Cole-Cole Relation for Long-Chain Branching From General Rigid Bead-Rod Theory
(2020-08)Empirically, we find that parametric plots of the imaginary versus real parts of the complex viscosity may depend neither on temperature, nor on average molecular weight. Moreover, for fixed polydispersity, these Cole-Cole ... -
Material interface control in multi-material topology optimization using pseudo-cost domain method
(Wiley, 2020-09-20)The recent drive for producing lightweight and high performance designs on reduced timelines has promoted the need for computational design generation tools such as Multi-Material Topology Optimization (MMTO). However, ... -
Interpersonal perception and interpersonal spin
(Wiley, 2020-09-25)Introduction Interpersonal spin is an indicator of intraindividual variability in social behavior. Spin is positively related to Neuroticism and is maladaptive, with well-documented deleterious effects on social functioning. ... -
Numerical and Experimental Investigations of Natural Convective Heat Transfer From Two-Sided Diagonally Inclined Square Plates Having a Finite Thickness
(Global Digital Central, 2019-08-13)A premiere free-access and peer-reviewed frontier journal site, serving the needs of the thermal-fluids community. See the latest research or submit an article. Quickly share your research with the global thermal-fluids ... -
An Exploratory Comparative Case Study of Repurposed Elementary Schools in Highly Deprived Communities in Ontario
(2020-05-01)Executive Summary Over the past two decades, public schools in Ontario have been permanently closing at alarming rates. From 2010 to 2016, the total number of school closures was 354 which was related to the 2009 and ... -
Gas diffusion electrode design for electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020-10-05)Anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions contribute to the greenhouse effect and global warming, which can lead to undesirable climate change and extinction of species. Besides the ongoing efforts to develop environmentally ... -
Essays on US Business Dynamics
This dissertation investigates the life cycle dynamics of US firms. In Chapter 2, I summarize a set of recent trends which I refer to as the ``Decline in US Business Dynamism". I then build and calibrate a model of firm ... -
Challenges of Black and Other Minority Students Around Equity and Inclusion in a Postsecondary Institution in Ontario, Canada
In Canada statistics show that visible minorities represent 23.3% of the total Canadian population. The vast majority (94.8%) of the foreign-born population lives in Ontario (53.3%), British Columbia, Quebec, and Alberta. ... -
Rethinking Extraction: A Lefebvrian Critique of Sustainable Mining Discourse
The idea of Sustainable Mining (SM) has gained increasing traction in the past two decades as an industry-based response to concerns over operational pollution, the (mis)treatment of local/Indigenous communities, and a ... -
Multitaper Statistical Tests for the Detection of Frequency-Modulated Signals
Detection of periodic signals in noise is an important problem in many scientific fields and there exist tools in the multitaper spectrum estimation and harmonic analysis framework for doing so, for example, the Harmonic ... -
A Story of Storytelling: Listening to Narratives of Belonging within the Indigenous Art Centre
The Indigenous Art Centre (IAC) is an Indigenous-led federal program that supports “the creation, preservation and promotion of contemporary art produced by Indigenous peoples in Canada.” Presently, the Indigenous Art ... -
Examinations of the Labour Market Outcomes and Housing of Ontario Social Assistance Recipients
This thesis showcases a series of research examining various aspects of social assistance programs and their recipients using a set of administrative microdata following beneficiaries of the social assistance programs in ... -
Mean Squared Error For Optimal Designs in the Polynomial and Spline Regression
This thesis aims to further expand the existing optimal design theory for polynomial and spline regression models. We will show that the classical minimax design in polynomial regression models leads to the recently ... -
Force-free Plasma Equilibria and Differential Operators Connecting Certain Equations
Differential operators connecting a linear case of the Grad--Shafranov equation and the axisymmetric Klein--Gordon equation are found. Differential operators linking another linear case of the Grad--Shafranov equation and ... -
Prison and its Afterlives: Haunting and the Emotional Geographies of Formerly Incarcerated People’s Reintegration Experiences in Kingston, Ontario, Canada
Kingston is undeniably a prison town. As the venue for Canada’s first prison and current home to nearly twenty percent of the nation’s federally incarcerated people in seven penitentiaries around the city, prisons undoubtedly ... -
Development and Influence of Erosion Voids at Rigid Pipe Joints
An experiment was designed and conducted to study the effect that erosion voids forming at leaky reinforced concrete pipe joints have on the pipe response to surface loading. The experiment consisted of a jointed system ... -
Perspectives of Fast Magic‐Angle Spinning ⁸⁷Rb NMR of Organic Solids at High Magnetic Fields
(Wiley, 2020-09-06)We report solid‐state ⁸⁷Rb NMR spectra from two Rb‐ionophore complexes obtained with fast magic‐angle spinning (MAS) (up to 60 kHz) at 21.1 T. These Rb‐ionophore complexes containing macrocycles such as benzo‐15‐crown‐5 ... -
Investigating Whether Epigenetic Changes Occur Following Gestational Exposure to Triphenyl Phosphate in C57Bl/6 Mice
Triphenyl phosphate (TPP) is a chemical flame retardant and plasticizer which is added to both consumer and industrial products. While overt toxicity to TPP is relatively low, recent studies have begun to investigate the ... -
Distributed Sensing for Monitoring Cast Iron Pipe Behaviour
The objectives of this thesis were to investigate the material performance and field behaviour of small diameter cast iron water pipes. Exhumed pipes were provided by the Cities of Kingston, Hamilton, and Toronto in Canada. ... -
The Effect of Soil Gradation and Addition of Natural Fibres on the Mechanical Properties and Freeze-Thaw Durability of On-Site Manufactured Compressed Earth Blocks
Implementation of sustainable materials is becoming an imperative consideration in modern building because of the impact of the construction industry on climate change patterns. Building with earth is an ancient technique ...
