Modeling soil-structure interaction problems involving granular material and large deformation is a challenging task particularly for geotechnical engineering. Using standard finite element methods has been found to be inefficient to model soil-structure interaction at the soil particle scale. Soil-structure interactions…

The purpose of this multiple case study was to describe and understand Chinese graduate students’ emotional experiences, and to explore the possible relationships between their emotional experiences and their epistemic change in their first semester in a Canadian research-intensive university.…

Communication complexity studies how many bits a certain number of parties need to communicate with each other in order to compute a function whose input is distributed among those parties. Although it is a natural area of investigation based on…

The policy of inclusive education has changed the makeup of the Canadian classroom. Today's elementary school teacher is faced with the challenge of meeting the myriad classroom needs of their students, many of whom demonstrate disruptive classroom behaviours due to…
