An Evaluation of Spatial Lyme Disease Risk at Regional and Health Unit Scales Using Remotely Sensed Surface Temperature, GIS-Based Habitat Suitability Data and Population Modelling
The spread of Lyme disease continues to be a severe public health concern in Ontario, Canada due to rising temperatures. Several previous studies have modelled the extent and rate of risk increase at provincial and national ... -
A Meta-analytic Review of Cognitive Processing Therapy for Adults with Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
(2019)Numerous studies have demonstrated the efficacy of cognitive processing therapy (CPT) for treating posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Two prior meta-analyses of studies are available but used approaches that limit ... -
"Ma vie est vraiment différente de ce que je pensais": A life-story analysis of geographies and gendered subjectivities of Francophone mothers in Kingston
This dissertation is about migrant Francophone mothers’ experiences of mothering in Kingston, Ontario. It exposes how elements of these women’s life-stories, namely mothering, migration, and minority language, intersect ... -
Application of Optical CT to Estimate the Mass of Macroalgae in a Tank of Water
This thesis develops and tests a mass estimation system for macroalgae using optical computed tomography. The system consists of a table with a fixed camera and backlighting, which rotates around a container of macroalgae ... -
Evolutionary Constraints: Phenology and elevational range limits in an annual plant
All species have limits to their geographic distributions and many range limits are stable over centuries, indicating a failure to adapt to conditions beyond the range edge. This simple observation contradicts copious ... -
Molecular Continua for Polymeric Liquids in Large-Amplitude Oscillatory Shear Flow
(2017-05)In this paper, we connect a molecular description of the rheology of a polymeric liquid to a continuum description, and then test this connection for large-amplitude oscillatory shear flow (LAOS). Specifically, for the ... -
Simple Accurate Expressions for Shear Stress in Large-Amplitude Oscillatory Shear Flow
(2017-05)Analytical solutions for shear stress in large-amplitude oscillatory shear flow (LAOS), for continuum or molecular models, often take the form of the first few terms of a power series in the shear rate amplitude. For ... -
Padé Approximant for Normal Stress Differences in Large-Amplitude Oscillatory Shear Flow
(2017-11)Analytical solutions for the normal stress differences in large-amplitude oscillatory shear flow (LAOS), for continuum or molecular models, normally take the form of the first few terms of a series expansion in the shear ... -
Nonlinear Core Deflection in Injection Molding
(2018-02)Injection molding of thin slender parts is often complicated by core deflection. This deflection is caused by molten plastics race tracking through the slit between the core and the rigid cavity wall. The pressure of this ... -
Ethermodynamic Instability of Polymeric Liquids in Large-Amplitude Oscillatory Shear Flow from Corotational Maxwell Fluid
(2018-04)When polymeric liquids are subjected to oscillatory shear flow, if the amplitude of the shear rate is high enough, the shear stress response will become aperiodic. This has been variously attributed to fracture, common ... -
Power Series for Shear Stress of Polymeric Liquid in Large-Amplitude Oscillatory Shear Flow
(2018-04)xact solutions for shear stress in a polymeric liquid subjected to large-amplitude oscillatory shear flow (LAOS) contain many Bessel functions. For the simplest of these, for instance, the corotational Maxwell fluid, in ... -
Macromolecular Tumbling and Wobbling in Large-Amplitude Oscillatory Shear Flow
(2018-11)For a suspension of rigid dumbbells, in any simple shear flow, we recently solved for the diffusion equation for the orientation distribution function by a power series expansion in the shear rate magnitude. In this paper, ... -
Order in Oscillatory Shear Flow
(2018-12)We examine the second order orientation tensor for the simplest molecular model relevant to a polymeric liquid in large-amplitude oscillatory shear flow (LAOS), the rigid dumbbell suspension. For this we use an approximate ... -
Exact Analytical Interconversion between Durometer Hardness Scales
(2017-02)Previous work has related Young’s modulus to durometer hardness for any standardized scale. In this paper, we build on this work to solve explicitly and exactly for the hardness in any one standardized durometer hardness ... -
Evaluating the Surficial Geochemical Expressions in Soil, and Tree Cores Surrounding an LCT Pegmatite at Pakeagama Lake, Ontario
The Pakeagama Lake Pegmatite is a complex type, petalite subtype Li-Cs-Ta (LCT) pegmatite, located in Northwestern Ontario, Canada, at the border of the Berens River and Sachigo subprovinces of the Archean Superior ... -
High-performance Communication in MPI through Message Matching and Neighborhood Collective Design
Message Passing Interface (MPI) is the de facto standard for communication in High Performance Computing (HPC). MPI Processes compute on their local data while extensively communicating with each other. Communication is ... -
When and Where We Enter: Situating the Absented Presence of Black Canadian Art
My thesis situates recent black visual arts practices in the context of exhibition practices and art history. I undertake a content analysis of 10 years of black visual arts reviews in FUSE Magazine and perform a close ... -
The effect of initial arteriolar transmural pressure on vasodilation at the onset of muscle contraction
Muscle contraction initiates a rapid vasodilation (widening) of small blood vessels in the skeletal muscle called arterioles, increasing muscle blood flow, which is greater when the contracting muscle is below, compared ... -
Taste and Ambition: Dutch Artists and Their Collections of Works on Paper
This dissertation is a study of Dutch artists as collectors of prints and drawings in the seventeenth century. The presence of works on paper in artists’ workshops and their use as visual reference tools and objects for ...
