▼ Aluminum 7xxx series alloys have been a major focus for lightweight automotive structural components to achieve the targeted weight reductions by auto industries and, in turn, to increase the vehicle fuel efficiency. AA 7xxx series wrought alloy components have been widely used by the aerospace and automotive industries for many decades due to their low density and high strength. However, although near net shape casting of these alloys has many benefits versus wrought alloys; this processing route has been a challenge for the researchers and the auto industry because of limitations due to castability issues such as like hot tearing and die soldering. One possible mitigation strategy involves the addition of iron (Fe) as one of the major alloying element and then subsequently optimizing the alloy chemistry and solidification parameters in terms of die soldering. The objective of this thesis is to determine the microstructural evolution of any Al-Fe intermetallic phases with respect to cooling rate during solidification for a range of AA 7xxx series alloy compositions. Fe was added at three different levels in a total of nine alloy composition developed from a Taguchi experimental matrix based on the interaction of three composition levels for four alloying elements. The alloys were cast using a custom built casting rig while the cooling rates were measured along the length of a directionally solidifying sample. The thermocouple measurements were analyzed to determine the velocity of the solid/liquid interface, overall cooling rate and thermal arrest points for later correlation to variations in the microstructural development of any Al-Fe intermetallic phase particles present in the experimental alloys. Metallographic samples were taken at locations with iv known cooling rates to determine the resultant microstructure. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-Ray spectroscopy (EDS) were performed to obtain elemental analyses of the Al-Fe intermetallic phases for present in the samples. The Fe maps obtained by EDS were processed and analyzed using Image-J software to determine the size distribution and area fraction of the Al-Fe intermetallic phases as a function of alloy composition and solidification rates. Also, a regression analysis was used to develop a statistical model to predict the variation of intermetallic particle size and area fraction of the Al-Fe intermetallic phases as a function of alloy composition and cooling rate. Based on the experimental investigation and analysis of the nine Al 7xxx-Fe alloys the results can be summarized as follows: (1) Cooling rate has a strong influence on the chemistry and morphology of the Fe intermetallic particles: It was determined that the dominant intermetallic species changes from the equilibrium Al3Fe to the metastable Al6Fe alloys for cooling rates in excess of approximately10 °C/s. (2) Alloy cooling rate does significantly affect the area fraction of the Fe… Advisors/Committee Members: McDermid, Joseph, Mechanical Engineering.

▼ Multiple-point statistics (MPS) is a rising method for the characterization of heterogeneity. Its strength and its Achilles' heel lie in the training image, which is the conceptual model of geological heterogeneity on which MPS simulations are based. Indeed, on one side the use of the training image allows great flexibility when for example for bi-dimensional (2D) simulation a training image can be provided by a photo-mosaic of an outcrop or by a sketch drawn by a geologist. On the other side, in three-dimensions (3D) a training image is rarely available. When the information provided by a 3D image is not accessible, then one must somehow use probabilistic information which comes from lower dimen- sion sources, like for example 2D training images. If different 2D sources of information are available, one possibility is to aggregate the corresponding probability information. This problem is very general and several methods exist. Two main categories of methods are distinguished: those based on the sum (convex) and those based on the multiplication (non-convex). When the weighting factors can be determined from some training data, the best reliabilities are obtained with the Beta-transformed linear pool and the Bor- diey's formula. Instead, when training data are not accessible, reasonably reliable results can be obtained with the Bordley's formula and with the Markovian-type categorical prediction. One convex method and one non-convex method are tested for the ag- gregation of information coming from 2D training images. For the tests, one 3D image of a micro-computed tomography of a sandstone and one 3D realization of a fluvio-glacial environment are used as references. Two di- mensional slices of the reference 3D images are used as training images for providing the information to be aggregated with the methods cited above, but also for the simulation with two novel method proposed here. One of this methods is baaed on sequential 2D simulations conditioned by the data computed during the previous simulation steps (method s2Dcd). With this last method it is possible to obtain , without the use of a 3D training im- age, 3D simulations which can be considered close to the reference images according to most comparison criteria considered. Moreover, while the re- sults obtained with the method s2Dcd are close to the results obtained with a MPS simulation which make use of a 3D training image, the CPU time required by s2Dcd is from two to four orders of magnitude smaller than with a traditional 3D simulation. This computational efficiency is a step forward for the introduction of MPS in frameworks which require a great number of realizations in a reasonably restricted amount of time, like for example Monte Carlo methods or stochastic inverse problems. Other techniques exists to deal with the simulation in 3D when a 3D training image is not available. One of this techniques, developed in this thesis' framework, is applied for the simulation of the image of the fluvio- glacial aquifer analog used as… Advisors/Committee Members: Philippe (Dir.), Julien (Codir.).

