Fall 2018
Canada has the third largest oil reserves in the world where 97% of these reserves are located in the oil sands, Alberta province. The product resulted from the extraction of oil sands reserves is called bitumen which can be diluted and shipped to the market or it can be proceeded and upgraded...

Luckert, Martin K., Armstrong, Glen W., Adamowicz, Wiktor L., Anderson, Jay A.
Previous studies suggest that management intensity zoning systems, such as the triad approach, could allow Canada’s forest industry to maintain or increase timber harvest levels while simultaneously reducing its environmental impact. In most such studies, the zones are exogenously specified. In...

Optimization and Energy Management of Battery Energy Storage Systems in Residential and Industrial Applications
DownloadFall 2019
Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) provides a fast and high power capability, making them an ideal solution for residential and industrial application. However, given today’s high investment costs of BESS, a well-matched design and adequate sizing of the storage systems are prerequisites to...

The downturn of the world economy and the increasingly severe competition among mining giants puts forward higher requirements for open-pit mining, which is the dominant method for humans to obtain minerals from the earth. Among these so-called higher requirements, reducing mining costs as much...

Rayner, David Christopher Ferguson
Heuristic search is a central problem in artificial intelligence. Among its defining properties is the use of a heuristic, a scalar function mapping pairs of states to an estimate of the actual distance between them. Accurate heuristics are generally correlated with faster query resolution and...

Optimization of a Non-axial Magnet Design for a Hybrid Radiation Treatment and MR Imaging System
DownloadSpring 2017
A prototype rotating hybrid magnetic resonance (MR) imaging system and linac has been developed to allow for simultaneous imaging and radiation delivery parallel to B_0. However, the design of a compact magnet capable of rotation in a small vault with sufficient patient access and a typical...

Microalgae are a promising source of biofuels and other valuable chemicals. The low cell density and slow growth rate that have traditionally characterized microalgal cultures, however, have resulted in a reduced economical feasibility. To develop a sustainable microalgal process it is required...

The increasingly heavy standardization of distribution overhead powerline installations presents an opportunity for the automated design of distribution overhead powerline pole structures, attachments and conductor spans. A successful design automation algorithm must be capable of generating...

We develop an approach for optimizing Hidden Markov model representations of voltage-gated ion channels that addresses the issues of topology determination and poorly performing optimization algorithms. Developing accurate models of neurological processes is a major goal of computational...
