Spring 2024
Hydrogen as a fuel has the potential to reduce tailpipe carbon dioxide emissions of vehicles to near-zero, while also allowing for the generation of a hydrogen-based economy and lowering humanity's dependence upon oil. Hydrogen-diesel dual fuel combustion, where hydrogen and diesel are combusted...

Investigation of Ultrasonic Acoustic Standing Wave Separation of Particles in a Multi-wavelength Macro-scale Resonator
DownloadFall 2014
This thesis presents an investigation of macro-scale (>5mm) multi-wavelength acoustophoresis. This is a technique used for the filtration of micro-particles from the containing suspension. It uses the primary acoustic force generated by an ultrasonic acoustic pressure standing wave. Primary...

Realtime Machine Learning based In-Cycle Control of Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition
DownloadSpring 2023
Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) has the potential to significantly reduce engine out oxides of nitrogen NOx emissions, while maintaining a high fuel efficiency compared to existing lean-burn spark ignition engines. HCCI is characterized by compression induced autoignition of a lean...
