Hewitt, J.A., Wilson, D.M., Chamberland, C.
Injuries are a leading cause of childhood death and disability. Many injuries are a result of youths taking risks and not avoiding risky situations. An educational program to reduce adolescent injury risk (Prevent Alcohol and Risk-Related Trauma in Youth) has operated out of the Misericordia...

Scott, S. D., Moher, D., Klassen, T. P., Hartling, L., Hamm, M. P.
Introduction A research-practice gap exists between what is known about conducting methodologically rigorous randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and what is done. Evidence consistently shows that pediatric RCTs are susceptible to high risk of bias; therefore novel methods of influencing the...

Effect of a variable eddy transfer coefficient in an eddy-permitting model of the subpolar North Atlantic Ocean
Download2005
The effect of using a variable eddy transfer coefficient for the Gent–McWilliams (GM) parameterization in a (1/3)°-resolution ocean model of the subpolar North Atlantic Ocean is investigated. Results from four experiments with different implementations of this coefficient are compared among...

Effect of age of the intermediate host Tribolium confusum (Coleoptera) on infection by Hymenolepis diminuta (Cestoda).
Download2008
A cross-sectional study of 27 cohorts of Tribolium confusum aged 2–78 wk was done to examine effects of host age on exposure to eggs of Hymenolepis diminuta under standardized conditions. Pre-exposure, fasting, and postexposure mortality were low, sex ratio was equal, and fecundity of hosts was...

Abstract: In very loose sand, the ratio M-p of shear stress to mean normal stress at the peak point of the undrained effective stress path (UESP) is very close to the stress ratio M at the peak point of the capped yield surface. Stress ratios M-p can therefore be used in constructing yield...

Effect of cold wire addition in tandem submerged arc welding on weld geometry and micro-hardness of heavy gauge X70 steel
Download2022-01-01
Ren, T., Mohammadijoo, M., Wiskel, J.B., Lazor, R., Willett, E., Ivey, D.G., Henein, H.
The pipeline industry has undertaken an essential upgrade of well established X70 pipeline steel in heavy gauge pipes to fill the demand of increased operating pressures. A developed welding process, cold wire tandem submerged arc welding (CWTSAW), with improved deposition rate and travel speed...

Effect of feed-time duration on discrimination of vocalizations in a go/no-go operant paradigm
Download2022-01-01
Refining and modifying experimental procedures play a vital role in improving methodology while also reducing animal distress. In this study, we asked if an increase in feed time duration affects discrimination in an operant go/no-go task. Specifically, we used zebra finches’ sexually dimorphic...

Effect of heterogeneity of brittle rock on micromechanical extensile behavior during compression loading
Download2010
Lan, H., Hu, B., Martin, C. D.
A grain-based Universal Distinct Element Code model was developed to generate a deformable polygonal grain-like structure to simulate the microstructure of brittle rock. It takes into account grain-scale heterogeneity including microgeometric heterogeneity, grain-scale elastic heterogeneity, and...
