Filtering antennas based on rectangular dielectric resonators
(2023-12-01)Filters and antennas are essential components in communication systems. Being able to simultaneously realize filter and radiation functions, filtering antennas have attracted much attention due to their compactness and low ... -
Filtering honeywords using probabilistic context free grammar
(2023-10-01)With the growing prevalence of cyber threats, effective password policies have become crucial for safeguarding sensitive information. Traditional password-based authentication techniques are open to a number of threats. ... -
Final Report for the 2022-23 Peer Wellness Education
(University of Ontario Institute of Technology, 2023)University students are known to be physically inactive, have a poor diet, and engage in substance use, all of which correlate with a variety of chronic conditions and poor health outcomes. During this stage of life, ... -
Finding success in life: the voices of at-risk youth
(2020-04-01)The aim of this dissertation is to rethink and broaden the understanding of success from the perspectives of at-risk youth. Current conceptualizations of success commonly found in criminological literature are based on ... -
Firefighter resilience assessment using a structured approach
(2019-12-01)This thesis proposes a resilience assessment model to assess the physiological changes experienced during a simulated firefighting environment. Currently, a resilience assessment model that measures the response to job ... -
First principles calculations of transition metal complexes for artificial photosynthesis
(2015-08-01)Nanoscale devices using transition metals have shown promise in the renewable energy context for their robustness and scalability. In artificial photosynthetic devices, light harvesting molecules drive reactions which ... -
First steps toward the construction of a channel cell for electrochemical studies under hydrothermal conditions
(2015-08-01)The high-T,p channel flow cell (HT-CFC) for electrochemical studies under hydrothermal conditions would allow to investigate at a fundamental level the interaction between new materials and media conditions such those found ... -
A flexible, longitudinal and surrogate consent model: Consent of Infants for Neonatal Secondary-use research (CoINS) Model
(2020-04-01)Documenting healthcare, along with technology enabling capture of streaming patient telemetry, can deliver large datasets offering opportunities to discover new insights primarily identified through retrospective secondary ... -
Flow characteristics and acoustic resonance excitation of finned cylinders in cross-flow
(2022-12-01)The flow characteristics and acoustic resonance excitation of bare and finned cylinders of different arrangements in cross-flow were experimentally investigated. In the design phase of finned tube heat exchangers, finned ... -
Flow-sound interaction mechanism of a single finned cylinder in cross-flow
(2017-04-01)The flow-sound interaction mechanism of a single finned cylinder in cross-flow is experimentally investigated and compared to that resulting from an equivalent bare cylinder. The flow field changes that result from the ... -
Flow-sound interaction mechanism of a single spirally finned cylinder in cross-flow
(2017-01-01)Over the years, some effort has been expended in the improvement of heat transfer performance in tubular heat exchangers. This can be achieved by adding different types of fins to the outer tube surface, effectively ... -
Fluid transport and entropy production in electrochemical and microchannel droplet flows
(2012-04-01)The growth of energy demand in the world requires addressing the increasing power requirements of industrial and residential consumers. Optimizing the design of new and existing large power producing systems can efficiently ... -
“Foids have no soul, they are not human.” A sociological examination of the language used by an online male supremacy group.
(2020-06-01)The online incel community has seen a rise in participation and mainstream media attention, largely due to recent mass murders targeting women committed by self-identified members. Scholarship has therefore focused on the ... -
Forensic analysis of unallocated space
(2011-06-01)Computer forensics has become an important technology in providing evidence in investigations of computer misuse, attacks against computer systems and more traditional crimes like money laundering and fraud where digital ... -
Forensic electrochemistry: time since deposition (TSD) estimation of degrading bloodstains using differential pulse voltammetry
(2021-12-01)Methods for bloodstain time since deposition (TSD) estimation are still in development. Hemoglobin (Hb) oxidative changes remain one of the primary means of bloodstain aging. This research explores the use of differential ... -
Formerly incarcerated women’s online accounts of pathways to criminality and incarceration: a contribution to feminist pathways theory
(2023-11-01)Some feminist scholars argue that pathways research is not truly representative of girls’ and women’s pathways to crime. This paper uses the gendered pathways theory that recognizes and highlights some of the unique factors ... -
Forward and reverse genetic approaches to investigate cellulose biosynthesis in Physcomitrium patens
(2021-04-01)Cellulose biosynthesis is a common feature of land plants and involves multimeric complexes composed of cellulose synthase A (CESA) proteins and other structural proteins. The exact stoichiometry of CESA proteins and ... -
Forward genetic analysis of cellulose biosynthesis inhibitor resistance and wall hydrolysis sensitivity.
(2014-09-01)The functional analysis of components involved in cellulose biosynthesis is central in understanding cell wall assembly and structure in plants. We conducted screens using the herbicides, isoxaben and flupoxam which inhibit ... -
