  • A modeling and empirical study of a novel bimodal natural gas internal combustion engine with fuel compression capability

    Creator:
    Elgin, Robert C., III
    Abstract:
    Given the current abundant supply and cheap price of natural gas (NG) in the United States, there is a significant opportunity to use this fuel for transportation. However, there are few fueling stations for consumers. To address this need, a dual-mode engine has been developed where in one mode all...

  • Development and Operation of a Self-Refueling Compressed Natural Gas Vehicle

    Creator:
    Elgin, Robert C., III and Hagen, Christopher L.
    Abstract:
    A dual-mode engine has been developed where in one mode all engine cylinders fire normally, providing locomotion for the vehicle. In the other mode, one cylinder of the engine is used to compress low pressure residential natural gas (NG), in multiple stages, to a standard U.S. compressed natural gas (CNG)...

  • Barriers to Community Involvement across Rural and Urban Communities

    Creator:
    Torgerson, Melissa
    Abstract:
    Many communities emphasize participatory involvement in local development or reinvention efforts. Recognizing barriers among specific groups could help community leaders identify what may be constraining underrepresented groups from joining in. Utilizing data from the Social Capital Benchmark Survey, this research examined identified “barriers” to community involvement among individuals in rural...

  • Bark chemicals from Shasta red fir as stiffening agents for corrugating medium

    Creator:
    Oregon Forest Research Center
    Abstract:
    In these tests, phenolic constituents from bark of Shasta red fir were found ineffective as stiffening agents for corrugating medium. Other means of application, however, may be effective. Gum from inner bark of Shasta red fir was not so effective as a beater additive as was locust bean gum, but...

  • Turning Brake Cylinder Housing

    Creator:
    Radcliffe, Noah
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this project is to assist the OSU Baja Racing vehicle in turning more sharply. This is done using a turning brake, which locks one rear wheel to facilitate turning on a smaller radius. This project focuses on the development of a custom cylinder housing for the turning...

  • A methodology for iterative design using physical test data

    Creator:
    Morris, Wesley T.
    Abstract:
    This thesis addresses a common knowledge gap that was identified amongst the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) competition design teams at Oregon State University. Students that join the SAE teams at Oregon State University typically do not have experience using physically collected data during a design process. This leads to...

  • Argon-41 production by the OSU TRIGA III reactor

    Creator:
    Meck, Robert Allen
    Abstract:
    A sensitive ion chamber-electrometer system was used to determine the Oregon State University TRIGA III reactor's ⁴¹Ar production rate as a function of steady state reactor power and production of ⁴¹Ar due to reactivity pulses up to $3.00. The relative contributions of the argon duct effluent and the pneumatic transfer...
