This thesis is based on three papers on selected topics in Asymptotic Geometric Analysis. The first paper is about the volume of high-dimensional random polytopes; in particular, on polytopes generated by Gaussian random vectors. We consider the question of how many random vertices (or ...

Extreme events can have serious consequences, ranging from economic losses to loss of life. Past natural disaster events have shown that highway networks are critical to transporting people from danger, but are also not immune to direct disruption and damage by these events. This is certainly...

Using water quality models to predict disinfectant concentrations in water distribution systems requires a knowledge of the wall decay coefficient. In this study, field water sampling was conducted in conjunction with a SynerGEE Water hydraulic model for an area of the water distribution system...

Hydraulic fracturing treatment has been increasingly applied to stimulate shale gas reservoirs. During hydraulic fracturing, a large amount of fracturing water is injected into the target formation. However, only a small fraction of injected fluid, typically 10 to 20 %, can be recovered during...

We Used to Drink Our Water: Understanding the causes and consequences of boil water advisories in rural drinking water wells
DownloadFall 2014
Access to safe, reliable drinking water in many First Nations in Canada lags significantly behind the access available in non-First Nations communities. This thesis explores the sources, pathways, and consequences of bacteriological contamination in drinking water wells in Samson Cree Nation. A...

In this thesis, we first introduce two basic problems of filter, the nonlinear filtering and model selection problem. We show that both of them can be solved by the unnormalized filter approach. Then several web based particle filter algorithms will be discussed. We extend the resampled and...

One of the main aims in this thesis is to establish analogues of the classical Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev (HLS) inequality for weighted orthogonal polynomial expansions (WOPEs) on the unit sphere, the unit ball and the simplex. An optimal condition for which this inequality holds is obtained....
