Data-driven approaches to defining material property and performance relationships of armor ceramics undergoing dynamic loading
DownloadSpring 2023
This thesis utilizes a combined numerical and machine learning approach to explorethe performance of an alumina ceramic tile undergoing high-velocity impact. The fi-nite element model is established by incorporating a user-defined Johnson-Holmquist-Beissel (JHB) material model within the...

The Role of Industrial Energy Efficiency and Fuel Switching as Pathways to Net-Zero Emissions in the Canadian Pulp and Paper Sector
DownloadSpring 2022
Industrial decarbonization is a critical challenge along the pathway to reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions at a sufficient scale and pace to avoid the worst impacts of climate change. The intrinsic energy- and emissions-intensive nature of heavy industry has led to the recognition that...

Koch, Brendan M.L., Lo, Calvin, Li, Haoyang, Sano, Tomoko, Ligda, Jonathan, Hogan, James D.
This paper explores the compressive responses of alumina ceramics subjected to various levels of pre-damage via internal cracking. Pre-damage is achieved by subjecting the samples to thermal shock. Mechanical loading is performed using a load frame for quasi-static strain rates and a Kolsky bar...

Estimating Fine-Grained Mobile Application Energy Use based on Run-Time Software Measured Features
DownloadFall 2020
Inefficient mobile software kills battery life. Yet, developers lack the tools necessary to detect and solve energy bugs in software. In addition, developers are usually tasked with the creation of software features and triaging existing bugs. This means that most developers do not have the time...

Stochastic Energy Management and Cyber-Physical Security of Battery Energy Storage Systems in Smart Distribution Systems
DownloadFall 2020
Battery energy storage systems (BESSs) are vital for improving the sustainability, efficiency, and resiliency of smart distribution systems (SDSs). With the proper energy management, BESSs can provide a wide range of applications for both demand-side and grid-scale services in SDSs. However,...

Confined Uniaxial Compaction Observing Triaxial Response of Granular Media under Quasi-static Loading Conditions
DownloadFall 2019
Experimental studies have been carried out in this thesis to enhance the understanding of granular material failure by observing the effects of particle size on material properties. Understanding the granular behaviour of materials is important in pharmaceutical research, product quality in the...
