Mcpherson, Brian James | Direct simulation of fluid-solid mechanics in porous media using the discrete element and lattice-Boltzmann methods | A detailed understanding of the coupling between fluid and solid mechanics is important for understanding many processes in Earth sciences. Numerical models are a popular means for exploring these processes, but most models do not adequately handle all aspects of this coupling. This paper presents ... | 2007 | |

Lenart, Joshua Bela | The Blue Castle project: a feasibility study of the proposed nuclear power plant in Emery County, Utah along the Green River | With an increasing population in Utah, specifically in the Salt Lake Valley, the demand for energy is rapidly growing each year. Currently, Utah's electric grid is largely produced by burning coal, natural gas, and other fossil fuels. In the past, supplying Utahns with electricity from these forms h... | Blue Castle; Utah; Nuclear power plant; Emery County | 2015-08 |

Mcpherson, Brian James | Overpressures in the Uinta Basin, Utah: analysis using a three-dimensional basin evolution model | Abstract. High pore fluid pressures, approaching lithostatic, are observed in the deepest sections of the Uinta basin,Utah. Geologic observations and previous modeling studies suggest that the most likely cause of observed overpressure is hydrocarbon generation. We studied Uinta overpressure by dev... | 2001 | |

Lenart, Joshua B. | The Uinta Express pipeline: a comprehensive research report conducted by students enrolled in CvEEN 3100 technical communications | The Uinta Express Pipeline is a proposed common carrier pipeline which would transport waxy crude oil extracted from the Uinta Basin in northeastern Utah to area refineries in North Salt Lake City. The proposed project would consist of a 12-inch, buried, insulated, carbon steel pipeline supported by... | Uinta Express pipeline; Feasibility study; Waxy crude oil; Environmental impact assessment | 2015-02 |
