Momentum transfer in climbing-film flow in an annular duct was
investigated. Air and various liquids, with a wide range of viscosities
and surface tensions, were investigated. The two phases flowed co-currently
upward, the liquid climbing as a thin film on the inner wail
while the outer wall remained dry.
The...
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY The purpose of the study was to determine the effectiveness of televised instruction to aid in changing attitude toward problem solving. The study determined whether fifth and sixth grade students would demonstrate significant differences in: 1) attitude toward the nature of problem solving, 2) self-confidence in...
The spatial organization of farm units in Polk and Linn counties
in the mid-Willamette Valley has undergone significant change over
the past 30 years. Whereas most study areas operations in the
1930's and 1940's consisted of small family owned farms with contiguous
land bases, present mid-Willamette Valley units vary considerably...
Side-scan sonar records in Oregon's Coos Bay estuary navigation
channels were obtained at intervals of two to three months during the
November 1974 - October 1975 time period from Coos Bay Channel Mile
11+50 to 15+20, and from a reach in the Marshfield Channel. A limited
side-scan survey effort was...
Abstract: A series of 23 thin, mostly mud-silt turbidites are found interspersed between larger, well-dated and regionally correlated paleoseismic sandy turbidites that extend along most of the Cascadia margin, northwestern United States. Investigation of the structure, distribution, and sedimentology of these thin mud-silt units supports the interpretation of these units...
A method to measure consumers' housing consumption and
investment attitudes according to various dimensions was initiated.
In addition, construct validity of the measurement instrument was
initiated through use of personal variables.
Two scales were developed to measure homeownership consumption
and investment attitudes. The dimensions of homeownership consumption
and investment found...
Excavation of two archeological sites, 353A47 and 35JA49,
in the upper Applegate River Valley of southwestern Oregon was
conducted in 1978 by the Department of Anthropology, Oregon State
University. Site 353A47 is a multi-component site, of which only
the late-prehistoric stratum, containing one complete and two
partial housepits and a...
Twenty-four woven Pre-Columbian textiles in the
Apparel, Interiors and Merchandising Department (AIM) of
Oregon State University were reported to be from Ancon,
Peru. A methodology was developed to confirm the exact
provenance of the AIM textiles. Technical fabrication
characteristics were utilized to describe certain known
Ancon woven textiles and to...
The hypotheses of this study stated the following:
Interaction with the computer game will significantly
increase the class means in: (1) mathematical
achievement, (2) attitudes toward mathematics, and (3)
graphing ability in high school advanced algebra.
ALGEBRA ARCADE is a computerized simulation game
played on a coordinate grid. One can...
In 1982 a protohistoric archaeological site along the Applegate River in southwest Oregon was excavated by Oregon State University Department of Anthropology. Three housepits and a possible menstrual but were uncovered with lithic, faunal, and archaeobotanical elements recovered from house floors and hearths. Seven botanical taxa were represented by carbonized...
