(2002)What is there in common between socialism and labour in Canada? Or, phrased differently, is there a history of socialism and the labour movement in Canada? Historians and other academics have asked themselves these ... -
Transforming ordinary linear differential equations to constant coefficient differential equations
(1978)The main purpose of this thesis is to give a characterization of nth order linear homogeneous differential equations that can be transformed into constant coefficient differential equations. The characterization given ... -
Transient oxygen uptake response as an indicator of sports specific adaptation
(1987)A cross-sectional design examined aerobic power and transient oxygen uptake responses of four male sports groups (cyclists, runners, swimmers, and cross-country skiers). Data was collected via three modes of ergometry ... -
Transport of Escherichia coli through soil / by Bruce Rosa.

Travelling cable system : apparatus development, system modeling, and vibration control
(2005)The vibration of axially moving materials with arbitrarily varying length has received increased attention due to both the interesting behaviours of such systems and the many applications such as deep mine hoisting ... -
Treatment of synthetic Kraft evaporator condensate and thermomechanical pulp pressate using novel thermophilic and mesophilic bioreactors / by Meiru Zheng.
(2008)A comparative study on the treatment of synthetic kraft evaporator condensate and thermomechanical pulp (TMP) pressate between thermophilic (55°C) and mesophilic (30°C) temperature was conducted using sequencing batch ... -
Trends and variability of temperature and precipitation in Northwestern Ontario during the 20th century : implications for forest management
(2000)Time series of temperature and rainfall in Northwestern Ontario are joined and adjusted to provide a database for analysis of regional climate change. Processes used to locate and adjust for non-climatic discontinuities ... -
Triangular finite element solution to boundary value problems
(1977)This Thesis discusses the triangular finite element solution to second order elliptic boundary value problems. The Barycentric Coordinate system, which some engineers call the areal coordinate system, is used throughout ... -
Tribunal of the mind : images of justice in The faerie queene
(1975)This thesis surveys the action and structure of Spenser's The Faerie Queene from the perspective of the ideal of justice. Its basic assumption is that fundamentally the poem is an account of the quest for justice in three ... -
