My research project is focused on the plate tectonics of the East Asian blocks in the Carboniferous Period using paleomagnetic method. Paleomagnetic method is the main tool to provide numerical values for the Earth tectonic evolution. A rock capability to record and maintain an ambient magnetic field in the moment of rock formation provides a […]

Despite the fact that neural networks have been widely applied in practice, training such networks can suffer from slow convergence, poor local minima and some other difficulties such as catastrophic forgetting. Such shortcomings severely undermine the applicability and usefulness of neural networks. The objective of this project is to identify the reasons behind such difficulties […]

The operation of complex industrial plants is based on the measurement and control of critical process variables. In most process industry applications, the final control element is usually a control valve, which has been identified as often the limiting element in improving performance of the control loop. Wave Control System (WCS) is developing a new […]

Our objective is to create, evaluate, and sustain an evidence-based leadership intervention to foster employee wellbeing. Based on the leadership development and organizational change literatures, I am proposing to conduct two studies at a provincial-based financial institution. The first study will explore the beliefs and opportunities to model health behaviours in the workplace and serves […]

Previous studies in dairy cow nutritional management during the calving transition mainly focused on how to improve milk production after calving, yet gut function and health during this critical period is largely unknown. Glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2), a 33-amino acid peptide secreted by enteroendocrine L-cells of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), has been reported to increase small […]
