Experiments and modeling of size reduction of switchgrass in laboratory rotary knife mill
Creators: name: Jafari Naimi, Ladan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: Biomass from forestry and agricultural sources has recently drawn a lot of attention as a new source of feedstock for energy and bio products. Size reduction is an important step in preparation of biomass as a feedstock. Each conversion process needs its own specific size or size distribution of particles. Modeling the size reduction process helps to optimize the design and control of the process while ensuring biomass particle sizes for an efficient biofuel conversion process. The objective of this study was to apply the population balance method for modeling the size reduction process. The model was applied to switchgrass size reduction by a grinder. Two population balance parameters, grinding rate (s⁻¹) and breakage distribution function (dimensionless) were estimated using experimental grinding data. The time dependent balance equations were solved using the Euler technique. The accumulation and depletion of the particles belonging to each size category were simulated as a function of time. The simulation predicted the residence time of particles inside the grinder in a way that the ground particles could meet the size and size distribution specifications for the downstream process. The thesis also describes preliminary steps in size reduction. Ground particles were fractionated based on their size by sieving. Weibull distribution was found to be the best probability density function to fit the data.

description: It has been observed in fossil tracks and experiments in the layered silicate mica muscovite the transport of charge through the cation layers sandwiched between the layers of tetrahedra-octahedra-tetrahedra. A classical model for the propagation of anharmonic vibrations along the cation chains has been proposed based on first principles and empirical functions. In that model, several propagating entities have been found as kinks or crowdions and breathers, both with or without wings, the latter for specific velocities and energies. Crowdions are equivalent to moving interstitials and transport electric charge if the moving particle is an ion, but they also imply the movement of mass, which was not observed in the experiments. Breathers, being just vibrational entities, do not transport charge. In this work, we present a semiclassical model obtained by adding a quantum particle, electron or hole to the previous model. We present the construction of the model based on the physics of the system. In particular, the strongly nonlinear vibronic interaction between the nuclei and the extra electron or hole is essential to explain the localized charge transport, which is not compatible with the adiabatic approximation. The formation of vibrational localized charge carriers breaks the lattice symmetry group in a similar fashion to the Jahn-Teller Effect, providing a new stable dynamical state. We study the properties and the coherence of the model through numerical simulations from initial conditions obtained by tail analysis and other means. We observe that although the charge spreads from an initial localization in a lattice at equilibrium, it can be confined basically to a single particle when coupled to a chaotic quasiperiodic breather. This is coherent with the observation that experiments imply that a population of charge is formed due to the decay of potassium unstable isotopes.

Insight on the effect of contour height in pressure screening
Creators: name: Biniaris, Andreas
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: The main purpose of this study was to determine the effect of contour height on the passage ratio of pulp through screen apertures, and determine which operating variable has the greatest affect on screen performance. In addition, a freeness model was to be developed, in hopes of helping to predict the freeness drop between feed and accepts. The study was conducted at The University of British Columbia (UBC) using a laboratory scale pressure screen. Slot velocity, feed consistency and contour height were the changing variables. Samples were collected from which passage ratio, freeness, fibre length and coarseness were determined. From the studies conducted it was found that slot velocity had the greatest influence on the screen operation. As the slot velocity increased a greater force was applied to the fibre to help push it through the screen aperture. However, this increase in slot velocity decreases the fractionation ability (separation of fibres into different lengths) of the screen. The second most important variable was the contour height. The main function of the contour height is to disrupt the flow of thick stock at the wall of the screen and allow for unhindered movement of fibre to the screen wall. The greater the contour height is, the greater the passage ratio (pulp fibre passing through screen). However, there is a decrease in fractionation. The third most important factor was the feed consistency. At low feed consistencies there is less crowding in the screen. Less crowding leads to more loosely-formed flocs, which are easier for the contour height and the rotor to dissipate and thus leads to unhindered movement. Thicker feed stock has a negative effect on passage A Freeness model was developed that showed that freeness had a power law relationship to passage ratio. The passage ratio was raised to a constant B, which is a function of the contour height and the feed consistency.

