Dynamics of spontaneous initial spreading and spreading of a hydrodynamically driven droplet under the influence of surrounding pressure
DownloadFall 2021
We investigate experimentally the early time dynamics of spontaneous spreading of silicone oils with various viscosities at elevated surrounding pressures. The surrounding medium pressure is increased in a monotone fashion starting from atmospheric pressure to a maximum value of 30 megapascal...

Fall 2022
Gearboxes are key components commonly employed to transfer torque and power and adjust speed in mechatronic systems, such as wind turbines, automobiles, and mining machines. Due to the harsh working environment, various faults may occur in gearboxes. Tooth cracks account for a large proportion of...

Economic and Environmental Assessment of Large-scale Electro-chemical and Flywheel Energy Storage Systems for Stationary Applications
DownloadFall 2022
There are few cost and environmental feasibility assessments of energy storage systems for utility-scale applications. The development of techno-economic and environmental performance indicators is crucial to make an informed decision on future development and deployment of energy storage...

Effect of Dispersion Method on the Thermal and Wear Properties of Graphene Nano Platelet Filler Modified Polyurethane
DownloadSpring 2020
Polyurethane is used in various applications, for example as liner for piping systems, pipelines, pressure vessels and valve trims, where it may be subjected to elevated temperature as well as high rate of erosion. At elevated temperatures, polyurethane erodes at a faster rate. In this research,...

Effect of Electrostatic Charge on the Deposition of Monodisperse Uniformly Charged Particles in Idealized Extrathoracic Airway of an Adult, Child and Infant
DownloadFall 2014
An in vitro study was performed on the effect of electrostatic charge on the deposition of monodisperse uniformly charged particles in the extrathoracic airway. An atomizer was designed and prototyped to generate particles using controlled Plateau-Rayleigh breakup, and charge via induction....

Fall 2014
Infant face and throat replicas are used in research laboratories to compare the effectiveness of different valved holding chamber and face mask designs. The use of soft face models is thought to provide a better representation of mask dead volume and face mask seal than hard face models....
