  • The Kalispel Tribe of Indian’s Contemporary Usage of Traditional Foodways

    Creator:
    Hilborn, Alexander M.
    Abstract:
    Native American traditional foodways serve as one of the most important resources for indigenous communities because these resources provide a variety of non-physical cultural assets and health benefits to Native groups through the medium of food. The demolition of North America’s foodways through colonization has had adverse effects on indigenous...

  • The Alexander polynomial

    Creator:
    Scherich, Nancy
    Abstract:
    The Alexander polynomial is a well understood classical knot invariant with interesting symmetry properties and recent applications in knot Floer homology. There are many different ways to compute the Alexander polynomial, some involving algebraic techniques and others more geometric or combinatorial approaches. This is an interesting example of how different...

  • Capacitive coupling compensation facilitating single-pole switching on six-phase transmission lines

    Creator:
    Al-Shehri, Abdallah M.
    Abstract:
    In this research, a novel shunt compensation scheme design procedure is developed for unbalanced, untransposed n-phase transmission lines. The main function of the scheme is to reduce the effect of the capacitive coupling on untransposed transmission lines to levels where successful single-pole switching is assured. The analysis procedure is carried...

  • A second look at Alexander Pope and Newtonian science

    Creator:
    Reid, Tim S.
    Abstract:
    "This Long Disease, My Life": Alexander Pope and the Sciences by Marjorie Nicolson and G.S. Rousseau has been the standard work on Alexander Pope and Newtonian science ever since it was published in 1968. Literary scholars and biographers continue to be swayed by its influence. Unfortunately, the work they so...

  • Hybrid computer simulation of wind-driven ocean currents

    Creator:
    Vithayathil, Francis Joseph
    Abstract:
    A simulation method using a hybrid computer is developed in this dissertation to enhance the study of wind-driven ocean circulation. The simulation is based on the mathematical model developed by Ekman. Pure digital simulation is not economical due to excessive computer time required for the solution of the partial differential...

  • Ensemble-variational data assimilation for dynamically challenging coastal ocean circulation

    Creator:
    Pasmans, Ivo
    Abstract:
    Currently, forecasts produced by the Oregon-Washington (OR-WA) Coastal Ocean Forecast System are constrained by assimilation of only surface observations. The 4-dimensional variational (4DVAR) data assimilation (DA) algorithm is utilized to combine the model and the data, with the time-independent forecast ("background'') error covariance B. In this study, two possible improvements...

  • Life-Cycle and Playability Analysis of Natural Turfgrass and Synthetic Infill Playing Surfaces Under Field Conditions

    Creator:
    Daviscourt Brian L.
    Abstract:
    The perception of a long-term cost advantage of synthetic infill turf systems relative to natural grass systems has contributed to a rise in their popularity in the USA. However, few comprehensive cost assessments of natural grass and synthetic infill systems exist. There are also no studies looking at interactions between...

  • Coastal ocean variability inferred from high resolution models : two case studies

    Creator:
    Mauch, Matthew L.
    Abstract:
    In this thesis, high resolution ocean models are used to evaluate and forecast coastal ocean variability in two different applications. In the first study, the 2-km resolution ocean circulation model for the Eastern Bering Sea is utilized to understand whether slope-interior exchange along the path of the Aleutian North Slope...

  • Interactions of wind-driven and tidally-driven circulation in the Oregon coastal ocean

    Creator:
    Osborne, John J.
    Abstract:
    Influences of tidal and slower (subtidal) oceanic flows over the continental shelf and slope off Oregon are studied using a high-resolution ocean circulation model and comparative model-data analyses. The model is based on the Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS), a fully nonlinear, three-dimensional model (using hydrostatic and Boussinesq approximations). The...
