Modelling the Integration of Standardized Systems for Healthcare Worker Satisfaction and Privacy in an IoT-based Service
DownloadFall 2022
Hand hygiene (HH) is critical to decreasing hospital-acquired infections. For this reason, healthcare organizations monitor their staff’s HH compliance. IoT-based hand hygiene monitoring technologies (HHMTs) are a tool for tracking such compliance. This research investigates the integration of...

Characterization of novel envelope proteins and their relationship with the Cpx response and stress resistance in Escherichia coli
DownloadFall 2022
Stress is a major factor every organism needs to mitigate to survive. Environmental factors such as oxygen content, temperature, and alkalinity can all induce stress and prevent life from progressing. For Escherichia coli and other members of the mammalian gastrointestinal tract they need to...

DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF A HIGH PRESSURE-HIGH TEMPERATURE WELLBORE SIMULATOR FOR INVESTIGATION OF THE IMPACT OF CYCLIC STRESSES ON THE INTEGRITY OF WELLBORE SECTIONS WITH CEMENT/CASING INTERFACES
DownloadSpring 2022
An ideal cement job is expected to provide a perfect zonal isolation during the entire production life and even after the abandonment of the oil and gas wells. Variations of downhole stress conditions due to, for example, pressure cycles during the multistage hydraulic fracturing operations and...

Application of Deuterium Isotope Effects on NMR Parameters as a Method of Intramolecular Hydrogen Bond Characterization in Enolic Forms of 1,3-diketones in the Solid State
DownloadFall 2022
The application of deuterium isotope effects on 13C NMR chemical shifts to study the nature of intramolecular hydrogen bonding in the enolic forms of two 1,3-diketones, tetraacetylethane (TAE) and avobenzone, in the solid state is reported. Carbon-13 NMR spectra of natural abundance TAE and...

Forest Tree Population Response to Climate Variability and Climate Change: Implications for Reforestation
DownloadFall 2022
This dissertation aims to quantify the sensitivity and adaptive capacity of forest tree species to climate change in Canada and North America, with applications of guiding sustainable forest management through case studies focusing on Alberta. The general idea is that management interventions...
