Lost in Translation: How the perception of Characters change in the German Translations of J.R.R. Tolkiens "The Lord of the Rings"
(University of Waterloo, 2022-01-20)It is an accepted paradigm that translated texts will never be the perfect equivalent to the original text in a different language. It is a fact that foreign literary works will influence a culture through translations. ... -
Lost River: The Artefacts of Toronto's Garrison Creek
(University of Waterloo, 2012-09-27)Once the founding site of the city of Toronto and its second largest watercourse, the Garrison Creek and its original landscape of dense forest and deep ravines have disappeared beneath an aggressive process of development ... -
Lot-Sizing of Several Multi-Product Families
(University of Waterloo, 2018-04-19)Production planning problems and its variants are widely studied in operations management and optimization literature. One variation that has not garnered much attention is the presence of multiple production families in ... -
Love in the Time of Caller ID: Understanding the Role of Smartphone Technology in Committed Relationships
(University of Waterloo, 2018-08-23)Smartphones have changed the way our world works, and have had particularly unique impacts on the way human relationships function. Among the most important of those relationships are the ones that people form by choice ... -
Low back pain development differentially influences centre of pressure regularity following prolonged standing
(Elsevier, 2017-06-27)Occupations requiring prolonged periods of static standing are associated with the development of low back pain (LBP). Certain individuals are susceptible to LBP development during prolonged standing (pain developers, PDs) ... -
Low Cost Thermal Imaging System for Welding Applications
(University of Waterloo, 2016-09-29)A significant component of welding research is devoted to studying the relationship between welding parameters and material properties. The fundamental link between process parameters and material properties is established ... -
Low Cost Wet Diaper Detector System
(University of Waterloo, 2021-08-12)The role of smart wet diaper detectors to health caregivers cannot be over-emphasized. Prolong wetness in patients and babies is one of the major causes of rashes especially when the wetness is not detected on time. ... -
Low Density Polyethylene, Expanded Polystyrene and Expanded Polypropylene: Strain Rate and Size Effects on Mechanical Properties
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2016-08)Polymeric foam materials may be used as energy absorbing materials for protection in impact scenarios, and design with these materials requires the mechanical properties of foams across a range of deformation rates, where ... -
Low heterospecific pollen deposition on native plant stigmas despite high exotic abundance in southern Ontario meadows
(University of Waterloo, 2015-02-17)In southern Ontario many meadow remnants are found within protected areas, including Conservation Authorities. These meadows occupy a fraction of their former area and are typically dominated by exotic species, yet they ... -
A Low Jitter Analog Circuit for Precisely Correcting Timing Skews in Time Interleaved Analog-to-Digital Converters
(University of Waterloo, 2013-12-02)Time-interleaved analog-to-digital converters are an attractive architecture for achieving a high speed, high resolution ADC in a power efficient manner. However, due to process and manufacturing variations, timing skews ... -
Low Mobility Cable Robot with Application to Robotic Warehousing
(University of Waterloo, 2014-10-17)Cable-based robots consist of a rigid mobile platform connected via flexible links (cables, wires, tendons) to a surrounding static platform. The use of cables simplifies the mechanical structure and reduces the inertia, ... -
