Experimental studies of a partially defluidized bed with immersed heat exchange tubes

Creator:: Sitthiphong, Norkun
Abstract:: The object of this research study is to investigate and provide some fundamental information about bed slumping in a partially defluidized bed combustor. Due to the difficulty in making measurements and observations at high temperature, a dynamically similar cold phase fluidized bed was used to model the high temperature case....

A study of bubble size in a large particle fluidized bed at elevated temperatures

Creator:: Hockman, Jeffrey Nathan
Abstract:: The literature cites several examples of investigations made concerning the size of bubbles rising in small particle fluidized beds at room temperature. In many practical applications, however, fluidized beds require the use of large particles at very high temperatures. Despite this fact, little information has been reported on bubble size...

Conceiving A Colony: A Multi-Level Biocultural Analysis of the Maternal Stress-Preterm Birth Nexus in Puerto Rico

Creator:: Horan, Holly L.
Abstract:: This dissertation aims to elicit how a neo-colonial context shapes maternal and infant heath (MIH) outcomes by describing how they are socially, politically, historically, and culturally produced. Using a multi-level critical biocultural, medical anthropological research approach, the purpose of this research was to investigate maternal stress in the United States...

An assessment of a mesh-based method for slab-geometry transport in stochastic materials

Creator:: Bassett, Brody R.
Abstract:: There exists a variety of methods to solve the radiation transport equation in stochastic materials, including the Levermore-Pomraning method and the atomic mix method, each of which is designed to replicate the results given by benchmarks with materials rearranged in a randomized fashion. While the atomic mix method is very...

The development and maintenance of stream community structure and organization

Creator:: Wevers, Mary Jo
Abstract:: The goal of this study was to better understand stream communities through a perspective that might make their structure, organization, and development more understandable. This goal was approached through the following objectives: 1. To determine the assemblages of stream organisms and define subsystems within a stream community. 2. To explain...

Ascospore viability and dispersal from pruned branches infected with Anisogramma anomala

Creator:: Heckert, Stephanie
Abstract:: Viability and dispersal of ascospores of Anisogramma anomala, the cause of eastern filbert blight (EFB) on European hazelnut, from diseased branches pruned from trees were measured. In each of two years, branches bearing stromata of A. anomala were cut in mid-December and compared to branches cut near budbreak in March,...

Experimental evaluation and chemical modeling of hexavalent chromium adsorption, desorption, and reduction in a natural soil

Creator:: Azizian, Mohammed F.
Abstract:: Chromium and its compounds are widely used by modern industries, resulting in large quantities of this element being discharged into the environment. To remove chromium from contaminated soils and ground water, it is necessary to predict chemical and physical processes that control the rate of reactions and transport of chromium...

Methods of evaluation, effects of intermating and results of one cycle of S₁ family recurrent selection in barley

Creator:: Mareck, James
Abstract:: The focus of this study was to determine if S₁ family recurrent selection might be successfully used for barley improvement. Objectives were: 1) to identify suitable methods of evaluating grain yield in small plots, 2) to study the effects of intermating on mean values and variances of selected agronomic characters,...

Suppression of Microdochium Patch on Annual Bluegrass Putting Greens using Iron Sulfate, Phosphorous Acid, Sulfur, and Mineral Oil

Creator:: Mattox, Clint M.
Abstract:: Managing Microdochium patch on intensively manicured annual bluegrass putting greens is a challenge for turfgrass professionals in cool-humid climates similar to the Pacific Northwest. Fungicides are the predominant means to mitigate damage caused by this fungal pathogen, however pesticide restrictions are making it even more challenging to suppress Microdochium patch....

Quest for a Cure: Persistent Residual Incontinence Post-obstetric Fistula Repair in Uganda

Creator:: Ruder, Bonnie J.
Abstract:: Obstetric fistula is estimated to affect 1–2 million women worldwide, predominantly in low-resource countries in sub-Saharan Africa and southeast Asia. The primary intervention for obstetric fistula is surgery, which is described as a relatively simple surgical procedure with an extremely high psychosocial and economic benefit relative to cost. Research addressing...
