Algorithms for pipeline transfer scheduling
… the petroleum industry is the scheduling of the pipeline transfer of petroleum fuels from oil refineries to distribution terminals. With a fixed set of pipelines, each with its own restrictions and constraints, the scheduler must organize the products and timing of transfers through each pipeline …

Imperfect upheaval subsea pipeline buckling
… practice with regard to in-service, subsea pipeline buckling. The role of imperfections is shown to be of central importance. These factors are considered in the context of modern offshore engineering practice, including the particular employment of trenching and/or burial for purposes of …

The performance of pipeline ploughs
Pipeline ploughs are commonly used to bury offshore pipelines for their protection from loading by currents, damage from fishing trawler vessels and to provide thermal insulation to the line allowing the product to flow more efficiently. The rate of progress of pipeline ploughs in sand is …

Pipeline flow of coarse particle slurries
The horizontal pipeline flow of coarse-particle slurries has been examined. The study includes an evaluation of previous work, an experimental investigation and a presentation of improved modelling techniques for determining pipeline design parameters. The experimental investigation was carried out …

Performance Improvements for the Rasterization Pipeline
… new algorithms targeted for the rasterization pipeline, which is, at the time of writing, the de-facto standard rendering algorithm used in graphics hardware. We focus on three areas in the pipeline. The first is the rasterization step where we present efficient sampling strategies which can …

A high performance vector rendering pipeline
… such the benefits of using them in the graphics pipeline were not fully expressed. In this thesis we propose methods for addressing the following questions. How can we introduce vector images into the graphics pipeline, namingly, how can we produce them in real time. How can we take advantage of …

Soil-pipeline interaction in unsaturated soils
Pipelines that are used for the transport of energy and services are very important lifelines to modem society. Though pipelines are generally buried in unsaturated soils, the design guidelines are based on the assumption that the soil is either dry or fully saturated. For certain geotechnical …

Accelerating Irregular Applications with Pipeline Parallelism
… applications contain abundant but untapped pipeline parallelism: they can be divided into networks of stages. Pipelining not only exposes parallelism but also enables decoupling, which hides the latency of long events by allowing producer stages to run ahead of consumer stages. To properly …

A Pipeline for Zoomed Fetal MRI
… RF excitation. In this thesis, we propose a pipeline to exploit novel zoomed or restricted slice RF excitation for imaging for fetal MRI with benefits that include the mitigation of motion artifacts, reduced RF power deposition, and shorter overall scan time. The three dominant contributions …

Design of a model pipeline for testing of piezoelectric micro power generator for the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System
… corrosion detection system for the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System (TAPS), a distributed wireless self-powered sensor array is needed to monitor the entire length of the pipeline at all times. Such a sensor faces two primary challenges: a method to provide power for the sensor, and a method to …

Analysing and Enhancing the Coarse Registration Pipeline
… to correlate normals in a coarse registration pipeline has been shown previously to be an effective means for registering partially overlapping point-clouds. The advantage of normals is their translation invariance, which permits the rotation and translation to be decoupled and determined …
