Needle Shape Visualization, Tracking and Steering Control for Permanent Prostate Brachytherapy Applications
DownloadFall 2016
Prostate cancer is one of the most prevalent types of cancers in North American males, afflicting one in eight men over the course of their lifetime. Fortunately, early-stage prostate cancer has a wide variety of treatment options. One such option, permanent prostate brachytherapy, has been...

Non-linear reparameterization of complex models with applications to a microalgal heterotrophic fed-batch bioreactor
DownloadSpring 2010
Good process control is often critical for the economic viability of large-scale production of several commercial products. In this work, the production of biodiesel from microalgae is investigated. Successful implementation of a model-based control strategy requires the identification of a model...

Nonlinear state-space control design for displacement-based real-time testing of structural systems
DownloadSpring 2011
Moosavi Nanehkaran, Seyed Abdol Hadi
This study presents the nonlinear design of a state space controller to control hydraulic actuators under displacement control, specifically for real-time pseudo-dynamic testing applications. The proposed control design process uses the nonlinear state space model of the dynamics of the system to...

Origins and geochemical characterization of the Iron-Oxide-Copper-Gold deposits in the Great Bear Magmatic Zone, NWT, Canada
DownloadFall 2014
The Great Bear magmatic zone (GBMZ) in the Northwest Territories, Canada, contains the NICO (Au-Co-Bi±Cu-W) and Sue Dianne (Cu-Ag-Au-±U-Co) deposits, and the DAMP and FAB prospects, all of which represent iron-oxide dominated polymetallic systems with comparable alteration and mineralization...

Parental use of psychological and behavioural control and the relationship to children's eating habits
DownloadFall 2010
This correlational study examined parent-feeding practices, children’s negative affect towards food, and parental psychological and behavioural control, and parenting styles relating to parental behavioural and psychological control. Parents and their children aged 9-13 years completed...

Petrogenesis of the Moose Lake Area of the Acasta Gneiss Complex, Slave Craton, Northwest Territories, Canada
DownloadSpring 2021
The Acasta Gneiss Complex (AGC) is a late Hadean to early Archean terrane in northwestern Canada known to contain the oldest evolved rocks on Earth. However, only a small portion of the AGC has been studied in detail. This study aims to explore one of the poorly explored portions of the AGC, the...

Quantitative analysis of single particle tracking experiments: applying ecological methods in cellular biology
DownloadFall 2010
Single-particle tracking (SPT) is a method used to study the diffusion of various molecules within the cell. SPT involves tagging proteins with optical labels and observing their individual two-dimensional trajectories with a microscope. The analysis of this data provides important information...

Refocusing the focus on adherence to antiretroviral therapy using a community-based participatory research approach
DownloadFall 2014
Adherence to antiretroviral therapy is critical to treatment success. Using an epidemiological and community-based participatory research approach, my thesis reports on two papers related to antiretroviral therapy success (and subsequent failure). My thesis also includes a third paper which...
