A Novel Method for the Quantitative Assessment of Fingered Robot Hand Designs for In-Hand Manipulation using Human Studies and Object-Centric Benchmarks

Creator:: Morrow, John F., IV
Abstract:: Fingered robot hands are complicated systems made of three essential system components: its morphology, its actuation, and its software control. These system components are tightly coupled to each other. Due to this, it is hard to benchmark robot hand performance in a way to understand the contributions of the individual...

Compensating effects and gene action estimates for the components of grain yield in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum, L. em Thell)

Creator:: Abi-Antoun, Michel
Abstract:: Five winter wheat cultivars and their diallel crosses were evaluated for plant height, harvest index, deading-maturity duration, the components of yield, (spikes per plant, spikelets per spike, kernel weight and kernels per spikelet)and total plant yield. Two diverse locations, Moro, a dryland site (250 mm annually) located in central Oregon...

Decision-making in the Face of Uncertainty: Examining the Interplay between Social Relations and Loss Aversion in Small-Scale Fishing Communities in Jamaica

Creator:: Wade, Eric A.
Abstract:: Decision-making is a highly complex process influenced by the values, attitudes, and cognitive biases of the decision-maker. The classical model of decision-making fails to fully incorporate how decisions are made in situations of uncertainty, where having complete knowledge of all possible outcomes and alternatives is not always possible. In highly...

Heritability for perloline, nitrogen, and digestibility characteristics in tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea, Schreb.) single-crosses grown in two locations

Creator:: Watson, Clarence Ellis
Abstract:: Tall fescue often results in poor liveweight gains. This may be accounted for by variations in perloline content, nitrogen content, or digestibility of the plant. Two groups of tall fescue plants were examined for each of these traits. These groups consisted of (a) fifteen single-crosses of a six parent diallel...

Pathogenicity of experimentally induced concurrent infections of Fasciola hepatica and Haemonchus contortus in sheep

Creator:: Presidente, Paul J.
Abstract:: Twenty yearling sheep were allotted to four groups, each containing five sheep of approximately equal weight. On experimental days 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4, each sheep in each group was given the following inoculations by stomach tube: five sheep in group I (Fasciola hepatica-exposed controls) were given approximately 120...

Structure and Dynamics of the Canine (Canis familiaris) Nasal Microbiome

Creator:: Knorr, Elizabeth
Abstract:: The diverse community of bacteria living within and on host organisms, known as the microbiome, has an important role in maintaining host health. Dysbiosis, known as a change in the healthy community of the microbiome, has been associated with a number of diseases across host organisms and body sites including...

Structure and Function of Foliar Fungal Communities of Populus trichocarpa Across its Native Range, Pacific Northwest, USA

Creator:: Barge, Edward G.
Abstract:: Foliar fungi – pathogens, endophytes, epiphytes – form taxonomically diverse communities that affect plant health and productivity. The composition of foliar fungal communities is variable at spatial scales both small (e.g., individual plants) and large (e.g., continents). However, few studies have focused on how environmental factors and host plant traits...

Geochemical cycling in a Pacific Northwest estuary (Tillamook Bay, Oregon, USA)

Creator:: Colbert, Debbie L.
Abstract:: This thesis investigates the behavior of major inorganic nutrients (P, N, Si), trace metals (Mn, Fe), and alkaline-earth metals (Ba) within Tillamook Bay over seasonal cycles and under a range of river discharge conditions from October 1997 through December 1999. Located in the Pacific Northwest region, Tillamook Bay is an...

Higher Education Diversity Work and its Discontents: Theorizing Student Social Media Activism as Counter-hegemonic Network of Practice

Creator:: Robertson, Rebecca
Abstract:: Diversity and inclusion represent central challenges and opportunities in the transnational field of higher education, as the number of students enrolled in higher education has expanded exponentially over the past century and universal access to tertiary education has emerged as a development imperative. Within this context, diversity has emerged as...

An Oregonian Jarabe : Danza Folklórica and Mexicana Mothers

Creator:: Olvera, Monica L.
Abstract:: Acculturative stress can be associated with increased conflicts between Latino parents and adolescent youth, and have negative effects on Latino immigrant parents' psychosocial functioning and parenting practices. Yet, the potentially deleterious effects of acculturative stress on Latino immigrant parents' psychosocial functioning and parenting practices may be mitigated through positive acculturative...
