Ambient Noise from Turbidity Currents in Howe Sound
(2017-08-31)Turbidity currents are gravity currents that derive their density difference from sediment suspended within the fluid. In the marine environment they are responsible for sediment transport on large scales (e.g. it is ... -
Ambivalent Ally: Culture, Cybernetics, and the Evolution of Canadian Grand Strategy
(2011-12-09)Canada consistently balances competing inclinations for proximity and distance with the United States. Yet the extant literature on Canadian foreign policy has rarely focused on this particular behaviour trait or readily ... -
Ambulance Offload Delay and the Offload Zone: An Empirical Analysis of the Effectiveness of an Offload Time Reduction Effort
(2023-12-15)When ambulances arrive at a crowded emergency department (ED), paramedics must wait with the patient until ED space opens, causing offload delay and reducing the number of ambulances available to the community. An Offload ... -
AMIDR: A Complete Pulse Method for Measuring Solid-State Diffusivity in Li-ion Cells
(2023-12-06)The Atlung Method for Intercalant Diffusion and Resistance (AMIDR) is a novel, high accuracy method for measuring solid state diffusivity and interface resistance related to the Atlung Method for Intercalant Diffusion ... -
Amidst the Olive Trees: A Dalmatian Grove for Mental Rehabilitation
(2024-04-14)Suicides are one of the leading causes of death from injuries in Croatia. The groups most at risk are those struggling with mental illnesses and those over 60 — due to loneliness and loss of familial and inter-personal ... -

Amphibious Islands: Decay, Ecology, and the Future of the Venetian Lagoon
(2023-04-11)Venice, Italy is a city of constant fluctuations, existing amphibiously between fixed states, of past and present, fact and fiction, restored and ruin. For centuries, Venice, its peoples, and its lagoon have formed a ... -
Analogues of the Binomial Coefficient Theorems of Gauss and Jacobi
(2014-03-31)Two of the more well known congruences for binomial coefficients modulo p, due to Gauss and Jacobi, are related to the representation of an odd prime (or an integer multiple of the odd prime) p as a sum of two squares (or ... -
ANALYSE DESCRIPTIVE DU TRAITEMENT DES IDIOMES CHINOIS DANS LA TRADUCTION DE TROIS ROMANS CHINOIS CONTEMPORAINS EN FRANÇAIS
(2016-08-23)Idioms are widely used in these texts. In this thesis, we carry out an analysis of the treatment of Chinese idioms in literary translation from Mandarin to French. In the first part, we analyse the "social signs" and study ... -

(2009-12-14)The different activities that characterize the planning, sponsoring and execution of terrorist acts, measures and strategies for countering terrorism, lead to new terminological constructions in English and French. However, ... -
ANALYSING MARINE ANIMALS CHARACTERISTICS USING CONVOLUTIONAL NEURAL NETWORKS
(2019-08-09)The thesis explores the efficacy of convolutional neural network(CNNs) to categorize lobster images for improving lobster grading and traceability. Traceability ensures that lobsters are traceable to a sustainable source. ... -
Analysis and Modelling of the Thrombolysis Process for Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients at Urban and Rural Hospitals
(2021-08-17)Background: Thrombolysis is the process of treating acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), where effectiveness critically relies on rapid treatment. Fast treatment with tPA has been ... -
Analysis Automation and Evaluation of Space Angle for the D3 Stress Estimation Method
(2021-08-04)In 2016, Dr. Lin and Zou proposed a back-analysis method to evaluate the complete 3D in-situ stress state underground. This method requires obtaining the diametrical displacement data from at least three different-oriented ... -
