Assessing The Benefits Of Cost-Effective Monitoring Technology On Unstable Slopes Sensitive To Weather
DownloadFall 2021
Across Canada, the presence of ground hazards, such as rock falls, rock slides, or earth slides, next to transportation corridors, is a potential risk to transport system users, the infrastructure, and traffic operations. Monitoring instrumentation systems tracking unstable slopes are a key...

The near wake behind the Ahmed body at zero-yaw has been extensively studied in the past, but comparatively little is known about the changes in the wake flow patterns during crossflow. Measurements of the near wake of a square-back Ahmed body were obtained at a Reynolds Number of ReH = 9.2104...

Experimental Investigation of Near-well Fluid Mechanics on the Scaling Mechanism in Narrow Rectangular Slots
DownloadSpring 2020
This experimental study investigates the effect of near-well fluid mechanics on the scaling failure mechanism specific to SAGD production well. The scaling failure mechanism can be triggered by the pressure drop phenomenon and causes the plugging of the slots in the oilfields. The scale formation...

Helicopters have proven to be a versatile air vehicle in today’s society and are used in a variety of applications. Many complexities arise in the aerodynamics of helicopters due to the presence of the main rotor downwash and the diverse range of flight conditions. The various uses of helicopters...

EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF THE SETTLING VELOCITY OF SPHERICAL PARTICLES IN VISCOELASTIC FLUIDS
DownloadFall 2017
Knowledge of settling behavior of particles in various types of fluids is indispensable to design and optimize numerous industrial operations such as cuttings transport in oil and gas well drilling, proppant transport in hydraulic fracturing operations, and so on. Most of the models developed so...

Investigating the Performance of Randomly Patterned Superhydrophobic Surfaces in Laminar and Turbulent Channel Flows
DownloadSpring 2019
Superhydrophobic surfaces (SHSs) have been investigated based on their success in water repellency, anti-fouling, and drag reducing effects seen in nature (Neinhuis & Bartlott 1997; Kreuz et al. 2001). SHSs utilize a low surface energy material with a microscale surface roughness to prevent water...
