A Hardware-in-the-Loop Test Platform for Planetary Rovers
(University of Waterloo, 2011-08-02)Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) test platform for planetary rovers was designed, fabricated and tested in the present work. The ability for planetary rover designers and mission planners to estimate the rover’s performance ... -
A Hardware/Software Fuel Gauge Analog-to-Digital Converter Solution for Mobile Electronics Applications
(University of Waterloo, 2015-10-22)Power consumption is one of the key considerations in any mobile electronics design. As technology roadmaps advance in the mobile and wearable markets, there will be an evident push for lower power consumption in terms of ... -
Harmonizing the Scale: An End-to-End Self-Supervised Approach for Cross-Modal Data Retrieval in Histopathology Archives
(University of Waterloo, 2023-09-18)In recent years, the exponential growth of data across various domains has necessitated the development of advanced techniques to process and analyze multi-modal big data. This is particularly relevant in the medical domain ... -
A Hash-Chain Based Method for Full or Partial Authentication of Communication in a Real-Time Wireless Environment
(University of Waterloo, 2010-06-25)Real-time media streams are a common application on the Internet today. For many such streams, it is necessary to provide authentication, data integrity, and non-repudiation. Some applications where this type of security ... -
Header Parsing Logic in Network Switches Using Fine and Coarse-Grained Dynamic Reconfiguration Strategies
(University of Waterloo, 2014-04-29)Current ASIC only designs which interface with a general purpose processor are fairly restricted as far as their ability to be upgraded after fabrication. The primary intent of the research documented in this thesis is ... -
Healing Through Architecture
(University of Waterloo, 2015-08-26)Numerous studies show evidence of the body’s ability to “self-heal” when put into positive healing environments. This healing is enabled by the ability of the body to ‘tap into our internal pharmacies’ by activating the ... -
HEALING UNIVER(CITY)
(University of Waterloo, 2007-04-19)Creating a sense of place; a meaningful urban landscape has been one of the great challenges of the contemporary built world. Urban fabric once molded and sanctified by religion, myth, and subtle forces, is presently ... -
Healthcare and the Environment: A Holistic Approach
(University of Waterloo, 2010-02-18)There is an increasing need for a local comprehensive cancer treatment centre that caters primarily to children. This design proposes a paediatric facility that will be located in Waterloo Region to meet the needs of the ... -
Heat Generation Measurements of Prismatic Lithium Ion Batteries
(University of Waterloo, 2013-09-27)Electric and hybrid electric vehicles are gaining momentum as a sustainable alternative to conventional combustion based transportation. The operating temperature of the vehicle will vary significantly over the vehicle ... -
Heat Release Rate in Ventilation-Limited Furniture Fires
(University of Waterloo, 2020-07-21)There has always been motivation to investigate and understand fires with hopes of implementing useful changes to fire safety procedures, standards, codes, and education. Due to the unpredictability and destructive nature ... -
Heat Transfer Analysis of a Between-Panes Venetian Blind Using Effective Longwave Radiative Properties
(American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, 2004)Center-glass thermal analysis programs based on one-dimensional models have proved to be exceptionally useful. Recently efforts have been made to extend the analysis to include venetian blinds. It is convenient to model ... -
Heat Transfer Analysis Of Windows With Venetian Blinds: A Comparative Study
(2007-06)The potential to reduce building load and annual energy consumption is widely recognized in the use of shading devices to control solar gain. Consequently, the ability to include and model shading layers in complex glazing ... -
Heat Transfer Modeling of Roller Hearth and Muffle Furnace
(University of Waterloo, 2015-08-28)In hot forming die quenching, furnaces are used to austenitize ultra high strength steel blanks. In the case of coated steels, like Usibor® 1500 P, furnace heating also transforms a protective Al-Si layer into a permanent ... -
Heavy-tail Sensitivity of Stable Portfolios
(University of Waterloo, 2010-08-31)This thesis documents a heavy-tailed analysis of stable portfolios. Stock market crashes occur more often than is predicted by a normal distribution,which provides empirical evidence that asset returns are heavy-tailed. ... -
Hedging in a Financial Market with Regime-Switching
(University of Waterloo, 2021-10-06)It is well-known that in the complete standard financial market model driven solely by Brownian motion, one can always hedge a given contingent claim starting from an appropriate initial wealth. In other words, there always ... -
Help-Seeking Behaviour in Computer-Mediated Communication
(University of Waterloo, 2016-09-19)Often when an individual decides to seek help, several communication media are available to him or her (e.g., email, phone, in-person), which means the help-seeker faces a media selection decision. To make this decision, ... -
Hemi-Isoindigo Polymers and Oligomers for Temperature Sensing Applications
(University of Waterloo, 2022-02-09)Organic semiconductors are extensively used for electronic applications such as OFETs and OPVs due to their low-cost and well-defined manufacturing processes. This includes vacuum deposition, solution processing, and ... -
Henrik Latrope
(University of Waterloo, 2018-03-20)This is a parody on Albert Camus’ The Fall, and it satirizes Contemporary Architecture’s Dystopic Marginalizations. It takes place one fateful night between a frustrated middle-aged architect, Henrik Latrope, and his ... -
