Depositional processes operating on the paleoproterozoic gowganda ice margin
(2014-01-22)Glacial sedimentary rocks of the Huronian Supergroup crop out along the north shore of Lake Huron and were likely deposited on what is thought to have been a divergent continental margin (Fralick and Miall, 1981; 1989). ... -
Depression and anxiety in cancer patients seeking psychosocial therapy
(2002)The prevalence of mental disorders (particularly depression and anxiety) in a sample of Canadian cancer patients who were referred to a psychosocial oncology program was investigated. Thirty-one cancer patients filled ... -
Depression and cognitions of significant life events
(1987)The present study examined a number of relevant underlying cognitions of depression, within the context of learned helplessness theory, and more specifically, reformulated learned helplessness theory. Previous research ... -
Depression, quantity of social interaction, reciprocal self-disclosure, and perspective-taking in the elderly
(1985)The present research was designed to investigate the relationships among; a) depression, b) the quantity of social interaction and, c) the quality of social interaction in the elderly. Twenty-three residents aged 72 ... -
Depressive symptomatology and lifelong music experience: a cross-sectional study
Depression is a serious mental health disorder, with enormous costs to individuals and society. According to the 2012 Canadian Community Health Survey, approximately 1.9 million Canadians have reported a major depressive ... -
Design and control of a 10 DOF biped robot
(2009)Compared to wheeled robots, biped robots have their advantages. Biped robots have better mobility. Biped robots can walk in human environments, such as rough terrain and the place that contains obstacles, and can also climb ... -
Design and control of a 6 DOF biped robot
(2006)This thesis is composed of the following five parts: construction of a 6 Degrees of Freedom (DOF) biped robot, control system design, analysis of forward kinematics and inverse kinematics, walking pattern planning, and ... -
Design and Development of Dual Tuned 19F and 1H RF Birdcage Coils for Small Animal MRI at 3T
(2015)Conventional proton (1H) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is generally insensitive to the lung due to the low tissue density and other complicating factors. On the other hand, inhaled inert fluorinated gas MRI is a ... -
Design and electrochemical study of Pd-based nanostructures for hydrogen economy
(2017)Hydrogen storage remains one of the most challenging prerequisites to overcome toward the realization of a hydrogen based economy. The use of hydrogen as an energy carrier for fuel cell applications has been limited by the ... -
Design and evaluation of a clinical organ-targeted positron emission tomography camera
(2023)Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a non-invasive medical imaging technique which usesradioactive tracers to visualize the metabolic or biochemical function of tissues and organs. PET imaging aides in the accurate ... -
Design and evaluation of novel fluorescent molecular probes targeting cathepsin B
(2020)Lysosomal cysteine proteinase cathepsin B (CTB) is a member of the cysteine protease family known to participate in intracellular degradation processes and protein turnover in the lysosomes of healthy cells. Cathepsin B ... -
Design and implementation of a tunable vibration absorber and a time-delayed vibration absorber
(2005)Includes studies of a tunable electromagnetic vibration absorber and a time-delayed vibration absorber. -
Design and modeling of a CMOS VCO using wave digital filters / by WeiBo Li.
(2007)Wave digital filters (WDFs) transform an analog network into a topologically equivalent digital structure. A natural application of WDF is the simulation of electric circuits since measurements of any desired node voltages ... -
Design and synthesis of small molecule ligands targeting protease-activated receptor 2 as potential diagnostic and therapeutic agents
(2021)Positron emission tomography (PET) imaging requires radionuclides (positron-emitters) labeled molecules (tracers) to image biochemical and physiological processes in vivo and helps diagnose diseases noninvasively. The ... -
Design and testing of a permeable reactive barrier system for treatment of sulphate rich waters at the former steep rock iron mine, Atikokan, Ontario
(2015)Acid mine drainage (AMD) is one of the greatest challenges facing the mining industry globally. Methods for addressing this issue have been widely studied; however, few studies have addressed sites with a less common water ... -
Design methodology for Class D ultrasound transducer drivers
(2021)Ultrasound refers to sound waves with frequencies above the upper limit of human hearing. Due to the high frequency, the energy can be concentrated and used for therapeutic applications, such as ultrasound imaging ... -
A Design Methodology for Low Power CMOS Current Source
(2016)A current reference circuit is a basic building block in analog, digital and mixed-signal design systems. This work focuses on one type of integrated CMOS current reference circuit. This source only uses one type of ... -
Design of a 6-DOF haptic interface for robotic teleoperation
(2008)Teleoperation has become increasingly important in medical applications, handling hazardous materials, as well as in other robotics applications. Force feedback in such systems is essential; therefore a haptic device is ... -
Design of a beam-steerable microstrip line based leaky wave antenna using uniaxial field programmable microwave substrate (FPMS)
(2021)The ever-growing wireless technologies of today are pushing the limits of the state-of-the-art radio frequency (RF) components design. One special requirement which is widely needed in modern applications is for the RF ... -
