Spring 2018
Grade 91 steel is one of the most important 9-12% Cr creep strength enhanced ferritic (CSEF) steels used in fossil-fuel fired power plants. A narrow heat-affected zone with heterogeneous structures is generated in the base metal, due to non-equilibrium phase transformations during the arc welding...

Preparation and Characterization of Immunomodulatory Peptides from Spent Hen Muscle Proteins
DownloadSpring 2016
Each year the egg industry produces about 18 million spent hens in Canada. Since a viable market is not available, spent hens are a liability to the egg producers who have to pay the cost associated with disposal. The overall objective of this thesis was to prepare and characterize bioactive...

Mannell (1996) describes psychologically deep experiences (PDEs) “as special, out-of-the-ordinary, or meaningful” experiences that typically involve altered perceptions of time, self, and surroundings (p. 405). This dissertation focuses on four PDEs— Turner’s (1969) Communitas, Kaplan and...

Re-Sampling the Ensemble Kalman Filter for Improved History Matching and Characterizations of Non-Gaussian and Non-Linear Reservoir Models
DownloadSpring 2015
Reservoir simulation models play an important role in the production forecasting and field development planning. To enhance their predictive capabilities and capture the uncertainties in model parameters, stochastic reservoir models should be calibrated to both geologic and flow observations. The...

Role of adventitious roots in water relations of tamarack (Larix laricina) seedlings exposed to flooding
Download2012
Calvo-Polanco, M., Senorans, J., Zwiazek, J.J.
Background: Flooding reduces supply of oxygen to the roots affecting plant water uptake. Some flooding-tolerant tree species including tamarack (Larix laricina (Du Roi) K. Koch) produce adventitious roots in response to flooding. These roots were reported to have higher hydraulic conductivity...

Simulations of fully coupled lake‐groundwater exchange in a subhumid climate with an integrated hydrologic model
Download2007
Devito, K.J., Smerdon, B.D., Mendoza, C.A.
[1] A fully coupled, integrated surface water/groundwater model was used to study hydrologic controls on lake-groundwater interaction in the subhumid, Boreal Plains of northern Alberta, Canada. Findings from a previous water budget study indicate that lakes on the outwash landscape capture...

Starch nanoparticles (SNP) were isolated by acid hydrolysis from starches varying in amylose content and crystalline type, and physicochemically characterized in terms of their morphology, particle size, crystallinity, molecular size distribution, chain length distribution, amylase resistance and...

Frycz, P., Samson, J. C., Rankin, Robert, Harrold, B. G.
Magnetohydrodynamic, field line resonances in the Earth's magnetosphere can have very large velocity shears and field-aligned currents. Auroral radar measurements of high-latitude resonances indicate that the velocities associated with the resonances in the E and F regions am often substantially...

Mitsuhashi, T., Andersson, L. , Carrion, D., Haley, C., Archibald, A., Evans, G., Plastow, G., Day, A.
We describe the characterisation of the two main coat colour determining loci (MC1R and KIT) for pigs and demonstrate how this information can be utilized for breed identification. These approaches can be useful components of quality assurance and traceability schemes which are increasingly...

TiO2 Nanotube Arrays with Engineered Geometries: Growth, Characterization and Study of Selected Interfaces
DownloadSpring 2016
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is a wide band gap, robust, n-type semiconductor whose transformation into vertically-oriented nanotube arrays makes them suitable electron percolation pathways for vectorial charge transfer togerther with high surface area. Growth of self-organized TiO2 nanotube arrays as...
