Numerical Modelling of Integral Abutment Bridges
(2021-11-02)Integral Abutment Bridges (IABs) are well known for their lower construction and maintenance costs by eliminating expansion joints and bearings. The flexible piles supporting the end-span abutments offer the possibility ... -
Numerical Modelling of Vehicle Loads on Buried Orthotropic Steel Shell Structures
(2010-11-26)An investigation was performed for live load forces applied to soil-steel structures under shallow backfill depths, specifically a long span deeply corrugated box culvert. The work was also relevant to other types of ... -
Numerical seakeeping predictions of shallow water effect on two ship interactions in waves.
(Dalhousie University, 2001) -
Numerical simulation and experimental modeling of matrix/fracture flow in porous media.

A Numerical Study of Dual Core Surface Plasmon Resonance-based Photonic Crystal Fiber Biosensors.
(2024-04-29)Photonic crystals (PCs) are periodic material structures in the optical domain. Felix Bloch developed a theory that describes how electron waves behave in the periodic structure of solids such as semiconductors. The same ... -
Numerical study of sea ice dynamics and wave-ice interactions in the marginal ice zone
(2021-04-30)The Marginal Ice Zone (MIZ) is a highly dynamic region between the open ocean and the inner ice pack. The ice over this region is subjected to waves, introducing new forces but also changing the ice from a cohesive material ... -
NUMERICAL STUDY OF THE EFFECTS OF FINS AND THERMAL FLUID VELOCITIES ON THE STORAGE CHARACTERISTICS OF A CYLINDRICAL LATENT HEAT ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM
(2010-09-15)This thesis work presents a numerical study of the effects of fins and thermal fluid velocities on the storage characteristics of a cylindrical latent heat energy storage system (LHESS). The work consists of two main ... -
NUMERICAL STUDY OF THE IN-PLANE BEHAVIOUR OF CONCRETE MASONRY INFILLS BOUNDED BY STEEL FRAMES
(2016-10-06)A finite element study was conducted to investigate the in-plane behaviour and strength of masonry infills bounded by steel frames with the focus on the effect of several influential parameters. In this study, two finite ... -
Numerical Study of Three-dimensional Circulation and Hydrography in Halifax Harbour Using a Nested-grid Ocean Circulation Model
(2010-12-21)Halifax Harbour is one of the world's largest natural harbours and has significant environmental and economic value. A good understanding of oceanographic processes is required for pollution control and sustainable ... -
Nurses are Key Members of the Abortion Care Team: Why aren’t Schools of Nursing Teaching Abortion Care?
(York University, 2019-12-10)Abortion is a common and safe procedure in Canada, with the Canadian Institute for Health Information reporting approximately 100,000 procedures per year. Yet access remains problematic. As abortion is unrestricted by ... -
The Nursing Competence Self-Efficacy Scale: An Instrument Development and Psychometric Assessment Study
(2013-06-26)The aim of this study was to develop and psychometrically assess an instrument to measure senior baccalaureate nursing student self-efficacy related to meeting entry level competencies required on acceptance to the nursing ... -

Nursing Students Respond to Opioid Crisis with Naloxone Education
(Canadian Science Publishing, 2018-11-19)This report describes how graduate students in nursing education have developed capacity among student nurses in response to the opioid crisis in Canada by using education on harm reduction practice and naloxone administration. -
NURTURING NATURE AND THE HUMAN PSYCHE: UNDERSTANDING THE PHYSIOLOGICAL, PSYCHOLOGICAL, AND SOCIAL BENEFITS OF INDOOR NATURE EXPOSURE
(2016-06-10)A large body of literature supports the physiological, psychological, and social benefits of engaging in nature-based environments. Indoor nature exposure (INE) offers an opportunity to adapt existing built environments ... -
Nutrient Recycling of Spent Biomass and Lipid-Extraction Wastewater in the Production of Thraustochytrids
(2016-04-06)One of the most important challenges for the emerging sector of microalgae biotechnology is reducing the production costs by improving the efficacy of resource use, while minimizing environmental repercussions of the ... -
NUTRIENT REGULATION OF AUTOPHAGY IN THE HEART
(2016-09-02)Impaired cardiac metabolism in the obese-diabetic heart leads to glucolipotoxicity and ensuing cardiomyopathy. Glucolipotoxicity causes cardiomyocyte injury by increasing energy insufficiency and by dysregulating proteolysis. ... -
Nutrient Removal by Palmaria palmata and Chondrus crispus in Bioremediation of Aquaculture Effluent
(2012-01-23)Palmaria palmata and Chondrus crispus were cultured in the lab at three levels of temperature and two of nitrate, representative of commercial Atlantic halibut farming conditions. Productivity and nitrogen removal by P. ...
