This paper reports the feasibility of using surface mount adhesives to produce low temperature microchannel arrays in a wide variety of metals. Sheet metal embossing and chemical etching processes have been used to produce sealing bosses that eliminate channel laminae, resulting in approximately 50% material savings over traditional methods.

Gas hydrates, pervasive in continental margin sediments, are expected to release methane in
response to ocean warming, but the geographic range of dissociation and subsequent flux of methane to
the ocean are not well constrained. Sediment column thermal models based on observed water column
warming trends offshore Washington (USA) show...

There has been little empirical analysis of technical efficiency for commercial fisheries in Victoria. This study examines technical efficiency in the Victorian Abalone Fishery with an input-oriented data envelopment analysis (DEA) using panel data for the period from 1978/79 to 2009/2010. The influence of factors affecting technical efficiency is analysed...

The Lateral Lake Area is located 30 km northeast of Dryden in
Echo and Webb Townships in the District of Kenora in northwestern
Ontario. The area has been the focus of molybdenum exploration
since 1906. Most exploration and development has been centered
on the Pidgeon Prospect in Echo Township. Although,...

AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF
Paul McCarter for the degree of
Devonian carbonate rocks of the southern Hot Creek Range reflect a shift to the east of the carbonate shelf edge and a progressively deeper-water lithotope from late
Early Devonian to early Middle Devonian time. Lower Devonian mudstones of the McColley Canyon Formation were deposited on an open shelf, dolomitized, and...

In the Pacific Northwest snow is an important
natural resource. The inability to accurately measure or
monitor this resource throughout remote areas is a hindrance
to water management. ERTS-1 imagery provides the capability
for extracting a significant amount of scientific information
and data regarding snow conditions in accessible and inaccessible...

Rocks south of the Main Mantle Thrust (MMT) in Swat,
Pakistan consist predominantly of Precambrian to Paleozoic
granitic gneisses and metasedimentary rocks that represent
the deformed and metamorphosed northern margin of the Indian
subcontinent. In the Karakar Pass area the rocks are divisible into three lithologic units: the Swat granite...

Microchannel heat exchangers provide large surface area to volume ratios and accelerated heat transfer, leading to compact form factors for application in portable and distributed thermal management and waste heat recovery. The application of microchannel heat exchangers in industry has been slowed by high manufacturing costs. Therefore, efforts are being...
