Tensile Properties of Flax FRP Composites
(6th Asia-Pacific Conference on FRP in Structures, 2017-07-19)In this study, the effects of the polymer matrix properties and shape of test specimens on mechanical properties of flax fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are examined. A total of 30 flax FRP coupons were fabricated ... -
Tensile Properties of PET FRP with Bio-resin Polymer
(Canadian Society for Civil Engineering, 2021-05-26)This study analyses the mechanical behaviour of polyethylene terephthalate fiber-reinforced polymer (PET FRP) made with a bio-resin polymer matrix. The utilized bio-resin is furfuryl alcohol mixed with phthaloyl dichloride ... -

Theory, tools, and multidisciplinary applications for tracing groundwater fluxes from temperature profiles
(Wiley, 2019-01)Quantifying groundwater fluxes to and from deep aquifers or shallow sediment is a critical task faced by researchers and practitioners from many environmental science disciplines including hydrology, hydrogeology, ecology, ... -
Three-point Bending of Sandwich Beams with FRP Facing and PP Honeycomb Core
(Canadian Society for Civil Engineering, 2021-05-26)In this study, two sets of sandwich beams were tested in three-point bending. The sandwich panels were fabricated in a wet layup process. The facing component was made of either polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fiber-reinforced ... -

Two-dimensional metallo-dielectric photonic crystals embedded in anodic porous alumina for optical wavelengths
(AIP, 2004-08/23)A theoretical study is presented for hexagonal lattice metallic pillar photonic crystals in anodic porous alumina with a lattice constant of 500 nm. The objective of the investigation is to design a two-dimensional ... -
Using a geotextile with flocculated filter backwash water and its impact on aluminium concentrations
(Elsevier, 2018)The use of geotextiles (i.e. geotextile tubes) in wastewater treatment applications is ever increasing. This paper examines the potential of using a geotextile to improve upon the treatment of aluminium present in a filter ... -
Using Heat to Trace Vertical Water Fluxes in Sediment Experiencing Concurrent Tidal Pumping and Groundwater Discharge
(Wiley/American Geophysical Union, 2021-02)Heat has been widely applied to trace groundwater-surface water exchanges in inland environments, but it is infrequently applied in coastal sediment where head oscillations induce periodicity in water flux magnitude/direction ... -
Using TDA to Partially Replace Coarse Aggregates in Concrete Mixtures
(Canadian Society for Civil Engineering (CSCE), 2019-06-12)Applications utilizing rubberized concrete have grown substantially in the last decade as an answer for the scrape tires stockpiling problems and its associated environmental issues. Though rubberized concrete mixtures ... -
Variation of horizontal in situ stress with depth for long-term performance evaluation of the Deep Geological Repository project access shaft
(Elsevier, 2018)A site characterization program was carried out for a proposed Deep Geological Repository (DGR) project for Ontario Power Generation's (OPG) low- and intermediate-level nuclear waste repository near Kincardine, Ontario. ... -
Vertical nanowire light-emitting diode
(American Institute of Physics Inc, 2004)We report room-temperature, white-color electroluminescence in vertically oriented ZnO nanowires. Excitonic luminescence around 380 nm is observed as a shoulder on a broader defect-related band covering all of the visible ... -
Vibration Analysis of Pole-vaulting via Mathematical Modeling
(2020-08-04)This project studied the factors including the weight of athlete (𝑚) and stiffness of the pole ( 𝑘) that can influence the efficiency of the energy conversion. The efficiency refers to the percentage of initial kinetic ... -
Vibration Characteristics of Multi-Wall Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNT) Reinforced 3D-Fiber Metal Laminates (3D-FML)
(11th Canadian-International Conference on Composites (CANCOM2019), 2019-07-24)Uncontrolled vibration in mechanical systems results in undesirable noise and may cause the eventual mechanical failure of the system. This paper explores the parameters that govern and affect the frequency response of a ... -
VIBRATION CHARACTERISTICS OF THERMALLY CYCLED GRAPHENE NANOPLATELET (GNP) REINFORCED 3D-FIBER METAL LAMINATES (3D-FML)
(Canadian Machinery Vibration Association (CMVA), 2019-10-30)Harsh environmental conditions may cause materials to degrade and eventually fail, or even worse, it can be coupled with undesirable vibrations in mechanical systems, resulting in premature failure of the system. Such ... -
