  • Presidential Framing of Failure : A Pentadic Rhetorical Criticism of President Donald Trump’s Rhetoric on Policy Failure with Obamacare

    Creator:
    Robinson, Miranda M.
    Abstract:
    In October, 2016, presidential candidate Donald Trump released a document titled “Contract with the American Voter.” This document promised, among many things, that within his first 100 days of his potential presidency, he would repeal and replace Obamacare. When he was unable to fulfill that promise, he employed rhetorical tactics...

  • Fair Value Accounting and the Liquidity Crisis of 2008-2009

    Creator:
    Arias, Yessenia M.
    Abstract:
    Fair value accounting has become a very popular and controversial topic in light of the 2008-2009 liquidity crisis in the United States. Fair value, also called mark-to-market, implies that assets and liabilities get measured and reported in firms‘ financial statements at market value as opposed to historical value. This study...

  • Isolating Non-Blackbody Radiation Spectra from Low-Bandgap LEDs near Zero Bias

    Creator:
    Teo, YiPeng
    Abstract:
    The study of carrier transport in light-emitting diode (LED) has been researched extensively in the past. However, most studies were implementing voltages above the turn-on voltage of the LED. Research on LEDs well below the turn-on voltage threshold is comparatively scarce for good reasons. When the supply voltage is below...

  • Investigating Carrier Temperature in LED Quantum Well Driven Below the Turn-On Voltage

    Creator:
    Jeliazkova, Michelle
    Abstract:
    Electron behavior in semiconductor materials critically determines electronic applications. Previous research has shown carrier temperature higher than the lattice temperature of LEDs due to energy differences in the quantum well. Study of these findings requires a novel set-up to dig out weak signal in a thermal-noise filled environment; analytical methods...

  • Using Divertor Strike Point Splitting to Understand Plasma Response and its Sensitivity Equilibrium Uncertainty

    Creator:
    Teklu, Abraham M.
    Abstract:
    Soon the largest fusion project in the world, ITER, will attempt to produce more fusion power than required to sustain the fusion reaction, this is known as ignition. The tokamak (a toroidal fusion device) being built in France will be running at such high temperatures that heat distribution is a...

  • Sperm acrosome associated 3 protein expression and antigenicity in horses

    Creator:
    Cozzi, Brynley C.
    Abstract:
    Sperm acrosome associated 3 protein (SPACA3) is a unique, intra-acrosomal, conventional-type lysozyme-like protein of mammalian spermatozoa. SPACA3 is present in all stages of ovarian follicles and is localized to granulosa cells and ooplasma in humans, mice, cows, dogs, and cats. The objective of this study was to determine if equine...

  • The Winners and Losers of Sarbanes-Oxley

    Creator:
    Bailey, Derek
    Abstract:
    As a result of numerous financial scandals at the turn of the 21st century, Congress passed the Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Act of 2002, requiring all publicly-listed companies to comply with regulations aimed at reducing the amount of material misstatements in the financial statements, both frauds and errors. Although the costs of...

  • Exotic Species Success in Fire- and Harvest-Disturbed Forest Sites in Southwest Oregon

    Creator:
    Pearce-Smith, Sarabeth
    Abstract:
    Invasive plant species are a significant concern in Oregon’s forests, particularly in early-seral sites. Early-seral forests are generated by severe disturbances such as fire or timber harvest, and persist until canopy closure. They are vulnerable to invasion because they have abundant resources, and are important because they provide unique resources....

  • Questions of Stasis in a Post-Truth World

    Creator:
    Shepard, Bradley
    Abstract:
    Stasis theory has long stood as a foundational pillar of Western rhetoric. It is an integral component of the canon of invention, and has been in existence since the times of ancient Greek scholars. However, it is currently facing a substantive challenge to its efficacy and its very existence. This...

  • Drone Strikes : The Moral, Political, and Legal Implications of the Changing Character of War

    Creator:
    Khalife, Ryan A.
    Abstract:
    Drone strikes have become a defining strategy in the US War on Terror. Since the first combat drone strike in 2001, the executive branch has intentionally increased the deployment of drones for counterterrorism operations throughout the Middle East and North Africa. This thesis explores the moral and legal justifications for...
