The thesis area consists of approximately thirty square miles in the Southern Cascades of Washington near Mount Adams. The oldest exposed rocks are sedimentary volcanic clastics and pyroclastic flows of late-Oligocene age that form a homocline in the northwest corner of the area. A thick pile of younger Tertiary lavas,...

Two digestibility trials using sheep were conducted to determine
the digestibility coefficients of a commercially processed NaOH treated
annual ryegrass straw cube. Comparisons were made with loose, chopped
ryegrass straw and a ryegrass straw cube processed with molasses as a
binder.
The NaOH cubed straw was produced by spraying a...
Most existing methods for generating individual task time estimates in production systems where jobs move through various manually operated workstations remain tedious and time consuming. For existing systems, average task times may vary considerably from prior estimates causing system inefficiencies, poor scheduling and poor planning decisions. Accurate and up-to-date estimates...

This study examined the relationships among authoritarian
parental attitudes, home environments, parental attitudes
toward the children's freedom, and the cognitive performances
of kindergarten children. Socioeconomic status of the family
and sex of child and parent differences were also examined.
Subjects consisted of 73 pairs of Korean parents and their

At signalized intersections, pedestrians are considered to be amongst the most vulnerable. When in the crosswalk at intersections without protected left-turn phasing, pedestrians are particularly at risk from left-turning vehicles. Until recently, a wide variety of indications were in use across the US to indicate a permissive left-turn condition to...
While the locomotion performance of legged robots over flat terrain or known obstacles has improved over the past few decades, they have yet to equal the performance of their animal counterparts over variable terrain. This work analyzes a multi-legged reduced order model of cockroach locomotion on variable slopes which will...
There are many different types of automatic data collection technologies that have been used in transportation system applications such as pneumatic tubes, radar, video cameras, inductive loops detectors, wireless toll tags, and global positioning systems (GPS). Nevertheless, there are still multiple examples of important and helpful transportation system data that...
