  • On the road to sustainability : Assessing Belize's fisheries management reform using a multiscalar governance approach

    Creator:
    Wade, Eric A.
    Abstract:
    The management of small-scale fisheries (SSF) around the world is facing increasing demands for reformation given ecological, social, and economic vulnerabilities. The governance of SSF is particularly important to foster the sustainability of these systems given that it combines regulatory instruments, interactive participation of diverse stakeholders, and the guiding values...

  • Decision-making in the Face of Uncertainty: Examining the Interplay between Social Relations and Loss Aversion in Small-Scale Fishing Communities in Jamaica

    Creator:
    Wade, Eric A.
    Abstract:
    Decision-making is a highly complex process influenced by the values, attitudes, and cognitive biases of the decision-maker. The classical model of decision-making fails to fully incorporate how decisions are made in situations of uncertainty, where having complete knowledge of all possible outcomes and alternatives is not always possible. In highly...

  • Segmenting single-family homebuilders on a measure of innovativeness

    Creator:
    Fell, David R.
    Abstract:
    The goal of this study is to provide a better understanding of new product adoption by single family homebuilders. Information from this study will be useful to producers of new and existing engineered wood products in targeting their market development efforts. Homebuilders are studied with the goal of segmenting them...

  • Fuel Dispersal Under LOCA Conditions

    Creator:
    Latimer, Griffen D.
    Abstract:
    Most operating power reactors use oxide fuel in the form of uranium oxide (UO2) which is robust against high temperatures but suffers from poor mechanical performance at high levels of burnup. Currently, the maximum average burnup in light water reactors in the US is 62.5 GWd/t, which is partially imposed...

  • Comparison of HEU and LEU neutron spectra in irradiation facilities at the Oregon State TRIGA® reactor

    Creator:
    Schickler, Robert
    Abstract:
    In 2008, the Oregon State TRIGA® Reactor (OSTR) was converted from highly-enriched uranium (HEU) fuel lifetime improvement plan (FLIP) fuel to low-enriched uranium (LEU) fuel. This effort was driven and supported by the Department of Energy's (DoE's) Reduced Enrichment for Research and Test Reactors (RERTR) program. The basis behind the...

  • Development of a Rapid Power Transient Critical Heat Flux Model

    Creator:
    Brown, Emory G.
    Abstract:
    The understanding of critical heat flux is crucial for the safety of nuclear reactors. To this end, many studies have been carried out to understand various aspects of the boiling crisis phenomenon. Power transient critical heat flux trigger mechanisms is a small category that is relatively under-studied and not well...

    Creator:
    Tellvik, Dani N.
    Abstract:
    In this piece of original work, I employ a Kunderian approach to fiction. The purpose of my novel is to examine how the causative element, a pivotal moment of change for a cast of characters, changes spatially and temporally. In Posthumously Yours, I explore themes of trauma, loss, and grief...

  • High Fidelity 3-Omega Probe Installation and Verification in a Scanning Electron Microscope

    Creator:
    Powers, Robert D.
    Abstract:
    There are efforts underway at Idaho National Laboratory to design, modify, and implement an array of techniques into a nuclear material ready Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) to accelerate comprehensive characterization of the physical properties and microstructures of irradiated fuels and materials. The goals of adding a micro four-point probe (M4PP)...

  • A Computational Fluid Dynamics Study on the Hydrodynamics for Tandem Plate Configurations under Turbulent Flow

    Creator:
    Gjemso, Jonathan
    Abstract:
    The subject of fluid-structure interactions (FSI) are a matter concerning the design of any element immersed in a fluid. One of the most critical phenomena embedded within the scope of FSI is the creation of vortex-induced vibrations (VIV). These type of vibrations originate in a given body as a result...