▼ The present work explores vibrational Raman spectroscopy. Vibrational Raman and vibrational infrared are the most commonly used spectroscopies for detection and identification of molecules with their vibrational fingerprint. Under certain conditions, molecules display unique florescence and Raman scattering behavior when they are close to metal nanostructures sustaining localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPR), giving rise to surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and surface-enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS). The utilization of LSPR in metallic nanoparticles, in particular silver and gold nanostructures, is a remarkable means of improving the efficiency of Raman scattering enhancing optical signals in SERS and SERRS. Correspondingly, the fabrication and characterization of silver and gold island films are first presented, and SERS signals enhancement of an organic dye on these metal nanostructured films are demonstrated. The excitations are characterized by UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, while the morphology is revealed by atomic force microscopy (AFM). To control the surface coverage of the metal nanostructures, the Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) technique is used to coat the SERS substrate with monomolecular layers of several target systems, such as dyes and phospholipids. The most important results in this work are in the field of single molecule detection (SMD) using two spectroscopic approaches: LB-SERRS and LB-SERS. LB-SERRS improves the scattering efficiency from the electronic resonances (resonance Raman) of dye using silver island film with a plasmon absorption overlapping the molecular absorption. Several experiments are designed to the statistical average of LB-SERRS spectra, and the statistical breakdown observed in spectral characteristics when SMD is approached. The development of other SERS-substrates was attempted to control plasmonic using LSPR. A convenient method was pursued using a self-assembly of silver colloidal nanoparticles on a silanized glass surface. The SERS spectral evidence is presented to validate the substrate development. Surface-enhanced florescence (SEF) was also used for single molecule studies. Shell-isolated nanoparticles (SHINs) are used to produce SEF that named SHINEF. Using mixed LB monolayers of perylene tetracarboxylic (PTCD) derivatives, we report single molecule fluorescence and single molecule SERRS. In addition, overtones and combinations of fundamental vibrational modes are seen with atypical relative intensity in the LB-SERRS spectra of PTCDs.

▼ We begin this research by asking "can we better estimate reserves in unconventional reservoirs using Bayes' theorem?" To attempt to answer this question, we obtained data for 68 wells in the Greater Core of the Eagle Ford Shale, Texas. As process, we eliminated the wells that did not have enough data, that did not show a production decline and/or wells that had too much data noise (this left us with 8 wells for analysis). We next performed decline curve analysis (DCA) using the Modified Hyperbolic (MH) and Power-Law Exponential (PLE) models (the two most common DCA models), consisting in user-guided analysis software. Then, the Bayesian paradigm was implemented to calibrate the same two models on the same set of wells. The primary focus of the research was the implementation of the Bayesian paradigm on the 8 well data set. We first performed a "best fit" parameter estimation using least squares optimization, which provided an optimized set of parameters for the two decline curve models. This was followed by using the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) integration of the Bayesian posterior function for each model, which provided a full probabilistic description of its parameters. This allowed for the simulation of a number of likely realizations of the decline curves, from which first order statistics were computed to provide a confidence metric on the calibration of each model as applied to the production data of each well. Results showed variation on the calibration of the MH and PLE models. The forward models (MH and PLE) either over- or underestimate the reserves compared with the Bayesian calibrations, proving that the Bayesian paradigm was able to capture a more accurate trend of the data and thus able to determine more accurate estimates of reserves. In industry, the same decline curve models are used for unconventional wells as for conventional wells, even though we know that the same models may not apply. Based on the proposed results, we believe that Bayesian inference yields more accurate estimates of reserves for unconventional reservoirs than deterministic DCA methods. Moreover, it provides a measure of confidence on the prediction of production as as function of varying data and varying decline curve models.

▼ Power consumption limits the maximum achievable performance of modern processors. Accurate power modeling is an essential step in both mobile and high-end processors. Large-scale transistor-level power modeling is computationally very challenging. As a result high-level power modeling is performed at the expense of accuracy. Pre-silicon power tools need to be complemented with post-silicon characterization to determine the true power consumption of circuits. Post-silicon power maps are developed during debugging and characterization phases of the first-silicon, and then applied to improve the design during re-spins and for future designs. Post-silicon power results can also improve the accuracy of power and thermal models. We provide fundamentals for post-silicon power validation using captured thermal infrared emissions from back-side of integrated circuits. We identify challenges associated with thermal-to-power inversion: (1) spatial heat diffusion which blurs underlying power maps, and (2) measurement noise in thermal imaging systems. We address these challenges by devising optimization formulation that incorporates Tikhonov filtering. To further increase the accuracy of power mapping, we propose to use AC-based thermography which reduces the impact of flicker noise and spatial heat diffusion. The average power mapping error reduced from 40% using DC-based method to about 8.5% using the proposed AC-based method. A programmable circuit of micro heaters is implemented, and used to validate our methods and to quantify the improvements in power mapping attained from regularization techniques and AC-based methodology. Using our novel power mapping framework, we present versatile applications of post-silicon power mapping. First, we power map a soft processor embedded in a FPGA chip, and a real multi-core processor using DC-based techniques, where we decompose the power-per-block into dynamic and leakage power. We demonstrate methods for utilizing AC framework on real processors. Second, we propose alternate way of post-silicon power mapping with reconstructed thermal maps using measurements from on-chip thermal sensors in-place of infrared imaging, which reduces the cost of post-silicon power mapping drastically. To reconstruct the thermal maps, we utilize full thermal characterization methods based on various frequency-domain techniques. Third, we utilize the high resolution thermal and power maps to formulate high-sensitivity hardware Trojan detection techniques, which are scalable to large circuits.

