Synthesis and characterization of nanostructured catalysts for photovoltaic applications
(2013-07-01)
The objective of this project was to investigate the effect of the morphology of titanium
dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles on the electron transport properties and light harvesting potential in
a dye sensitized solar cell ...
Effects of chronic exposure to ibuprofen and naproxen on Florida flagfish (Jordanella floridae) over one complete life-cycle
(2011-08-01)
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are a class of drugs prescribed to relieve pain, fever and inflammation, and are among the most commonly consumed medications in Ontario. Approximately 70% of the ingested dose ...
Use of bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) to predict water and energy content of juvenile Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)
(2011-08-01)
Accurate measurements of energy content and body composition are essential to effectively assess the well-being of fish. Bomb calorimetry and proximate analysis are currently the most dependable and accurate methods to ...
Identification and annotation of concurrency design patterns in Java source code using static analysis.
(2011-12-01)
Concurrent software is quickly becoming a very important facet in Software Engineering due
to numerous advantages, one of which is increased processing speed. Despite it's importance,
concurrent software is fraught with ...
Cloning and characterization of AdeMNO RND efflux pump of Acinetobacter baumannii
(2010-11-01)
Acinetobacter baumannii is an opportunistic pathogen which has been implicated in a variety of nosocomial infections among immunocompromised patients worldwide. Recently, Multi-drug resistant (MDR) isolates of A. baumannii ...
Ray tracing large distributed datasets using ray caches
(2012-03-09)
Many large scale simulations now produce datasets that are signi cantly
larger than can typically be stored in memory on a visualization system. Visualization
algorithms then become ine ective and stall since the data must ...
Scalable immersive audio for virtual environments
(2018-05-01)
This thesis discusses the history of game sound and how it developed to become increasingly more immersive and realistic by accounting for the spatial aspects of sound. It then compares several 3D sound technologies before ...
Metabifurcation analysis of a phenomenological ventricular cell model
(2018-08-01)
Heart disease is the leading cause of death in America, and arrhythmia is considered one of the most important precursors of heart attacks. We cannot predict arrhythmia directly; however, it has been shown that cardiac ...
Image super resolution via non-local normalized graph Laplacian regularization
(2019-05-01)
Given we live in a digital age where images are regularly being viewed, posted, or utilized, spectators of such images on occasion could prefer a higher resolution perspective. The process of producing a high-resolution ...
Temperature dependent structural, electronic and optical properties of the Si(100) surface from first principles
(2019-04-01)
The results presented here were obtained using the local density approximation (LDA) to density functional theory (DFT), within the pseudo-potentials scheme. We present the results of the numerical simulations for the Si ...
