Insurance And Risk Related Equine Study In Eastern Halifax Regional Halifax Municipality
(2012-08-24)On June 13, 2008 a forest fire affected Eastern Halifax Regional Municipality leading to the evacuation of five hundred homes and eighteen horse facilities. At the time of the June 2008 forest fire not all horses in Nova ... -
THE INTEGER-VALUED POLYNOMIALS ON LUCAS NUMBERS
(2017-08-28)An integer-valued polynomial on a subset, S, of the set of integers, Z, is a polynomial f(x) 2 Q[x] such that f(S) Z. The collection, Int(S;Z), of such integer-valued polynomials forms a ring with many interesting ... -
Integral Architecture: Social Infrastructure for a Gentrifying Neighbourhood
(2017-04-11)We are in a transition period in the growth of American cities. The urban is re-centralizing, rejuvenating old downtowns, and gentrifying previously neglected inner city neighbourhoods. In Canada, gentrification has been ... -
AN INTEGRATED APPROACH FOR AUTHENTICATION AND ACCESS CONTROL WITH SMARTPHONES
(2016-12-05)With the enhancement in technology, people are relying more on mobile devices for accessing social media sites, online shopping or financial transactions. These devices are smart but the methods of authentication are ... -
An Integrated Biorefinery for Anaerobic Digestion of Thin Stillage and Microalgae Cultivation for Nutrient Recycling, Bioenergy and Bioproduct Production
(2019-08-29)Corn grain is one of the main sources for bioethanol production. However, corn bioethanol plants consume a significant amount of energy and water, compete with the food supply chain and may lead to eutrophication as the ... -
Integrated Coagulation-Adsorption Dissolved Air Flotation Treatment for Oily Wastewater
(2015)Produced water is the largest wastewater stream generated by the petroleum industry, and contains a range of petroleum hydrocarbons in free, dispersed and dissolved form. In the offshore environment, produced water management ... -
Integrated disinfection for mitigating microbial regrowth in drinking water distribution systems.
(Dalhousie University, 2006) -
An integrated epidemiological supply chain management approach for the COVID-19 vaccine distribution and allocation problem
(2023-08-28)This thesis proposes an integrated model for vaccine distribution and allocation that combines an SEIR compartmental model with a transhipment model. Given the NP-hardness of the problem, eight solution methods are explored ... -
Integrated Lithostratigraphic, Formation and Structural Evaluation of the Migrant Structure, Sable Subbasin, Offshore Nova Scotia.
(2021-04-12)Well data and 3D seismic are integrated to investigate the impact of sand-on-sand juxtaposition across a crestal fault in the Migrant Structure previously missed in 2D seismic. Pressure and petrophysical analysis of well ... -
An Integrated Modeling Approach for Evaluation of Phosphorus Loading in Rural Nova Scotia Watersheds
(2014-01-27)Residential on-site wastewater systems (OWS) are a potential source of phosphorus (P) which can negatively impact surface water quality in rural watersheds. The magnitude of P loading from OWS is typically not monitored, ... -
An Integrated Neoclassical Realist and Constructivist Approach to the Study of Canadian Foreign Policy: Canada's Response to the 2011 Intervention in Libya
(2014-08-25)The following project is an examination of Canadian foreign and defence policy. Specifically, it is argued that growing trends in Canadian foreign policy necessitate a theoretical framework that is able to accurately examine ... -
An Integrated Optimization Tool in Applications of Mining using A Discrete Rate Stochastic Model
(2011-12-16)The simulation as a stand alone optimization tool of a complex system such as a vertical integrated mining operation, significantly over simplifies the actual picture of the system processes involved resulting in an ... -
Integrated water resources planning and management at the level of an industrial park.

Integrating Distributed Generation in Power Distribution Networks using Fuzzy Logic
(2014-08-22)In this research simulations have been carried out on a 10 kV and IEEE 13 node test distribution feeder to show the impact of adding distributed generations (DG) in the medium voltage distribution network. Equations of ... -
Integrating Frailty and Physical Resilience to Improve Risk Estimation in Aging Populations
(2024-04-11)Background: Physical resilience, broadly defined as the ability to resist or recover from health stressors, is a relatively new concept in the field of aging, yet, anticipated as a potentially game-changing idea. In ... -
Integrating functional and taxonomic data types for microbiome data analysis
(2020-12-14)Communities of microbes in natural environments, referred to as microbiomes, are commonly profiled with DNA sequencing approaches. Sequencing results are typically partitioned so that the relative abundances of microbes ...
