Long-haul diesel trucks carry the lion’s share of all shipped goods in the United States. The drivers of these trucks often live in these trucks for days, sometimes weeks, at a time as they deliver these goods. When stopped overnight, many of these drivers leave their engines idling to heat...
Page 112 seems to have been skipped by the publisher in page numbering. No page is missing. Discusses dredging methods and possible options for disposing of dredging spoils from Yaquina Bay. Includes maps of river segments showing possible disposal sites.
The polarization state of light in a single mode optical fiber may
be changed by linear and circular birefringence intrinsic to the fiber
or introduced by stress in the fiber due to external pressure, bends or
twists. Rotation of polarization may also occur in the absence of any
intrinsic or...
Thirty bone-in hams from market weight hogs were used
in this study, three groups of 10 each. One group was
brine-cured, frozen and stored (F/S) at -20°C for 90 days
prior to heat processing and smoking. A second group was
similarly cured and frozen, not stored (F/NS), but thawed
immediately,...
In order to reduce long-term idling along the Oregon I-5 corridor, the US Environmental Agency entered into a collaborative research and implementation program with Oregon State University, the Oregon Climate Trust, and Shurepower (producers of truckstop electrification equipment) to install Shurepower stations at truck stops in Oregon. This research component...
I construct and examine the properties of Lie and Clifford algebras which are used to describe certain types of particles. These algebras are then related to the traditional theory of division algebras. Quaternions are applied to these algebras and their properties are exploited to model physical properties of particles. The...
Congenital hearing loss is a common disorder and over 60 mutations in the sensory hair cell protein, otoferlin, have been linked to pre-lingual deafness. Although otoferlin is essential for hearing, the large size and low solubility of the protein have limited approaches to study its function on a molecular-level. To...
Following is a proposal for preparation of an Alsea Bay marine development
plan and graduate student internship as port manager. The plan would be
prepared during January - June 1984. Dr. Fred Smith and Jim Good have agreed to
supervise the plan preparation and provide university guidance.
