Performance evaluation and design of multiple time series based forecasting systems

Creator:: Chen, Kuei-Lin
Abstract:: The study evaluates performances of three multiple time series (MTS) forecasting methods; investigates possible improvements in MTS forecasting operations, and proposes a multiple time series based forecasting system. Time series considered are finite, linear, covariance stationary, and discrete. Specific objectives for the thesis were: (a) conducting comparative studies of MTS...

Effects of the self-consistency principle of behavior change and the retroflexive reformation process of group counseling on the academic achievement and behavior of selected high school students

Creator:: Shirts, Elmo Bryant
Abstract:: This exploratory study was undertaken to determine the combined effects which two rather unique approaches in the fields of counseling and psychotherapy might have on the behavior and academic achievement of ten selected deviant high school students. These approaches have been termed the 1) self-consistency approach to behavior change and...

Fine scale foraging behavior of gray whales in relation to prey fields and vessel disturbance along the Oregon Coast

Creator:: Sullivan, Florence A.
Abstract:: The desire to understand the spatial and temporal drivers of animal behavior and distribution relative to scale is central to movement ecology. Optimal foraging theory states that a predator should continue exploiting a patch until it is no longer profitable to do so. As human developments increasingly encroach on the...

Chemometrics-based Approach for Predicting Low Temperature Combustion Engine Fuel Performance

Creator:: Daly, Shane
Abstract:: Low temperature combustion (LTC) engines offer improved efficiency and reduced emissions over traditional gasoline spark-ignited and diesel compression-ignition engines. The ability to produce fuels optimized for LTC engines could help increase efficiency and therefore improve fuel economy, insomuch that Federal fuel economy standards could be met. Currently, a fuel performance...

Influence of atmospheric humidity and free water on germination and germ tube growth of Botrytis cinerea Pers.

Creator:: Carre, Deborah Danielle
Abstract:: The influence of atmospheric humidity and free water on germination and germ tube growth of Botrytis cinerea Pers. ex Fr. was studied. Relative humidities (RH) were maintained inside insulated humidity chambers with sulfuric acid solutions of the appropriate concentrations. Insulation was necessary to reduce the incidence of condensation caused by...

Investigation, analysis and design of the linear brushless doubly-fed machine

Creator:: Seifkhani, Farroh
Abstract:: This thesis covers the efforts of the design, analysis, characteristics, and construction of a Linear Brush less Doubly-Fed Machine (LBDFM), as well as the results of the investigations and comparison with its actual prototype. In recent years, attempts to develop new means of high-speed, efficient transportation have led to considerable...

Monitoring sand dune processes at the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area : can pre-vegetated conditions be restored?

Creator:: Mitteager, Wendy Ann
Abstract:: The Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area is managed by the Siuslaw Forest division of the United States Forest Service (USFS). This area has gradually been overcome by vegetation since the 1950's, originating with the exotic European Beach Grass (Ammophila arenaria). The invasion of this exotic vegetation has resulted in a...

A Review and Recommendations for Assessing Floodplain Vegetation Recovery Following Stage 0 and Beaver Dam Analog Restorations in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Colley, Lara K. M.
Abstract:: Floodplains are a significant and increasingly threatened ecosystem. As restoration projects are implemented more frequently in degraded floodplains, novel methods are emerging with a focus on restoring critical processes in which vegetation plays a key role. The purpose of this paper is two-fold: 1) to develop expectations for vegetation response,...

Investigation of Destratification in Warehouses

Creator:: Polander, Michael D.
Abstract:: A significant source of energy consumption comes from maintaining desired indoor environment conditions in warehouses and other industrial facilities. In efforts to combat the raising energy costs, studies into more efficient heating and cooling strategies has been a topic of consideration for a number of years. One of the areas...

Chronological variation in soil density and vegetative cover of compacted skid trails in clearcuts of the western Oregon Cascades

Creator:: Vanderheyden, Jon
Abstract:: This study evaluated the recovery of compacted soils on logging skid trails in clearcuts of the western Cascade Mountains of Oregon. Soil types included clay, clay loam, silt loam, loam, sandy loam and loamy sands. Sites ranged in age from five to 38 years since harvest and 370 to llOOm...
