Possible effectiveness of a novel multimodal school-based program, EMPATHY, to reduce substance misuse in youth: A mixed methods intervention
DownloadSpring 2017
Substance misuse in Canada is a major individual and public health issue, with evidence suggesting that in many cases it starts during youth. Reducing rates of misuse is therefore important. In 2013, an estimated 3.1 million Canadians over the age of 15 used at least one of 6 illicit substances...

Predictive value of magnetic resonance imaging of disc displacement for temporomandibular disorder signs and symptoms in a pre-orthodontic adolescent patient population
DownloadFall 2009
The purpose of this retrospective study was to examine the predictive value of quantitative MRI disc displacement for changes of TMD signs and symptoms in a pre-orthodontic adolescent patient sample. The sample consisted of fifty-five adolescent patients who had baseline temporomandibular joint...

Relationships among diverse root foraging behaviours: understanding plant behavioural types
DownloadSpring 2014
Behaviours capture the functional response of plants to environmental factors. I explore behaviours for twenty co-occurring grassland species in response to common belowground environmental factors (competition, mycorrhizae, heterogeneous and high nutrients) and their relationship to plant...

Shear Behaviour of Concrete Slabs and Beams Reinforced with High-Performance ASTM A1035 Steel
DownloadFall 2013
High-performance steel bars manufactured to conform to ASTM A1035-11 have different metallurgy and microstructure than conventional reinforcing steel. These changes result in an effective yield strength significantly higher than conventional ASTM A615 steel while also being less susceptible to...

Fall 2012
Hooked end steel fibers were included between 0~1% by volume to provide enhanced shear resistance to three different types of steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) namely, a regular concrete mix, a lightweight aggregate mix and a high strength mix. The test results at the material scale showed a...
