Fuel characteristics of Northwestern Ontario tree species and their components
(2010)The use of forestry residues or any biomass in the production of energy has been a topic of great discussion due to the increasing pressure to establish environmentally friendly energy production. With the current energy ... -
Full-duplex MU-MIMO systems under the effects of non-ideal transceivers: performance analysis and power allocation optimization
(2023)Modern Technologies, particularly connectivity, increasingly support many facets of everyday life. The next generation of wireless communication systems aims to provide new advanced services and support new demands. These ... -
Functional Imaging of the Lungs using Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Inert Fluorinated Gases
(2016)Fluorine-19 (19F) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the lungs using inhaled inert fluorinated gases can potentially provide high quality anatomical and functional images of the lungs. This technique is able to visualize ... -
The functional interpretation of quartz and amethyst artefacts from the Mackenzie I site (DdJf-9)
(2017)Mackenzie I is the largest excavated archaeological site that is attributed to the Lakehead Complex, the first known occupants of the area surrounding modern day Thunder Bay, Ontario. As such, it has garnered much academic ... -
Functional niche differentiation in co-occurring congeneric plants
(2014)Niche differentiation is argued as one of the mechanisms explaining species coexistence. Despite their sessile nature, similar resource needs and traits to acquire and utilize resources closely related plant species coexist. ... -
Functional niche differentiation in co-occurring congeneric plants / by Md Saiful Islam Khan.
(2014)"Niche differentiation is argued as one of the mechanisms explaining species coexistence. Despite their sessile nature, similar resource needs and traits to acquire and utilize resources closely related plant species ... -
Functional significance of waist-to-hip ratio / by Tanya D. Spencer
(2002)Waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) may be important and highly visible “honest advertisement” of general and reproductive health and, hence, physical attractiveness. Research shows that men and women aged 18-86 agree on what constitutes ... -
A functional trait analysis of successional pathway dynamics
(2018)The study of plant community re-assembly following disturbances in anthropogenically managed landscapes is a necessity in today’s climate. The measurement of plant functional traits is a tool that can be of great help in ... -
Fundamental studies of microalgal biofilm formation and microalgalbacterial membrane photobioreactors
(2024)Microalgae is one of the photoautotrophic microorganisms that has attracted significant attention in wastewater treatment and biofuel production. Although researchers claimed that microalgae cultivation in wastewater ... -
Fungi associated with the emerald ash borer on urban green ash
(2018)The emerald ash borer (Agrilus planipennis) is an invasive beetle recently introduced from Asia. It has quickly spread throughout much of eastern North America causing death of millions of ash (Fraxinus spp.) in both natural ... -
Further investigation of cognitive impairment in migraine subjects
(1992)The objective of the present study was to further investigate the hypothesis that repeated migraine attacks may cause permanent and possible cumulative neurological damage involving higher cortical functions (Zeitlin ... -
Fuzzy adaptive control of a two-wheeled inverted pendulum
(2018)Recently, the two-wheeled inverted pendulum has drawn the attention of robotic community in view of a plethora of applications, such as transport vehicles: Segway, teleconferencing robots, and electronic network-vehicle. ... -
Fuzzy logic based efficiency optimization of IPM synchronous motor drive
(2012-11-10)Interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) is highly appreciated by researchers in variable speed drive applications due to some of its advantageous features such as small size, high power density, simple ... -
Fuzzy logic based online adaptation of current and speed controllers for improved performance of IPMSM drive
(2013-02-12)Precise torque and speed control of electric motors is a key issue in industries for variable speed drives (VSD). Over the years the induction motors have been widely utilized in industries for VSD applications. However, ... -
Fuzzy logic control of a two degree of freedom parallel robot
(2010)Parallel robots differ greatly from their serial counterparts in terms of performance and mechanical ability. Serial robots are open chained mechanisms since each link is connected to an adjacent one and each joint is ... -
Gallium nitride on low temperature cofired ceramic templates for Schottky junctions
(2021)In this work aluminum, silicon and zinc oxide were used as intermediate layers for thin film growth on cofired glass ceramic substrates. The motivation behind this work is a direct deposition of nitride thin films on the ... -
