Process-based modeling for cradle-to-gate energy and carbon footprint reduction in product design

Creator:

Alsaffar, Ahmed J.

Abstract:

Interest in accounting for environmental impacts of products, processes, and systems during the design phase is increasing. Numerous studies have undertaken investigations for reducing environmental impacts across the product life cycle. Efforts have also been launched to quantify such impacts more accurately. Life cycle energy consumption and carbon footprint are...

Mechanistic aspects of fracture and fatigue in resin based dental restorative composites

Creator:

Shah, Minalben B.

Abstract:

For resin based dental restorative composites, one of the major challenges is to optimize the balance between mechanical and optical properties. Although fracture is the second leading cause of dental restorative failures, very limited mechanistic understanding exists on a microscopic level. In the present study, the fracture properties and mechanisms...

Dissertation
Wood materials and shearwalls of older light-frame residential structures

Creator:

Carroll, Cameron T.

Abstract:

Light-frame construction practices and materials have changed greatly over the past 100 years. Contemporary research has focused on modern construction; thus, we know a great deal about the behavior of modern lightframe buildings under lateral forces. However, there are many light-frame buildings that were built prior to the introduction of...
