Optimization of steam/solvent injection methods: Application of hybrid techniques with improved algorithm configuration
DownloadFall 2012
Heavy oil and bitumen recovery processes need to be optimized in order to increase the recovery, reduce costs, and minimize the environment impact. Most of the optimization studies published in petroleum engineering literature focus on a few design parameters by combining the elements of...

Quantitative analysis of single particle tracking experiments: applying ecological methods in cellular biology
DownloadFall 2010
Single-particle tracking (SPT) is a method used to study the diffusion of various molecules within the cell. SPT involves tagging proteins with optical labels and observing their individual two-dimensional trajectories with a microscope. The analysis of this data provides important information...

The Effect of Conventional Elastomers on Force and Moment of a Self-Ligating Orthodontic Bracket with Second-Order Angulation in the Dry and Wet States evaluated through a new 3D Friction Device
DownloadSpring 2013
Objective: A new three-dimensional friction device was used to investigate the effect of conventional elastomers on force and moment of a self-ligating orthodontic bracket with second-order angulation during a simulated retraction. Methods: An 0.018x0.025-in stainless steel archwire was drawn...
