Soil and growth studies in Douglas-fir [Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco] stands near Molalla, Oregon

Creator:: Strand, Robert Fenton
Abstract:: In 1957 three Douglas-fir stands (15-, 25-, and 40-year-old age classes) were selected on a tree farm in the Cascade foothills of northwestern Oregon to study factors affecting site productivity. Soil-moisture, soil-temperature and seasonal radial- growth pattern measurements were made with a Colman moisture meter and a dial gauge dendrometer...

The effect of biological deterioration on the performance of nailed oriented strand board sheathing to Douglas-fir framing member connections

Creator:: Kent, Scott M.
Abstract:: Service life prediction models for light-framed wood structures require an extensive quantity of empirical data on deterioration pathologies for the numerous structural components, as well as mechanistic approaches to determine their capacity at various levels of deterioration. The data and models presented in this study satisfy a portion of the...

Bending property enhancement of wood strand composite using viscoelastic thermal compression

Creator:: Rathi, Vardan M.
Abstract:: The fundamental intent of the study was to develop an innovative wood-strand composite for use in structural applications. Plantation grown, low density, hybrid poplar was used in the study which was found to be appropriate for the underlying Viscoelastic Thermal Compression (VTC) process. Wood modified by this process has high...

Nanoparticle features and their relative influence on biological responses

Creator:: Denluck, Lindsay
Abstract:: Nanoparticles (NPs), defined as materials having at least one dimension (height, width, diameter) in the nanoscale, are increasingly being incorporated into a wide variety of products and are replacing traditional bulk materials in many applications. This is because they can be more efficacious, more sustainable, and can have unique characteristics...

Developmental toxicity of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons : defining mechanisms with systems-based transcriptional profiling

Creator:: Goodale, Britton C.
Abstract:: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous in the environment as components of fossil fuels and by-products of combustion. Defining toxicity mechanisms for this large family of multi-ring structures and substituted derivatives is a substantial challenge. Several PAHs, such as benzo(a)pyrene (BaP), are mutagenic, toxic to wildlife, and classified as probable...

Structural geology of the Morales Canyon and Taylor Canyon region of the Cuyama basin, southern Coast Ranges, California

Creator:: Calhoun, Jeannette A.
Abstract:: Early structural influences on the Cuyama basin include Oligocene extension followed by early Miocene wrench faulting. Evidence of wrench faulting is obscured by Pleistocene thrust faulting. Detailed surface and subsurface structural analysis was used to separately examine the effects of each structural regime. The northwest-trending, right-lateral Russell fault was the...

Molecular cloning and analysis of the infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus genome and development of a subunit vaccine

Creator:: Gilmore, Robert D. (Robert Dean), 1956-
Abstract:: Complementary DNA (cDNA) clones were generated from the RNA genome of infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) by using random DNA oligomers to prime first strand synthesis. These clones were mapped to their respective locations on the genome and used to determine the nucleotide sequence of the nucleocapsid (N) gene and...

Geologic structure of the Upper Ojai Valley and Chaffee Canyon areas, Ventura County, California

Creator:: Huftile, Gary J.
Abstract:: The Upper Ojai Valley is a tectonic depression between opposing reverse faults, Its northern border is formed by the active, north-dipping San Cayetano fault with 6.0 km of dip-slip displacement in the Silverthread oil field and 2.6 km displacement west of Sisar Creek; the fault dies out farther west in...

Edward_Le_PhD_Dissertation.pdf

Creator:: Le, Edward A.
Abstract:: In wood-based composites, the glue-line (interface) between wood-strands affects the stress transfer from one member to the next. The glue-line properties determine the rate of load transfer between phases and these properties depend on wood species, surface preparation, glue properties, glue penetration into wood cells, and moisture content of the...
