Integration of international students at Lakehead University - "The Path of Sahanubhooti"
(2018)The portfolio will focus on the increasing internationalization of programs and student populations in Canadian Universities. It will largely focus on the roles, support systems and responsiveness by Lakehead University ... -
Intelligent and cost-effective protection schemes for improved reliability of large-scale wind farms
(2021)Recently, wind power has become a reliable and cost-effective renewable energy source of electricity due to the foreseeable exhaustion of fossil fuel-based power generations and its growing adverse effects on the environment ... -
An intelligent monitoring system for online induction motor fault diagnostics
(2019)For more than a century, the induction motor (IM) has been the powerhouse industrial applications such as machine tools, manufacturing facilities, pumping stations, and more recently, in electric vehicles. In addition, ... -
Intelligent sliding mode control in flexible structures
(2012-11-10)The first objective of this work is to develop an intelligent sliding mode controller for vibration control in flexible structures. The proposed control consists of two processes: system identification and sliding mode ... -
Intelligent states for angular momentum and Su(3) observables / by Benjamin R. Lavoie.
(2007)We generate expressions for all of the su(2) and su(3) intelligent states. To do so we combine well known coupling methods with unitary transformations; the construction is simple and efficient, and can be extended to ... -
An intelligent system for fault diagnosis in gearboxes
(2022)Gearboxes are commonly used in rotating machinery for power transmission. A gearbox consists of shafts, gears, and bearings, each component having specific mechanical dynamics and fault properties. Reliable gearbox fault ... -
An intelligent system for temperature monitoring and brake drum cooling
(2018)Brakes convert the kinetic energy of the moving vehicle into heat energy due to friction between fixed and moving brake parts. Frequent applications of the brakes will cause overheating in brake parts, which could generate ... -
Intelligent systems for active vibration control in flexible engineering structures / by Ji Xiaoxu.
(2008)Vibration arises in almost all moving structures. Vibration control is important to many applications such as robotic arms, aircraft wings, buildings in wind, vehicle transmission systems,to name but a few. The objective ... -
Intelligent vehicle-to-vehicle communications with importance of fairness and information freshness
(2023)Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) showcase cutting-edge services designed to revolutionize transportation and mobility, especially within future smart cities. These services play a pivotal role in bolstering traffic ... -
Inter-occupational and inter-industry empirical analysis of labour market segmentation in Canada
(1987)The theory of labour market segmentation represents an assault on the conventional tenets held by the neoclassical school of labour economics. Essentially, the segmentation approach views the economic structure of the ... -
Interaction of lignin derivatives with polymers, ions and soft surfaces in aqueous systems
(2021)Lignin is one of the most abundant biopolymers on earth which has recently gained considerable attention due to its unique potentials to be used in many applications. Many efforts have been made in improving the compatibility ... -
Interaction of Pseudomonas putida and Listeria monocytogenes in mixed culture biofilms / by Greg Kepka.
(2008)"Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogen that causes problems in many food processing plants because it produces biofilms and thus is difficult to control by regular cleaning and sanitizing procedures. It has been ... -
Interactive effects of elevated CO2 and temperature, nutrition, and ectomycorrhizas on morphological traits and summer shoot formation in jack pine
(2022)Understanding the responses of trees, ectomycorrhizal fungi (ECM) and their association to climate change can be challenging due to their interactions with multiple environmental factors. The combined impacts of elevated ... -
Interactive effects of soil temperature and resource availability on physiological and growth responses of white birch (Betula papyrifera) seedlings to atmospheric carbon dioxide elevation
(2009)Predicting the impacts of future high atmospheric CO2 concentration, [CO2], on the physiology and growth of boreal forests is complicated by interactions of CO2 with other environmental conditions. Two-factor CO2 x environment ... -
The interface between the multinational corporation and the state with special reference to developing countries
(1975)This study considers the role of multinational corporations and their impact on the development process of the developing countries, and consequently their implications for international relations. The purpose is to formulate ... -
Interfacing an aggregate wood supply model with a geographic information system
(1994)By developing a general interface between forest planning models and geographic information systems, the forest planner is capable of spatially analyzing the results of wood supply analysis. The planner can change the ... -
Interfamily variation in wood quality of black spruce in a northwestern Ontario progeny trial
(2020)The right trees for replanting must be selected to ensure optimal future forest conditions. Based on desired future outcomes, various progenies can be selected to suit these needs. In Canada, black spruce (Picea mariana), ... -
Interference of aquatic plants associated with wild rice (Zizania palustril L.)
(1995)The objective of this thesis was to determine the interference potential of aquatic plants to wild rice (Zizania palustris L. ) through field and laboratory studies. Three companion papers describe the influence of ... -
Intergenerational transmission of child sexual abuse : partner preference, boundaries, safety evaluation, and attachment among female survivors / Holly M. Cooper --
(2005)Researchers have documented that child sexual abuse (CSA) tends to follow a multigenerational pattern in families. Female CSA survivors are likely to report significant parenting difficulties, particularly with boundary ... -
