NUMERICAL INVESTIGATION OF THE POTENTIAL OF USING HYDROGEN AS AN ALTERNATIVE FUEL FOR AN INDUSTRIAL BURNER
(Mechanical Engineering, 2024 , Master Thesis)
The impact of emissions resulting from burning many types of fuels is one of the biggest problems that affect the environment. Attention has recently been drawn to using some gases and mixing them with specific types of ...
Corrosion Detection Using Transfer Learning-Based Modeling for Image Classification
(Mechanical Engineering, 2019 , Master Thesis)
This study uses image classification-based transfer learning to train models on the task of corrosion-detection on metallic surfaces. This is done by photographing images of samples of aluminium, iron and steel before and ...
Development And Performance Evaluation Of Smart Polymeric Coatings For Corrosion Protection Of Steel
(Mechanical Engineering, 2020 , Master Thesis)
Most common cause of materials and equipment failure in the oil and gas industry is corrosion. According to one survey, about 1/4 to 1/3 of the total downtime in plants is due to deleterious effects of corrosion. It is, ...
