The effects of diisocyanate-polyol resins on the properties of particleboard.

Creator:: Milota, Michael R.
Abstract:: The ability of the resin to deform plastically can be an important factor when considering the mechanical properties of particleboard. Between resin droplets there exists an unbonded region that forms the surface for a crack. When particleboard is deformed stress concentrations develop at the crack tips in the voids. A...

The effects of thin kiln sticks on the drying of two inch western hemlock lumber

Creator:: Horton, Robert Kenneth
Abstract:: New technology allows the production of thinner kiln sticks manufactured of phenolic resin impregnated paper which are both structurally and economically realistic. This project tested the effects of kiln stick thicknesses on dry kiln air circulation and on lumber drying degrade. Three variables, stick thickness (3/4, 9/16, 7/16 and 1/4...

The influence of various resin parameters on the physical properties of oak flakeboard

Creator:: Jay, Gregory Lynn
Abstract:: The substantial increase in resin costs due to the recent energy crisis, increased public awareness to the problem of free formaldehyde from boards bonded with urea-formaldehyde resins, and a projected increase in the production of exterior board have emphasized the need for new and substitute adhesive systems. One new development...

A multiple criteria Markovian Decision Process

Creator:: Sohn, Sangwon
Abstract:: A composite system of a Markovian Decision Process with multiple criteria involves both discounting criteria and nondiscounting criteria. The measurement of the discounting criteria is chosen to be the total sum of the payoffs over the time horizon and the measurement of the non-discounting criteria is chosen to be the...

Regional variation of pull factors for retail sales in Oregon's nonmetropolitan counties 1979, 1982, 1984

Creator:: Corcoran, Patrick
Abstract:: The performance of pull factors for total retail sales in Oregon's nonmetropolitan counties during the economic cycle of boom, bust, and recovery of the early 1980s is examined for geographic patterns. One regional pattern and several county patterns are identified and discussed. Counties having the highest and lowest pull factors,...

Alkylation of peptides and proteins by S-(2-chloroethyl)glutathione and characterization of adducts by mass spectrometry

Creator:: Erve, John C. L.
Abstract:: Glutathione, a ubiquitous intracellular tripeptide, protects cells by reacting with electrophiles and radicals that can damage cellular macromolecules. However, glutathione conjugation is now recognized as one mechanism by which drugs and xenobiotics can also be converted to reactive intermediates having toxic consequences to cells. The halogenated alkane 1,2-dichloroethane forms S-(2-chloroethyl)...

Some aspects of currents in Long Island Sound

Creator:: Swanson, R. Lawrence (Robert Lawrence), 1938-
Abstract:: Current observations were obtained at three locations forming a cross section along 70°34'W longitude in Long Island Sound. Fifteen days of data were selected from each series so that nearly simultaneous observations were used in the analysis. Elementary statistics were computed for the data prior to performing a least squares...

Characterizing the Spread and Consequences of Mycoplasma ovipneumoniae on Bighorn Sheep (Ovis canadensis) in the Northern Basin and Range Ecosystem

Creator:: Spaan, Robert S.
Abstract:: North American bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis) have experienced significant declines and population extirpations due to novel pathogens such as Mycoplasma ovipneumoniae. This disease continues to limit the population restoration of bighorn sheep. Therefore, understanding the demographic consequences of pathogen presence and the risk of contact between bighorn populations and potential...

Recent policy change in developed-site recreation management in two federal agencies

Creator:: Bradford, Paul F.
Abstract:: In the past 3-5 years, two federal agencies, the Forest Service (FS) and the National Park Service (NPS), have initiated pilot programs in concessioner-operation of developed-site government recreation facilities, specifically family campgrounds and related facilities. These programs have been generally successful by agency measure, and consequently, both agencies have modified...
