Spring 2021
It is not trivial to understand the underlying principle of polymer dynamics due to its wide range of applications in our daily lives. This thesis mainly focuses on the theory and simulation of polyethylene melts, which are not only restricted to the classic linear structure, but also extended to...

Fundamental Study of Flotation Behaviors and Oxidation Mechanisms of Polymorphic Pyrrhotite and Pentlandite
DownloadFall 2021
This thesis is mainly concerned with understanding the flotation behaviors of the polymorphic pyrrhotite (Fe1-xS, 0 < x ≤ 0.125) and pentlandite ((Ni,Fe)9S8) to find better measures for their flotation separation. The flotation separation of pentlandite from pyrrhotite is a complicated issue due...

Predictive Expressions for Residual Stress and Distortion in Welding and Related Thermal Processes
DownloadFall 2021
This work establishes the foundation for the estimation of forces and distortions induced by thermal processes, such as welding, as well as incorporates the effects of departure from idealizations. The Order of Magnitude Scaling (OMS) technique is applied to thermal-mechanical analysis of a...

Dynamic Interfacial Tensions and Dilatational Viscoelastic Properties of Asphaltenes at Oil/Water Interface at High Pressure and High Temperature Conditions
DownloadFall 2021
The dynamic interfacial tension and dilatational viscoelasticity behaviors of asphaltenes at oil/water interfaces were investigated by means of an oscillating droplet tensiometer. This oscillating droplet tensiometer was modified to handle temperature of 120 °C and pressure up to 700 kPa. For...

Fall 2020
The depletion of fossil fuels as well as the greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuel use have led to growing interest in biofuel production from biomass. A new technology, thermo-catalytic reforming (TCR), is one of the contributing interests. TCR technology integrates intermediate pyrolysis...

Spring 2022
Self-cycling fermentation (SCF) is an advanced, automated, semi-continuous fermentation strategy that is used to improve the volumetric productivity of bioproduction. Typically, a microbial culture is grown in a reactor and half the reactor contents are harvested once a limiting nutrient is...
