on the basis of their trajectories to dissolution. One hundred
and seven divorced individuals were interviewed. This interview
consisted of three parts. First,...
This study analyzes the impact of the 1980 Staggers
Rail Act (SRA) on Pacific Northwest (Oregon, Washington,
Idaho and Montana) wheat transportation.
A minimum cost uncapacitated transshipment network
flow model is employed to simulate the origination and
destination pattern of grain flows before (1977) and after
(1985) the SRA. The...
The Central Oregon High Cascade Range is an anomalously mafic segment of the
Cascade Arc due to ongoing intra-arc extension, which allows most magmas to traverse
the crust without stalling and evolving to more evolved compositions. North Sister, a
composite volcano in this arc segment, has produced a seemingly monotonous...

This thesis describes a control tool for managers of a
Broiler Breeder Farm, a farm which raises chickens for the purpose
of fertile egg production. It presents the development of
a simulation of a Broiler Breeder Farm which uses a deterministic
step by step process to generate expected values of...
