Incorporation of 3-D Mixing in Long-term Production Scheduling Optimization for Block Caving Mines
DownloadFall 2018
As open-pit mines go deeper, because of the massive amount of waste removal which is required to extract the ore as well as high operational costs per tonne, underground mining has become more attractive. Block caving is the only underground mining method that its production rates and...

Integrated Production Planning and Control System for Prefabrication of Panelized Construction for Residential Building
DownloadFall 2016
Panelized construction has been recognized as a promising approach to residential construction. However, its full potential in terms of productivity improvement has not yet been realized due to the absence of an automated production planning and control system. This research thus conceives an...

Investigating Light Solvent Aided Process in Cold Lake Oil-Sand Reservoir Using Experimental and Numerical Approaches
DownloadSpring 2019
Steam assisted- gravity drainage (SAGD) is the main in-situ bitumen recovery process in which saturated steam is injected into the bitumen zone. However, it has some drawbacks, which include high-energy consumption and significant environmental concerns. Solvent Aided Process (SAP) is a method...
