Electromechanical Behaviour of Surface-Bonded Piezoelectric Sensors/Actuators with Imperfect Adhesive Layers
DownloadFall 2009
The performance of smart structures depends on the electromechanical behaviour of piezoelectric sensors/actuators and the bonding condition along the interface, which connects the sensor/actuator and the host structures. This thesis documents a theoretical study of the influence of material...

Enhanced N2 and O2 densities inferred from EISCAT observations of Pc5 waves and associated electron precipitation
Download2016
Yau, Andrew W., Sydorenko, Dmytro, Rankin, Robert
An advanced two-dimensional numerical model of the coupled ionosphere and magnetosphere is used to analyze EISCAT observations of ULF waves that are accompanied by electron precipitation with a wide energy spectrum. The observations show columns of significantly enhanced electron density produced...

Enhancing space modeling and mobile resources planning in construction operations through a simulation driven visualization framework
DownloadFall 2011
Simulation modeling is a strong tool that has not been utilized to its expected potential in day to day construction industry activities. One of the reasons contributing to that is the inability of simulation models to depict changes in site space in an intuitive way. This research tries to...

Environmental particulate matter induces murine intestinal inflammatory responses and alters the gut microbiome
Download2013-01-01
Thiesen, Aducio, Rioux, Kevin P., Tso, Robert, Kish, Lisa, Barkema, Herman W., Madsen, Karen L., Vincent, Renaud, Wine, Eytan, Kaplan, Gilaad G., Hotte, Naomi, Gänzle, Michael G.
Background Particulate matter (PM) is a key pollutant in ambient air that has been associated with negative health conditions in urban environments. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of orally administered PM on the gut microbiome and immune function under normal and inflammatory...

Exhaustion and steady state models for predicting landslide hazards in the Canadian Rocky Mountains
Download1993
The temporal distribution of landslides can be evaluated by steady-state and exhaustion models. The probability of landsliding remains constant through time in the steady-state model but the probability decreases in the exhaustion model as more slopes fail. Rock sliding down bedding surfaces on...

Finite Element Model of the Thermal Profile During Submerged Arc Welding with One and Two Electrodes
DownloadFall 2016
The submerged-arc welding (SAW) process is used extensively in the manufacturing of pipes. The heat flow introduced by the welding operation has a significant impact on the properties of both the weld metal and the heat affected zone (HAZ). The work presented in this thesis aims to develop a...

Fall 2022
River runoff plays a very important role in the Arctic Ocean. The Arctic Ocean accounts for around 1% of the total world ocean volume, but receives around 11% of the worlds river runoff. In addition, the Arctic Ocean is a β ocean, where stratification is primarily determined by salinity as...

Fall 2019
This work focuses on the implementation and validation of the implicit Total Variation Diminishing (TVD) schemes for modelling of two-dimensional multiphase flow. The TVD schemes are designed to mitigate the numerical diffusion at the interface where discontinuities of fluid properties exist...
