Fall 2010
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...

Wettability Alteration by Chemical Agents at Elevated Temperatures and Pressures to Improve Heavy-Oil Recovery
DownloadFall 2017
The thermal method is the primary method used to improve the recovery from reservoirs with heavy or extra-heavy oil. However, the efficiency and economic costliness of the traditional thermal process are limited by the unfavorable interfacial properties of heavy oil/water (steam)/rock system....

Wildfire Fuel Mapping with Convolutional Neural Networks for Remote Automated Exposure Assessment
DownloadFall 2023
While beneficial to the natural environment in many cases, wildfires become hazardous when they intersect with the built environment. As such, there is an ongoing effort to understand the fire environment, the fuels it contains, and the way that wildfire interacts with the built environment. In...

Workflow for Sand Control Testing of Injection Wells in Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD)
DownloadSpring 2020
This research aims at tackling a specific production engineering problem in sand retention testing (SRT). One common practice of operational oil companies is to prevent sanding by deploying standalone screens (SAS). SAS consists of slotted liners (SL), wire wrap screens (WWS), and punched screens...