description: The magnetic dipole transition strength $B(M1)$ of $^{48}$Ca is dominated by a single resonant state at an excitation energy of 10.23 MeV. Experiments disagree about $B(M1)$ and this impacts our understanding of spin flips in nuclei. We performed ab initio computations based on chiral effective field theory and found that $B(M1:0^+\rightarrow1^+)$ lies in the range from $7.0$ to $10.2~μ_N^2$. This is consistent with a $(γ,n)$ experiment but larger than results from $(e,e^\prime)$ and $(p,p')$ scattering. Two-body currents yield no quenching of the $B(M1)$ strength and continuum effects reduce it by about 10%. For a validation of our approach, we computed magnetic moments in $^{47,49}$Ca and performed benchmark calculations in light nuclei.

description: The gravitational waves emitted (some time) after two black holes merge are well described by the theory of linear perturbations on a spacetime characterized by the mass and spin of the remnant. However, in the very early stages right after merger, both the mass and spin are changing. In this work we explore, in a set up based on Vaidya's spacetime, the dynamical consequences of a change of mass in the spacetime due to the accretion of null matter (for example, gravitational waves). We show that accretion imprints time-dependent frequencies and amplitude to a ringdown waveform, and we show how to model accurately this effect in certain regimes. We also comment on the direct emission of gravitational waves due to perturbations in the in--falling matter, which is of relevance for black holes embedded in astrophysical environments.

Natural gas recovery from hydrates in a silica sand matrix
Creators: name: Haligva, Cef
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: This thesis studies methane hydrate crystal formation and decomposition at 1.0, 4.0 and 7.0°C in a new apparatus. Hydrate was formed in the interstitial space of a variable volume bed of silica sand particles with an average diameter equal to 329μm (150 to 630μm range). The initial pressure inside the reactor was 8.0MPa for all the formation experiments. Three bed sizes were employed in order to observe the effects of the silica sand bed size on the rate of methane consumption (formation) and release (decomposition). The temperature at various locations inside the silica sand bed was measured with thermocouples during formation and decomposition experiments. For the decomposition experiments, two different methods were employed to dissociate the hydrate: thermal stimulation and depressurization. It was found that more than 74.0% of water conversion to hydrates was achieved in all hydrate formation experiments at 4.0°C and 1.0°C starting with a pressure of 8.0MPa. The dissociation of hydrate was found to occur in two stages when thermal stimulation was employed whereas three stages were found during depressurization. In both cases, the first stage was strongly affected by the changing bed size whereas it was not found to depend on the bed size afterwards.

(a) Olfr692-expressing cells are not activated by short-chain aliphatic acids, such as heptanoic, octanoic, nonanoic, and decanoic acids. See also Additional file 7: Table S1 and references [49, 50]. (b) Screening of Olfr692-expressing artificially modified Hana3a heterologous cells with aliphatic acids presented at different concentrations shows no stimulus-induced activity (alkaline phosphatase output in black lines; positive control response for receptor Olfr544 [49] in red line). Responses were normalized against maximum response in Olfr544-expressing control cells exposed to nonanedioic acid. Mean ± SEM. lu, VNO lumen. Scale bars represent 100 μm. Nuclear staining is To-Pro-3 labeling (blue). (c) Functional assay with a panel of 70 odorants in Olfr692-expressing Hana3a cells. Although serial dilutions in half-log steps from 10–3–10–7 M were used, only the concentrations which gave the maximum fold-change for Olfr692 are shown for each odorant. The x-axis indicates the SEAP signal fold-change for Olfr692-expressing cells relative to Hana3a cells with no OR. The y-axis shows signal fold-change over baseline. Stimulus categories are color-coded, to indicate stimuli that activate VSNs in vitro, pheromones and kairomones, stimuli that can still be detected by mice even in the absence of a functional MOE (AC3-/- mice), or known class I OR ligands. (c’) Immunocytochemistry against the Rho tag to show cell surface expression of Olfr692 (red) in Hana3a transfected cells. (d) Full concentration-response curves for odorants which gave a fold-change over baseline ≥2.5 and fold-change over no-OR control >1.0 in (c). P values are for interaction of receptor and concentration of odorant, two-way ANOVA. Colored lines indicate Hana3a cells expressing Olfr692, in comparison with "no-OR" control cells (black lines).

