Assessing Floor Versus Pneumatic Malting: Comparing the Effects on Malt Quality and Fermentability
The increase in popularity of craft beer over the past decade has resulted in a subsequent increase in the craft malting industry. Approximately 25% of craft malthouses use a labour-intensive method called floor malting ... -
LIQUID BRIDGE TO STABLE FIBRE: POLYMER ENTANGLEMENT DRIVES FIBRE FORMATION FROM HIGHLY CONCENTRATED DEXTRAN SOLUTIONS
Liquid bridges have been studied for over 200 years, due to their countless natural and industrial occurrences. Majority of these studies focus on Newtonian fluids between coaxial discs, where the dimensions of the liquid ... -
Phosphorus Dynamics in Southwestern Nova Scotia Lakes
Eutrophication and algal blooms caused by anthropogenic sources of nutrients is an issue in freshwater systems all over Canada. Several lakes in southwestern Nova Scotia have experienced reoccurring algae blooms and possess ... -
Novel Algorithms for Trajectory Segmentation based on Interpolation-based Change Detection Strategies
An enormous number of mobility datasets for tracking animals, vehicles, vessels, individuals and moving objects are currently available, and this number continues to grow. Mobility data has diverse applications, including ... -
Representation of Parenting in Occupational Science and Therapy Literature: A Critical Interpretive Synthesis
Parenting was little reflected in the occupational science and occupational therapy literature up to the turn of the 21st century. The late 1990’s and early 2000’s saw a growth in the literature with publishing by a number ... -
Geometric Horizons in the Szekeres Spacetime
A new conjecture for geometric horizons has been introduced which may provide a potential alternative to using apparent horizons and related surfaces for analyzing the dynamics of black hole spacetimes. In particular, ... -
SYNAPTOPODIN-2, AN ACTIN-BINDING PROTEIN, IS A PROMYOGENIC FACTOR FOR MYOBLAST FUSION AND MYOFIBRILLOGENESIS IN MOUSE AND ZEBRAFISH
Myogenesis is a differentiation-dependent process involving migration and fusion of uninucleated myoblasts to form multinucleated myotubes, the building blocks of striated, contractile muscle fibers. Several actin-binding ... -
Studying Source Contributions to Ambient Fine Particulate Matter and Estimating Its Historical Concentrations
Long-term exposure to ambient fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is a major health concern. This thesis presents three projects that take advantage of chemical transport modeling, ground-based monitoring and satellite remote ... -
Experimental Investigation of Short and Slender Rectangular Concrete Columns Reinforced with GFRP Bars under Eccentric Axial Loads
(ASCE, 2020-12-01)In this paper, the experimental behavior of short and slender concrete columns reinforced with glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars under eccentric compression loading is presented. A total of 10 large-scale concrete ... -
Brain Correlates of Vulnerability to Severe Mental Illness
Severe mental illness (SMI) refers to major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. The early onset and prolonged course make SMI a leading cause of disability in the population. There is a growing need ... -
Water and Wind: The Fluvial and Eolian Forces Behind the Pennsylvanian-Permian Halgaito Formation, Utah
The study of dryland fluvial systems has yielded a broad and well established body of work. As rivers in semi-arid and arid environments cover nearly 50% of the present land surface, there are many modern examples to turn ... -
