The Chronology of the Desecration of the Temple and the Prophecies of Daniel 7–12 Reconsidered
(Stuttgart: Franz Steiner Verlag, 2019-12-01)Generations of scholars have been puzzled by the chronological time frame that the Seleukid prophecies of Daniel 7–12 are structured around. Basic to the problem is Dan 11.40–45, which clearly implies that the author did ... -
The Churches of Pelion: Vessels of Faith, Tradition, & Cultural Endurance in Post-Byzantine Greece
(University of Waterloo, 2022-06-01)This research presents a regional, historical, and architectural study of the ecclesiastic landscape of Mount Pelion – a vast, rugged mountain range in Thessaly, Greece. Specifically, it explores the physical and metaphysical ... -
Cigarette Access Behaviours among Underage Canadian Youth Smokers
(University of Waterloo, 2011-08-24)Objective: The main objective was to examine characteristics associated with cigarette access behaviours among underage current youth smokers. Methods: This cross-sectional study used self-reported data collected from ... -
Cinnamaldehyde Characterization as an Antibacterial Agent toward E. coli Metabolic Profile Using 96-Blade Solid-Phase Microextraction Coupled to Liquid Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry
(American Chemical Society, 2016-01-26)Sampling and sample preparation plays an important role in untargeted analysis as it influences final composition of the analyzed extract and consequently reflection of the metabolome. In the current work, mechanism of ... -
Circle Graph Obstructions
(University of Waterloo, 2017-08-31)In this thesis we present a self-contained proof of Bouchet’s characterization of the class of circle graphs. The proof uses signed graphs and is analogous to Gerards’ graphic proof of Tutte’s excluded-minor characterization ... -
Circuit Complexity of Mixed States
(University of Waterloo, 2021-07-20)Quantum information has produced fresh insights into foundational questions about the AdS/CFT correspondence. One fascinating concept, which has captured increasing attention, is quantum circuit complexity. As a natural ... -
Circuit Design of SRAM Physically Unclonable Functions
(University of Waterloo, 2017-09-06)A Physically Unclonable Function (PUF) is an entity that reliably provides a unique response to a given challenge and cannot be easily duplicated physically. PUFs are an alternative to using non-volatile memory (NVM) for ... -
Circuit Model Parameter Extraction and Optimization for Microwave Filters
(University of Waterloo, 2002)This thesis presents a method for parameter extraction of circuit elements from microwave filters. This diagnosis method can be applied to a sufficiently large number of filters and it can also be used in conjunction ... -
Circuit Quantum Electrodynamics with Flux Qubits
(University of Waterloo, 2019-09-23)This thesis presents circuit quantum electrodynamic (cQED) experiments done with artificial atoms coupled to a high quality factor superconducting microwave resonator. This work discusses the theoretical framework, design, ... -
Circuit-Theoretic Physics-Based Antenna Synthesis and Design Techniques for Next-Generation Wireless Devices
(University of Waterloo, 2013-12-12)Performance levels expected from future-generation wireless networks and sensor systems are beyond the capabilities of current radio technologies. To realize information capacities much higher than those achievable through ... -
Circular economy: Joint dynamic pricing and recycling investments
(Elsevier, 2021-06-01)In a circular economy, the use of recycled resources in production is a key performance indicator for management. Yet, academic studies are still unable to inform managers on appropriate recycling and pricing policies. We ... -
Circulation and oxygen cycling in the Mediterranean Sea: Sensitivity to future climate change
(American Geophysical Union, 2016-11-12)Climate change is expected to increase temperatures and decrease precipitation in the Mediterranean Sea (MS) basin, causing substantial changes in the thermohaline circulation (THC) of both the Western Mediterranean Sea ... -
Citizen Engagement and the Governance of Sustainable Communities
(University of Waterloo, 2011-01-10)This study develops an interdisciplinary exploratory approach for understanding concepts and tools for local participation that leads towards sustainability. The research goals include : identifying effective public ... -
Citizen participation in post-disaster flood hazard mitigation planning: Exploring strategic choices in Peterborough, Ontario
(University of Waterloo, 2008-06-20)This thesis explores the role of citizen participation in a post-disaster flood hazard mitigation planning program in Peterborough, Ontario. Recognizing that citizen participation is an integral element of hazards mitigation ... -
Citizens' Attitudes to Re-Establish a Permanent Water Flow for the Colorado River Delta, North Western Mexico
(University of Waterloo, 2007-09-28)Ecosystem services and goods are non-market values that are increasingly being accounted through contingent valuation methods and more specifically by studying people’s willingness-to-pay for them. Large ecosystem restoration ... -
Citizenship for a Modern Democracy: Youth Perspectives on the Canadian Multicultural Reality
(University of Waterloo, 2009)This paper explores the links between citizenship and multiculturalism in the Ontario secondary school curriculum Grade 10 Civics course and among Ontario youth. Contemporary citizenship theory suggests that a progressive ... -
Citrate inhibition of cisplatin reaction with DNA studied using fluorescently labeled oligonucleotides: implication for selectivity towards guanine
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2013-10-21)The reaction between cisplatin and DNA is conveniently studied using fluorescently labeled oligonucleotides and gel electrophoresis; as an example of application, the inhibition of this reaction by citrate is demonstrated, ... -
