Multicriteria feasibility assessment of BioSuccinic acid production from lignocellulosic biomass
(2023)
The goal of any lignocellulosic based biorefinery should be to produce a spectrum of marketable
products and energy utilizing all significant components of biomass. Depending on the maturity
of available technology, ...
Blockchain and artificial intelligence enabled peer-to-peer energy trading in smart grids
(2023)
Peer-to-peer (P2P) energy trading allows smart grid-connected parties to trade renewable energy with each other. It is widely considered a scheme to mitigate the supplydemand imbalances during peak-hour. In a P2P energy ...
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 ...
Studying the properties of engineered wood products
(2023)
Glulam and OSB are great building alternatives to typical materials in terms of
their strength, aesthetics, and economical nature. North America mostly uses Spruce,
Pine, and Fir (SPF) owing to their superior strength ...
A review of forestry’s impacts on methylmercury in aquatic ecosystems and recommendations for best management practices in Ontario’s boreal forest
(2023)
Mercury contamination in freshwater fish of Northern Ontario is exceeding
levels safe for consumption and is negatively impacting remote communities. This

An overview and update of low-impact developments (LIDS) in Thunder Bay
(2023)
Climate change is accelerating at a rapid pace across the globe and with this, flooding in
urban environments is also increasing. This means that there is and will be an increasing
need for alternative methods of stormwater ...
Temporal patterns of ungulate vehicle collisions in the Thunder Bay area
(2023)
Rising road densities, higher vehicle speed limits, and increased traffic volumes, combined with
growth in the density of various deer species, have increased the risk of wildlife-vehicle
collisions across the world. The ...
Light-weight federated learning with augmented knowledge distillation for human activity recognition
(2023)
The field of deep learning has experienced significant growth in recent years in various
domains where data can be collected and processed. However, as data plays a central role in
the deep learning revolution, there are ...
2D geometric morphometrics of murine mandibular toothrows from Liang Bua (Flores, Indonesia): implications for taxonomic identification
(2022)
This study uses—and evaluates the efficacy of—two-dimensional geometric
morphometrics (2DGM) to quantitatively characterize the size and shape of murine rodent (i.e.,
rat) mandibular molar rows from the archaeological ...
