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 ... -
Development and implementation of various speed controllers for wide speed range operation of IPMSM drive / by Md Muminul Islam Chy.
(2007)Despite many advantageous features of interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM), the precise speed control of an IPMSM drive becomes a complex issue due to nonlinear coupling among its winding currents and the ... -
Development and validation of the successful aging quiz / by Christine A. Knight. --
(2004)The purpose of this dissertation was to evaluate the reliability, validity, and responsiveness of the Successful Aging Quiz (SAQ), a 70-item, self-administered, multidimensional assessment instrument designed to measure ... -
Development of a consistent cubic equation of state for the calculation of the phase behaviour and thermodynamic properties of pure components
(2023)This study analyzes two cubic equations of state (CEoS), the Redlich-Kwong (RK) and PengRobinson (PR) CEoS, to calculate the properties of 151 pure components. The components were grouped by their intermolecular interactions ... -
Development of a language model and opinion extraction for text analysis of online platforms
(2021)Language models are one of the fundamental components in a wide variety of natural language processing tasks. The proliferation of text data over the last two decades and the developments in the field of deep learning ... -
Development of a methodology for monitoring changes in Ghanaian forest reserves
(2000)The Ghanaian Forests are a significant component of the country’s development. Occasioned by the rapid population growth of the country, increasing phenomena such as shifting agriculture, logging, fuelwood harvesting and ... -
Development of a protocol to profile the gonadal steroid intermediates of vitellogenic ovaries from fathead minnows, pimephales promelas
(1996)This research developed a protocol to extract, isolate, detect, and measure the intermediates involved in ovarian steroid biosynthesis by Pimephales promelas to be used in bleached kraft mill effluent chronic toxicity ... -
Development of a scale to assess individual differences in children's trust-value basis of friendship / Cathy J. Morgan.
(1992)Rotenberg (1986, 1991) has shown that children acquire a "trustvalue" basis of friendship, whereby friendship is a function of how much a child believes a peer will keep secrets, promises and tell the truth. The purpose ... -
