canada's position and participation in the early development of the international monetary fund, 1940-1943
(1985)this study focuses on canada's involvement in the informal discussions that ultimately led to the creation of the international monetary fund, these discussions, which involved three main participants, canada, the united ... -
evaporation of highly charged waterdrops in the atmosphere
(1975)the evaporation of charged waterdrops is accompanied by negligible loss of charge; consequently, as the surface area falls, the electrostatic pressure increases. when a critical value is reached, one or more highly charged ... -
parallel algorithms for the iterative solution of large sparse linear systems
(1982)in this thesis we are concerned with iterative parallel algorithms for solving finite difference equations arising from boundary value problems. we propose various new methods based on approximate inverses. the jacobi ... -
diffusion of impurities from ion implants in silicon
(1974)the use of shallow single and double impurity ion implants as diffusion sources was studied on bare (111) silicon wafers implanted at room temperature with 45 kev boron, phosphorus and arsenic. the samples were diffused ... -
microwave interferometer for measuring dielectric properties of low-loss solids
(1974)an x-band microwave bridge-interferometer is constructed for measuring the permittivity of solids. using simple theory, the system is first tested with several materials of known permittivity (e.g. ertalon, plexiglas ... -
abstract model for measure and category
(1975)this thesis is an attempt to establish an abstract model for lebesgue measure and baire category. in the introduction, we list several similarities between lebesgue measurable sets and sets having the property of ... -

(1993)a prospective research study attempted to identify persons who would subsequently receive an irregular discharge. the sample consisted of 150 patients who were consecutively admitted to the acute care units of lakehead ... -
aspects of comparative growth, morphology and anatomy of long and short shoots of betula papyrifera marsh
(1983)the primary objectives of this research were: 1) to compare long and short shoot growth utilizing growth analysis techniques. 2) to describe the general morphology of long and short shoots and to compare them using ... -

(1992)this research suggests that adult esl programs are quite successful. most 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 have positive attitudes towards english study and share positive feelings in class. they take an active part in classroom activities and ... -
some dielectric studies
(1969)two methods of approach are current in the literature for the interpretation of dielectric relaxation. one is that due to debye which assumes that the relaxation process has its origin in the retardation of molecular ... -
acoustoelectric effect in semiconductors
the possibility of electron temperature decreasing below the lattice temperature in the presence of an external electric field (electron cooling) has been pointed out by paranjape and ambrose (1964). in the present works ... -
extraversion and external locus of control in a youthful offender population
a correlational study between extraversion as measured by eysenck’s personality inventory and external locus of control as measured by rotter’s internal-external scale indicated no significant relationship in a sample of ... -
cathodoluminescence studies of feldspars and apatites from the coldwell alkaline complex
(1995)the coldwell alkaline complex is located on the north shore of lake superior, and consists of three centers representing three magmatic episodes. center i consists of gabbro, and layered and unlayered ferroaugite syenite. ... -
paleomagnetism, structure and magnetic fabrics in a traverse of the quetico subprovince between atikokan and kashabowie, nw ontario
(1993)the metasedimentary rocks along the traverse reveal low to high grade metamorphism from chlorite schist near atikokan, through biotite schist to migmatites in the west within the centre of the quetico belt. continuing ... -
the potential of microfossil use in paleodiet and paleoenvironmental analysis in northwestern ontario
(2008)historically wild rice was important economically and spiritually across much of central and eastern canada, but the antiquity of its use by native communities is unclear. unlike plant macrofossils, which have traditionally ...
