A New Class of Resonant Metasurfaces Based on Highly Subwavelength Metamaterial-Lined Apertures and Metamaterial-Coated Discs
DownloadSpring 2019
This work presents analytical, numerical and experimental studies of a new class of resonant metasurfaces (MTSs), which may also be classified as miniaturized-element frequency selective surfaces (FSSs). The proposed MTS unit cells consist of circular aperture or disc resonators that are made...

This report describes the inventory system developed to provide a comprehensive data base for emission of materials to the atmosphere which are judged to be of environmental concern in the AOSERP study area. A detailed evaluation of man-related activities and natural processes within the area was...

Analysis and Design of A New Class of Miniaturized Circular Waveguides Containing Anisotropic Metamaterial Liners
DownloadFall 2016
This work presents the analysis and design of a new class of miniaturized circular waveguides containing anisotropic metamaterial liners, and reveals in detail intriguing and potentially useful propagation and radiation phenomena. An analytical construction of the liner as a homogeneous,...

Boxed-in: Comparing Algorithms for Box-flight Mass-Balance Greenhouse Gas Flux Measurements from Mineable and In Situ Oil Sands Developments
DownloadSpring 2022
To combat global warming, Canada has committed to reducing greenhouse gases (GHGs) 40-45% below 2005 emission levels by 2025. Monitoring emissions and deriving accurate inventories are essential to reaching these goals. GHGs can be measured at a small scale, often using ground measurements which...

Rankin, Robert , Degeling, Alex W., Watt, Clare E.
We introduce a new methodology that allows the construction of wave frequency distributions due to growing incoherent whistler-mode waves in the magnetosphere. The technique combines the equations of geometric optics (i.e., raytracing) with the equation of transfer of radiation in an anisotropic...

Continuum Modelling and Analysis of a Class of One and Two Dimensional Elastic Metamaterials with Local Rotation
DownloadFall 2022
The group of materials classified as "metamaterials" have accrued great interest in the scientific community as of late for their potential to revolutionize several multidisciplinary applications. Metamaterials are defined as synthetic/man-made materials which have been engineered to possess a...

Since the development of the fluctuation dissipation theorem for electromagnetics in 1956 by Landau, Lipschitz and Rytov, field correlations have gradually come to be understood as a consistent framework for treating all optical aspects of linear response. In turn, the theory of electromagnetic...

Spring 2024
This work aims to conduct a techno-economic feasibility analysis of adopting a hybrid approach to hydrogen generation. This includes grey hydrogen sourced from natural gas using Steam Methane Reforming (SMR) and green hydrogen from renewable energy. The key focus is on assessing the environmental...

Development and Applications of an Emissions Micro-Simulation Tool for Transportation Infrastructure Design
DownloadFall 2014
Transportation emissions constitute a significant portion of overall emissions inventories, and contribute to air quality health concerns. Reductions in transportation emissions can be achieved through efficient design of infrastructure, effective policy and regulation, and informed planning...
