Fall 2011
A new mechanistic approach is applied to characterizing toughness of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) in ductile fracture, introduced in double-edge-notched tensile (DENT) test. Three mechanisms were involved in the new approach, i.e. fracture surface formation, necking and shear plastic...

Spring 2013
In this thesis, ultrasonic B-scan signal processing is investigated. A B-scan displays a cross-sectional view of the test piece and defects within it. Compared to A-scan signals, B-scan images offer more reliable fault detection. Nonetheless, traditional ultrasonic signal processing methods are...

Uncertainty in Life Cycle Assessments of Well-to-Wheel Greenhouse Gas Emissions of Transportation Fuels Derived from Various Crude Oils
DownloadFall 2016
Growing concern over climate change has created pressure on the oil and gas industry to reduce their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Several life cycle assessment (LCA) studies have examined various crude oils in an attempt to determine which have the lowest and highest well-to-wheel (WTW) GHG...

Understanding the physical phenomena limiting the inkjet printed PEM water electrolyzer performance
DownloadFall 2022
Polymer electrolyte membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) are a promising technology to generate hydrogen using electricity and water. The hydrogen can be used to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases in several industrial processes, such as power grid, fertilizer industry, and transportation...
