Protocol for Optimal Size Selection of Punched Screen in Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage Operations
Download2020-01-21
Chenxi Wang, Jesus D. Montero Pallares, Mohammad Haftani, Alireza Nouri
Punched screen as a stand-alone screen is gaining more and more popularity in Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD) operations. However, the literature contains limited studies for proper aperture size selection and the performance of the punched screen. This paper aims at investigating the...

Molzahn, A. E., McNulty, V., Gallagher, E.
The purpose of this study was to describe the quality of life (QOL) of current adult day center (ADC) clients and their family caregivers in one region of Canada. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 10 ADC clients and 10 caregivers. Data analysis used a modified constant comparative...

A critical appraisal of the concept, quality of life, as used in nursing theories, is presented in a historically situated context. This approach to concept analysis was selected to illuminate the subjective, contextual, and fluid nature of the concept. Based on this review, quality of life is...

Low, G., Kalfoss, M., Molzahn, A. E.
In this study, Glick and Tripp-Reimer's (1996) Iowa model for gerontological nursing serves as a guiding framework for a descriptive exploratory study of quality of life (QOL) of older adults. Using secondary data, the authors explored whether the effects of health appraisal, morbidities, social...

Quantification of damage and its effects on the compressive strength of an advanced ceramic
Download2019-01-03
Krimsky, Erez, Ramesh, K.T., Bratcher, M., Foster, M., Hogan, James D.
An understanding of the dynamic failure of damaged ceramics is important in protection applications, where the interaction of the projectile with cracked material is a contributing factor in the overall system performance. In this paper, we investigate the effects of pre-existing internal cracks...

Quasi-static confined uniaxial compaction of granular alumina and boron carbide observing the particle size effects
Download2019-10-25
Nicewicz, Piotr, Peciar, Peter, Macho, Oliver, Sano, Tomoko, Hogan, James D.
The quasi-static confined uniaxial compaction of granular alumina and boron carbide was studied, and the effect of triaxial stress on the materials as a function of increasing particle size was observed. The average particle sizes studied for granular alumina were 170 ± 63, 230 ± 55, 330 ± 67,...

S., Sokol, Harry, Spector, Tim D., Surette, Michael G., Tannock, Gerald W., Walker, Alan W., Yassour, Moran, Walter, Jens
Whether the human fetus and the prenatal intrauterine environment (amniotic fluid and placenta) are stably colonized by microbial communities in a healthy pregnancy remains a subject of debate. Here we evaluate recent studies that characterized microbial populations in human fetuses from the...

Radial Heterojunction Solar Cell Consisting of n-type Rutile Nanowire Array Infiltrated by p-type CdTe
Download2016-09-03
We report a p-n heterojunction solid-state solar cell completely fabricated by simple and tunable solution-based processing. The solar cell comprised of p-type CdTe that was electrochemically deposited onto hydrothermally synthesized vertically oriented arrays of n-type rutile TiO2 nanowire...

Rapid monoterpene induction promotes the susceptibility of a novel host pine to mountain pine beetle colonization but not to beetle-vectored fungi
Download2017-12-01
Cale, Jonathan A, Muskens, Marlena, Najar, Ahmed, Ishangulyyvena, Guncha, Hussain, Altaf, Kanekar, Sanat S, Klutsch, Jennifer G, Taft, Spencer, Erbilgin, Nadir
Chemical induction can drive tree susceptibility to and host range expansions of attacking insects and fungi. Recently, mountain pine beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae Hopkins; MPB) has expanded its host range from its historic host lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta var. latifolia Douglas ex Loudon)...
