Unspoken commandments: Contemporary correctional officer work cultures and their influence on prison conditions
DownloadFall 2023
I draw on interviews with 131 Canadian correctional officers (or COs), all of whom work in four western Canadian prisons. Building on existing Canadian and international CO research, my dissertation analyzes specific facets of CO workplace cultures in provincial prisons in Western Canada....

Unsteady characteristics of three-dimensional turbulent flow with separation in an asymmetric diffuser
DownloadFall 2017
A great number of studies have been undertaken to understand separated turbulent boundary layers (TBLs) due to its importance in the performance, design and control of many engineering systems (Hal 2000). Flow separation has a complicated three-dimensional nature in many flow configurations...

River ice processes are among the most important subjects of study for hydrotechnical engineers in cold regions. This is because extremes of both minimum flow (impacting fish habitat and the concentration and transport of pollutants) and maximum water levels (impacting channel geomorphology and...

Fall 2020
The subject of interest for this thesis is the detachment of a turbulent boundary layer. Engineers are interested in techniques that delay or suppress flow separation entirely because the performance of many fluidic devices, such as airfoil and diffuser, are hindered by this flow phenomenon. The...

Deep neural network (DNN) has been developed rapidly in years. While it shows promising results in various tasks of computer vision, DNN typically suffers from accuracy loss due to the domain shift from a source domain to a target domain. To mitigate the accuracy loss without the label from...
