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...

Thermo-mechanical analysis of fluids using microfluidic cantilever in dynamic resonance mode
DownloadSpring 2023
This thesis investigates the thermo-mechanical behavior of picograms of fluids using a suspended microchannel resonator called microfluidic cantilever operating in dynamic mode by exploring the interfacial effects of liquids on the resonance frequency. Microfluidic cantilever is a promising...

Alberta’s oil sands deposits are the third-largest proven crude oil reserve in the world. However, only 20% of the bitumen in Alberta’s oil sands are shallow enough to be recoverable by surface mining techniques; the remaining 80% can only be extracted using in-situ techniques that involve the...

A pavement system is a multi-layer structure that provides ease of ride for commuters by successfully transferring the traffic-induced loadings to the ground. A typical flexible pavement structure is comprised of Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA), the strongest material in terms of strength, overlying the...

Spring 2014
The spontaneous assembly of polypeptides through non-covalent interactions at physiological conditions is the main focus of the presented work and will be discussed from two different perspectives: (i) the interaction of peptide chains with themselves leading to formation of higher order...

Thermodynamic Investigation of the Effect of Interface Curvature on Solid-Liquid Equilibrium and Its Application to Zinc-Air Battery Electrolyte at Low Temperature
DownloadSpring 2018
Micro and nanoscale confinements and local curvatures, which are ubiquitous in natural and man-made materials and systems, cause significant impact on thermodynamic phase behavior. This effect has been extensively studied for single component solid's liquid phase transitions, but rarely for...