▼ The key factor for the miniaturization of piezoelectric devices is the power density, which is limited by the heat generation or internal losses. With accelerating the commercialization of piezoelectric actuators and transducers, it becomes more and more significant to clarify the loss phenomenology, reduce the hysteresis losses, and increase the mechanical quality factor to enhance the efficiency and performance. There are three loss components for piezoelectric vibrators, i.e., dielectric, elastic and piezoelectric losses. These loss factors are related with mechanical quality factors, which are the figure of merit of the material or device in the sense of efficiency. In order to obtain the mechanical quality factor Qm, IEEE standard provided the measurement method using the resonance and antiresonance frequencies. However, this characterization assumes that the Q value at resonance is equal to the one at antiresonance all the time, which is not consistent with experiment results. For practical materials there is sometimes a big difference between the mechanical quality factors of the resonance (QA) and the antiresonance (QB), and in most cases higher QB can be observed. Therefore, in recent several years we are focusing on a new resonance AC drive methodology to measure the admittance curve accurately around both the resonance and antiresonance peaks for piezoelectric materials, from which QA and QB can be derived by the 3dB method. Various piezoelectric materials were characterized with this technique. Further, the equations were derived showing the relations between quality factors and loss factors by the complex analysis of the admittance/ impedance expressions for specific piezoelectric vibrators. Using QA, QB, and the electromechanical coupling factor k, we can obtain three types of loss factors precisely. Among various vibration modes of piezoelectric vibrators, we focus on k31, kt, k33, kp, and k15 modes, which cover all the 20 parameters of the ferroelectric material with ∞mm/6mm crystal symmetry, i.e. piezoelectric ceramic. Plus some other derivations using the fundamental correlations, 20 loss factors can be obtained for all parameters. Using this technique the piezoelectric loss factor is confirmed to be comparable to dielectric and elastic losses and it is the factor that determines whether QB is larger than QA, though it was previously neglected by most researchers. After getting the full loss matrices, the loss anisotropy was accordingly discussed, and the extensive loss factor was verified to be smaller than the intensive one. This methodology is an essential supplement to the current IEEE standard on piezoelectric characterization. The simplicity and accuracy of this technique are very attractive, and hopefully this proposal will be widely accepted as a standard in the piezoelectric community in the future. The inclusion of three loss factors is important for the admittance analysis and thermal simulation of piezoelectric devices in the “finite element method” software. Furthermore, taking…

▼ Software Defined Radios (SDRs) are systems in which components such as filters, modulators, demodulators, etc., typically implemented in hardware are instead implemented in software. Thus, SDR systems shift signal processing from analog to digital domain. The signal processing is performed in reconfigurable devices like General Purpose Processors (GPP) or Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA). The resulting flexibility of SDR systems brings in many advantages to wireless communications such as improved interoperability, adaptation capability and more future-proof hardware. Various prototype/laboratory friendly hardware are available such as Universal Software Radio Peripherals (USRPs), developed by Ettus Research, which in combination with software interfaces such as GNU Radio can be used to design and implement a Software Defined Radio(SDR) system. This has in turn enabled numerous research opportunities and advancements in field of wireless communication. However one major drawback of these simple USRP devices is that they are un-calibrated in terms of power or voltage and hence give the results in relative terms/counts. This poses a disadvantage in real world scenarios where parameters such as power measured in milliwatts or dBm, are used to design, implement, and test devices and systems and to collect and interpret experimental results. Lack of connectivity with these metrics leads to the USRP devices being confined to proof of concept implementation and demonstrations, and limits their utility for experimentation. In this thesis an attempt has been made to calibrate the USRPN210 (with WBX daughter board) devices and derive some calibration factors that would help relate the experimental results obtained from the USRP and GNU Radio combination to real world metrics. This also makes the result-set clearer and easily understandable. Several experiments were conducted to understand and characterize the performance of the USRP under different conditions. Experiments such as determination of 1-dB compression point, Third order intercept point helped understand the linearity range of the device under transmitter and receiver operations. The 3rd order input intercept point for USRPN210 device with WBX board with calibration was found to be around 0.25 dBm, which is closer to the expected value of 0 dBm at 400 MHz. Amplitude and frequency stability tests over the operational frequency range of the daughter board helped to note if change in frequency produced any variation in the received or transmitted power. Also variation with respect to gain helped derive a reference table for transmitted power, which could be used in for future experiments. Conducting these experiments over a sample of 10 USRPs helped in obtaining standardized values and benchmarking them. The factors obtained were also used in some experiments like path loss modeling, position location estimation in order to determine their effectiveness and impact on such applications. Although, these factors obtained may not be directly applicable to… Advisors/Committee Members: Dietrich, Carl B.

