Minimum production cost and optimum plant size are determined for pellet plants for three types of biomass feedstock – forest residue, agricultural residue, and energy crops. The life cycle cost from harvesting to the delivery of the pellets to the co-firing facility is evaluated. The cost varies...

Thaker, Spandan, Oni, Abayomi Olufemi, Kumar, Amit
In this paper, a data-intensive cost model was developed for sensible heat, latent heat and thermochemical storage systems. In order to evaluate the economic feasibility of storage systems, five scenarios were developed depending on the method of storage. The five scenarios considered were...

Fahimi, Farbod, Dawson, Michael R., Carey, Jason P.
The objective of above-elbow myoelectric prostheses is to reestablish the functionality of missing limbs and increase the quality of life of amputees. By using electromyography (EMG) electrodes attached to the surface of the skin, amputees are able to control motors in myoelectric prostheses by...

The development of a cost structure for energy storage systems (ESS) has received limited attention. In this study, we developed data-intensive techno-economic models to assess the economic feasibility of ESS. The ESS here includes pump hydro storage (PHS) and compressed air energy storage...

The effect of perturbations on resistance to sliding in second order moments comparing two different bracket types
Download2014
Wong, Justin W., Carey, Jason P., Romanyk, Dan L., Heo, Giseon, Toogood, Roger W., Major, Paul W.
Orthodontic literature has shown all ligation methods to behave similarly in the clinical situation; however, the reasoning behind this still requires further investigation. A novel frictional device able to measure forces at the level of the bracket along with a custom perturbation device was...

We report upon experimental and analytical investigations of filling box flows in non-uniform porous media characterized by a sudden change in permeability. The porous medium consists of two layers separated by a horizontal permeability jump and is initially filled with light ambient fluid. A...

The Effect on Elastic Modulus of Rigid-Matrix Tubular Composite Braid Radius and Braid Angle Change Under Tensile Loading
Download2013
Melenka, Garrett W., Leung, Cheequn K., Nobes, David S., Carey, Jason P.
The objective of this paper is to assess changes in braid radius and braid angle of braided composite tubes under tensile loading using stereomicroscope digital image correlation (DIC) based optical measurement techniques. Using this approach, displacement fields were calculated and three...

The effects of defects on the uniaxial compressive strength and failure of an advanced ceramic
Download2016
Ramesh, K., Farbaniec, Lukasz, Hogan, James D., Sano, Tomoko, Shaeffer, Matthew
This study investigates the effects of the processing-induced defect population on the dynamic compressive strength and failure of a hot-pressed boron carbide. Quantitative microscopic analysis was used to determine the distributions of three types of processing-induced inhomogeneities: aluminum...

The Effects of Intra-membrane Viscosity on Lipid Membrane Morphology: Complete Analytical Solution
Download2018-12-15
We present a linear theory of lipid membranes which accommodates the effects of intra-membrane viscosity into the model of deformations. Within the Monge parameterization, a linearized version of the shape equation describing membrane morphology is derived. Admissible boundary conditions are...
