Development of Non-Destructive Indentation Fracture Toughness Methodologies for High Strength Alloys Case study: High strength rail steels and aluminum
DownloadFall 2024
Rail derailment comprising largely from main track derailments frequently occur in the Canadian railway network. Reports have shown that some of these derailments experienced a train-initiated emergency brake application caused primarily from broken rails especially at extreme cold temperatures....

Operated under changing wind speed and harsh environment conditions, the rotating parts in wind turbine gearboxes, such as gears and bearings, will deteriorate and become faulty over time. By conducting real-time and accurate fault detection and diagnosis before significant failures occur, we can...

Intelligent resource management and decision support system for sustainable refuse-derived fuel production
DownloadFall 2024
Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) represents a diverse array of materials promising substantial potential for reuse and recycling. MSW originates from residential, commercial, and construction sources and is generally divided into recyclable and non-recyclable categories. Specifically, within the...

Experimental and numerical investigation of atraumatic tooth extraction biomechanics in an ex vivo swine model
DownloadFall 2024
Tooth extraction (exodontia) is among the most common surgical procedures in healthcare, driven by the prevalence of tooth decay and periodontal disease. Traditionally, tooth extraction is completed with forceps and the exertion of combined loads about the tooth’s centre of rotation. This...

Optimization of condition-based maintenance in wind energy systems using numerical approach
DownloadFall 2024
Effective maintenance strategies play a critical role in ensuring the operational integrity of wind farms while concurrently reducing costs. Among a variety of maintenance strategies, condition-based maintenance (CBM) stands out as an effective approach nowadays. This is an approach to...

In-field assessment of athletic performance and fatigue onset detection during ice skating using wearable sensors
DownloadFall 2024
Ice skating requires high aerobic and anaerobic fitness levels, well-coordinated body motion, and efficient neuromuscular systems functioning, requiring continuous performance assessment. Inertial measurement units (IMUs), widely used in tracking human motion for medical diagnostics and clinical...

Markerless Surface Topography for Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis Screening, Torso Aesthetic Appearance Assessment, and Postural Outcomes Evaluation
DownloadFall 2024
The primary goal of conservative treatment for adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is to prevent the spinal curve from worsening. Other goals of treatment are to improve aesthetic outcomes through postural correction, address respiratory dysfunction, and treat pain symptoms. The...