▼ In recent decades, magnetorheological elastomer (MRE) has been widely used in engineering applications as vibration absorbers or isolators due to its field-dependent property. Thus, researches on the correlations of the variables and MRE behaviors are increasingly needed. This study aims to characterize and simulate magnetorheological behavior of elastomer filled with carbonyl iron and NdFeB particles under uniaxial tension, compression, and pure shear modes. First, tensile tests were performed for both isotropic and anisotropic magnetorheological elastomer (MRE) with carbonyl iron particle (CI), under the magnetic field of a pair of permanent magnets, to observe the feasibility of a portable, lightweight setup without the need of power supply. It turned out that the MR effect was apparent but not significant enough for real application. Also, there was a negative MR effect for anisotropic MRE when the magnetic flux is vertical to the particle chains. The compression test showed that Neodymium magnet powder (NdFeB) filled specimen always had higher compressive strength than the CI specimen. The outcome helped to the complementation of hard particle MRE characterization. A systematic shear test was conducted on isotropic CI and NdFeB MRE specimens. The shear test was divided into two parts. The first part observed the large-strain behavior of each specimen under a steady magnetic flux; 0, 200, 400, and 600 mT magnetic flux was applied during this part. NdFeB MRE specimens showed very little change in shear strength under different flux, while CI MRE was influenced substantially. The second part is conducted under dynamic flux ranging from -600 mT to 600 mT with small oscillation displacement. It turned out the hard MRE specimens had far more significant storage modulus than its counterpart. The result of the shear test proved that hard MRE has lower magnetization saturation and high storage modulus, and it is now further characterized. COMSOL simulation for tensile testing showed fair agreement with the experimental outcomes. Further improvements were proposed to make the model practical for future MRE studies.

▼ The present work explores vibrational Raman spectroscopy. Vibrational Raman and vibrational infrared are the most commonly used spectroscopies for detection and identification of molecules with their vibrational fingerprint. Under certain conditions, molecules display unique florescence and Raman scattering behavior when they are close to metal nanostructures sustaining localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPR), giving rise to surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and surface-enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS). The utilization of LSPR in metallic nanoparticles, in particular silver and gold nanostructures, is a remarkable means of improving the efficiency of Raman scattering enhancing optical signals in SERS and SERRS. Correspondingly, the fabrication and characterization of silver and gold island films are first presented, and SERS signals enhancement of an organic dye on these metal nanostructured films are demonstrated. The excitations are characterized by UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, while the morphology is revealed by atomic force microscopy (AFM). To control the surface coverage of the metal nanostructures, the Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) technique is used to coat the SERS substrate with monomolecular layers of several target systems, such as dyes and phospholipids. The most important results in this work are in the field of single molecule detection (SMD) using two spectroscopic approaches: LB-SERRS and LB-SERS. LB-SERRS improves the scattering efficiency from the electronic resonances (resonance Raman) of dye using silver island film with a plasmon absorption overlapping the molecular absorption. Several experiments are designed to the statistical average of LB-SERRS spectra, and the statistical breakdown observed in spectral characteristics when SMD is approached. The development of other SERS-substrates was attempted to control plasmonic using LSPR. A convenient method was pursued using a self-assembly of silver colloidal nanoparticles on a silanized glass surface. The SERS spectral evidence is presented to validate the substrate development. Surface-enhanced florescence (SEF) was also used for single molecule studies. Shell-isolated nanoparticles (SHINs) are used to produce SEF that named SHINEF. Using mixed LB monolayers of perylene tetracarboxylic (PTCD) derivatives, we report single molecule fluorescence and single molecule SERRS. In addition, overtones and combinations of fundamental vibrational modes are seen with atypical relative intensity in the LB-SERRS spectra of PTCDs.

