Ultrabroad-bandwidth multifrequency Raman generation (1994)
Journal Article

We report on the modeling of transient stimulated rotational Raman scattering in H2 gas. We predict a multifrequency output, spanning a bandwidth greater than the pump frequency, that may be generated without any significant delay with respect to the...

Pattern formation in a passive Kerr cavity (1994)
Journal Article
Scroggie, A., Firth, W., Mcdonald, G., Tlidi, M., Lefever, R., & Lugiato, L. (1994). Pattern formation in a passive Kerr cavity. Chaos, Solitons and Fractals, 4(8-9), 1323-1354. https://doi.org/10.1016/0960-0779%2894%2990084-1

Analytical and numerical investigations of a cavity containing a Kerr medium are reported. The mean field equation with plane-wave excitation and diffraction is assumed. Stable hexagons are dominant close to threshold for a self-focusing medium. B... Read More about Pattern formation in a passive Kerr cavity.

From English to formal specifications (1994)
Thesis
Meziane, F. From English to formal specifications. (Thesis). University of Salford

Specifications provide the foundation upon which a system can be formally developed. If a specification is wrong, then no matter what method of design is used, or what quality assurance procedures are in place, they will not result in a system that...

Dynsmics in canonical spin-glasses observed by muon spin depolarization (1994)
Journal Article
Campbell, I., Amato, A., Gygax, F., Herlach, D., Schenck, A., Cywinski, R., & Kilcoyne, S. (1994). Dynsmics in canonical spin-glasses observed by muon spin depolarization. Physical Review Letters, 72(8), 1291-1294. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.72.1291

Muon spin depolarization has been studied in moderately concentrated AgMn and AuFe alloys from the freezing temperature T-g up to 300 K. The muon depolarization function can be analyzed to show that the temperature dependence of the strongly nonexpon...

From English to formal specifications (1994)
Journal Article
Vadera, S., & Meziane, F. (1994). From English to formal specifications. Computer Journal, 37(9), 753-763. https://doi.org/10.1093/comjnl/37.9.753

Formal methods provide an approach in which design steps can be shown to satisfy a specification. However, if a formal specification is wrong, then although the design steps may satisfy the formal specification, they are unlikely to satisfy the requi...

A review of expert systems for chromatography (1994)
Journal Article
Bryant, C., Adam, A., Taylor, D., & Rowe, R. (1994). A review of expert systems for chromatography. Analytica Chimica Acta, 297(3), 317-347. https://doi.org/10.1016/0003-2670%2894%2900209-6

Expert systems for chromatography are reviewed. A taxonomy is proposed that allows present (and future) expert systems in this area to be classified and facilitates an understanding of their inter-relationship. All the systems are described focusing... Read More about A review of expert systems for chromatography.

New attributes of seat dip attenuation (1994)
Journal Article
Davies, W., & Lam, Y. (1994). New attributes of seat dip attenuation. Applied Acoustics, 41(1), 1-23. https://doi.org/10.1016/0003-682X%2894%2990082-5

New measurements have been made on the low-frequency attenuation of an impulse excitation over-seating in an unoccupied concert hall and on scale model seats. Two new attributes of the phenomenon were found the attenuation varied over time and the wi... Read More about New attributes of seat dip attenuation.

Measuring auditorium seat absorption (1994)
Journal Article

There is a need for a more accurate laboratory measurement method to predict auditorium seat absorption. The traditional method tends to overpredict the absorption of the exposed front and sides of seating blocks. An alternative reverberation chamber...

Management education and training for refurbishment work within the construction industry (1994)
Thesis
Egbu, C. Management education and training for refurbishment work within the construction industry. (Thesis). University of Salford

The study is concerned with the management of refurbishment work within the UK construction industry, from a contractors' perspective. It investigates the main difficulties and problems which managers face in refurbishment work, together with the...

The active control of acoustic impedance (1994)
Thesis
Nicholson, G. The active control of acoustic impedance. (Thesis). University of Salford

The application of an active control force on a thin-walled acoustic boundary can modify the motional dynamics, and so influence the impedance presented to incident waves. This impedance determines transmission of acoustic energy, reflection of ac... Read More about The active control of acoustic impedance.
