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...

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...

Barbedo, Lucas, Belanger, Simon, Lukovich, Jennifer V., Myers, Paul G., Tremblay, Jean-Eric
Pulses of ocean primary productivity during the fall season are frequent in the mid-latitudes when ocean cooling and wind-driven turbulence erode the surface stratification and allow the injection of nutrients into the euphotic zone. This phenomenon is often referred to as a phytoplankton fall...

The variogram characterizes the spatial variability of a regionalized variable. Variogram calculation and modeling require a significant amount of professional time. The variogram has a significant impact on estimation and simulation, and it has a considerable impact in the mining industry since...

Spring 2014
Consider an open control volume consisting of a porous medium submerged in a surrounding ambient fluid of density ρa. The top and bottom of the control volume allow ambient fluid to enter the porous medium. Saline fluid of density ρs>ρa is supplied at a constant rate of Qo near the top of the...
