Mechanical and Surface Properties of Polystyrene Fibers Reinforced with Cellulose Nanocrystals
DownloadFall 2018
Electrospinning of polystyrene (PS) as a ubiquitous polymer attracted tremendous attention. Though, different reinforcement techniques are commonly considered for the electrospun PS fibers because of their fragile structures. High mechanical properties of Cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) allow these...

Fall 2017
Sinkholes are frequently reported around the world, and soil erosion around defective sewer pipe is found to be one of the possible cause of sinkholes. As water infiltrates through the defect in a pipe, soil can be washed into the pipe leading to a cavity or even sinkhole formation. Besides,...

Mechanistic Simulation Study of Steam-Solvent Coinjection for Bitumen and Heavy-Oil Recovery
DownloadFall 2013
Solvent-steam coinjection has been proposed as an alternative to SAGD. Detailed oil recovery mechanisms of coinjection are little known due to complex interaction of phase behavior, and fluid and energy flow. This research conducts a detailed mechanistic study of phase behavior and its...

Meeting the Water for Life challenge: Management scenarios to improve irrigation water use efficiency and reduce water demand in the Western Irrigation District, Alberta
DownloadFall 2012
Simulation of two alternative management scenarios - full rehabilitation and implementation of most efficient technologies, and water application restrictions - were investigated with the Irrigation Demand Model (IDM) as potential avenues to improve water use efficiency and reduce water demand in...

Methodology for Assessing Transport Properties of Wells Used in the Geological Storage of Carbon Dioxide
DownloadFall 2014
One of the aspects of climate change is global warming, which can be defined as the increase in the average temperature of the Earth’s near-surface air and the oceans and its projected continuation. Scientific understanding of the cause of global warming has been increasing. In its fourth...

Methodology for Project Schedule Acceleration Integrated with Energy Source-Based Assessment of Occupational Health and Safety Risks
DownloadFall 2022
There will always be uncertainties and hazards involved with project activities in the construction industry. Both long-term and short-term safety events reported to occupational health and safety authorities are impacted by the practice of schedule compression by crashing the project activities....
