Spring 2010
Stress corrosion cracking (SCC) from the external surface of a buried pipeline is a serious matter and can cause significant economic and environmental losses. Despite of many research works which have been done on the understanding of crack initiation and propagation mechanisms, these mechanisms...

Crack Growth Behavior of Pipeline Steels under Variable Pressure Fluctuations in a Near-Neutral pH Environment
DownloadFall 2015
This research aims at understanding the crack propagation behavior of pipeline steels under variable pressure fluctuations in a near-neutral pH environment. Although pressure fluctuations have been recognized as the driving force for crack growth for more than two decades, the mechanisms...

Crack Growth Behaviour of Pipeline Steels under Variable Pressure Fluctuations in a High pH Environment
DownloadSpring 2021
High pH Stress Corrosion Cracking (HpHSCC) in the pipeline steel has been a threat for buried pipeline integrity since the first occurrence in the 1960s. Much research has been devoted to understanding the causes of this phenomenon and remedies for mitigation of HpHSCC failures. In addition to...

Fall 2017
In a recent construction project, a platform structure made up of 350W and 300W steel underwent a double dip galvanizing process. Prior to the galvanizing process, the platform was fabricated to completion, which included numerous welds throughout the design. After galvanizing, cracks were found...

Creation and Characterization of Ceramic/Polymer Bi-Continuous Composite Material for Hot-Bitumen Pipeline Coating
DownloadSpring 2015
Current composite materials base their capabilities from the dispersion of discrete reinforcing materials throughout a matrix. This method places too much reliance on the surface bond between matrix and reinforcing phase. By employing two continuous, interpenetrating materials, it is theorized...

Critical Analysis of Train Occurrences in Canada through Process Safety Techniques and Safety Risk Model Approach
DownloadSpring 2023
Canada’s national rail network is the third-largest in the world, playing a vital role in moving goods and people across the country. Rail transportation transfers $320 billion worth of goods and over 100 million passengers annually. Although railway activities are beneficial to Canada’s...

Data analysis for the classification of gas-liquid and liquid-solid (slurry) flows using digital signal processing
DownloadSpring 2013
The Canadian oil sand industry operates three phase gas-liquid-solid hydrotransport pipelines to transport oil sand ore from mines to processing facilities. This hydrotransport process is critical to downstream separation activities, given the conditioning steps that occur within it: (i) lump...
