NON-EFFECTIVE ORBIFOLDS AND DOUBLE CATEGORIES
(2017-08-31)Satake introduced Orbifolds in terms of an underlying space with an atlas of charts consisting of an open subset of Euclidean space with an action of a finite group. The representation of orbifolds by topological groupoids ... -
Non-Euclidean Eye Problems in the Geometry Lesson of Finnegans Wake
(2015)I demonstrate the existence of a correlation between references to physicists and references to eye problems in the geometry lesson in Book II, Chapter 2 of James Joyce’s Finnegans Wake. Specifically, the sequence of ... -
Non-Fiction Utopia: Arvida,Cité Industrielle Made Real
(The Society for the Study of Architecture in Canada, 2011) -
Non-Linear Coupling of Scales of Ocean Variability and Implications for Downscaling
(2015)The objectives of this study are to develop better methods for dynamically downscaling ocean conditions, and to improve understanding of the physical processes controlling variations on regional scales. Motivated by the ... -
Non-linear genetic isolation by distance: implications for dispersal estimation in anadromous and marine fish populations
(2007)Indirect genetic approaches such as those based on the association between genetic and geographic distance (isolation by distance, IBD) may provide one of the best means of estimating dispersal in marine systems. We ... -

Non-Medical Prescription Opioid Use among High-School Adolescents in Atlantic Canada
(2016-08-08)Non-Medical Prescription Opioid (NMPO) use is one of the most prevalent forms of substance use among Canadian adolescents. Despite the evidence of NMPO use as a major public health concern, we have major gaps in our ... -
Non-Occurrence of Free-Living Paramoeba-Invadens in Water and Sediments of Halifax Harbour Nova Scotia Canada
(1989)Seawater and sediment samples from various sites in or near Halifax Harbour were cultured for Paramoeba as were tissues of the natural sea urchin host Stronglyocentrotus droebachiensis sampled from Halifax Harbour. An ... -
Non-Parametric Statistical Tests for Differences in Fatty Acid Composition of Greenland Sharks
(2013-12-13)Variations in predator diets is important in ecology to help us understand their top-down effects on the ecosystem. In predator diets, their fatty acid signatures reflect the proportions of prey consumed. Since fatty acid ... -
Non-uniform Language Detection in Technical Writing
(2016-04-21)Technical writing in professional environments, such as user manual authoring, requires uniform language. Non-uniform language detection is a novel task, which aims to guarantee the consistency for technical writing by ... -
Nonbreeding distributions and potential carryover effects in a sentinel north pacific seabird, the Cassin's auklet
(2018-04-30)Factors influencing animal fitness during the nonbreeding period are critically important but remain largely unknown for many species. Here, I employed tracking and physiological sampling to gain insight into nonbreeding ... -
Nonbreeding-Season Drivers of Population Dynamics in Seasonal Migrants: Conservation Parallels Across Taxa
(2009-12)For seasonal migrants, logistical constraints have often limited conservation efforts to improving survival and reproduction during the breeding season only. Yet, mounting empirical evidence suggests that events occurring ... -
Noninvasive imaging of epicardial potentials: Regional constraints and clinical applications.
(Dalhousie University, 1999) -
NONLINEAR ADAPTIVE ROBUST CONTROL FOR BILATERAL TELEOPERATED ROBOTIC MANIPULATORS WITH ARBITRARY TIME DELAYS
(2017-04-25)Bilateral teleoperation systems have been extensively developed over decades. The communication delay can cause instability and is one of the most challenging control design problems. Additionally, nonlinearity, parameter ... -
Nonlinear Identities for Bernoulli and Euler Polynomials
(2018)It is shown that a certain nonlinear expression for Bernoulli polynomials, related to higher-order convolutions, can be evaluated as a product of simple linear polynomials with integer coefficients. The proof involves ... -
Nonlinear mixed effects models for meta-analysis.

NONLINEAR PLASMONICS WITH APPLICATIONS TO SENSING
(2017-09-29)Recent progress in laser science has led to the development of ultrashort pulses, which have a broad spectral bandwidth and high peak intensities. When these pulses interact with nonlinear plasmonic materials, the ... -
Nonlinear Signal Processing Techniques for UWB Impulse Radios
(2017-09-05)Impulse Radio (IR) Ultra-wideband (UWB) communication is an attractive potential technology for low-power, low-complexity, and high-speed communications in short range links. One of the main challenges it faces is the ...
