Advances in combustor technologies are driving aircraft gas turbine engines to operate at higher pressures,
temperatures and equivalence ratios. A viable approach for protecting the combustor from the
high-temperature environment is to inject air through the holes drilled on the surfaces. However, it is
possible that the air intended for...

Two-photon, planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) of carbon-monoxide (CO) and two-dimensional thermometry employing two-color, hydroxyl radical (OH) PLIF are used to characterize atmospheric-pressure inverse diffusion flames. These flames are important tools to aid the understanding of secondary reaction zones that may form in gas turbine engines when film-cooling air reacts with...

The purpose of this project was to create a code generating software tool, which is one section of the Oregon SpeedCode Universe. The Code Generator automatically generates compilable source code to form working Macintosh applications. This source code provides a prototype for the actual final application. This is done with...
Tabletop role-playing games (TRPG) such as Dungeons & Dragons™ are widely known and enjoyed by diverse individuals across the world. However, TRPGs and their players historically have experienced significant stigmatization due to the misconception by some that fantasy role play leads to psychological dysfunction. While a large body of research...
Anthropogenic climate change is an escalating environmental and humanitarian emergency, but American public opinion varies on the issue, particularly in terms of whether climate change is natural or human caused. Belief that climate change is human caused has been shown to be critical in terms of support for policy action....
The accessions used to create the Snap Bean Diversity Panel were 150 snap bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) cultivars and breeding lines selected from North American and European germplasm to create a population that is representative of the snap bean market class from a historical and geographical viewpoint. This panel was developed...
Processors need broccoli with better quality traits than what is available in cultivars developed for California and Mexico fresh markets. Farmers need to reduce labor costs of broccoli production by mechanizing harvest. Most contemporary commercially available cultivars are not suitable for either mechanical harvest or processing. The objective of the...
Approximately 600,000 individuals will be eventually released from the prison system and millions will be released from jails across the United States each year (Mukamal et al., 2015). Some of these individuals will make their way to a local community college to make a better life for themselves. There is...
The development of several sub-fields of general economics, including those of bounded rationality, institutional economics and the evolutionary economics, has expanded the scope and intensity of the dialogue both within economics, as well as between economists and other scientists. One of the more important preoccupations of early evolutionary economics was...
Recent literature on trade in fisheries products and in factors of production for fishing can be used to ask when it might be welfare increasing to encourage government financial transfers (GFTs) in the fisheries. Using numerical techniques and assuming a small open one factor 2 good economy with production inefficiencies...
The Artemisia ludoviciana polyploid complex is a highly polymorphic
assembledge of eight taxa in the Pacific Northwest, with a
chromosome base number of x=9. A cytogenetic analysis of this
complex was carried out to determine the sources of its variation,
the types of polyploidy present, and the genetic processes active...
The Purpose: The purpose of this study is to develop an original validated Lickert-type attitudinal survey instrument and administer it to selected samples of teachers and students in the Mid-Willamette Valley of Oregon to determine their attitude toward the "purposes," "functions," and "responsibilities" of student councils and place these results...
Biological attributes and alteration of the habitat of Labops
hesperius Uhler were investigated on rangeland seeded to crested
wheatgrass near Vale, Oregon, and on rangeland seeded to crested
and intermediate wheatgrass near Seneca, Oregon. Nymphs and
adults were present at Vale from late March until mid-June and at
Seneca from...
This research emphasized fundamental physical and electrochemical
studies of systems based on the room temperature fused salt, triethyl-ammonium
dichlorocuprate(I). Such systems, which must be maintained
under a protective atmosphere, were also used in some preliminary
battery studies.
Spectra of dark green solutions of copper (II) chloride in
triethylammonium dichlorocuprate(I) obey...
