Fall 2021
In this note we present a construction which improves the best known bound on the minimal dispersion of large volume boxes in the unit cube. The dispersion of a subset of the cube is the supremal volume over all axis parallel boxes in the cube which do not intersect the given subset. The minimal...

Fall 2011
The impact of mixing on diluted bitumen de-watering is studied in two stages using a fractional factorial design of experiments. The first stage evaluates the relative effects of bulk demulsifier dosage, local maximum energy dissipation, and mixing time. The second stage of experiments evaluates...

Performance evaluation and protocol design of fixed-rate and rateless coded relaying networks
DownloadSpring 2011
The importance of cooperative relaying communication in substituting for, or complementing, multiantenna systems is described, and a brief literature review is presented. Amplify-and-forward (AF) and decode-and-forward (DF) relaying are investigated and compared for a dual-hop relay channel. The...

Rheological behavior and nano-microstructure of complex fluids: Biomedical and Bitumen-Heavy oil applications
DownloadFall 2010
The main objective of this research was to exploit the interrelations between the rheological behavior and nano-microstructure of complex fluids in solving two state-of-the-art problems, one in the field of biomedical engineering: controlling the amount and characteristics of bioaerosol droplets...
