Today's university library has many digitally accessible resources, both indexes to content and considerable original content. Using off-the-shelf search technology provides a single point of access into library resources, but we have found that such full-text indexing technology is not entirely satisfactory for library searching.
In response to this, we...
Nanoscale Instrumented Indentation Testing (IIT) is a material characterization technique that is used to determine mechanical properties. The size effects present at this scale make it difficult to expand findings to a bulk scale. Modeling can be used to bridge this gap and better understand nanoscale IIT and the size...
A system's analysis study utilizing Resource Planning and
Management System network methodology, integer programming, and
goal programming is presented. The integrated approach is developed
and applied to the rare metals production process of the Oregon
Metallurgical Corporation (OREMET). As defined by OREMET
management, optimization of the production process required the...

The major objective of this research was to develop a general descriptive and statistical base of information concerning agricultural cooperatives private motor vehicle operations in the Pacific Northwest states of Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and Washington. The specific objectives of the study were: (1) to determine the number, sizes, types, and...
Due to their viscoelastic properties, polymers and hydrogels are widely used in many applications. In this study, the viscoelastic properties of elastomer polymers were investigated for a series of hydrogel, hydrogel composites and silicon materials. A primary application for hydrogels and hydrogel composites is as a replacement for the degenerated...
Due to a combination of misinterpretation and misleading illustration, the premise of a “tongue map”, which indicated that sweetness could only be detected at the front of the tongue and bitterness could only be detected on the back, became wide spread. In fact, all taste qualities can be detected on...
Historically fire has been the primary disturbance factor in the sagebrush-steppe. The settlement of the West by Euro-Americans, grazing by domestic livestock, and the concomitant spread of invasive species have altered the historical fire regime. Understanding the long-term vegetation structure and fuel succession of the various sagebrush-dominated communities of this...
