Time-dependent thermo-elastic creep analysis of thick-walled spherical pressure vessels made of functionally graded materials (2015)
Journal Article

Assuming that the thermo-elastic creep response of the material is governed by Norton's law and material properties, except Poisson's ratio, are considered as a function of the radius of the spherical vessel, an analytical solution is presented for c...

Energy management of the organ fraction of the municipal solid waste. Case study: Metropolitan area of Medellin, Colombia (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The global problem of production and final disposal of the municipal solid waste, has today a greater environmental impact due to economic growth, the industrial development and the increase of population in urban areas. In the case of Colombia, the... Read More about Energy management of the organ fraction of the municipal solid waste. Case study: Metropolitan area of Medellin, Colombia.

Depositor discipline in the East Asian banking system (2015)
Journal Article

This paper analyses the effectiveness of depositor discipline in the East Asian banking system during the time surrounding the 1997 crisis period. Firstly, the paper investigates the 'wake-up call' hypothesis, to find out whether depositor responses... Read More about Depositor discipline in the East Asian banking system.

A cosmopolitan ethos for our future lawyers (2015)
Journal Article

This article advocates the strengthening of the spirit of cosmopolitanism in modern legal education. In contrast to the epistemic environment of predominantly domestic and nation-oriented discourses across law schools and faculties around the world,...

Ice jam flood hazard assessment and mapping of the Peace River at the Town of Peace River (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Efforts are underway in Canada to develop, update and extend flood risk assessments and mapping for river sections prone to flooding. However, most of these previous works are limited to the open-water case. Very little has been done to include flood...

The development of novel fuel dehydrating icing inhibitors (2015)
Thesis

Dissolved water is a normal component of jet fuel which is vapourised during combustion; however, free water is a contaminant that can starve engines, freeze to form ice crystals capable of blocking fuel feeds, support microbial growth, and contribut...

A new design of membraneless microbial fuel cell: Anode and cathode share the same self-stratified electrolyte of urine (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Regardless of architecture, microbial fuel cell technology requires a plurality of units to achieve exploitable electrical power. This implies that each unit needs a simple design allowing the production of the needed multiplicity. Here, we present a...

Encapsulated mineral precursors for self-healing cement based composites (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Influence of expansive minerals on the self-healing of cement paste and mortar systems (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Expansive minerals have great prospects for improving the self-healing capacity of concrete. Once a crack start propagating, an embedded unhydrated expansive mineral could hydrate and expand hence bridging and healing the cracks. This study investiga...
