Adsorption of enhanced oil recovery polymer, schizophyllan, over carbonate minerals by Mohammad Shoaib (3488174)

“…Our results indicate the adsorption capacity is higher on calcite and dolomite compared to silica and kaolin and the adsorption capacity decreases with salinity. Moreover, the adsorption kinetics follows pseudo-second order mechanism regardless of the mineral type. …”

Run Rules-Based EWMA Charts for Efficient Monitoring of Profile Parameters by Ali Yeganeh (16624998)

“…The proposed EWMAR chart with run rules exhibits a much better performance in detecting small and decreasing shifts than the other competing charts. Finally, an example from multivariate manufacturing industry is employed to illustrate the superiority of the EWMAR chart with run rules.…”

Fast Sampling of Score-Based Models With Cyclical Diffusion Sampling by Karimul Makhtidi (21401540)

“…We have shown, via empirical assessments, that cyclical diffusion sampling significantly enhances image quality and markedly decreases inference time. Notably, the method preserves simplicity and requires no alterations to the network architecture, which promotes straightforward reproducibility and seamless integration with current methodologies.…”

Numerical analysis of spatial distribution of carbon in methane dry reforming over supported nickel catalyst in a packed bed reactor by Ebrahimi, Parisa

Resilience-uncertainty nexus in building energy management integrated with solar system and battery storage by Hasan Mehrjerdi (16869957)

“…The energy resilience is improved and the energy cost is decreased at the same time while all events and uncertainties are modeled. …”

Migration frameworks in Africa by Alemu Asfaw Nigusie (16962900)

“…Flahaux and De Haas (2016, p. 7) contend that the “total stocks of migration from Africa to the rest of the world and within Africa have increased between 1960, 1980 and 2000, while migration from the rest of the world to Africa has decreased in absolute numbers”. Nonetheless, as the data from UN DESA shows, the number of international migrants that Africa hosts has not been consistent across the three decades (1990–2019). …”
