The Experiences Of Young Adult Cancer Survivors Resuming An Occupation
(2011-01-07)Young adulthood is generally a time when an individual completes a post-secondary education, decides on a career, and enters the workforce. When individuals are diagnosed with cancer during this stage in life, they often ... -
Experiential Learning for Health Development: A case Study of the Leadership of the Highlands Hope Umbrella
(2013-08-21)This study focuses on the relationship between leadership and change in grassroots organizations and how they can improve health conditions within their community. Taking an experiential learning approach to health ... -
Experimental and analytical studies of smart composite reinforcements and structures.
(Dalhousie University, 2002) -
Experimental and molecular mechanics studies of the conformations of compounds containing oxygen and sulfur.
(Dalhousie University, 1997) -
Experimental and Numerical Investigations of Single Abrasive-Grain Cutting
(2011-04-08)The cutting action of a single abrasive grain was investigated using a combination of high-speed scratch tests and finite element models. The high-speed scratch tests were unique in that the cutting conditions of a grinding ... -
Experimental and numerical studies of a novel technique for abatement of toxic metals from aqueous streams.
(Dalhousie University, 2005) -
EXPERIMENTAL AND NUMERICAL STUDY OF THE IN-PLANE AND OUT-OF-PLANE BEHAVIOUR OF UNREINFORCED MASONRY INFILLS BOUNDED BY RC FRAMES
(2020-08-07)A literature review revealed that there is limited technical information available on the subject of masonry infilled frames, in particular, the interaction between the infill and its bounding frame and how this interaction ... -
Experimental and Theoretical Investigation of Glass Ceramics: The Transparent Ferroelectric Nanocomposite LaBGeO5
(2019-04-02)The LaBGeO5 glass-ceramic composite is a transparent ferroelectric nanocomposite (TFN) material that has come under attention for its ferroelectric properties. LaBGeO5 crystals-in-glass can be formed through controlled ... -
Experimental Cannabinoid Receptor 2 Activation in Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Interstitial Cystitis in Mice
(2020-12-18)Interstitial cystitis (IC) is a chronic pain disorder of the urinary bladder that causes symptoms of persistent pelvic pain, nocturia, and dysuria with no curative treatment. Medical management is therefore directed toward ... -
Experimental Evaluation of the Bond Dependent Coefficient and Parameters which Influence Crack Width in GFRP Reinforced Concrete
(2013-04-04)Reinforcement of concrete flexural components has been traditionally provided by steel rebar; however, durability concerns and life maintenance costs of this product have powered the emergence of fibre reinforced polymers ... -
Experimental Investigation for the Particle and Sample Size Effect on the Shear Strength Parameters of Tire Derived Aggregate (TDA)
(2021-01-07)TDA has been successfully used in different civil engineering projects as a fill material in its pure state or mixed with soils in TDA-soil mixtures. Despite the superior geotechnical properties and successful applications ... -
An experimental investigation into the effects of mindful attention and trait mindfulness on adolescent pain
(2014-07-25)Mindfulness refers to paying attention to present moment experience nonjudgmentally. It has been hypothesized that attending mindfully to painful sensations may mitigate the experience of pain. The tendency to be mindful ... -
EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF A PILOT-SCALE MEMBRANE FILTRATION SYSTEM FOR OILY WASTEWATER TREATMENT
(2022-11-25)In this study, a pilot-scale submerged membrane filtration system using hollow fiber (HF) polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membranes was experimentally investigated to treat synthetic oily seawater containing heavy crude oil ... -
Experimental investigation of neuroprotective drugs in models of retinal cell death.
(Dalhousie University, 2004) -
Experimental Investigation of the In-Plane Behaviour of Concrete Masonry Infills Bounded by Reinforced Masonry Frames
(2019-12-12)This study was carried out to investigate the in-plane behaviour of all-masonry infilled frames, i.e., concrete masonry infills bounded by reinforced masonry frames. To this end, six specimens including one masonry bare ... -
EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION ON THE OUT-OF-PLANE BEHAVIOUR OF CONCRETE MASONRY INFILLED RC FRAMES
(2017-04-28)This thesis presents results of an experimental study focusing on the out-of-plane behaviour and strength of concrete masonry infills bounded by reinforced concrete frames. A total of four specimens was tested with different ... -
EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION ON THE OUT-OF-PLANE BEHAVIOUR OF CONCRETE MASONRY INFILLED FRAMES
(2017-11-01)This thesis presents an integral part of an on-going research on out-of-plane behaviour of masonry infills, this study was motivated to augment the existing experimental database on out-of-plane behaviour and strength of ... -
