In the refining industry, the cost of a power system interruption is dominated by an associated loss of production. Power distribution within a refinery includes a set of production units within a highly inter-dependent process, where the outage of a single unit affects the production of...

Reinforcement learning (RL) has received wide attention in various fields lately. Model-free RL brings data-driven solutions that learn the control strategy directly from interaction with process data without the need for a process model. This is especially beneficial in the case of nonlinear...

Reservoir and geomechanical coupled simulation of CO2 sequestration and enhanced coalbed methane recovery
DownloadFall 2009
Coalbeds are an extremely complicated porous medium with characteristics of heterogeneity, dual porosity and stress sensitivity. In the past decades great achievements have been made to the simulation models of pressure depletion coalbed methane (CBM) recovery process and CO2 sequestration and...

Robust Gaussian Process Regression and its Application in Data-driven Modeling and Optimization
DownloadFall 2015
Availability of large amounts of industrial process data is allowing researchers to explore new data-based modelling methods. In this thesis, Gaussian process (GP) regression, a relatively new Bayesian approach to non-parametric data based modelling is investigated in detail. One of the primary...

Langor, D. W., Cobb, T.P., Spence, J.R., Jacobs, J. M., Hammond, H.E.J.
Saproxylic insect assemblages inhabiting dead wood in Canadian forests are highly diverse and variable but quite poorly understood. Adequate assessment of these assemblages poses significant challenges with respect to sampling, taxonomy, and analysis. Their assessment is nonetheless critical to...

Fu, L., Marey, H.S., Hashisho, Z.
The rapid expansion of oil sands activities and massive energy requirements to extract and upgrade the bitumen have led to a need for more comprehensive understanding of their potential environmental impacts, particularly on air quality. There are many oil sands developments and natural sources...
