An Approach to Modeling Fuel Plate Deformations in Fluid-Structure Interactions

Creator:: Howard, Trevor
Abstract:: As computational power increases, so does the desire to use fluid-structure interaction (FSI) software to design complex systems and components such as fuel plates. Presently, an effort is underway to support the design and qualification of a new nuclear fuel material which is intended for applications in select, plate-type, research...

Quantifying System Similarity Between EBR-II and the VTR Integral Test Facility Through Hierarchical Two-Tiered Scaling and RELAP5 Simulations

Creator:: Leitherer, Brett C.
Abstract:: Advanced reactor designs offer many advantages over typical Light Water Reactors (LWRs) including fast neutron capability, passive safety features, and improved performance. While the future for these reactors seems promising, operating and test experience is necessary to further validate such claims. The development of full-scale facilities has proved to be...

The Role of Southern Oregon's Coastal Islands in Prehistoric Subsistence

Creator:: Gard, Howard A.
Abstract:: The portion of the Oregon coast extending from Cape Blanco south into California has long been recognized as a distinct physiographic region, with probable ramifications for prehistoric subsistence and settlement patterns. Several researchers have proposed models outlining a greater reliance upon marine/littoral resources among groups within this region, while more...

The phytosociology of some vine maple communities in the Marys Peak watershed

Creator:: Anderson, Howard George
Abstract:: A study was undertaken in the Marys Peak watershed with the following objectives. First, a classification of the major plant communities was carried out. Second, some of the ecological features of Acer circinatum that account for its distribution within these communities were determined. The following plant communities are described: Corylus...

Scaling analysis of the OSU high temperature test facility during a pressurized conduction cooldown event using RELAP5-3D

Creator:: Castañeda, Juan A.
Abstract:: In early 2000, the Generation IV International Forum (GIF) was created to perform research and development for the next generation nuclear systems. Among the selected nuclear systems was the Very High Temperature Gas-Cooled Reactor (VHTR). Then in 2008, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) decided that the Next Generation Nuclear...

Patterns of distribution, abundance, and change over time in the marine bird community of Prince William Sound, Alaska, 1989-2012

Creator:: Cushing, Daniel A.
Abstract:: Over recent decades, the marine ecosystems of Prince William Sound (PWS), Alaska have experienced the concurrent effects of a major anthropogenic disturbance, the 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill (EVOS), and a dynamic atmospheric-oceanic environment. Studies of top marine consumers can provide insights into processes of ecosystem change. Using data collected...

Identifying the relevance of "family forest" wood product origin and environmental certification for Oregon consumers, and specifiers and industrial customers

Creator:: Hamner, Rebecca A.
Abstract:: The wood products industry is influenced heavily by family ownership along the entire value chain. Although family ownership affects each link of the wood products value chain, there has been little research into the importance of products originating from family forestland. Specific attributes of products, such as origin or environmental...

Exploratory Study of Salvaged Lumber as Feedstock for Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT)

Creator:: Arbelaez, Raphael E.
Abstract:: The United States generates over 70 million tonnes of wood waste annually, with over 27 million tonnes still available for recovery. Current recycling rates for wood waste are in the range of 10% to 15%, which is much lower than other common building materials and indicative of an underutilized resource....

Interconnectedness of Forest Ecosystem Services, Environmental Corporate Impacts, and Corporate Social Responsibility in the Amazon Rainforest

Creator:: Dancé, Raúl
Abstract:: The ecosystem services provided by our forest resources and woodlands are multiple and diverse on all spatial and temporal levels, and include provision, regulating, cultural, and supporting services (Hanson, et al. WRI, 2008). Human activities are proximate and direct drivers of deforestation and forest degradation. In the Latin American region,...

Irradiation Capsule Development for Composite Fuels for Nuclear Thermal Propulsion

Creator:: Thody, Austin
Abstract:: Nuclear Thermal Rocket (NTR) designs have received renewed interest due to their superior thermal efficiencies and a rehabilitated desire for space exploration. This has resulted in improved NTR fuel designs that have unique properties that require investigation and testing in order to be more safely designed and operated. Oak Ridge...
