Mathematical modeling and experimental validation of thin low platinum content and functionally graded cathode catalyst layers
DownloadFall 2014
Low catalyst content remains a key requirement for the commercialization of polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFCs) into the energy, transportation, and material handling sectors. Understanding the fundamental phenomena reducing fuel cell performance at various stages of operation play a major...

Fall 2014
Three important mechanical behaviors of microtubules in vivo, i.e., buckling, vibration and splitting are investigated with especial focus on their relevance to biological functions of microtubules. To study the vibration and buckling of a microtubule, we model a microtubule as an elastic beam...

Mineral Resource Classification and Drill Hole Optimization Using Novel Geostatistical Algorithms with a Comparison to Traditional Techniques
DownloadSpring 2015
The classification of mineral resources must follow standards that were created to regulate the public disclosure of projects assisting investors and their advisers in making investment decisions and preventing the publication of erroneous, misleading and fraudulent information. The definition of...

Spring 2015
Fault detection methods have become an important tool in the prevention of safety and reliability issues for industrial rotating machines. Faults in these machines often develop progressively and are not easily observed under operating conditions until severe damage has occurred and further...

Fall 2009
This thesis focuses on the use of computer simulation for modeling risk of a multi-state repairable component. In production processes, maintenance decisions are often made based on uncertain assessment of risk, not only in the probability when a process component goes into a state of failure...

Modelling of PEMFC Catalyst Layer Mass Transport and Electro-Chemical Reactions Using Multi-scale Simulations
DownloadFall 2014
The focus of this work is on improving understanding of mass transport limiting phenomena occurring within the micro-structure of Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cell (PEFC) Catalyst Layers (CL). Micro-scale models, namely agglomerates, are employed within multi-scale CL framework, to examine many...

Nanoscale resonators fabricated from metallic alloys, and modeling and simulation of polycrystalline thin film growth
DownloadSpring 2010
Part I - We have designed a binary metallic alloy for nanoscale resonator applications. We used magnetron sputtering to deposit films with different stoichiometries of aluminum and molybdenum and then characterized the microstructure and physical properties of each film. A structure zone map is...
