The Building of a ‘Harmonious World’ and the Conflict of the Confucius Institute

Creator:: Flatt, Tomena M.
Abstract:: The Confucius Institutes program is a Chinese organization established in 2004 to provide the world with language instruction and increase cultural awareness. The program forms joint venture business models with universities and schools around the world to establish language and culture centers on their school’s campus (“Constitution and By-Laws”). Over...

A Framework for Designing Task-Specific Robot Hands Based on Task Decomposition and Sub-Task Performance Benchmarks

Creator:: Campbell, Joshua M.
Abstract:: As technologies like 3D printing increase in prevalence and capabilities, having a robot hand specifically designed for a given manipulation task also becomes more feasible. Leading to the question of how to design a robot hand for a specific manipulation task. To answer this question, I propose we need three...

Development of a Boiling Surface Effectiveness Parameter by Modeling and Quantifying the Net Coolant Flow Rate

Creator:: Harrison, Matt
Abstract:: Boiling dynamics and related heat transfer mechanisms have been widely studied for several decades. During that time, incredible progress has been made on quantifying bubble departure phenomena including growth rate, departure frequency, associated natural and forced convection, and radiation additions to the overall heat transfer rate. With this, the thermal...

Comparing the United States West Coast Marine Protected Area levels of protection and their effectiveness to retain viable habitat connectivity with increasing human uses and global change

Creator:: Kesling, Joshua
Abstract:: Coastal communities rely on the abundant ecosystem services derived from robust conservation areas in offshore marine waters (Campbell, 2019). United Nations member states support the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) framework, wherein the 14th guideline asserts the importance of life under water. Protected marine environments are critical to the survival of...

Thermal and Aerodynamic Effects of Surface Roughness Patterns on Additive Manufactured Heat Sinks

Creator:: Lundeen, Samuel L.
Abstract:: Breakthroughs in heat sink design are now limited by conventional manufacturing techniques which can only produce basic fin shapes with homogenous surface structuring. Additive Manufacturing (AM) is a potential disruptive technology for heat sink design and other convective heat transfer solutions, as surface properties can be directionally varied to maximize...

Personality Predictors of Distracted Driving

Creator:: Sween, Madison, Weller, Joshua, Ceschi, Andrea, Sartori, Riccardo, and Tommasi, Francesco
Abstract:: Objective: Cell phone use while driving (CPUWD) is an increasingly predominant form of distracted driving. Given the widespread prevalence of CPUWD, it is important for researchers to identify who is more likely to engage in this risky behavior. Prior research has focused largely on adolescent and young adult populations, and...

Associations Between Parenting Practices and Decision-Making Competence inEmerging Adults: A Prospective Study

Creator:: Michaels, Linsie
Abstract:: Developmental research has suggested that parenting practices may impact the development of risk behaviors later in life. However, little evidence exists regarding how parenting may impact actual decision processes that precede poor choices. This study examined how parenting practices in early childhood influence the development of decision-making competence (DMC), a...

Temperature Dependence of Cu₃₋xSb₁₋[subscript y]M[subscript y]S₄ (M=Sn,Ge) Resistivity and Thermopower

Creator:: Mutch, Joshua
Abstract:: An experimental apparatus is modified to allow measurements of the Seebeck coefficient and resistivity to be taken simultaneously. This apparatus is designed for bulk and thin film samples between temperatures of 10 K and 300 K. The apparatus is constructed such that these simultaneous measurements do not interfere with each...

Investigating the Validity of the Mayer-Salovey-Caruso Emotional Intelligence Test (MSCEIT)

Creator:: Landin, Joshua M.
Abstract:: study investigated the validity of the Perceiving Emotions branch of the Mayer-Salovey- Caruso Emotional Intelligence Test (MSCEIT). This was conducted through a correlational analysis with three previously validated measures of nonverbal communication proficiency; The Profile of Nonverbal Communication (PONS), the Diagnostic Analysis of Nonverbal Accuracy-2 (DANVA2), and the Affective Communication...

Basin-wide distributed modeling of hydrologic responses to irrigation management in the Wood River Basin, Klamath County, OR

Creator:: Owens, Joshua M.
Abstract:: The Wood River Basin lies upstream of Upper Klamath Lake, the main reservoir of the USBR Klamath Irrigation Project that provides irrigation water to 210,000 acres of downstream land. Water allocation became a contentious issue in 2001 when drought led to curtailment of irrigation deliveries to the Klamath Irrigation Project...
