Analysis and Comparison of Solid Waste Management Systems and Diversion Practicies in Alberta and British Columbia
(Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research, University of Regina, 2015-12)
In this study, the solid waste management systems in Alberta and British Columbia are
analyzed and compared. Geographically, Alberta and British Columbia are located side
by side in Western Canada. These two provinces ...
Analysis of Longitudinal Data With Missing Responses: A Study of Pain Control Cost
(Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research, University of Regina, 2015-06)
Recent years have seen a major increase of interest in pain control cost studies. Due to
rising costs of medical treatment, researchers study factors contributing to cost and appropriate
ways to control or reduce the ...
The Effect of Knee Osteoarthritis on the Variability and Fractal Dynamics of Human Gait
(Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research, University of Regina, 2015-03)
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disease seen in the older adult
population, and has a greater influence on gait compared to the effects of aging alone.
Spatiotemporal parameters can be used to quantify ...
Numerical Simulation of pressure Transient Analysis in Tight Formation and Field Data Categorization and Typical Well Production Data Analysis
(Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research, University of Regina, 2015-07)
Low to ultra-low permeability tight oil reservoirs have recently become a significant source of hydrocarbon supply in North America. Production and pressure transient analysis of tight oil reservoirs is one of the most ...
The Health Belief Model and Women’s Adherence to a Cardiac Rehabilitation Program
(Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research, University of Regina, 2015-05)
The purpose of this study was to identify health beliefs that affect adherence rates
to prescribed exercise programming for women based on medically diagnosed cardiacrelated
conditions. Research indicates that despite ...
Trajectory Planning for Hyper-Redundant Manipulators in Constrained Workspaces
(Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research, University of Regina, 2015-03)
Trajectory planning for robotic manipulators is defined as the process of breaking
down an arbitrary movement task into discrete motions while satisfying movement
constraints and optimizing a cost function. Rapid advances ...
Reflected Group Delay method with Space Mapping Techniques for Coupled-Resonator Filter Design
(Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research, University of Regina, 2015-04)
The RF (radio frequency) and microwave filter is widely used in various applications in the fields of radio broadcasting, radar, telecommunication and satellite technologies. The design methods of RF and microwave filters ...
Development of Scaling Crieteria for Waterflooding and Immiscible CO2 Flooding in Unconventional Reservoirs
(Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research, University of Regina, 2015-02)
As conventional oil reserves are depleting, the rising energy demand as well as
advancements in well drilling and stimulation technologies have attracted increasingly
interests in exploiting the unconventional oil resources ...
Design Method for Layered Bed Adsorber for Separation of CO2 and N2 from Natural Gas Using ZEOLITE13X, Carbon Molecular Sieve and Activated Carbon
(Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research, University of Regina, 2015-02)
Natural gas (NG) is a low-carbon fossil fuel that carries impurities such as carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen (N2). These two impurities reduce the heating value of NG. Also, CO2 causes corrosion in the pipeline and N2 ...
A Post-Fabrication Tuning Method for a Varactor-Tuned Microstrip Filter using the Space Mapping Technique
(Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research, University of Regina, 2015-04)
The RF (radio frequency) and microwave filter is of great importance in the most of the microwave applications which are widely used in broadcasting radios, televisions, radar techniques, telecommunications and satellite ...
