A robotically-controlled actuation system has been developed and built to perform active open-loop flow control experiments on transitional and turbulent backward-facing step flows in water. Control of the reattaching shear layer used hydraulic suction-and-blowing actuation emanating from 128...

This thesis seeks to examine the current state of the provenance metadata of rare books and manuscripts in digital special collections, and how that metadata can be enhanced using visualization tools. The multi-faceted nature of provenance is addressed, as well as the standards used to capture...

This thesis is an experimental investigation using optical methods to study atomization of fuel injectors for IC engines using a dual fuel mixture involving diesel and gasoline blends, which is called "dieseline". Experiments were executed in a heated pressurized optical chamber which simulated...

Recent shifts towards spatial issues within education are examined, and mapping is identified as particularly important. The multidisciplinary trend of complexity science is surveyed, in turn, through the lens of physics and education research. The provincial education system of Alberta is...

Simulation is often used to model production processes with the aim of understanding and improving them. In many cases, however, information produced by simulation is not detailed enough and can be misinterpreted. The use of visualization in combination with simulation can provide project...

Lean-Mod: An Approach to Modular Construction Manufacturing Production Efficiency Improvement
DownloadSpring 2014
Modular construction manufacturing (MCM) is superior to the current on-site construction system which is hampered by inefficiency and material and process waste. Modular buildings are potentially built through a more efficient and cost-effective method, but in the current manufacturing-based...
