Parsazadeh, Mohammad, Fisher, Gary, McDonald, André, Hogan, James D.
Sliding wear was simulated for tungsten carbide-nickel (WC-Ni) composites with different WC particle sizes and volume fractions under various normal forces. Johnson-Cook and Johnson-Holmquist models were employed to simulate the mechanical behaviour of the Ni and WC phases, respectively. Using...

Corrosion Assessment and Mechanisms of Materials in Pre-hydrolysis and Hydrothermal Liquefaction Biorefining Systems
DownloadFall 2022
Advanced biomass conversion technologies, including hot dilute acidic pre-hydrolysis and hydrothermal liquefaction, have been developed for the generation of renewable bioenergy products and biochemicals from existing biomass resources and biowastes. However, the deployment of the technologies is...
