Near earth object collisional mitigation via intense neutron and photon sources : a study in asteroid interdiction and energy coupling

Creator:: Sanders, JC
Abstract:: The large population of 2r>100m near earth objects (NEOs) presents a certain hazard to life on earth. It has been proposed that a nuclear device may be used to alter the course of such objects, thereby averting a catastrophic collision with the earth. The asteroid interdiction problem includes a number...

Independent Association of Vitamin D with Prevalent and Incident Outcomes of Heart Attack and Stroke in Elderly Men: A Prospective Cohort Study

Creator:: Messenger, Wyatt
Abstract:: BACKGROUND: The association of vitamin D with heart attack and stroke remains unclear. METHOD: Using data from the Osteoporotic Fractures in Men Study (MrOS), we collected dietary vitamin D data from 5,995 participants and serum (25)OH vitamin D from 1,606 participants. The association of vitamin D with prevalent heart attack...

The Evolution: Electric Vehicles and the End of Oil Addiction

Creator:: Donahue, Cory
Abstract:: The world is currently using an unsustainable system of meeting its transportation needs with oil. This system is taking a toll on the world environment and on global politics. The physical availability of oil is the system’s most immediate problem and will most likely bring about a transition away from...

Impact of pre-fermentation maceration techniques on yeast populations and color of Pinot noir wine

Creator:: Zook, Molly L.
Abstract:: The quality of red wine is primarily determined by the flavor, aroma, and color. A common wine making technique used to improve these characteristics is the pre-‐fermentation maceration. In this study two pre-fermentation maceration techniques were used, one was a traditional cold soak and the second involved addition of dry...

Bioethanol production from lignocellulosicbiomass: assessing genes linked to acetic acid stress in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Creator:: Montgomery, Tyler P.
Abstract:: Lignocellulosic biomass represents a vast and renewable source of fermentable sugar for production of biofuels. However, native lignocellulose—comprised of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin—is refractory to degradation because the crystalline cellulose is not easily hydrolyzed by cellulases. Standard chemical treatments of lignocellulose to reduce the crystallinity of cellulose prior to enzymatic...

Comparison of Canine Spermatozoa Motility, Morphology, and RNA Integrity Using Three Different Cell Purification Solutions

Creator:: Hegedus, Rachel M.
Abstract:: Transcriptome gene expression studies of sperm RNA have been utilized in a variety of different species to investigate causes of male infertility. Previous research investigators have optimized cell separation and RNA isolation techniques for each species of interest. To date, no study has been completed for dogs. The objective of...

A Computational Fluid Dynamics Investigation of Hemolysis Potential in a Microfluidic Hemoperfusion Device Designed for Use in Sepsis Treatment

Creator:: Myers, Karl N.
Abstract:: The potential of red blood cell (RBC) and platelet damage was studied for a novel microfluidic hemoperfusion device currently in development at Oregon State University for use in treating sepsis. COMSOL 4.4's computational fluid dynamics (CFD) module was used to examine shear rate profiles in laminar, Newtonian blood flow throughout...

The Women's March 2017: Predicting Participation in an Unprecedented Protest

Creator:: Mina, Catherine Ligaya
Abstract:: On January 21, 2017, the United States bore witness to the largest single-day demonstration in history—the Women’s March. This mixed methods study uses a combination of quantitative and qualitative data in an attempt to predict participation in this infamous protest. I divulge the ways in which the 2017 Women’s March...

The Islamic Prohibition on Interest : Muslim Americans’ Financial Understandings, Attitudes, and Behavior

Creator:: Moussaoui, Ibrahim
Abstract:: In Islam, paying and receiving interest is prohibited based on the belief that money should not be a commodity that is “rented” out; instead, Islamic lending structures arrange loans on an equity basis. This work examines the historical origins of interest prohibition and explains how different Islamic financial products provide...

Digital Co-Creation: An Early Stage Product Personalization Methodology to Bridge the User-Designer Void

Creator:: Slama, Timothy J.
Abstract:: Modern product development is a complex combination of multidisciplinary processes ranging from market research to design, engineering analysis, and logistics. The product development process has a significant impact on the success or failure of new product launches. The majority of consumer product launches fail, resulting in significant sunk cost in...
