Cellulose reinforced high density polyethylene

Creator:: Palaniyandi, Velmurugan
Abstract:: High density polyethylene (HDPE) is a ubiquitous material with versatile properties. It is produced and used in greater volume than any other thermoplastic. HDPE is often filled with a variety of materials for various applications. Glass fiber and wood flour are two common fillers for HDPE. Recently there has been...

A heuristic algorithm for operating yard cranes over storage blocks to minimize the handling time in a container yard

Creator:: Denkaew, Weerakit
Abstract:: In container terminals, the efficiency of loading operations in a container yard highly depends on the productivity of yard cranes. In loading operation, yard cranes have to pick-up the containers which are stacked in the yard-bays to satisfy the work schedule requirement of quay crane, the equipment for loading and...

Thermal Processing of Injection-Molded Silicon Carbide

Creator:: Chinn, Richard E.
Abstract:: Silicon carbide is an important and versatile nonoxide ceramic. Powder injection molding (PIM) is a method of high-speed fabrication of complex near-net shapes of SiC and other powders. Green micro-machining (GMM) is used to extend the shaping capability of green ceramics and powder metallurgy to smaller feature sizes. Debinding--removal of...

Application of controlled thermal expansion in diffusion bonding for the high-volume microlamination of MECS devices

Creator:: Pluess, Christoph
Abstract:: Diffusion bonding has been widely used within microlamination architectures for the fabrication of Micro Energy and Chemical Systems (MECS). MECS are microsystems with the ability to process bulk amounts of fluid within highly-parallel microchannel arrays capable of accelerated heat and mass transfer. Thus far, diffusion bonding of the microchannel arrays...

A validity study for the kaizen event kick-off survey

Creator:: Mitchell, Rebecca M.
Abstract:: This study was conducted to support a research project sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF). The purpose of the NSF research project was to determine how to design kaizen events that result in both short term and long term performance improvements. One of the tools developed to evaluate the...

An internal convective heating technique for diffusion bonding highly parallel microchannel architectures

Creator:: Bose, Sumantra
Abstract:: Diffusion bonding cycle times can be a large cost factor in the production of metal microchannel devices. The challenge is to significantly minimize this cost by reducing the bonding cycle time through rapid and uniform heating and cooling within the bonding process. Heating rates in diffusion bonding processes are typically...

Investigation of the environmental impact of wind energy and supplemental energy systems using a life cycle approach

Creator:: Prempreeda, Preedanood
Abstract:: Wind energy is a promising alternative energy source due to its environmental, economic, and social benefits and, as such, has garnered public support and government incentives for its development and implementation. With the growing number of wind parks in Oregon, a life cycle assessment (LCA) study for a representative new...

Quantifying nisin adsorption behavior at pendant polyethylene oxide brush layers

Creator:: Dill, Justen K.
Abstract:: A more quantitative understanding of peptide loading and release from polyethylene oxide (PEO) brush layers will provide direction for development of new strategies for drug storage and delivery. The antimicrobial peptide nisin shows potent activity against Gram-positive bacteria including the most prevalent implant-associated pathogens, its mechanism of action minimizes the...

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...

Development and evaluation of a new formaldehyde-free wood adhesive from renewable materials for making interior plywood

Creator:: Jang, Yonghwan
Abstract:: Synthetic adhesives, such as phenol-formaldehyde (PF) resins and urea-formaldehyde (UF) resins, have dominated the wood adhesive market since they were introduced in the wood products industry. Formaldehyde, as a key component in the manufacturing of PF and UF resins, has been classified as a known human carcinogen by the International...