Biotehničke nauke - Fitopatologija / Biotechnical Science - Phytopathology

U periodu od 2007. do 2011. godine na 61 lokalitetu gajenja tikava u Srbiji utvrđeno je stalno prisustvo virusa sa visokim intenzitetom zaraze. Učestalost virusne zaraze se po godinama mijenjala i kretala od 30-50% u 2007. godini, preko izuzetno visokih 80% u epidemijskoj 2008. godini, da bi tokom naredne dvije godine bila konstantna i kretala se oko 40%. U posljednjoj godini ispitivanja zaraza je ponovo dostigla čak 60%. Serološkim testiranjem 1100 uzoraka sakupljenih sa 19 vrsta, sorti i varijeteta tikava detektovano je prisustvo tri virusa: virusa žutog mozaika cukinija (Zucchini yellow mosaic virus, ZYMV), virusa mozaika lubenice (Watermelon mosaic virus, WMV) i virusa mozaika krastavca (Cucumber mosaic virus, CMV). Dodatnim testiranjem simptomatičnih uzoraka detektovano je prisustvo virusa žutila tikava perzistentno prenosivog vašima (Cucurbit aphid-borne yellows virus, CABYV), što predstavlja prvi nalaz ovog virusa u Srbiji i virusa bronzavosti paradajza (Tomato spotted wilt virus, TSWV), što je prvi nalaz ovog virusa na tikvama u Srbiji, ali i prvi nalaz u prirodnoj infekciji na Cucurbita maxima u svijetu. Najzastupljeniji virus tokom pet godina ispitivanja bio je ZYMV. Tokom prve dvije godine najčešće su bile detektovane miješane infekcije, a u poslednje tri godine pojedinačne. U okviru ovih istraživanja dokazano je prenošenje ZYMV sjemenom Cucurbita pepo var. styriaca, C. maxima i C. moschata. Utvrđena je zaraženost jednogodišnjih i višegodišnjih korovskih biljaka, koje su prisutne u vrijeme zasnivanja usjeva tikava i u početnim fazama vegetacije, sa ZYMV, WMV, CMV i TSWV. Najzastupljeniji je bio TSWV, a njegovo prisustvo je dokazano u osam različitih korovskih vrsta, sljedeći po zastupljenosti je bio CMV, dokazan u sedam vrsta korova, dok su ZYMV i WMV bili slični po zastupljenosti, a dokazani su u pet, odnosno četiri korovske vrste. Pokazan je visok diverzitet biljnih vaši koje posjećuju usjeve tikava kroz determinaciju 57 taksona. Najzastupljenije vrste vaši bile su Aphis fabae, Anoecia corni, Aphis gossypii, Myzus persicae i Acyrthosiphon pisum. Najveći diverzitet i najveća brojnost vrsta vaši bila je u prvim nedjeljama po nicanju biljaka. Detekcija i identifikacija do nivoa vrste svih prouzrokovača virusnih oboljenja na tikvama u Srbiji potvrđena je primjenom RT-PCR metode i odgovarajućih specifičnih prajmera i sekvencioniranjem. Fenotipska varijabilnost i krug domaćina za ZYMV, WMV i CMV ispitivani su primjenom biotesta na ukupno 45 test biljaka...

▼ Reliable design of gas and/or steam injection for enhanced oil recovery requires compositional reservoir simulation, in which phase behavior of reservoir fluids is represented by an equation of state (EOS). Various methods for reservoir fluid characterization using an EOS have been proposed in the literature. Conventional characterization methods addressed the challenge of the reliable prediction of the condensation/vaporization mechanisms in gas injection processes. It is even more challenging to characterize reservoir fluids for multiphase behavior consisting of three hydrocarbon phases. Complex multiphase behavior was observed experimentally for many gas floods. The importance of considering multiphase behavior in gas flooding simulation was also demonstrated in the literature. However, no systematic method has been proposed, especially for three-phase characterization. The main objective of this research is to develop a reliable method for multiphase fluid characterization using an EOS. The Peng-Robinson EOS is used with the van der Waals mixing rules in this research. The fluid types considered are gas condensate, volatile oil, black oil, heavy oil, and bitumen. The most important difference from the conventional methods is that, in this research, reservoir fluids are characterized by perturbation of the EOS model that has been calibrated for n-alkanes, in the direction of increasing level of aromaticity. This methodology is referred to as perturbation from n-alkanes (PnA), and used consistently throughout the dissertation. The experimental data required for the characterization methods presented in this dissertation are the saturation pressure and liquid densities at a given temperature, in addition to compositional information. Other types of experimental data, such as minimum miscibility pressures, liquid dropout curves, and three-phase envelopes, are used to test the predictive capability of the PR EOS models resulting from the PnA method. First, the PnA method is applied to simpler phase behavior that involves only two phases of vapor and liquid. The Peng-Robinson EOS is calibrated for vapor pressures and liquid densities for n-alkanes from C7 to C100. Two different characterization methods are developed for two-phase characterization using the PnA method. In one of them, fluid characterization is performed by adjusting critical pressure, critical temperature, and acentric factor. In the other, fluids are characterized by directly adjusting the attraction and covolume parameters for each pseudocomponent. Then, the PnA method is extended to three phases. Unlike for two phases, the Peng-Robinson EOS is calibrated for three-phase data measured for n-alkane/n-alkane and CO2/n-alkane binaries. A new set of binary interaction parameters (BIPs) is developed for these binaries, and applied for reservoir fluid characterization. The PnA method applied for two and three phases results in three different methods of fluid characterization. They are individually tested for many different reservoir fluids to demonstrate…

