Beyond recursive patterning: visual representations to promote algebraic thinking with primary students
(2016)
This case study examined the impact of using designed visual representations of simple
linear functions on Grade 2/3 students’ development of algebraic thinking. I also looked
for the connections between the use of visual ...
Modal identification of time-varying structures using the blind source separation techniques
(2016)
In last few decades, Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) has been an indispensable subject
in the field of vibration engineering. With the aid of modern sensing technology, SHM has
garnered significant attention towards ...
Secoisolariciresinol diglucoside reduces cell death and upregulates antioxidants in cardiac iron overload
(2016)
Iron is essential to many biological and metabolic processes used in all organisms, but excess iron can result in complications such as cirrhosis, diabetes, and heart failure. Cardiac iron overload has been linked to ...
Habitat selection in the Common Five-lined Skink near the northern extent of its range
(2016)
The study of habitat selection is vital to identify potential threats and to conserve species at risk. The consequences of living in a particular habitat can influence processes beyond the individual with observable effects ...
Effects of process operating conditions on performance and membrane fouling in submerged anaerobic membrane bioreactors (AnMBRs)
(2016)
Submerged anaerobic membrane bioreactor (SAnMBR) technology is becoming an attractive alternative for industrial wastewater treatment as it improves the biological process while allowing for the recovery of energy through ...
Sedimentology and paleogeographic reconstruction of the strata in and adjacent to the Sudbury impact layer in the northern Paleoproterozoic Animikie basin
(2016)
The Sudbury Impact Layer (S.I.L.) is dated at 1850 Ma and is located between the
underlying Gunflint Formation, with an age of 1878±1 Ma that was obtained from zircons in a
tuffaceous zone approximately 105 meters below ...
The effect of leg dominance on lower limb kinematics during a 180° pivot maneuver in healthy female soccer players at three different stages of physical maturation
(2016)
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of leg dominance on lower limb
kinematics during a 180° pivot maneuver in healthy female soccer players at three different
stages of maturation: pre-pubertal, pubertal, ...
Autonomous navigation using image processing
(2016)
In the recent years, the pursuit intelligent and self-operated machines have increased. The human user is to be completely eliminated or minimized as much as possible. It is also popular now to observe machines that are ...
C-N bond formation employing palladium and nickel precatalysts containing anionic phosphinobenzimidazole ligands
(2016)
In this investigation, the catalytic utility of anionic, phosphinobenzimidzoles
[Li(THF)2][1a] and [Li(THF)4][1b] in effecting the Buchwald-Hartwig amination reaction was
examined. Specifically, the coordination chemistry ...
Tree species diversity and stability in disturbance-driven boreal forest
(2016)
Disturbance is a potent driver of forests. Components of disturbance such as frequency (i.e., time
since last stand-replacing disturbance) and intensity (e.g., stand-replacing vs. non-stand-replacing
disturbance) plays ...
