Evaluating Characteristic Parameters for Carbon Dioxide in the Sanchez−Lacombe Equation of State
(American Chemical Society, 2017)For many different pure substances, large numbers of competing characteristic parameter sets exist in the literature for the Sanchez−Lacombe equation of state. This is due in part to differing research requirements or ... -
Evaluating the Current State of Findability and Accessibility of Microplastics Data
(University of Waterloo, 2022-09-16)The rapid growth in microplastic pollution research is influencing funding priorities, environmental policy, and public perceptions of risks to water quality and environmental and human health. Ensuring that environmental ... -
Evaluating the feasibility of administering a combination of online dietary assessment tools in a cohort of adults in Alberta, Canada
(2017-01)Purpose: Evidence suggests that combining tools, such as 24-hour recalls and food frequency questionnaires, may allow more accurate assessment of diet in epidemiologic studies. Webbased technology should make this approach ... -
Evaluating the Sampling Design of a Long-Term Community-Based Estuary Monitoring Program
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2021-08-02)Community-based monitoring programs (CBMPs) are a cost-effective option to collect the long-term data required to effectively monitor estuaries. Data quality concerns have caused some CBMP datasets, which could fill knowledge ... -
Evaluation and calibration of anisotropic yield criteria in shear Loading: Constraints to eliminate numerical artefacts
(Elsevier, 2017-06-24)Many anisotropic phenomenological yield functions have been proposed in the literature in which their predictive capabilities strongly depend on the experimental calibration data as well as the calibration procedure to ... -
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 ... -
Evaluation of Doped and Undoped Poly (o-anisidine) as Sensing Materials for a Sensor Array for Volatile Organic Compounds
(Wiley, 2020-06-02)Poly (o-anisidine) (PoANI) and PoANI doped with nickel oxide and zinc oxide were evaluated as sensing materials for four gas analytes (methanol, ethanol, acetone, and benzene). The sensing materials had high sensitivity ... -
Evaluation of Electrospun Fibrous Mats Targeted for Use as Flow Battery Electrodes
(The Electrochemical Society, 2017-07-14)Electrospinning was used to create custom-made fibrous electrode materials for redox flow batteries with targeted structural properties. The aim was to increase the available surface area for electrochemical reaction without ... -
Evaluation of mercury stabilization mechanisms by sulfurized biochars determined using X-ray absorption spectroscopy
(Elsevier, 2018-04-05)The application of biochar to treat mercury (Hg) in the environment is being proposed on an increasing basis due to its widespread availability and cost effectiveness. However, the efficiency of Hg removal by biochars is ... -
Evaluation of Polymeric Nanocomposites for the Detection of Toxic Gas Analytes
(Taylor & Francis, 2016-09)Four different metal oxide nanoparticles, copper oxide (CuO), aluminum oxide (Al2O3), nickel oxide (NiO), and titanium dioxide (TiO2), were added to poly (2,5-dimethyl aniline) (P25DMA) during synthesis to create different ... -
Evaluation of regression-based 3-D shoulder rhythms
(Elsevier, 2016-08)The movements of the humerus, the clavicle, and the scapula are not completely independent. The coupled pattern of movement of these bones is called the shoulder rhythm. To date, multiple studies have focused on providing ... -
Evaluation Of Serogroup C And Acwy Meningococcal Vaccine Programs: Projected Impact On Disease Burden According To A Stochastic Two-Strain Dynamic Model
(Elsevier, 2015-01-01)Objective: Advisory committees in Canada and the United States have updated recommendations for quadrivalent meningococcal conjugate vaccines against serogroups A, C, W135, and Y. Our objective was to evaluate optimally ... -
Evaluation of the online Beverage Frequency Questionnaire (BFQ)
(Springer, 2018-08)Background The contribution of beverages to overall diet is of increasing interest to researchers and policymakers, particularly in terms of consumption of drinks high in added sugars; however, few tools to assess beverage ... -
Evaporation induced wrinkling of graphene oxide at the nanoparticle interface
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015-01-21)With the thickness of only a single atomic layer, graphene displays many interesting surface properties. A general observation is that wrinkles are formed on graphene oxide (GO) when it is dried in the presence of adsorbed ... -
Even pairs and prism corners in square-free Berge graphs
(Elsevier, 2018-07)Let G be a Berge graph such that no induced subgraph is a 4-cycle or a line-graph of a bipartite subdivision of K4. We show that every such graph G either is a complete graph or has an even pair. -