A poliploidia tem sido um importante mecanismo de destaque na história evolutiva das plantas e outros eucariotos. A ocorrência disseminada de poliplóides na natureza sugere que possa existir uma função para a sobrevivência e colonização em novos ambientes. No entanto, até agora foram poucos os estudos que exploraram esses fenômenos em espécies de Eucalyptus. Neste trabalho foram caracterizadas e comparadas 25 plantas tetraplóides, 25 diplóides pós contato com colchicina e 12 diplóides sem contato com colchicina de Eucalyptus dunnii em casa de vegetação. Foram medidas as alterações morfológicas por um período de seis meses. Concluiu-se que o número de ramos, dimensões de folhas (comprimento, largura e pecíolo), frequência de estômatos e comprimento de fibras mostraram diferenças significativas entre plantas diplóides e tetraplóides. Embora o número de galhos tenha diminuído em plantas tetraplóides, as plantas testadas não apresentaram diferenças significativas na altura e diâmetro. Estes resultados demonstraram que existem diferenças morfológicas entre plantas diplóides e tetraplóides de Eucalyptus dunnii e que estas diferenças podem ser usadas para facilitar a identificação de plantas tetraplóides recentemente produzidas.

Polyploidy has been an important mechanism in the plant evolution and other eukaryotes. The widespread occurrence of polyploid in nature suggest that there may be a function for survival and colonization of new environments. However, so far there are a very few studies that have explored these phenomena in Eucalyptus species. In this work were characterized and compared 25 tetraploid plants, 25 diploid after contact with colchicine and 12 diploid without contact with colchicine of Eucalyptus dunnii under greenhouse conditions. Morphological changes were measured for a period of six months. It was concluded that the number of branches, leaf area (length, width and petiole), frequency of stomata and fibre length showed significant differences between diploid and tetraploid plants. Although the number of branches has decreased in tetraploid plants and the plants tested showed no significant differences in height. These results demonstrated that there are morphological differences between diploid and tetraploid Eucalyptus and that these differences may be used to facilitate identification of newly produced tetraploid plants.

The protection and management of valuable Earth orbits and operational satellites for military, commercial and research objectives is widely recognised as a task of urgency and complexity. A critical component of this task is the tracking, characterization and identification of these active satellites as well as the space debris objects that pose a threat to them. As such advances in methods and technologies to improve these functions are constantly being investigated. One such broad method being employed to enhance space situational awareness (SSA) is the analysis of sunlight reflected from Earth-orbiting satellites. There are a number of studies that have focussed on studying variations in the intensity to learn more about a satellite???s operational status and activity however there is very little research on how the polarization of the reflected light could be used to gain additional knowledge about the reflecting body. To understand the utility of doing so as a means of characterizing satellites and space debris objects, an experiment was designed and conducted to gain insight into the trends of relative reflective polarimetric behaviors of some common spacecraft construction materials. For this thesis, five material samples were studied: two types of triple-junction photovoltaic cells, a bare 6061-T6 aluminum panel and a white-coated aluminum panel. The samples were mounted on a goniometer in which the illumination and reflection angles could be precisely controlled. The samples were then illuminated with a collimated unpolarised white light meant to simulate the Sun. The reflected light from the sample was then analysed using a dichroic linear polariser and a charge-coupled device (CCD) sensitive to optical wavelength light. From these measurements, the Stokes parameters were determined and the degree of linear polarisation and angle of polarisation calculated. The resulting values were plotted to allow a qualitative assessment of the trends in the polarimetric characteristics of each material with respect to illumination and observation geometries. The findings from this research project yielded two significant outcomes. First, the results provide a general understanding of how the polarisation trends of the reflected light vary as the illumination and observational geometry is changed. Second, the polarisation trends differed between samples for a given illumination and observational geometry. It can be concluded from these results that studying the polarimetric characteristics of light reflected from resident space objects can aid in their characterization and ultimately contribute to the advancement of gaining and maintaining SSA.

