The effects of round, square, and reentrant entrances on flow
regimes and local heat transfer coefficients were determined using a symmetrical,
plane-wall two-dimensional, subsonic air diffuser with one
of the diverging walls heated and maintained isothermal.
Flow and heat transfer studies were made at total divergence
angles ranging from 0...
To study the combined effects of seedling quality and fertilization at the time of planting, three experiments were established in western Oregon during the winter of 2000. The first experiment investigated the effect of preplanting rootvolume and fertilization rate on the field performance of 1+1 Douglas-fir seedlings during two growing...
In the majority of management scenarios, it is imperative that beef replacement heifers calve at two years of age. In order to achieve this goal, yearling heifers should reach 60 to 65% of their mature body weight by 13 months of age. Feed costs represent 75 to 80% of the...
Conventional management approaches have not been successful in protecting fisheries resources from decline either globally or in the Caribbean. Over the past 20 years co-management has emerged as a dominant paradigm when thinking about responsible fisheries in the Caribbean. At the same time there has been growing recognisition of the...
The Nearctic species of the genus Sympherobius
Banks are revised. Seventeen species are recorded from
the region. Two new species, S. constrictus and S.
quadricuspis are described from California and Arizona
respectively. Four new specific synonyms are proposed
(junior synonym(s) first): S. brunneus Nakahara and S.
stangei Nakahara = S....
In shallow water, any two waves of the same frequency are shown to produce complex patterns of
drift velocity above the sea bed. If the longshore components λ₁, λ₂ of the wave numbers of the two
waves are different, these steady flow patterns exhibit a longshore periodicity of wave number...
This publication is the third in a series of circulars de signed to assist the graduate engineer in reviewing engineering subject matter in order to prepare for registration examinations. As in the first publication of the series, most of the illustrative problems are taken from recent examinations of the Oregon...
Federal legislation requires that governmental programs be evaluated on a wide set of criteria to provide policymakers with information on the achievement or lack of achievement of goals and/or objectives. A methodology to identify and quantify measures of achievement is described. In addition, the methodology is designed to facilitate the...
