Determining the accuracy of terrestrial LiDAR on red pine
(2019)This paper reviews the capabilities of the FARO Terrestrial LiDAR technology to produce accurate forest measurements. The study was conducted on single Red Pine trees in Northern Ontario. Field measurements were compared ... -
Determining the predictability of acute mountain sickness using a regression analysis
(2010)AMS (Acute Mountain Sickness) is an altitude-related illness that occurs as a direct result of hypoxia. To date there is no consistent diagnostic measurement tool, leaving AMS as a subjectively-measured illness. An exploratory ... -
Determining the strongest predictor of FAST aerobic fitness
(2009)Ice hockey is a unique sport requiring a combination of well developed fitness capacities that can be generally referred to as 'ice hockey fitness'. To be successful at a representative level an ice hockey player must have ... -
Developing a collaborative MOOC learning environment utilizing video sharing with discussion summarization as added-value
(2015-06-16)With the fast-growing Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC) community and the increase in the number of Learning Management Systems (LMSs) available online, the amount of shared information is massive. Current LMS - in ... -
Developing a generic academia mobile sport messaging system using the notion of design patterns
(2005)Designing reusable applications is vital area of research. Design patterns are an innovative notion that promotes reusability. This thesis attempts to develop generic and reusable Short Messaging Systems that can be used ... -
Developing a Multiplex PCR Platform to Determine the Virulence Genes of Escherichia Coli in Boulevard Lake, Thunder Bay, Ontario
Given the evidence that E. coli can establish in the periphytic community and be released back into the water column, it is important to understand the pathogenicity of this group of E. coli by examining the virulence genes ... -
Developing an ecological consciousness as an international student at Lakehead University: a practical guide
(2019)The portfolio will focus on the increasing ecological consciousness of teachers and student populations in India and Canada. It will largely focus on my personal journey from India to Canada in terms of my ecological ... -
Developing an experimental setup for Thunder Bay waste pollution control plant (WPCP) to evaluate UV lamp performance
(2019)An automated experimental setup was developed to measure the spectral irradiance of new low pressure (LP) ultraviolet lamp (UV). The experimental analysis was performed by the measurement of the UV intensity along the ... -
Developing and Assessing a Graduate Student Reference Service
(Emerald, 2019)Purpose The purpose of this paper is to formally assess the training program received by information studies graduate students and the reference services they provided at a research-intensive university. Design/metho ... -
Developing and testing the applicability of a decision support system for the planning of juvenile jack pine thinning
(1994)An investigation was made into the applicability of a model used to assist in planning the allocation of pre-commercial thinning to juvenile jack pine stands. The hypothesis of this study was that planning pre-commercial ... -
Developing machine learning coding similarity indicators for C & C++ corpora
(2020)The digital data in this modern world is vulnerable to copying, altering and claiming someone else’s work as their own. Performing the same activity in programming assignments can be referred to as source-code theft or ... -
Developing understanding: pre-service elementary teachers' changing conceptions of mathematics
(2014-01-22)This descriptive case study explores how a conceptual understanding of fractions develops in pre-service elementary teachers enrolled in a reform-based, remedial mathematics skills course set at a middle school level, ... -
Development and analysis of a self-tuned neuro-fuzzy controller for induction motor drives
(2005)Induction motors (IM) have been widely utilized in industry for variable speed drives due to some of their advantages, such as rugged construction, low cost and reliable service with easy maintenance, as compared to ... -
Development and evaluation of inductive and deductive models of elk (Cervus elaphus) summer resource suitability in Northwestern Ontario
(2006)Resource-selection modelling techniques take either a deductive or inductive approach. Deductive methods take a “bottom-up” approach, where individual wildlife-resource relationships are the building blocks that define ... -
Development and implementation of high performance and high efficiency interior permanent magnet synchronous motor drive
(2014-01-22)As the motor consumes more than 50% of total electrical energy produced in the world, the efficiency optimization of the motor is a burning issue in terms of saving energy and the environment. In modern days researchers ... -
