Barbedo, Lucas, Belanger, Simon, Lukovich, Jennifer V., Myers, Paul G., Tremblay, Jean-Eric
Pulses of ocean primary productivity during the fall season are frequent in the mid-latitudes when ocean cooling and wind-driven turbulence erode the surface stratification and allow the injection of nutrients into the euphotic zone. This phenomenon is often referred to as a phytoplankton fall...

Lithium Recovery from Hydraulic Fracturing Flowback and Produced Water using a Manganese-Based Sorbent
DownloadFall 2020
Increased demand for lithium products for use in lithium ion batteries has led to a search for new lithium resources in recent years in order to meet projected future consumption. One such potential lithium resource is low lithium bearing brines that are discharged from hydraulically fractured...

Labrador Sea Water formation rate and its impact on the local Meridional Overturning Circulation
Download2019-01-01
Feucher, Charlene, Garcia-Quintana, Yarisbel, Yashayev, Igor, Hu, Xianmin, Myers, Paul G.
This paper investigates the link between the Labrador Sea Water (LSW) formation rate and the strength of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation within the Labrador Sea. LSW is formed in the Labrador Sea through deep wintertime ocean convection and is then carried out of the basin by,...

Children’s and Fathers’ Perceptions of Fathers’ Use of Structure, Negative Control, and Autonomy Support
DownloadSpring 2017
The current study investigated fathers’ and children’s perspectives of fathers’ use of structure, negative control, and autonomy support parenting behaviours in relation to children’s internalizing, externalizing, and adaptive behaviours, and father-child attachment. Researchers interviewed 55...

Control, Modulation, and Protection Strategies for Modular Multilevel Converters in Smart AC and DC Grids Applications
DownloadFall 2017
The technical viability of the modular multilevel converter (MMC) technology for a wide range of applications from low- to high-voltage systems has resulted in the rapid deployment of these converters in smart ac and dc grids. The features that MMCs offer, including common dc-link, modularity,...

Numerical Simulations of Anelastic and Boussinesq Rotating Convection with Radial Entropy Gradient Boundary Conditions
DownloadFall 2017
Observations from the gas giants Jupiter or Saturn allow for researchers to construct geophysical fluid dynamical numerical models in an attempt to replicate the observed features. Most models aim at replicating the zonal jets and the eddies observed on these gas giants to understand how they are...

Characterization and Control of Cyclic Variability in a Gasoline/Natural Gas Dual-Injection Spark Ignition Engine
DownloadSpring 2016
Reducing the cyclic variability of a gasoline/natural gas dual injection spark ignition engine using minimum variance control is the subject of this thesis. Cylinder pressure is used to calculate four combustion metrics, the standard deviation of which is used as an indicator of cyclic...

NUMERICAL AND SEMI-EMPIRICAL MODELING OF PARTICLES UNDERGOING PHASE CHANGE UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF CONVECTION
DownloadFall 2016
This work is devoted to the development and validation of subgrid models describing heat and mass transfer between the bulk flow of gas/liquid and a moving particle undergoing phase change under the influence of free/mixed/forced convection. Such kind of submodels plays the role of ’scale...
