SSHRC CG awarded 2024: Prevailing extractive logics allow some people to dehumanize and exploit whole classes and nations in order to take control of their lands and extract value from it, polluting and destroying in the process. These logics need to be remade in order to address climate change....

Automatically Detecting Affect in Computer-based Learning Environments: A Systematic Literature Review
DownloadSpring 2023
Affect detection is increasingly viewed as an essential component of computer-based learning systems because it aims to improve learner outcomes by adapting to the learner’s affect. However, most computer-based learning environments used across formal and informal educational contexts do not...

Interfacing Silicon-Based Quantum Dots with Proteins for Biological and Sensing Applications
DownloadFall 2020
This dissertation presents the preparation of functional bioinorganic hybrids from silicon-based quantum dots (SiQDs) and enzymes and the use of SiQDs and green fluorescent protein as ratiometric photoluminescent sensors for nerve agents. Chapter 2 discusses the preparation of water-soluble...

Collisions of motorized transport with wildlife impact a wide range of species and can cause injuries and economic losses to people. On roads, vehicle collisions with animals have been studied extensively, resulting in mitigation measures that reduce collisions by segregating animals and...

On a perfect hydrogen-terminated Si(100)-2x1 surface, each surface silicon atom is capped with exactly one atom of hydrogen. When one of the capping hydrogen atoms is removed, the now unsatisfied orbital of the underlying silicon atom is exposed at that site. This site is better known as a...

Clinical Utility of Proposed Gait Stability Measures: Selection, Application and Evaluation of the Extrapolated Centre of Mass
DownloadSpring 2019
Gait stability is the ability to maintain a state of equilibrium during locomotion. In humans, this includes the need to maintain a stable walking pattern while regularly positioning the body in a state of imbalance. Thus, it is not surprising that gait is accompanied by an increased risk of...

Towards Clinical Testing of Intraspinal Microstimulation for Restoration of Walking after Spinal Cord Injury
DownloadSpring 2019
The overall goal of this thesis was to advance intraspinal microstimulation (ISMS) towards clinical testing for the purpose of restoring walking after spinal cord injury. ISMS implants focus on restoring mobility after spinal cord injury by activating the intact spinal motor networks below the...

Walking is a locomotor task that integrates information from all over the nervous system. The lumbosacral spinal cord houses neural networks that contribute to locomotion. These networks dominate locomotor activity during development and may provide suitable targets for restoring function after...

We present a platform for research into nanomaterial-enhanced gas sensing using magnetomotive MEMS resonators. A microfabrication process fl ow is developed and carried out to create metallized silicon MEMS resonators. In tandem, a test system based around a balanced electronic bridge is...

The basic human right to have safe and clean drinking water cannot be neglected with the ever-rising worldwide need for drinking water that meets global standards. Local monitoring of water sources is even more vital in areas where access to pure drinking water is limited and its processing...
