Oppression: Exploring Conceptual Potential in Occupational Science and Occupational Therapy
(2020-04-29)Oppression-related concepts can deepen understandings about the ways in which occupational potential (Wicks, 2001) can become narrowed. Using these concepts incorporates philosophy and theory developed by Bourdieu, Collins, ... -
“Optāsne Frixa cum eā?”; Creating a Model of the Big Mac in Ancient Rome
(Dalhousie University Department of History, 2013) -
OPTIC NERVE INTERGRITY FOLLOWING RETINAL INACTIVATION FOR THE TREATMENT OF POST-CRITICAL PERIOD AMBLYOPIA
(2020-07-16)In animal models, monocular deprivation (MD) by lid closure mimics the effects of unilateral amblyopia in humans. In cats, inactivation of the fellow (non-deprived) eye, with intraocular administration of tetrodotoxin has ... -
The optical activation of racemic bromcamphor carboxylic acid by means of catalysts: The specificity of catalysts
(McAlpine Publishing Co., Ltd., 1912) -
Optical and Near-Infrared Integral Field Spectroscopy of the SCUBA Galaxy N2-850.4
(2005-05-11)We present optical and near-infrared integral field spectroscopy of the SCUBA galaxy SMM J163650.43+405734.5 (ELAIS N2 850.4) at z=2.385. We combine Ly-alpha and H-alpha emission line maps and velocity structure with high ... -
Optical coherence gratings and lattices and their propagation properties
(2015-04-23)Partially coherent sources have been widely used in speckle-free imaging, distortion-less information transfer and optical communications in free space. In this thesis, we introduce a novel class of partially coherent ... -
OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY FOR CLINICAL OTOLOGY
(2021-05-05)The potential utility of OCT for diagnostics in otology has been acknowledged for nearly two decades, but studies have focused largely on application to understanding basic physiology where animals and cadavers can be used, ... -
Optical Control of Exciton Qubits in Semiconductor Quantum Dots Using Pulse Shaping Techniques
(2015)Semiconductor quantum dots have been featured in a number of proposals for quantum computing because of the advantages afforded by confinement on the nanoscale, such as well separated, discrete energy levels and ease of ... -
Optical detection and assessment of algal blooms
(1997-07)Concerns about harmful algal blooms (HABs) have grown in recent years. There is a pressing need for robust, quantitative, and cost-effective methods to detect and characterize algal blooms. Critical applications of these ... -

Optical Rogue Waves and Nonlinear Effects in Hollow-Core Photonic Crystal Fibers
(2018-05-01)In this dissertation, we theoretically study nonlinear optical effects inside hollow core photonic crystal fibers (HCPCFs). In particular, we explore the formation of optical rogue waves near resonance in stimulated Raman ... -
Optical Surface Plasmons in Semiconductors
(2012-09-04)A theoretical treatment is presented of a plasmonic interaction at an interface between a semiconductor and a dielectric, as opposed to the more traditional configuration whereby a metal/dielectric interface is investigated. ... -
Optically engineered ultrafast pulses for controlled rotations of exciton qubits in semiconductor quantum dots
(2012-07)No abstract available. -
Optically faint counterparts to the ISO-FIRBACK 170 micron population: the discovery of cold, luminous galaxies at high redshift
(2002-07)We present Keck spectroscopy and UKIRT near-IR imaging observations of two 170micron-selected sources from the ISO-FIRBACK survey which have faint counterparts in the optical, and r-K~5. Both sources were expected to lie ... -
Optics
(2009-07-24)In this scientific journal, James Dinwiddie focuses on optics. He begins with a series of queries related to optics and expands the discussion to the compositon and humours of the eye as well as various experiments in ... -
Optics, No. 1-3
(2009-07-22)These lecture notes written by James Dinwiddie in 1793 focus on optics. Dinwiddie discusses the properties of various instruments including microscopes, telescopes, and magic lanterns as well as convex and concave lenses. ... -
OPTIMAL ANNEALING PATHS FOR ADIABATIC QUANTUM COMPUTATION
(2011-12-16)Shor’s algorithm shows that circuit-model quantum computers can factorize integers in polynomial time – exponentially more efficiently than classical computers. There is currently no analogous algorithm for Adiabatic Quantum ... -
Optimal control of piecewise deterministic Markov processes.
(Dalhousie University, 1990) -
OPTIMAL DISTRIBUTED GENERATION SIZING AND PLACEMENT VIA SINGLE- AND MULTI-OBJECTIVE OPTIMIZATION APPROACHES
(2013-07-24)Numerous advantages attained by integrating Distributed Generation (DG) in distribution systems. These advantages include decreasing power losses and improving voltage profiles. Such benefits can be achieved and enhanced ... -
Optimal dynamic monitoring network design for reliable tracking of contaminant plumes in an aquifer system.
