Fall 2011
This current work investigates pore structure of various reservoir-rock materials using state-of-the-art microscopy such as micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) and Focused Ion Beam-Scanning electron Microscopy (FIB-SEM). Novel sample preparation methods have been developed for such rock cores,...

Sub-unit Cell Modeling and Manufacturing of Non-Orthogonal Three-Dimensional Braided Structures
DownloadSpring 2021
Three-dimensional (3D) braiding is commonly considered an advantageous method for producing near-net composites that provide improved transverse properties relative to two-dimensional (2D) braiding. Modeling of 3D braids is an ever-growing field of research – particularly the use of sub-unit cell...

Superhydrophobic Micro- and Nano-structured Surfaces: Fabrication, Wetting, and Evaporation
DownloadFall 2020
Water-repellent, superhydrophobic (SH) surfaces have attracted a remarkable interest in researchers for both purely academic pursuits and industrial applications, including nanofluidics and microfluidics, coatings, and drag reduction, due to their unique self-cleaning and drag reduction...
