Experimental Study of Grain Interactions on Rolling Texture Development in Face-Centered Cubic Metals
(2009-09-26)There exists considerable debate in the texture community about whether grain interactions are a necessary factor to explain the development of deformation textures in polycrystalline metals. Computer simulations indicate ... -
An experimental study of liquid-phase separation in the systems Fe2SiO4-Fe3O4-KAlSi2O6-SiO2-H2O, Fe3O4-KAlSi2O6-SiO2-H2O and Fe3O4-Fe2O3-KAlSi2O6-SiO2-H2O with or without P, S, F, Cl or Ca0.5Na0.5Al1.5Si2.5O8: Implications for immiscibility in volatile-rich natural magmas
(2012-04-11)Abstract Isobaric (200 MPa) experiments have been performed to investigate the effects of H2O alone or in combination with P, S, F or Cl on the phase relations and elemental and oxygen isotopic partitioning between ... -
Experimental Validation of an Elastic Registration Algorithm for Ultrasound Images
(2007-10-29)Ultrasound is a favorable tool for intra-operative surgical guidance due to its fast imaging speed and non-invasive nature. However, deformations of the anatomy caused by breathing, heartbeat, and movement of the patient ... -
Experimenting with sex and speciation: Does intersexual co-evolution drive population divergence?
(2008-09-12)It has been almost 150 years since Darwin’s “The Origin of Species” was published, yet the mechanisms that lead to the creation of new species are still a topic of fervent research in Evolutionary Biology. In the last ... -
EXPERIMENTS AND MODELING ON THE STRESS RELAXATION NEAR A NOTCH IN ZR-2.5NB
(2012-09-20)As an important structural component in CANDU reactor, the pressure tube, made of coldworked Zr-2.5Nb, experiences a neutron flux under high pressure and elevated temperature during the reactor operation. Notches, existing ... -
Experiments and Monte Carlo Analysis for the Optical Properties of the Scintillator in SNO+
(2010-09-22)The SNO+ experiment will be the SNO detector filled with a neodymium-loaded liquid scintillator instead of heavy water. SNO+ will be used to detect neutrinos of much lower energy. Also, SNO+ will conduct a search for ... -
'Expert Patient' in Health Professional Education: Experience of OT Students
(2013-04-15)Patient-centred care is the gold standard of health care, yet in practice, problems prevail. The use of the ‘expert patient’ in health professional education is one form of learning patient-centred care. A gap in the ... -
Expertise Development in Volleyball: the Role of Early Sport Activities and Players’ Age and Height
(2016-06-01)The purpose of this study was to analyse the developmental pathway of skilled and less skilled volleyball players by focusing on the quantity and type of sporting activities, as well as their age and height in comparison ... -
Expertise in Scene Gist: The Effects of Long-Term Visual Memory on Early Scene Processing
(2014-09-04)Long-term memory has been widely studied, but it is unclear whether it can influence processing efficiency. In the past, researchers have focused on the effect of familiarity through repeated exposure to examine effects ... -
Expertise in Ultra-Endurance Triathletes Early Sport Involvement, Training Structure, and the Theory of Deliberate Practice
(2016-05-18)The theory of deliberate practice (Ericsson, Krampe, & Tesch-Römer, 1993) is predicated on the concept that the engagement in specific forms of practice is necessary for the attainment of expertise. The purpose of this ... -
Explaining Copyright: The Normative Implications of its Sociotechnical Construction
(2008-10-09)The construction of copyright law can be causally explained by two possible types of explanation: dialectical explanations and material explanations. I argue that an adequate causal description of the copyright discourses ... -
Explanatory Models of Recovery From Stroke Within the African-Caribbean Community in Canada
(2010-04-30)Stroke is the most common serious neurological condition worldwide. Members of the Black population are at an increased risk of suffering a stroke due to several risk factors which are more prevalent in this racial group. ... -
Explicating a Biological Basis for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
(2007-12-18)In the absence of clinical markers for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), research to find a biological basis for it is still open. Many data-mining techniques have been widely employed to analyze biomedical data describing ... -
Explicit Vocabulary Instruction For Kindergarten Students
(2013-03-14)Learning to read begins at home as children hear their families talk and interact with one another (Hart & Risely, 1995). By age three children living in advantaged homes hear three times as many words as children living ... -
