The Role of Sulfur Species in Establishing the Corrosion Reactions in Refinery Metallurgies
DownloadSpring 2016
This thesis is focused on the studying the role that model sulfur-containing molecules have in corrosion reactions on relevant metallurgies. This was done by using a design of experiments where a number of sulfur-based compounds were reacted with various metallurgies. The 8 model sulfur compounds...

Ultrasonic Characterization of Bitumen with Pressure and Temperature: Implications for seismic monitoring of the Grosmont Formation
DownloadFall 2018
The vastly untapped carbonate Grosmont Formation in north-eastern Alberta may hold in excess of a couple of hundred billion barrels initial volume of bitumen in place. Bitumen, an ultra-heavy hydrocarbon oil, possesses a density comparable to water, but a dynamic shear viscosity million times...

Traditionally in pipeline steels and welds, ultrasonic testing (UT) has been used for crack and/or flaw detection. The work presented in this Thesis explores the use of this technique to characterize the microstructure of pipe steels. Ultrasonic velocity calculations, for shear and longitudinal...

ML80 and Grade 483 are heat treatable steels, produced by a quench and temper process, that are used in the oil and gas industry. The development of the microstructure during heat treatment is important to ensure that the correct properties are achieved for these steels. However, a real-time...

Ductile steel plate shear walls are an established lateral load resisting system. Past research indicates that cold-rolled infill panels less than 1 mm in thickness present one solution to an overstrength problem arising from selecting an infill panel thickness based on ease of welding and...
