• Structure of the continental Moho and Lithosphere-Asthenosphere Boundary: Insights from receiver-function analysis and numerical modelling 

  Maiti, Tannistha (Science, University of Calgary, 2018-10-19)

  The Moho and lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary (LAB) are fundamental discontinuities in the Earth’s outermost layers. The structure of these features can be discerned using seismic methods, providing important insights ...

• Data-Driven Analytics for Oil and Gas Reservoir Production Forecasting 

  Amirian, Ehsan (Schulich School of Engineering, University of Calgary, 2018-10)

  Detailed uncertainty analysis on numerical flow simulation models preserving a robust and reliable model of oil and gas reservoir is often deterministic, cumbersome and expensive (manpower and time consuming). Presence of ...

• Examining the Relationship Between Work Stress and Employee Outcomes: A Longitudinal Moderated-Mediation Model 

  Mayers, David Adam (Arts, University of Calgary, 2018-10-18)

  The experience of work stress is widespread and often associated with deleterious employee outcomes. However, researchers have found that some types of work stress are associated with beneficial employee outcomes. Hindrance ...

• Anxiety, Authority and Accountability: The Experience of Being a Minister Responsible for Education 

  Rouble, Patrick James (Werklund School of Education, University of Calgary, 2018-10-17)

  Literature related to education leadership, governance, and political science provide a legal and process understanding of the position of minister responsible for education, but lack detail related to how the phenomenon ...

• Robust Design for Feature Usage-Driven Product Improvement 

  Hemmati, Ashkan (Science, University of Calgary, 2018-10-17)

  Software product improvement is a multi-layered area of study in software engineering, consisting of various processes and attributes. Innovations in technology, changes in customer and market requirements, as well as ...

• Essays on Integration Challenges and Impacts of FSA Transfers in MNEs 

  Zeng, Rong (Haskayne School of Business, University of Calgary, 2018-10-12)

  This dissertation includes four essays on how multinational enterprises (MNEs) develop competitive advantage by tackling control and coordination challenges and transfer of firm-specific advantages (FSAs). Essay 1 uses ...

• Depth imaging with reflection statics derived from model-based moveout 

  Ellison, Dennis Kent (Science, University of Calgary, 2018-10-15)

  In land reflection seismic data analysis, reflection static corrections are analytical solutions for resolving timing differences between measured and theoretical arrival times of seismic waves. These static corrections ...

• Computing A-Homotopy Groups of Graphs Using Coverings and Lifting Properties 

  Hardeman, Rachel (Science, University of Calgary, 2018-09-21)

  In classical homotopy theory, two spaces are homotopy equivalent if one space can be continuously deformed into the other. This theory, however, does not respect the discrete nature of graphs. For this reason, a discrete ...

• Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Development in Zebrafish 

  Whitesell, Thomas Richard (Cumming School of Medicine, University of Calgary, 2018-09-20)

  During the formation of blood vessels, the endothelium becomes progressively covered by vascular smooth muscle cells and pericytes, known collectively as vascular mural cells. The vascular mural cells of the head arise ...

• Reservoir Simulation and Optimization of Hydraulic Fracturing: Case Study in Jilin Tight Oil Field 

  Yu, Yanlong (Schulich School of Engineering, University of Calgary, 2018-10-12)

  Combing horizontal wells with hydraulic fracturing is a powerful technology used to stimulate unconventional tight reservoirs and has increased production performance of tight oil reservoirs. The analysis of optimal hydraulic ...