▼ This thesis is divided in to 9 chapters and deals with the modification of TiO2 for various applications include photocatalysis, thermal reaction, photovoltaics and non-linear optics. Chapter 1 involves a brief introduction of the topic of study. An introduction to the applications of modified titania systems in various fields are discussed concisely. Scope and objectives of the present work are also discussed in this chapter. Chapter 2 explains the strategy adopted for the synthesis of metal, nonmetal co-doped TiO2 systems. Hydrothermal technique was employed for the preparation of the co-doped TiO2 system, where Ti[OCH(CH3)2]4, urea and metal nitrates were used as the sources for TiO2, N and metals respectively. In all the co-doped systems, urea to Ti[OCH(CH3)2]4 was taken in a 1:1 molar ratio and varied the concentration of metals. Five different co-doped catalytic systems and for each catalysts, three versions were prepared by varying the concentration of metals. A brief explanation of physico-chemical techniques used for the characterization of the material was also presented in this chapter. This includes X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Raman Spectroscopy, FTIR analysis, Thermo Gravimetric Analysis, Energy Dispersive X-ray Analysis (EDX), Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM), UV-Visible Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy (UV-Vis DRS), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), BET Surface Area Measurements and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS). Chapter 3 contains the results and discussion of characterization techniques used for analyzing the prepared systems. Characterization is an inevitable part of materials research. Determination of physico-chemical properties of the prepared materials using suitable characterization techniques is very crucial to find its exact field of application. It is clear from the XRD pattern that photocatalytically active anatase phase dominates in the calcined samples with peaks at 2θ values around 25.4°, 38°, 48.1°, 55.2° and 62.7° corresponding to (101), (004), (200), (211) and (204) crystal planes (JCPDS 21-1272) respectively. But in the case of Pr-N-Ti sample, a new peak was observed at 2θ = 30.8° corresponding to the (121) plane of the polymorph brookite. There are no visible peaks corresponding to dopants, which may be due to their low concentration or it is an indication of the better dispersion of impurities in the TiO2. Crystallite size of the sample was calculated from Scherrer equation byusing full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the (101) peak of the anatase phase. Crystallite size of all the co-doped TiO2 was found to be lower than that of bare TiO2 which indicates that the doping of metal ions having higher ionic radius into the lattice of TiO2 causes some lattice distortion which suppress the growth of TiO2 nanoparticles. The structural identity of the prepared system obtained from XRD pattern is further confirmed by Raman spectra measurements. Anatase has six Raman active modes. Band gap of the co-doped system was calculated using Kubelka-Munk equation and that was found to…

Understanding the variables affecting flotation efficiency and how valuable minerals are lost to the tailings gives metallurgists an advantage in their attempts to increase efficiency by designing operations to target the areas of greatest potential value. A successful, accurate evaluation of lost minerals in the tailings and appropriate solutions to improve flotation efficiency can save millions of dollars in the effective utilization of our mineral resources. In this dissertation research, an attempt has been made to understand the reasons for the loss of valuable mineral particles in the tailings from Kennecott Utah Copper ores. Possibilities include liberation, particle aggregation (slime coating) and surface chemistry issues associated with the flotation separation. This research generally consisted of three main aspects. The first part involved laboratory flotation experiments and factors, which affect the flotation efficiency. Results of flotation testing are reported that several factors such as mineral exposure/liberation and slime coating and surface oxidation strongly affect the flotation efficiency. The second part of this dissertation research was to develop a rapid scan dual energy (DE) methodology using 2D radiography to identify, isolate, and prepare lost sulfide mineral particles with the advantages of simple sample preparation, short analysis time, statistically reliable accuracy and confident identification. The third part of this dissertation research was concerned with detailed characterization of lost particles including such factors as liberation, slime coating, and surface chemistry characteristics using advanced analytical techniques and instruments. Based on the results from characterization, the extent to which these factors contribute to the loss of sulfide mineral particles in the tailings were determined.

▼ A detailed laboratory study of sandstone samples from outcrops and conventional core samples from the Maastrichtian-Paleocene Scollard-age fluvial strata in the Western Canada foredeep was undertaken to investigate the reservoir characteristics, burial depth history, and sandstone diagenesis. The sandstones are predominantly litharenites and sublitharenites, which accumulated in a variety of fluvial environments. The porosity of the sandstones is both syn-depositional and diagenetic in origin. The potential of a sandstone to serve as a reservoir for producible hydrocarbons is strongly related to the sandstone’s diagenetic history. Detailed study of the distribution of authigenic minerals of the Scollard sequence suggests that the diversities in the pattern distribution of authigenic clay minerals in the regions are not random but they coincide with the burial depth of these strata and has a well-defined relation to the sequence stratigraphic framework The general absence of dickite, coupled with limited conversion of smectite into illite in the Scollard sandstones, suggests crystallization at a depth less than 1.5 km. In contrast, the occurrence of blocky dickite, fibrous illite and chlorite in the Coalspur and Willow Creek sandstones, coupled with albitized feldspars and quartz cement, suggests that sandstones there underwent a maximum burial depth greater than 3 km. It has been observed that kaolin mineral content increases in sandstones lying below subaerial unconformities, which mark the most significant stratigraphic hiatuses and hence the sequence boundaries in fully fluvial successions. This study demonstrates the effects of burial depth and paleoclimate on pore-water chemistry, which in turn, influenced the mineralogy and the distributions of authigenic minerals in the sandstones. The δ13C and δ18O compositions of pedogenic carbonate nodules from the Willow Creek Formation associated with the red shale host sediments have been used as a paleoclimate and paleoenvironmental proxy. The isotopic composition of nodules suggests that these formed during drier conditions when C3 vegetation prevailed at the site. The predominance of smectite and illite in fines and the poor floral content point to a low seasonal rainfall in a semi-arid climatic environment.

