Two-Dimension Oligopolistic Product Differentiation and A Multilevel Model of Canadian Prescription Drug Price Dynamics
(2011-03-01)Prescription drugs play an increasingly significant role in the Canadian healthcare system. Drug spending accounts for a considerable share of total healthcare expenditure and continues to be one of the fastest growing ... -
Two-Eyed Seeing and Architecture: Restoring Reciprocal Relationships through Design
(2022-08-10)As a Western society we have lost our sense of the rhythms of the natural world and how we fit into these regenerative cycles, which has contributed to the increasing destruction of our planet. This thesis advocates for ... -
The Two-Photon Excitation Fluorescence (TPEF) Enhancement of Dipolar Organic Chromophores in Y Zeolites
(2016-04-08)Two-Photon Absorption (TPA) is a non-linear optical (NLO) process that involves simultaneous absorption of two photons. Efficiency of two photon absorption by organic compounds is influenced by many different factors, ... -
Type Nouveau: A Typological Approach to Modern Suburbia
(2016-04-08)Developed in the early part of the 20th century, prevalent in North America in the 1950s - 80s, the suburb as we know it is no longer relevant — particularly within the mid-urban condition. Rising housing costs, lack of ... -
UAV ANALYSIS OF RIVER HABITAT FOR ATLANTIC SALMON CONSERVATION
(2020-12-17)Species distribution models (SDM) use presence data and environmental layers to predict spatial distribution of species. SDM could be used to denote important habitat for river restoration of endangered species such as ... -
UBIQUITOUS COORDINATED AND MULTIPLE VIEWS
(2013-08-16)This thesis explores the concept of Ubiquitous Coordinated and Multiple Views (UCMV), or the linking of related static and/or digital views that are distributed in a work environment, we introduce a prototype system that ... -
UHYPERLINK: AN ORGANIZED METHOD TO COLLECT, MANAGE AND STORE OBJECT HYPERLINKS USING RFID
(2012-07-12)Advancements in ubiquitous computing are allowing users to search and add information to the web for surrounding objects from any location at any time. With more and more information being added to the web, it is becoming ... -
Ultra Low-voltage Multiple-loop Feedback Switched-capacitor Filters
(2014-10-20)This work presents an SC filter design technique based on a CMOS inverter. The proposed technique is demonstrated by the design of the sixth-order Follow the Leader Feedback (FLF) Chebyshev low-pass filter. This technique ... -
Ultra-Low-Power Super Regenerative Receivers for Wireless Communication
(2020-08-07)In this Thesis, both low frequency and high frequency ultra-low-power super-regenerative receiver with detailed circuits and system design for wireless communication networks has been proposed in this thesis. The SRR ... -
Ultrafast Quantum Control of Exciton Dynamics in Semiconductor Quantum Dots
(2013-10-10)Controlling the quantum states of charge (excitons) or spin-polarized carriers in semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) has been the focus of a considerable research effort in recent years due to the strong promise of using ... -
Ultralow Thermal Conductivity and Novel Thermoelectric Materials
(2018-09-28)More than half of the energy produced worldwide is lost as heat and even recovering a fraction of that would be beneficial for global climate change. Thermoelectric materials can recover waste heat and convert it to ... -
Ultraproducts and continuous families of models.
(Dalhousie University, 1995) -
ULTRASHORT PULSE SHAPING IN LINEAR RESONANT ABSORBERS
(2011-12-14)Pulse shaping is the technique which controls the ultra-short pulse shape, and it became of great technological interest because of its potential applications in laser pulse compression, digital communications, microscopy ... -
Ultrasonic imaging of pore fluid pressure and scaling to field measurement.
(Dalhousie University, 2005) -
ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT APPLICATIONS FOR THE DEGRADATION OF NATURAL ORGANIC MATTER IN WATER MATRICES
(2021-04-09)Ultraviolet light, in combination with chemical oxidants has been hypothesized as a universal treatment technology for the degradation of harmful organic compounds in water matrices. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) ... -
UML for Inclusion of Privacy in Software Modeling

UN NOUVEAU PARI DES LUMIÈRES: LE LIEU COMMUN DE LA CONVERSION RELIGIEUSE DU MORIBOND DANS LE DISCOURS FICTIONNEL AU DIX-HUITIÈME SIÈCLE
(2013-09-04)This essay is founded on two seemingly irreconciliable propositions. On one hand, the Enlightment; the triumph of Reason and man’s increasingly wide access to the spirit of free-thinkin. And on the other hand, a recurring ... -
Uncanny or Marvelous?: The Fantastic and Somatoform Disorders in Wuthering Heights and Villette
(2011-09-06)Drawing on historicized illness studies by scholars such as Sally Shuttleworth, Athena Vrettos, Elaine Showalter and others, I identify the ways in which Victorian illnesses (specifically hysteria) correlate with the ... -
