Design Rules for Characteristics of Heat Flow in Welding on Thick Plates using Asymptotics and Blending
DownloadSpring 2021
The problem of moving heat sources is central to a wide range of industrial fields, including welding, surface heat treatment and additive manufacturing. However, there are few general and easily applicable solutions to predict critical thermal characteristics of heat flow such as the cooling...

Synthesis, Characterization, and 3D Printing of Conductive Polyhydroxybutyrate-Graphenic Nanomaterial Composites
DownloadSpring 2021
Advances in materials development are leading to the emergence of new classes of printable and inexpensive electronic devices, including sensors for healthcare monitoring. Most traditional sensors are built on rigid substrates, which restricts the use of these sensors. Research is driven by...

Limits of Control Performance for Networked Control Systems with Random Communication Delays
DownloadSpring 2021
Networked control systems (NCSs) and distributed networked control systems (DNCSs) increasingly appear in the modern process industry due to continuous expansion of system scales, physical setups and functionalities. Control loops in a NCS are closed through information exchange between the...

Synergistic Role of Sodium Hydroxide and Sodium Citrate on Bitumen Slime Coating in Process Water
DownloadFall 2021
Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is generally used as the primary processing aid in the water-based oil sands extraction for the recovery of bitumen. It was found by Syncrude Canada Ltd. that the combined use of sodium hydroxide and sodium citrate could effectively improve the bitumen recovery as compared...

Transition Metal Oxides Anchored onto Heteroatom Doped Carbon Nanotubes as Efficient Bifunctional Catalysts for Rechargeable Zinc-Air Batteries
DownloadFall 2021
It is well known that renewable energy, e.g., wind and solar power, are intermittent energy sources. This means that energy storage devices are needed to store the energy for when it is needed. Currently Li-ion batteries are used as these energy storage devices, not only for alternative energy...
