The Dependence of Halo Mass on Galaxy Size at Fixed Stellar Mass Using Weak Lensing
(University of Waterloo, 2017-04-24)Stellar mass has been shown to correlate with halo mass, but with significant scatter. The stellar mass-size and luminosity-size relationships of galaxies also show significant scatter in galaxy sizes for a fixed stellar ... -
The Dependence of Radio-Mode Feedback on Baryonic and Halo Mass
(University of Waterloo, 2014-08-26)Supermassive black holes launch powerful radio-synchrotron jets into the hot atmospheres of galaxy clusters, creating bubbles of displaced gas and driving shock fronts. These jets output a tremendous amount of energy, ... -
Dependence: From classical copula modeling to neural networks

Dependency of shoulder muscle activation on simulated labral conditions during isometric and functional tasks
(University of Waterloo, 2023-08-14)Glenohumeral (GH) joint stability depends on a combination of shoulder muscular action and the glenoid labrum. Labral injuries and degenerations can affect glenohumeral joint reaction forces and potentially modify shoulder ... -
A Dependency Tracking Storage System for Optimistic Execution of Serverless Applications
(University of Waterloo, 2022-12-20)Serverless computing has become an increasingly popular paradigm for building cloud applications. There has been a recent trend of building stateful applications on top of serverless platforms in the form of workflows ... -
The Depiction of Unwritten Law
(University of Waterloo, 2016-12-14)Even though tacit legal norms are deeply important to our past, present, and future, the very idea of unwritten law has been difficult to pin down, and problematic in a range of ways. Existing discussions of the phenomenon ... -
Deployable Vibration Control Systems for Lightweight Structures
(University of Waterloo, 2019-03-27)The recent push towards lightweight, efficient, and innovative structural designs has brought forth a range of vibration control issues related to implementation, effectiveness, and control system design that are not fully ... -
Deployment and Debugging of Real-Time Applications on Multicore Architectures
(University of Waterloo, 2015-09-29)It is essential to enable information extraction from software. Program tracing techniques are an example of information extraction. Program tracing extracts information from the program during execution. Tracing helps ... -
"Depression Is A Medical Condition": Exploring the Medicalization of Depression on SSRI Websites
(University of Waterloo, 2007-08-30)ABSTRACT “DEPRESSION IS A MEDICAL CONDITION”: EXPLORING THE MEDICALIZATION OF DEPRESSION ON SSRI WEBSITES Sociologists of medicine have become increasingly interested in mental health over the last two decades ... -
