Spring 2016
A technique to visualize miscible displacement in porous media using laser and the analysis of the results for different processes are presented in this thesis. After saturating the model made of different sized glass beads with oil, solvent was introduced either under dynamic (injection and...

A multiple case history and systematic review of adoption, diffusion, implementation and impact of provincial daily physical activity policies in Canadian schools
Download2015-01-01
Olstad, D. L., Campbell, E. J., Raine, K. D., Nykiforuk, Candace I.J.
Background: Few children meet physical activity (PA) recommendations, and are therefore at increased risk for overweight/obesity and adverse health outcomes. To increase children’s opportunities for PA, several Canadian provinces have adopted school-based daily PA (DPA) policies. It is not clear...

Academic Skills of Children Adopted from China: School-age Follow-up
2011-01-13
Pollock, Karen, Gerke, Jenessa, Fleming, Jennifer
This study investigated the academic skills of 68 school-age children adopted from China as infants/toddlers.

1999
We observed a case of adoption of a single four-month-old polar bear cub (Ursus maritimus) into an existing litter of two cubs on Hopen Island, Svalbard. We believe the high density of maternity dens in the study area may increase the likelihood of natural adoption. Speculation about theoretical...

Adoption of the Alberta Nutrition Guidelines for Children and Youth: Assessing Organizational Behaviour Change in Childcare Organizations
DownloadSpring 2012
In 2008, the Alberta Government released the Alberta Nutrition Guidelines for Children and Youth as a resource for childcare facilities to translate nutrition recommendations into practical food choices. Using a multiple case study method, early adoption of the guidelines was examined in two...

Fall 2013
In the development of a numerical model for the water cycle on Mars, adsorption of water vapour in the Martian regolith acts as a significant sink and retards the transport of mass. Adsorption on Mars cannot be studied directly, so a numerical model was created, and a diffusion sorption...

Analysis of genotype-environment interactions from a genome-wide survey of quantitative trait loci in a barley population
Download2010-01-01
Ham, Bangjoo, Spaner, Dean, Rahman, M. H., Yeh, F. C., Yang, Rong-Cai
The presence of genotype-environment interactions (GE) leads to the imperfect genetic correlation between the measurements of the same trait in different environments, thereby limiting the ability of plant breeders to identify superior breeding lines or best cultivars across the environments. We...

Analysis of linear and nonlinear genotype × environment interaction
2014
The usual analysis of genotype × environment interaction (G × E) is based on the linear regression of genotypic performance on environmental changes (e.g., classic stability analysis). This linear model may often lead to lumping together of the non-linear responses to the whole range of...

Applications of nonautonomous infinite-dimensional systems control theory for parabolic PDEs
DownloadFall 2013
Parabolic partial differential equations (PDEs) are used as models of transport-reaction phenomena in a variety of different industrial chemical and materials engineering processes, and can yield precise descriptions of process variables with complex temporal and spatially dependent system...
