Fall 2016
My thesis is concerned with how law enforcement officers make sense of and use the new visibility created by body worn video (BWV) and in-vehicle video (IVV) in the context of their work. The data comes from a case study of a small policing organization in the Canadian prairies. Data was...

Concrete deep beams with small shear span-to-depth (a/d) ratios are common elements in structures. However, there are few experimental results on the behaviour of FRP reinforced concrete deep beams and no specific modelling techniques exist in design codes for such members. The objectives of this...

Good Participation in Web-based Public Participation Geographic Information System (WPPGIS)
DownloadFall 2018
Development of Public Participation Geographic Information System (PPGIS) was an attempt to bring technology to communities for their decision-making. To overcome the limitations of the traditional public participation and with the huge progress in the web-based technologies, community planners...

Relationships among diverse root foraging behaviours: understanding plant behavioural types
DownloadSpring 2014
Behaviours capture the functional response of plants to environmental factors. I explore behaviours for twenty co-occurring grassland species in response to common belowground environmental factors (competition, mycorrhizae, heterogeneous and high nutrients) and their relationship to plant...

Nigeria has a huge natural gas reserve, but to date this resource has been largely under-developed. This state of affair has impacted negatively on Nigeria’s economic potential. In contrast, Alberta has benefitted immensely from its natural gas resource because it has effectively developed same....

Tiered Behaviour Architecture for Virtual Characters using Cyclic Scheduling and Behaviour Capture
DownloadSpring 2015
A story-based video game contains many characters. A few are controlled by the player and the majority are virtual characters, controlled by artificial intelligence. In recent years, video game artificial intelligence has developed slower than other aspects of video games, such as graphics,...

The Impact of Police Duty Ensemble on the Cardiopulmonary Response to Exercise and Simulated Work Performance
DownloadSpring 2019
This study, conducted in two-parts, examined the impact of general duty police ensemble on the cardiopulmonary response to graded exercise and on simulated work performance in 25 healthy male and female subjects. Part I consisted of randomly ordered treadmill tests in two experimental conditions:...

Personality has been documented in diverse taxa and growing attention is being directed towards the ecological implications of consistent variation in individual behaviour. These implications include the rise in habituation behaviour by wildlife living in human-disturbed areas, which has resulted...

Broiler breeders require feed restriction to maintain high production rates of hatching eggs. However, feed restriction, conventionally managed during the rearing period through skip-a-day feeding, creates welfare concerns as broiler breeders exhibit behaviours indicative of hunger and...

The traditional approach to the study of consumer behaviour is to regard them as isolated islands of preferences, needs, motives, and goals; however, this approach neglects the impact of ‘others’ on consumers’ judgments and preferences. For this reason, the theme of this thesis is the ‘connected...
