Multi-trophic effects of invasive species suppression in a coastal wetland
(University of Waterloo, 2021-05-25)Wetlands provide essential habitat for hundreds of species, including many that are of conservation concern in Canada. In southern Ontario, two wetland complexes, Long Point Peninsula and Rondeau Provincial Park, represent ... -
Multi-User File System Search
(University of Waterloo, 2007-08-03)Information retrieval research usually deals with globally visible, static document collections. Practical applications, in contrast, like file system search and enterprise search, have to cope with highly dynamic text ... -
Multi-View Imaging of Drosophila Embryos
(University of Waterloo, 2008-09-24)There are several reasons for imaging a single, developing embryo from multiple view points. The embryo is a complex biomechanical system and morphogenesis movements in one region typically produce motions in adjacent ... -
Multi-wavelength distributed feedback lasers

Multiaxial cyclic behaviour and fatigue modelling of AM30 Mg alloy extrusion
(Elsevier, 2017-04-01)Multiaxial fatigue characteristics of AM30 Mg alloy extrusion are studied through fully-reversed strain controlled cyclic experiments including pure torsional and combined axial-torsional at 0, 45 and 90 phase angle shifts. ... -
Multiaxial Fatigue Characterization and Modeling of AZ31B Magnesium Extrusion
(University of Waterloo, 2012-01-04)The demand for lightweight materials in automobiles has been motivated by two factors: fuel economy and air pollution reduction. One of the first steps taken in automotive vehicle weight reduction was the use of aluminum ... -
Multiaxial fatigue response of normalized 1045 steel subjected to periodic overloads, experiments and analysis

A Multiclassifier Approach to Motor Unit Potential Classification for EMG Signal Decomposition
(University of Waterloo, 2006)EMG signal decomposition is the process of resolving a composite EMG signal into its constituent motor unit potential trains (classes) and it can be configured as a classification problem. An EMG signal detected by the ... -
Multicomponent Free Radical Polymerization Model Refinements and Extensions with Depropagation
(University of Waterloo, 2010-09-29)This thesis is directed towards expanding and refining a free radical multi-component polymerization model. The model considers up to six monomers (unique in the literature), both in bulk and solution polymerization, for ... -
Multicomponent simulation of wastewater-derived nitrogen and carbon in shallow unconfined aquifiers
(University of Waterloo, 1997) -
Multicopper Laccase Mimicking Nanozymes with Nucleotides as Ligands
(American Chemical Society, 2017-01-18)Using nanomaterials to achieve functional enzyme mimics (nanozymes) is attractive for both applied and fundamental research. Laccases are multicopper oxidases highly important for biotechnology and environmental remediation. ... -
Multicultural Planning in Mid-Sized Cities
(University of Waterloo, 2015-01-15)Multiculturalism embraces racial and cultural differences within a society. This is a well-established aspect of Canadian life, especially in Canada’s largest cities because the majority of immigrants prefer to settle in ... -
Multiculturalism: The Un/making of an In/visible Un/problematic Citizen
(University of Waterloo, 2021-01-06)This thesis explores the lived experiences of Chinese Canadian youth (n=9) and their understandings of multiculturalism and racialization in Ontario, Canada. Canada is often cited as the epitome of acceptance and cultural ... -
A Multidimensional Model of Biological Sex
(University of Waterloo, 2012-01-10)This dissertation is about biological sex and how we ought to make sense of it. By biological sex I mean those elements of an individual’s body that are involved in reproduction of the individual’s species; by make sense ... -
Multidimensional Vinogradov-type Estimates in Function Fields
(Cambridge University Press, 2014)Let Fq[t] denote the polynomial ring over the finite field Fq. We employ Wooley’s new efficient congruencing method to prove certain multidimensional Vinogradov-type estimates in Fq[t]. These results allow us to apply a ... -
Multidisciplinary Design Optimization of NAFTA Supply Chains
(University of Waterloo, 2008-09-01)Supply chain management is the set of tasks through which businesses acquire, process, and move raw materials and final products from suppliers through factories and distribution points to customers. The mathematical ... -
Multidisciplinary Optimization of Hybrid Electric Vehicles: Component Sizing and Power Management Logic
(University of Waterloo, 2011-06-16)A survey of the existing literature indicates that optimization on the power management logic of hybrid electric vehicle is mostly performed after the design of the powertrain architecture or the power source components ... -
Multifaceted Approaches to Enhancing Shoulder Health in Breast Cancer Patients undergoing Radiation Therapy: quantification of treatment effects and rib fracture prediction assessment
(University of Waterloo, 2024-04-11)Radiotherapy is a highly effective treatment for breast cancer, but it is also associated with several complications that can impact patients’ quality of life and overall survival. This dissertation addressed the lack of ... -
Multifrequency Raman Generation in the Transient Regime
(University of Waterloo, 2006)Two colour pumping was used to investigate the short-pulse technique of Multifrequency Raman Generation (MRG) in the transient regime of Raman scattering. In the course of this study we have demonstrated the ability to ... -