Rheology and processing of mozzarella cheese
Creators: name: Muliawan, Edward Budi
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: Taken as an engineering material, mozzarella cheese can be considered as a complex food system that has dynamic structure and complex flowproperties. Food scientists have been actively developing methods to characterize mozzarella cheese rheologically, but most of these methods are empirical in nature. In the past decades, there has been a paradigm shift towards the utilization of well-developed rheological methods which have been widely applied in the study of commercial synthetic polymers. In this work, the rheology of mozzarella cheese was studied using well-developed rheological techniques. Utilizing various rheometers, the linear and non-linear rheology of mozzarella cheese was examined. General practical properties of mozzarella cheese such as meltability, flowability and stretchability were extracted from these results. Capillary flow and rolling experiments were also performed to determine their suitability as innovative post-production processing techniques for mozzarella cheese. Finally, a comparative study on the effect of frozen storage on the rheology of three different brands of mozzarella cheese was performed. In general, it was found that mozzarella cheese can be classified as a pseudoplastic (shear thinning) semi-solid material possessing a yield stress at room temperature. Upon heating, the yield stress gradually diminishes and it can be considered as a viscoelastic fluid. The results obtained from the various rheometers indicate that the yield stress, duration of experiment, sample geometry and temperature greatly affect the consistency of the results. It was also shown that extrusion can be used as a processing technique for mozzarella cheese above a certain temperature where the cheese is in a melt state. Rolling was also found to be a potentially feasible processing method. Finally, in terms of the effect of frozen storage, in general, the dynamic moduli decrease with the period of storage due to the freezing of the proteins in the cheese.

description: The redbelly toad Melanophryniscus pachyrhynus (Miranda-Ribeiro, 1920) is a poorly known toad belonging to the M. tumifrons group, which inhabits rocky open areas on top of hilly landscapes of the Uruguayan Savanna ecoregion in Uruguay and southern Brazil. In this study we describe the advertisement and release calls from a redbelly toad population from the central Rio Grande do Sul, southern Brazil, based on recordings obtained during the winter season of 2011. The advertisement call consists of a complex call with two segments, the first segment comprising a series of single, unpulsed notes, and the second comprising a multi-pulsed note (a trill) highly variable in duration. The mean dominant frequency of the call is 2668 ± 154 Hz (2261–2932 Hz) and mean call duration is 37.07 ± 23.97 s (6.64–75.20 s). This feature, however, is highly variable depending on the duration of the second segment, which may be notably longer compared to calls of other species of the genus Melanophryniscus. The release call was recorded during amplexus of up to four individuals. It consists of a short trill with a dominant frequency of approximately 2245 Hz, emitted as a series of five to six pulsed notes, each comprising five or six pulses. The advertisement call of Melanophryniscus pachyrhynus is compared with those of four other Melanophryniscus species, and the similarities in habitat requirements and in the temporal pattern of reproduction for species of the M. tumifrons group are discussed.

