Design and Synthesis of Temperature Switchable Non-ionic Block Copolymers for Application to Oil Sands Extraction
DownloadSpring 2016
Based on the analysis of typical warm water oil sands extraction process, we investigated the use of a novel temperature switchable non-ionic block copolymer, poly (ethylene glycol)-b-poly (N-isopropyl acrylamide) (MPEG-b-PNIPAM), to enhance the bitumen recovery and the recycle of the polymer...

The incorporation of Cu interconnects into the manufacturing of integrated circuits has accompanied several modifications to the fabrication process and the associated material systems. The new fabrication process involves the development of dual damascene process, while the new materials systems...

Design of Macromolecular Anti-cancer Drug Delivery Systems using Molecular Dynamics Simulation
DownloadFall 2015
In recent years, the application of self-associating block copolymer based drug delivery systems has attracted increasing attention as nano-sized carriers for the encapsulation and the controlled delivery of water insoluble drugs. Most of the drug formulations are based on the “trial and error”...

Design Rules for Characteristics of Heat Flow in Welding on Thick Plates using Asymptotics and Blending
DownloadSpring 2021
The problem of moving heat sources is central to a wide range of industrial fields, including welding, surface heat treatment and additive manufacturing. However, there are few general and easily applicable solutions to predict critical thermal characteristics of heat flow such as the cooling...
