Assessing The Benefits Of Cost-Effective Monitoring Technology On Unstable Slopes Sensitive To Weather
DownloadFall 2021
Across Canada, the presence of ground hazards, such as rock falls, rock slides, or earth slides, next to transportation corridors, is a potential risk to transport system users, the infrastructure, and traffic operations. Monitoring instrumentation systems tracking unstable slopes are a key...

EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF THE SETTLING VELOCITY OF SPHERICAL PARTICLES IN VISCOELASTIC FLUIDS
DownloadFall 2017
Knowledge of settling behavior of particles in various types of fluids is indispensable to design and optimize numerous industrial operations such as cuttings transport in oil and gas well drilling, proppant transport in hydraulic fracturing operations, and so on. Most of the models developed so...

Optical Diagnostics of the Motion of Spherical, Cylindrical and Irregularly Shaped Particles within variable Flow Media
DownloadSpring 2023
The shape of non-spherical or irregularly shaped particles have been a challenging factor to include in mathematical models that describe particle motion in a fluid. In many studies in the literature, irregularly shaped particles have been modelled essentially as spheres. This thesis is an...

Wind Tunnel Investigation of the Effect of Duct and Cross-flow on Small Propellers for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
DownloadFall 2018
The expanding field of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) has introduced a variety of flight operating conditions and thus, performance requirements. As a method to improve performance in the propulsion systems of UAVs, two topics of interest are emphasized in this thesis: the potential improvements...
