The role of microtopography in vegetation colonization and early forest development on mine reclamation sites
DownloadSpring 2023
Microsite heterogeneity is an important variable that drives biodiversity in forests. Current forest reclamation practices often do not incorporate site heterogeneity in their practices which might pose a challenge to the reclamation goals of restoring disturbed sites to resilient and sustainable...

The goal of top-k ranking is to rank individuals so that the best k of them can be determined. Depending on the application domain, an individual can be a person, a product, an event, or just a collection of data or information for which an ordering makes sense. In the context of databases, top-k...

Uncertainty in Life Cycle Assessments of Well-to-Wheel Greenhouse Gas Emissions of Transportation Fuels Derived from Various Crude Oils
DownloadFall 2016
Growing concern over climate change has created pressure on the oil and gas industry to reduce their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Several life cycle assessment (LCA) studies have examined various crude oils in an attempt to determine which have the lowest and highest well-to-wheel (WTW) GHG...

Uncertainty in Probabilistic Open Pit Slope Stability Analyses: Implications for Reliability-Based Designs
DownloadSpring 2024
The presence of uncertainty is acknowledged in various fields of Engineering. Also, there are many sources of uncertainties. In geotechnical engineering, probabilistic slope stability analysis (PSSA) is a tool used to quantify parameter uncertainty. It achieves this by considering any strength...

Villalba Matamoros, Martha Emelly
Analysis of uncertainty in ore reserves impacts investment decisions, mine planning and sampling. Uncertainty is evaluated by geostatistical simulation and is affected by the amount of data and the modeling parameters. Incomplete uncertainty is given because the parameter uncertainty is ignored....

Uncertainty in well-to-tank with combustion greenhouse gas emissions of transportation fuels derived from North American crudes
Download2017-01-01
Di Lullo, Giovanni, Zhang, Hao, Kumar, Amit
Many studies have calculated deterministic point estimates of well-to-combustion (WTC) emissions of transportation fuels from crude oil in an attempt to determine which crude oils have lower or higher emissions. However, there is considerable variation in the published results, resulting in...

This thesis sets out a workflow to quantify uncertainty of the Arrow Deposit, a tabular, vein type, high-grade, basement-hosted, uranium deposit located on NexGen Energy Limited’s 100%-owned Rook I property in northern Saskatchewan. The uncertainty associated with the volume, grade, and density...

Spring 2022
Estimating costs for construction projects is a complex and often uncertain process. Given the inherent uncertainty of estimating and the unique risk profile of each construction project, many owners use cost uncertainty analysis to understand a project’s range of potential costs. Since results...

Unsaturated Flow Model
2019-06-06
Xiaochuan Tony Zheng, Tony Zheng
The un-saturated flow sub-model is based on a previously developed infiltration-drainage model. This research improves the original model by adding capabilities of handling dynamic boundary conditions and inter-layer overflow mechanisms. Additional validation cases are conducted to build...

Reid, R.E., Sherstabetoff, J.N.
Syncrude Canada Ltd. is producing synthetic crude oil from a surface mine on the eastern portion of Syncrude Lease 17. Hardy Associates was commissioned to describe and map the vegetation types and to assess forest productivity on the adjacent Lease 22 in order to add to Syncrude's baseline...
