A Review of Alberta’s Economy in 2019 and Overview of Ways to Eliminate Fossil Fuels Using Marxism
Download2020-03-01
This discussion is an overview of the Albertan economy in 2019 with suggestions to eliminate fossil fuels from the equation. With the current state of the climate, shifting towards sustainable energy will be integral in prolonging the success of our species. The Albertan economy is based heavily...

Our bodies are in a constant state of flux. Skin cells get recycled every few weeks, blood cells every few months, liver cells every two years. Over the course of a decade or so, every atom is replaced, and our bodies are made entirely new. Despite this, most of us feel that we are essentially...

Climate and air quality impacts of boreal wildfires — new analytical approaches for the investigation of light absorption and atmospheric reactivity of wildfire particulate matter
DownloadSpring 2022
Wildfire smoke emissions contain substantial amounts of light-absorbing aerosols that can affect the radiation and cloud processes, resulting in climate impacts on regional and even global scales. The radiative impact of these light-absorbing aerosols is largely contributed by brown carbon (BrC),...

Complementary Workflows for Analyzing Multiphase Flowback and Post-flowback Production Data In Unconventional Reservoirs
DownloadFall 2017
The application of horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing techniques has resulted in the economic production of previously inaccessible hydrocarbon trapped in very-low permeability reservoirs such as Shale gas/oil, tight gas and tight oil. Although the economic production of these...

Fluvial inorganic carbon cycling across divergently evolving permafrost landscapes (Yukon and Northwest Territories, Canada)
DownloadFall 2019
Across the circumpolar north, rapid warming and intensifying hydrologic cycles are accelerating permafrost thaw and strengthening land-freshwater linkages. Among the most significant implications of this change is the mobilization of large amounts of previously sequestered organic and inorganic...

Investigation of Failure Modes of Fiber Reinforced Polymer Composite Flywheel Rotors for Energy Storage Systems
DownloadFall 2022
High-velocity and long-lifetime operating conditions of modern high-speed energy storage flywheel rotors may create the necessary conditions for failure modes not included in current quasi-static failure analyses. The central hypothesis for this thesis research is that (i) viscoelastic effects...

Spring 2022
In this dissertation, I examine the major texts of nineteenth-century African American abolitionist Martin Delany to show how he transforms literary genres to develop his arguments for emigration and the uplift of African Americans in the United States. By doing so, I argue first that Delany is...
