Critical Reading Across the Engineering Disciplines
(Association of College and Research Libraries a Division of the American Library Association, 2023-01)Engineering students spend a significant amount of time discovering, evaluating, and reading/interpreting information. This book chapter discusses the existing knowledge around undergraduate engineering student information ... -
Both Sides Now: Growth Through Shared Learning in Mentoring Relationships
(Ontario Library Association, 2023-02-02)There is a broad recognition of the importance and value of mentoring to the library profession, especially for early career professionals (Freedman, 2009; Irwin, 2021). In Canada many new LIS graduates often work in ... -
Surface solar radiation and lake productivity: Investigating a global relationship
(University of Waterloo, 2021-04-14)In recent decades, the intensity and frequency of lake algal blooms have been increasing worldwide. In addition to potentially toxic effects for humans and wildlife, intense algal blooms negatively impact recreation and ... -
Probabilistic Fretting Fatigue Analysis of Bridge Stay Cables at Saddle Supports
(Taylor and Francis, 2020-01)Saddle systems have been used on recent projects to support the cables in cable-stayed and extradosed bridge structures. A major design consideration for these anchorage systems is the in-service fretting fatigue behaviour ... -
A Review of the Fatigue Limit for Steel Bridges under Ontario Highway Traffic Loading
(Canadian Science Publishing, 2022-12)In many design codes for roadway bridges, it is required that a design truck be passed over influence lines for stress at various locations on the bridge to obtain nominal stress ranges for design. For the fatigue design ... -
Response of vegetation and net ecosystem carbon dioxide exchange at different peatland microforms following water table drawdown
(American Geophysical Union, Wiley, 2006-05-17)Northern peatlands are significant stocks of terrestrial soil carbon, and it has been predicted that warmer temperatures and lower water tables resulting from climate change will convert these ecosystems into sources for ... -
Dynamics of biogenic gas bubbles in peat and their effects on peatland biogeochemistry
(American Geophysical Union, Wiley, 2005-01-18)Production and emission of peat gas has attracted great interest because substantial amounts of methane (CH4) are emitted to the atmosphere from peat soils. Many studies indicate supersaturation of CH4 in peat water, ... -
A softly optimal Monte Carlo algorithm for solving bivariate polynomial systems over the integers
(Elsevier, 2016-06)We give an algorithm for the symbolic solution of polynomial systems in Z[X,Y]. Following previous work with Lebreton, we use a combination of lifting and modular composition techniques, relying in particular on Kedlaya ... -
On the evaluation of some sparse polynomials
(American Mathematical Society, 2018)We give algorithms for the evaluation of sparse polynomials of the form P=p0 + p1 x + p2 x^4 + ... + p_{n-1} x^{(N-1)^2} for various choices of coefficients . First, we take p_i=p^i, for some fixed p; in this case, we ... -
Incorporating Breastfeeding-Related Variability with Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling to Predict Infant Exposure to Maternal Medication Through Breast Milk: a Workflow Applied to Lamotrigine
(Springer Nature, 2021-05-17)Current methods to assess risk in infants exposed to maternal medication through breast milk do not specifically account for infants most vulnerable to high drug exposure. A workflow applied to lamotrigine incorporated ... -
Like Parent, Like Millennial: Inherited and Switched (Non)Religion Among Young Adults in the U.S. and Canada
(Brill, 2020-05-27)Using novel quantitative data from the Millennial Trends Survey administered online in March 2019 with over 2,500 respondents between the ages of 18 and 35 in both Canada and the U.S., we examine in detail inherited ... -
Digital Religion Among U.S. and Canadian Millennial Adults
(Springer, 2022-06)Background Although there is a growing body of research on the nature and content of digital religion, we still know little about the prevalence of digital religious and spiritual practices among different populations in ... -
Clinical Pharmacy Services in Ambulatory Oncology: An Environmental Scan of the Canadian Practice Landscape
(University of Waterloo, 2023-02-21)Background: Canadian clinical pharmacy key performance indicators (cpKPIs) have been developed for inpatient hospital practice but are not established for ambulatory oncology. This study represents the first step in ... -
Evaluation of a microlearning module on hypertension in Canada
(University of Waterloo, 2023-02-20)Objectives: To use a microlearning platform to evaluate pharmacists’ knowledge and behaviour related to hypertension. Methods: Pharmacy 5in5 is an online microlearning platform designed to help pharmacy professionals ... -
Towards Olefin Multi-block Copolymers with Tailored Properties: A Molecular Perspective
(Wiley, 2021-05)Recent progress in macromolecular reaction engineering has enabled the synthesis of sequence-controlled polymers. The advent of Olefin Block Copolymers (OBCs) via chain shuttling polymerization of ethylene with α-olefins ... -
“‘Brosser l’histoire à rebrousse-poil’: l’affaire Dubuisson revisitée
(Érudit, 2021-06-17)L’affaire Dubuisson concerne le procès criminel de Pauline Dubuisson qui a abattu son ancien amant. La mémoire de l’Occupation a joué un rôle déterminant dans ce procès en 1953. Alors que les récits de l’époque vilipendent ... -
Classical regression and predictive modeling
(Elsevier, 2022-05)BACKGROUND: With the advent of personalized and stratified medicine, there has been much discussion about predictive modeling and the role of classical regression in modern medical research. We describe and distinguish the ... -
The polytomous discrimination index for prediction involving multistate processes under intermittent observation
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2022-08-30)With the increasing importance of predictive modeling in health research comes the need for methods to rigorously assess predictive accuracy. We consider the problem of evaluating the accuracy of predictive models for ... -
Incorporating Ligament Laxity in the Upper Cervical Spine for Finite Element Modeling
(Elsevier, 2017-06-30)Background Context: Predicting physiological range of motion (ROM) using a finite element (FE) model of the upper cervical spine requires the incorporation of ligament laxity. The effect of ligament laxity can only be ... -
Head and Neck Response of an Active 2 Human Body Model and Finite Element 3 Anthropometric Test Device During a 4 Linear Impactor Helmet Test
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2020-02-01)It has been proposed that neck muscle activation may play a role in head response resulting from impacts in American Football. The importance of neck stiffness and active musculature in the standard Linear Impactor Helmet ...
