Fall 2017
Current oil sands mining and bitumen extraction methods produce a significant amount of tailings. Recent legislation in Alberta aims to guarantee operators treat their tailings and reclaim them 10 years after the end of mine life. Since 2012, oil sand companies have spent more than $1.3 billion...

We study the evolution of chaotic mixing in an initially stratified circular vessel. The bottom and top halves of the vessel are filled with viscoplastic and Newtonian fluids. A circular stirrer in the vessel promotes the mixing. We considered three different viscosity ratios to understand the...

This work focuses on the implementation and validation of the implicit Total Variation Diminishing (TVD) schemes for modelling of two-dimensional multiphase flow. The TVD schemes are designed to mitigate the numerical diffusion at the interface where discontinuities of fluid properties exist...

Investigation Using Polymer Additives to Mitigate Erosion in Multiphase Turbulent Pipe Flow
DownloadSpring 2019
Long chained polymers were evaluated for their impact on reducing pipe erosion during two-phase flow. The research study was compartmentalized into three categories. One of the components of this study investigated the erosion of different materials in an attempt to find a faster eroding...

Rheological behavior and nano-microstructure of complex fluids: Biomedical and Bitumen-Heavy oil applications
DownloadFall 2010
The main objective of this research was to exploit the interrelations between the rheological behavior and nano-microstructure of complex fluids in solving two state-of-the-art problems, one in the field of biomedical engineering: controlling the amount and characteristics of bioaerosol droplets...
