ markedly from other known Salmo. Known commonly as the red-band trout, this fish was subjected to chromosome analysis for comparison with other species of western North American Salmo. The karyotype of the red-banded...

Generalized Preconditioning to Accelerate Simulations with Large Multiphase Chemical Kinetics Models

Creator:: Walker, Anthony S.
Abstract:: Combustion emissions produced from burning real transportation fuels have many environmental impacts. However, detailed chemistry across multiple phases, time scales, and thermodynamic conditions make predicting combustion emissions challenging. Detailed modeling of the gas phase alone is prohibitively expensive, due to the large size and stiffness of the kinetic models. The...
