Applications of nonautonomous infinite-dimensional systems control theory for parabolic PDEs
DownloadFall 2013
Parabolic partial differential equations (PDEs) are used as models of transport-reaction phenomena in a variety of different industrial chemical and materials engineering processes, and can yield precise descriptions of process variables with complex temporal and spatially dependent system...

Thunderstorms have the potential to produce severe weather and can result in significant financial and human losses. The province of Alberta is one of Canada’s most active thunderstorm regions, with the record for insured damage due to hail. Therefore, it is crucial that thunderstorm forecasts be...

Economic and Environmental Assessment of Large-scale Electro-chemical and Flywheel Energy Storage Systems for Stationary Applications
DownloadFall 2022
There are few cost and environmental feasibility assessments of energy storage systems for utility-scale applications. The development of techno-economic and environmental performance indicators is crucial to make an informed decision on future development and deployment of energy storage...

Estimation, Soft Sensing and Servo-control of Linear Distributed and Lumped Parameter Systems
DownloadFall 2021
State-of-the-art advancements in the realm of industrial process control and monitoring often require accurate descriptions of complex processes and their dynamical behaviours. Usually, many industrial processes are described by partial differential equations (PDE) or ordinary differential...

Experimental study for determining the mass transfer coefficient under two-phase flow boiling condition
DownloadFall 2015
The mass transfer is an important phenomenon associated with a wide range of problems in the nuclear industry, such as materials degradation of components and fouling of heat exchangers and steam generators. However, mass transfer under a two-phase flow boiling condition has not been successfully...

Implementation and Evaluation of Spatiotemporal Prediction Algorithms and Prediction of Spatially Distributed Greenhouse Gas Inventories
DownloadFall 2011
Growing environmental concerns require monitoring and modelling of greenhouse gases. These modelling efforts require processing of massive datasets in a timely fashion. This, in turn, can lead to feasibility problems when estimating values of missing data points. This thesis examines and compares...