description: ENN Science and Technology Development Co., Ltd. (ENN) is committed to generating fusion energy in an environmentally friendly and cost-effective manner, which requires abundant aneutronic fuel. Proton-boron ( p-$^{11}$B or p-B) fusion is considered an ideal choice for this purpose. Recent studies have suggested that p-B fusion, although challenging, is feasible based on new cross-section data, provided that a hot ion mode and high wall reflection can be achieved to reduce electron radiation loss. The high beta and good confinement of the spherical torus (ST) make it an ideal candidate for p-B fusion. By utilizing the new spherical torus energy confinement scaling law, a reactor with a major radius $R_0=4$ m, central magnetic field $B_0=6$ T, central temperature $T_{i0}=150$ keV, plasma current $I_p=30$ MA, and hot ion mode $T_i/T_e=4$ can yield p-B fusion with $Q>10$. A roadmap for p-B fusion has been developed, with the next-generation device named EHL-2. EHL stands for ENN He-Long, which literally means ``peaceful Chinese Loong". The main target parameters include $R_0\simeq1.05$ m, $A\simeq1.85$, $B_0\simeq3$ T, $T_{i0}\simeq30$ keV, $I_p\simeq3$ MA, and $T_i/T_e\geq2$. The existing ST device EXL-50 was simultaneously upgraded to provide experimental support for the new roadmap, involving the installation and upgrading of the central solenoid, vacuum chamber, and magnetic systems. The construction of the upgraded ST fusion device, EXL-50U, was completed at the end of 2023, and it achieved its first plasma in January 2024. The construction of EHL-2 is estimated to be completed by 2026.

description: We propose a method for optimizing mutual coupling functions to achieve fast and global synchronization between a pair of weakly coupled limit-cycle oscillators. Our method is based on phase reduction that provides a concise low-dimensional representation of the synchronization dynamics of mutually coupled oscillators, including the case where the coupling depends on past time series of the oscillators. We first describe a method for a pair of identical oscillators and then generalize it to the case of slightly nonidentical oscillators. The coupling function is designed in two optimization steps for the functional form and amplitude, where the amplitude is numerically optimized to minimize the average convergence time under a constraint on the total power. We perform numerical simulations of the synchronization dynamics with the optimized coupling functions using the FitzHugh-Nagumo and Rössler oscillators as examples. We show that the coupling function optimized by the proposed method can achieve global synchronization more efficiently than the previous methods.

Biological hydrogen production using Citrobacter amalonaticus Y19 to catalyze the water-gas shift reaction
Creators: name: Robaire, Sandra
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This research reports on investigating Citrobacter amalonaticus Y19, a chemoheterotrophic facultative bacterium, as a catalyst to produce hydrogen from a lowgrade synthesis gas stream. Several production strategies were considered, with a two stage batch reaction shown to be most effective. This strategy begins with aerobic growth of the organism, where the biomass is generated, followed by hydrogen production in an anaerobic environment, where production and activation of carbon monoxide dehydrogenase and the CO-induced hydrogenase enzymes is required to catalyze biological H₂ production. The anaerobic environment was created by purging the reactors with a gas mixture of 40% CO in helium (v/v). The rates of hydrogen production were analyzed by measuring the concentrations of H₂, CO, and CO₂ during the anaerobic stage by collecting gas samples from the headspace. Samples were also collected from the fermentation medium to monitor the concentration of Ci amalonaticus Y19, organic acids, and pH. Design of experiments was used to investigate the dependence of hydrogen productivity on various process parameters, including reactor pressure and various media components, such as the presence of CO during the growth phase, the presence of glucose, tryptone, and trace metals such as nickel and iron. The effect of re-suspension was also investigated since decoupling the two stages allows for a larger amount of freedom in selecting process conditions. The results indicate that increasing pressure has a negligible effect on hydrogen productivity, likely due to substrate inhibition compensating increased substrate availability. The results also show that altering certain media components can increase hydrogen productivity. Nickel, in particular, increased the H₂ productivity from 0.47 to 0.87 mmol H₂/ (L x h) when its concentration was increased from 0 to 125mg/L. Re-suspension between stages decreased the inhibition of enzyme production and activation by eliminating the inhibitory metabolites produced during the growth stage. This was manifested in the form of a reduced lag phase from approximately 18 hours to 5 hours with re-suspension, as well as an increased H₂ production rate. The maximum H₂ productivity attained was 1.5 mmol H₂/ (L x h) in buffered media when the cells were re-suspended between stages.
