Turning Back the Calendar: An Analysis of Main Street USA’s use of Nostalgia

Creator:: Cox, Travis L.
Abstract:: Main Street USA in Southern California’s Disneyland theme park is often described as nostalgic. However, previous research on this subject has failed to identify what elements actually make Main Street USA nostalgic as well as determine why Disney uses this nostalgia to influence park guests. In order to respond to...

Extensional characterization of weakly-viscoelastic fluids : methods & applications

Creator:: Marshall, Kristin A.
Abstract:: The addition of macromolecules to solvent, even in dilute quantities, can significantly alter a fluid's response in an extensional, or stretching, flow. When high-molecular-weight polymers are extended in solution, extensional thickening can result, yielding viscosities that are orders of magnitude larger than values found in shear. Examples of applications where...

Investigating the Effect of Tetrahydrofuran (THF) Plasticizer on the Crystallization and Solvent Seaming of PET/NPG Copolymer Films

Creator:: Srivastava, Aarushi
Abstract:: Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) polymer has been the material of choice for packaging industry as a result of its excellent mechanical and physical properties. These properties are highly dependent on the microstructure, chemistry, and processing conditions of this material. PET is often oriented in the machine direction (MD), the transverse direction...

SwannBritanyM2017.pdf

Creator:: Swann, Britany and Swann, Britany M.
Abstract:: Additive manufacturing and 3D printing have become household names as both hobbyistsand industrial manufacturers utilize fast, inexpensive prototyping and production of functionalparts. Additive manufacturing is being revolutionized with 3D printers such as theMulti Jet Fusion 3D from HP, Inc., where each volume pixel, or voxel, can be independentlyfunctionalized. Voxel-by-voxel printing...

Western juniper encroachment into aspen communities in the Northwest Great Basin

Creator:: Wall, Travis G.
Abstract:: In the Northwest Great Basin, aspen (Populus tremuloides) communities uniquely contribute to the biodiversity of a semi-arid, sagebrush-dominated landscape. In this same region, western juniper (Juniperus occidentalis) is encroaching into aspen stands. This study determined the timing, extent, and some of the effects of this expansion. Aspen stands below 2,133...

Proposal of an Automated Workflow for Appropriate Tile Drainage Simulation in Denitrifying Bioreactor Planning and Design

Creator:: Grohman, Travis A.
Abstract:: Denitrifying bioreactors are an edge-of-field treatment technology particularly well suited for nitrate removal from subsurface (tile) drainage effluent of agricultural lands. The effectiveness of a proposed denitrifying bioreactor is site-specific and depends upon the complicated interplay of field and environmental parameters controlling discharge events, nitrate concentrations, subsurface temperatures, dissolved oxygen...

Topometric Analysis for High-throughput Phenotyping of Seed Shattering in Perennial Ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.)

Creator:: Tubbs, Travis B.
Abstract:: Seed shattering is a constraint to improvement of seed yield in Lolium perenne L. and as a result, seed retention is an essential trait for this valuable crop. Field studies were conducted near Corvallis, OR in two years (2017-2018 and 2018-2019) to identify genetic variation for seed retention and to...

Environmental controls on the capacity of tansy ragwort (Senecio jacobaea L.) to compensate for defoliation by cinnabar moth (Tyria jacobaeae L.)

Creator:: Cox, Caroline Shipley
Abstract:: To assess the effect of summer moisture stress on the capacity of tansy ragwort (Senecio jacobaea L.) to compensate for defoliation by the cinnabar moth (Tyria jacobaeae LT7), the performance of plants grown under different irrigation regimes was measured. The proportion of plants producing new leaves following defoliation, the number...

Frequency-Dependent Rheological Characterization of Viscoelastic Materials Using Magnetic Nanoparticle Probes

Creator:: Myers, Renee C.
Abstract:: Extending rheological characterization methods to very small length scales is of interest. AC susceptometry using magnetic nanoparticle probes has been proposed for measurement of frequency-dependent rheological properties at the nanoscale. As this technique has been primarily used for ideally Newtonian fluids, this research aimed to extend this technique to viscoelastic...