▼ Dynamic reservoir characterization of large three dimensional earth models has become an increasingly important topic in recent years. Conventional finite difference reservoir simulation may not always be the optimal choice in such applications. Alternative methods such as the streamline method and the Fast Marching Method (FMM) could be advantageous in many cases. A comprehensive study to extend these methods to more complex grids is both theoretically interesting and practically beneficial. The ability to use complex grids greatly increases the applicability of these methods, for example, to model complex geologic structures, horizontal and multilateral wellbores, and complex hydraulic/natural fractures. We present a comprehensive study of various velocity interpolation methods in polygons. These methods extend the widely used velocity interpolation algorithms, such as the Pollock?s algorithm, to more complex geometries such as perpendicular bisection (PEBI) grids, unstructured triangular grids and grids with local refinement. We analyze important issues such as local conservation, velocity continuity, and orders of interpolation. Based on our analysis, we recommend a lower order locally conservative method for the most robust and numerically efficient calculation of streamline trajectories on unstructured grids. The proposed method is then applied to generate streamline visualizations for various grids. Previous studies have demonstrated the use of the FMM and the diffusive time of flight for drainage volume visualization and pressure depletion estimation for un- conventional reservoirs. In the current study, we first extend the FMM to corner point grids and anisotropic permeabilities. We then propose a new formulation of the diffusivity equation using the diffusive time of flight ? as a spatial coordinate. This new ? -coordinate formulation reduces the problem from 3D to 1D in space. The basic formulation is extended by incorporating additional physical processes which are potentially important in shale gas reservoirs. The new formulation is validated by comparing with both analytical solution and traditional finite difference simulation. Our expectation is that the new formulation will become an efficient and versatile tool for pressure depletion and associated reservoir characterization applications.

▼ Wells on the eastern side of the Midland Basin near its Eastern Shelf in Glasscock County, Texas, penetrate an Upper Leonardian succession of detrital carbonate, deposited in slope and basinal environments. Hydrocarbon production from this interval in Veterans and St. Lawrence Fields is highly variable - some wells produced oil at economic rates following fracture stimulation, whereas the coeval section in other wells failed to produce oil after fracture stimulation. The depositional texture and diagenetic attributes of the Upper Leonardian detrital carbonate succession were described from slabbed cores, plain light and cathodoluminescence (CL) petrography, scanning electron microscope (SEM) images, and formation micro-imager (FMI) logs. Depth-by-depth assessment of petrophysical properties were interpreted from conventional wireline logs and laboratory core plug measurements using the multimineral analysis method. Nine main lithofacies were identified on the basis of depositional texture, constituent composition (skeletal and non-skeletal grains, detrital component, and mineralogy) and diagenetic features. The upper and middle slope lithofacies are: mud-lean fusulinid-crinoid packstone and clast-supported polymict conglomerate deposited in channelized settings. The middle and lower slope deposits are: fusulinid-crinoid packstone, fusulinid wackestone, skeletal wackestone and partially silicified skeletal wackestone to mudstone. Occasional intraclasts in these deposits suggest they were deposited by debris flows. The lower slope facies is matrix-supported conglomerate deposited by debris flow at the toe-of-slope. Carbonate mudstone was deposited on the lower slope and on unchannelized parts of the slope. Shale was deposited in the basin. The Upper Leonardian detrital carbonate succession in Veterans and St. Lawrence Fields was deposited in carbonate aprons developed along relatively gentle to steep slopes (1-50) that were fed by small submarine canyons that by-passed fine-grained upper slope sediments. The rocks were affected most by burial diagenesis. The effects of burial diagenesis on the formation are mechanical and chemical compaction, resulting in reduced pore sizes and loss of primary interparticle porosity, reduced pore throat diameter, stylolite development, grain penetration, grain deformation, and grain fracturing. The pore system throughout the carbonate units is characterized by intraparticle pores mainly in skeletal grains and interparticle pores which are interconnected solution-enhanced pores between grains created by partial dissolution of skeletal grains. This reservoir characterization indicates that, in Veterans and St. Lawrence Fields, the failure of some wells to produce oil at economic rates could be attributed to the heterogeneities associated with the stratigraphic framework and spatial distribution of depositional facies of the Upper Leonardian detrital carbonate succession. The potential reservoir rocks developed in the channelized portion of the slope whereas non-reservoir rocks… Advisors/Committee Members: Pope, Mike C (advisor), Heidari, Zoya (committee member), Laya, Juan-Carlos (committee member).
