Northwestern Ontario gold mining, 1880-1902 : the gold boom that didn't pan out
(1996)In 1878, gold was discovered south of Rat Portage on an island in the Lake of the Woods. After a brief flurry of development, excitement waned and Rainy River District mining progressed slowly and fitfully for more than ... -
Northwestern Ontario Indian childrens' [sic] scores on the WISC in relation to the normative population.
(1973)Because Indian children of Northwestern Ontario attend schools designed for children of white, North-American families, they are frequently given the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children. This research was undertaken ... -
A novel approach to reaction modeling for photocatalytic oxidation processes
(2014)Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are one of the major concerns for indoor air quality. A new method for treating VOCs in the air is through an advance oxidation process (AOP) known as photocatalytic oxidation (PCO). ... -
A Novel DTFC Based Efficiency and Dynamic Performance Improvement of IPMSM Drive
(2016)With the advancements in magnetic materials and semiconductor technology, permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) is becoming more and more popular in high power industrial applications due to its high energy density, ... -

Novel Hilbert Huang transform techniques for bearing fault detection
(2014-01-22)Bearings are commonly used in rotary machinery; while up to half of machinery malfunctions could be related to bearing defects. A reliable bearing fault detection technique becomes vital to a wide array of industries to ... -
A novel metadata analysis approaches for analyzing and understanding wood-decaying mechanisms exhibited by fungi
(2019)Fuel has become an essential commodity in our day to day life. Increase in global population and decreasing fuel reserves have forced mankind to look for other fuel alternatives. Forest biomass serves as a potential renewable ... -
Novel toll-like receptor 4 ligands: synthesis, biological studies and applications in molecular vaccines
(2015-06-15)Lipid A, a unique disaccharide glycolipid, is the active principle of Gram-negative bacterial lipopolysaccharide in activating the innate immune response via Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). Given the important role that ... -
NOx reduction of biodiesel operated diesel engine using different techniques: (EGR, steam injection and emulsification)
(2018)The increase in world population has led to the growth in energy demand. The primary sources of this energy come from the combustion of conventional fuels, which are contributing to polluting the environment. Biodiesel ... -
Numerical analysis of discontinuous structures: static and dynamic
(2018)Discontinuous beam structures can be found in various applications such as adhesive bonded joints and piezoelectric energy harvesters. In adhesive bonded joint design, the single lap joint is commonly used and is constructed ... -
