  • Offloading of I/O transactions in current CPU architectures

    Creator:
    Larsen, Steen K.
    Abstract:
    IO transactions within a computer system have evolved along with other system components (i.e., CPU, memory, video) from programmed IO (PIO). In current mainstream systems (spanning from HPC to mobile) the IO transactions are CPU-centric descriptor-based DMA transactions. The key benefit is that slower IO devices can DMA write system...

  • Preparation and laboratory evaluation of stationary-phase iron-oxide-based adsorbents for removal of metals from waste waters

    Creator:
    May, Michael Lee
    Abstract:
    Several potential sorbent materials containing iron oxides were prepared and evaluated for potential to remove divalent metals from waste waters. These included a ferrihydrite-coated sand, maghemite incorporated in Dowex[Trademark] ion exchange resin, gothite and two thermally activated ferrihydrites. Attempts to prepare sorbents from steel shot by coating with ferrihydrite or...

  • "Born of ourselves" : gendered doubling and the femme fatale in Vernon Lee's ghost stories

    Creator:
    Delf, Liz
    Abstract:
    This thesis examines the characterization of the femme fatale and the implications of this trope for late-Victorian gender and sexuality in the ghost stories of female aesthete Vernon Lee. In her treatment of the femme fatale figure, Lee both reinforces and complicates the image of the sexualized, often bestialized woman...

  • The Coburg Wetland Self-guided Interpretive Trail: a case study in environmental interpretation planning

    Creator:
    Dunmire, Karen M.
    Abstract:
    The key to developing successful environmental interpretation is sound planning. This paper is a discussion of the principles of environmental interpretation and how they apply to the planning process. The Coburg Wetland is a 21 acre reserve located on the west side of lnterstate-5 in Coburg, Oregon. The city of...

  • Electronic Properties of Passive Films on Carbon Steel Rebar in Simulated Concrete Pore Solutions

    Creator:
    Williamson, Jon W.
    Abstract:
    In the highly alkaline environment of concrete, carbon steel rebar is protected against corrosion by a passive oxide/oxyhydroxide film. Understanding the characteristics of this passive film, and how it depassivates, is the key for mitigating problems associated with steel corrosion in concrete. Although a large number of electrochemical and analytical...

  • Surface Modification to Enhance Corrosion Resistance of Carbon Steels using Additive Manufacturing

    Creator:
    Murkute, Pratik V.
    Abstract:
    Low carbon steels (LCS) due to their high strength-to-cost ratio are one of the most ubiquitous materials used for a wide range of applications, including but not limited to automotive, construction, and transportation. However, the low corrosion resistance of LCS in neutral, acidic, or saline environments limits its utilization and...

  • Dixy Lee Ray, marine biology, and the public understanding of science in the United States (1930-1970)

    Creator:
    Ellis, Erik
    Abstract:
    This dissertation focuses on the life of Dixy Lee Ray as it examines important developments in marine biology and biological oceanography during the mid twentieth century. In addition, Ray's key involvement in the public understanding of science movement of the 1950s and 1960s provides a larger social and cultural context...

  • Selenoprotein W : Purification and characterization of its interaction with calmodulin

    Creator:
    Bauman, Andrew Thomas
    Abstract:
    Selenoprotein W (SeW) is a protein whose function is unknown, but potentially plays a vital role in calcium metabolism, as an indirect link has been established with white muscle disease (WMD). White muscle disease occurs in selenium deficient animals, and is characterized by the precipitation of calcium in muscle, leading...

  • The nonlinear optical properties of gallium arsenide pertaining to terahertz generation

    Creator:
    Hurlbut, Walter C.
    Abstract:
    Gallium arsenide shows excellent promise for terahertz generation using mid infrared. This is for two reasons. First, the indices of refraction for the terahertz (nTHz=3.61 at 1 THz) and mid infrared (nopt=3.431 at 2 μm) are close allowing a long interaction length. Second, the linear absorption is low at terahertz...

  • Generation and manipulation of THz waves

    Creator:
    Amer, Naaman
    Abstract:
    In this thesis I studied several THz components that can be used for potential THz technology. THz waves were generated in nonlinear medium via optical rectification of femtosecond optical pulses. Utilizing the phase matching condition between the optical and THz waves in a ZnTe crystal, single-cycle broad-band THz pulses were...
