CHARACTERIZATION OF NANOCARBON-REINFORCED AND NEAT ADHESIVES IN BONDED SINGLE LAP JOINTS UNDER STATIC AND IMPACT LOADINGS
(2013-08-27)
The effects of high loading rates (HLR), and nano reinforcement on the mechanical response of adhesively-bonded SLJs with composite adherends, subjected to different loading (strain) rates are systematically investigated. ...
Computational Design: Developing and Applying Computational Tools for Architectural Design
(2014-04-04)
This thesis explores the intersection between computation and architectural design. The thesis first develops several computational design tools, specifically focussing on three problem domains: (1) speedy generation and ...
Investigating the role of mutanthuntingtin in altered transcription in Huntington's disease.
(Dalhousie University, 2007)
Dynamical systems and spherically symmetric cosmological models.

Late Cenozoic upper-crustal cooling history of the Shuswap Metamorphic Complex, southern Canadian Cordillera, British Columbia: new insights from low-temperature multi-thermochronometry and inverse thermal modeling
(2015-04-30)
The Shuswap Metamorphic Complex (SMC), located in the southern Canadian Cordillera, transitioned from a contractional orogen in the Early Jurassic to Late Cretaceous to an extensional tectonic province in the Eocene. ...
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 ...
Intelligent Deman Side Deployment in Renewable Distributed Generation Grids
(2013-08-06)
Demand Side Management (DSM) and real-time pricing (RTP) are methods by which the consumer can participate in the electricity market and reduce electricity expenditures. By having more active consumers in the electricity ...
Livable City: Filling in the Gaps of Instant Urbanism
(2010-12-17)
A living city must exist at every scale - from the urban to the pedestrian; the development of the 21st century Instant City, however, does not allow for this multiplicity of scales. These cities emerge instead in a type ...
Blind Sight
(2010-12-20)
This thesis focuses on the exploration of the sense of smell, touch, taste, and hearing as main design guidelines. In doing so, an architecture was developed which moves beyond the visual reliance of spatial understanding. ...
Studies of naturally occurring radioactive materials by direct gamma-ray spectrometry and after chemical separation.
(Dalhousie University, 2007)
