Spring 2019
Tall, slender masonry walls are a competitive solution for resisting both out-of-plane (OOP) and gravity loads in low and high-rise structures. The use of taller and thinner walls is appealing due to the use of less material, need for smaller foundations, faster construction, lower seismic...

Spring 2010
This research program focused on the behaviour of low cycle fatigue (LCF) of wrinkled pipes, and was designed to develop the LCF life prediction models for the wrinkled pipes. It consisted of three phases of work, which are strip tests, full-scale pipe tests, and finite element analysis (FEA). In...

Development of Methods to Improve Subsurface Injection Project Site-Suitability Assessments Conducted in the Alberta Basin
DownloadFall 2023
Drastic changes in the scale and type of fluid injection required to support the implementation of a net-zero energy economy have introduced risks previously not considered in existing site screening processes conducted for industrial-scale injection projects. A scale of injection unprecedented...

Development of quantitative methods for project scheduling and workface planning under time-dependent resource constraints
DownloadSpring 2016
Analytical decision support for project scheduling and workface planning under time-dependent resource constraints is limited in industrial-construction. Previous project scheduling research endeavors in the construction engineering and management domain focused on formulating...

Development of Robust Equilibrium Calculation Algorithms for Reservoir Fluids at Given Volume, Temperature and Composition
DownloadFall 2020
Two-phase and three-phase equilibria can be frequently observed in the petroleum industry. To accurately predict the phase behavior of complex fluid mixtures lies at the core of the analysis and design of petroleum recovery and petrochemical processes. Normally, engineers or researchers rely on...

Development of Robust Multiphase Equilibrium Calculation Algorithms for Complex Reservoir Fluids Containing Asphaltene
DownloadSpring 2024
Multiphase equilibria, including three-phase vapor-liquid-asphaltene (VLS) equilibria and four-phase vapor-liquid-aqueous-asphaltene (VLAS) equilibria, can appear during enhanced oil recovery (EOR) processes. Robust multiphase equilibrium calculation algorithms are important techniques in...

Development of Robust Three-Phase Equilibrium Calculation Algorithms for Complex Reservoir Fluids
DownloadFall 2019
Three-phase equilibria, such as three-phase vapor-liquid-aqueous (VLA) equilibria and three-phase vapor-liquid-asphaltene (VLS) equilibria, can frequently appear in hydrocarbon reservoirs. In three-phase equilibrium calculations, one of the most prominent problems is caused by the lack of a prior...

Fall 2023
Crude oil, as a major type of fossil fuels, is a mixture mainly made up of hydrocarbons. One important research topic relevant to the extraction, transportation, and storage of these hydrocarbon mixtures is the study of multiphase equilibria under specified specifications, especially the...

Development of Solvent Selection Criteria Based on Diffusion Rate, Mixing Quality, and Solvent Retrieval for Optimal Heavy-Oil and Bitumen Recovery at Different Temperatures
DownloadFall 2015
Heavy-oil and bitumen recovery requires high recovery factors to offset the extreme high cost of the process. Attention has been given to solvent injection for this purpose and it has been observed that high recoveries are achievable when combined with steam injection. Heavier (“liquid”) solvents...

One of the most effective ways to lower the energy used to heat or cool residential and commercial buildings is Underground Thermal Energy Storage (UTES) systems. These systems store thermal energy in underground enclosures (borefield) where it can be used when it is needed. UTES systems...
