Bioactive glasses are a type of ceramic material designed to be used as bioresorbable therapeutic bone implants. Thermal treatment of bioactive glass ceramics dictates many important features such as microstructure, degree of crystallinity, mechanical properties, and mineralization. This study...

Water walls play a crucial role in the operation of refineries, industrial plants, and power plants. However, the repeated start-ups and shutdowns of boilers lead to in- phase thermo-mechanical fatigue failure of the water walls with fatigue cracks often initiating from pre-existing weld defects....

The extraction of bitumen (heavy oil) from the oil sands is predominantly achieved through a water-based technology. This involves a slurrying process, typically called conditioning, which is categorized into three equally important steps: bitumen-sand liberation, bitumen coalescence, and...

Effect of Field Bending and Girth Weld on the Initiation and Early Growth of Near-Neutral pH Circumferential Stress Corrosion Cracking (NNpHCSCC) in Thin-walled Pipeline
DownloadFall 2023
Pipeline failure because of near-neutral pH stress corrosion cracking (NNpHSCC) has been a concern in Canada for over 30 years. Previous studies focused on axial NNpHSCC, which has happened more frequently than circumferential NNPHSCC (C-NNPHSCC). This study focuses on the significance of...

The research was conducted to investigate effect of hydrodynamic conditioning on the flocculation of the oil sands fine tailings. The main focus was the effect of shearing on the structure of flocculated aggregates and the extent of reflocculation occurring upon cessation of shearing. An...

Effect of Mechanical Loading Conditions on Near-neutral pH Stress Corrosion Cracking (NNpHSCC) Initiation and Early-stage Growth for Bent Pipeline
DownloadFall 2023
Near-neutral pH Stress Corrosion Cracking (NNpHSCC) continues causing failures of steel pipelines despite the use of preventative measures such as protective coating and cathodic protection. In pipelines with bends, the issue is more profound as stress is concentrated around the bends and the...

Protein adsorption is a serious issue that affects a wide range of biomaterial applications. Hydrophilic polymer coatings, such as zwitterion polymers and polyethylene oxide (PEO), can inhibit protein adsorption at the material-blood interface. In addition, PEO is widely viewed as a golden...

The susceptibility of pipeline steel to hydrogen induced degradation is closely related to the interaction between hydrogen and some microstructural features of the steel such as precipitates, inclusions, phase type and grain size. These microstructural features can act as hydrogen traps...

The effect of slurry conditioning on bitumen recovery and bitumen froth quality has been studied by using three oil sands ores tested with a laboratory hydrotransport extraction system (LHES) and a Denver flotation cell. Tests with the LHES show that an increase in slurry conditioning time...
