Weeds promote greater arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi benefit in organically managed spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivation system
DownloadFall 2012
Weeds appear to enhance soil microbial benefit in organic agricultuer. We examined effects of weed and microbial effects on spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) yield and quality under organic management systems. Canadian spring wheat cultivars were planted in weed-free and weedy treatments in...

Weighted Dynamic Aggregation Approach for Modular Large-scale Power Systems Modeling and Analysis
DownloadFall 2023
Regardless of the power level, many recent power systems are designed with modular and distributed units forming complex systems. Such large-scale systems normally consist of several units with similar hardware and control configurations, which can be connected to the rest of the system at a...

One of the main aims in this thesis is to establish analogues of the classical Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev (HLS) inequality for weighted orthogonal polynomial expansions (WOPEs) on the unit sphere, the unit ball and the simplex. An optimal condition for which this inequality holds is obtained....
