Advancements Toward the Simulation of Steel Structures in Fire Using OpenSees

Creator:: Gordon, James A.
Abstract:: Since the collapse of World Trade Center building number seven (WTC7), significant research has been done to understand the behavior of steel structures in fire and enable engineers to account for the behavior of steel framing systems exposed to fire during design. Despite these efforts, there are still significant barriers...

Stable Isotope Constraints on Carbon Dioxide and Nitrous Oxide Variations at the Onset of the Last Glacial Period: New Ice Cores from Taylor Glacier, Antarctica

Creator:: Menking, James A.
Abstract:: New ice cores retrieved from the Taylor Glacier (Antarctica) blue ice area contain ice and air spanning the Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 5/4 transition, a period of global cooling and ice sheet expansion. Chronologies were determined for the ice and air bubbles in the new ice cores by visually matching...

Persistence of Populations in Environments with an Interface

Creator:: Rekow, James A.
Abstract:: We model a fish population in a spatial region comprising a marine protected area and a fishing ground separated by an interface. The model assumes conservation of biomass density and takes the form of a reaction diffusion equation with a logistic reaction term. At the interface, in addition to continuity...

The Effect of Cover Crops on Availability of Water to Grape Vines in the Willamette Valley in 1985

Creator:: Vomocil, James A.
Abstract:: This study was initiated in its original form in 1982 with the Yamhill Soil and Water Conservation District and the McMinnville Field Office of the USDA-Soil Conservation Service. The Soils Department, Oregon State University, was one of several cooperators, in part funded by The Wine Advisory Board. In 1984 and...

The influence of participating in a mandatory mixed-format student success seminar on persistence in an urban community college

Creator:: Mendoza, James A.
Abstract:: Over the past twenty years, the national three-year graduation rate for community college students has ranged from 44% to roughly 31% in 2013 (NCES, 2013). As a way to address such low graduation rates, colleges have implemented a myriad of services and programs (i.e., tutoring, mentoring, etc.). Another intervention is...

A channel stability inventory for two streams on the eastern slopes of the Coast Range, Oregon

Creator:: Sachet, James A.
Abstract:: Stream channel stability for two tributaries of Rock Creek in the Oregon Coast Range is evaluated by application of a Stream Reach Inventory. Stability nomographs are constructed for graphical analysis of erosion potential. Results indicate that channel stability can be classified. One stream is rated as 'Poor' in resistance to...

The effects of alternative future development scenarios on ecological processes and social-ecological resilience in Central Oregon

Creator:: Duncan, James A.
Abstract:: This research sought to explore the implications of different tenure regimes for both landscape-level ecological processes and the overall resilience of a social-ecological system in Central Oregon. The purchase by an investor of former industrial timberlands known as the Bull Springs tract raised the specter of dispersed residential development on...

College student novice spreadsheet reasoning and errors

Creator:: Hoag, James A.
Abstract:: The spreadsheet has become a common technology tool and is now a predominant form of end-user programming. Some of the same features that make spreadsheets excellent tools for ad-hoc development can introduce errors into the final product. Although a variety of research has been performed investigating methods to detect errors...

Identification of representative west coast areas for manganese nodule processing activities

Creator:: Henderson, James A.
Abstract:: Manganese nodules are concretions which are widely distributed on the bottom of marine waters as well as on the bottom of some lakes. They vary in size, abundance, and to some extent composition, with location. The nodules are of potential economic value because of the nickel, copper, cobalt and manganese...

Turbulent flow characteristics in a randomly packed porous bed based on particle image velocimetry measurements

Creator:: Patil, Vishal A. and Liburdy, James A.
Abstract:: An experimental study was undertaken to better understand the turbulent flow characteristics within a randomly packed porous bed. A relatively low aspect ratio bed (bed width to spherical solid phase particle diameter of 4.67) with the fluid phase refractive index matched to that of the solid phase was used to...
