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...

The objective of this thesis was to biomechanically examine the potential usage and limitations of a suspended aid for practicing circles on a pommel horse. The first study examined the influence of a suspended aid on the pommel reaction forces. Twenty gymnasts performed three sets of 10 circles...

Shoute, Lian C. T., Loppnow, Glen R.
Understanding the dsDNA·EG binding interaction is important because the EvaGreen (EG) dye is increasingly used in real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction, high resolution melting analysis, and routine quantification of DNA. In this work, a binding isotherm for the interactions of EG with...

Abstract: Polished (001) cleavage faces of Nain Labradorite (An almost-equal-to 56) were leached at 20-degrees-C (+/- 2-degrees) for 72 days in distilled water (pH almost-equal-to 5.6), in HCl solution (pH almost-equal-to 4.05) and in four other HCl solutions containing 1 mg/l or less of Na, K,...

Quantitative information on the uptake and distribution of Al at the cellular level is required to understand mechanisms of Al toxicity, but direct measurement of uptake across the plasma membrane has remained elusive. We measured rates of Al transport across membranes in single cells of Chara...

In this submission, pH responsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)–based microgels were used to fabricate optical devices (etalons). We demonstrate that the optical properties of the etalons could be manipulated upon the application of an appropriate electric potential between the etalon and a counter...

Research was undertaken into the organic semiconductors tris(8- hydroxyquinoline)aluminum (Alq3) as well as bis(8-hydroxyquinoline)zinc (Znq2) to the effect of improving achievable morphological control using an inexpensive evaporation based solution synthesis method. By varying experimental...

In this thesis, a new technique named vapour-liquid-solid glancing angle deposition (VLS-GLAD) will be used to enhance structural control over branched nanowire (NW) arrays. NWs are 1D crystals that have been extensively applied in sensors, photovoltaic devices, and transistors. The functional...
