Biomimetic deployable structures (2018)
Thesis
Fenci, G. Biomimetic deployable structures. (Thesis). University of Salford

Modern architectural designs aim at creating dynamic and flexible spaces, able to adapt to the ever-changing environment by virtue of temporary and convertible structures. Biomimetics is the applied science that, through the imitation of nature, find... Read More about Biomimetic deployable structures.

Robust speaker recognition in reverberant condition : toward greater biometric security (2018)
Thesis
Al-Karawi, K. (in press). Robust speaker recognition in reverberant condition : toward greater biometric security. (Thesis). University of Salford

Automatic speaker recognition systems have developed into an increasingly relevant technology for security applications in modern times. The primary challenge for automatic speaker recognition is to deal with the variability of the environments and c...

Energy saving and reliability of wireless body area networks for health applications (2018)
Thesis
Alshaheen, H. (in press). Energy saving and reliability of wireless body area networks for health applications. (Thesis). University of Salford

A Wireless Body Sensor Network (WBSN) consists of several biological sensors. WBSN can be employed to monitor patients’ medical conditions. Energy consumption and reliability are critical issues in WBSNs, as the nodes that are placed near the sink no...

Design performance specification for school buildings in the vicinity of gas flaring in the Niger Delta area of Nigeria (2018)
Thesis
Ogbonda, U. (in press). Design performance specification for school buildings in the vicinity of gas flaring in the Niger Delta area of Nigeria. (Thesis). University of Salford

It is evident from research that there is a strong link between poor indoor environments, external façade of school buildings, schoolchildren’s health and academic performance. In order to provide a better indoor environment for schoolchildren, meeti...

Hide and seek : a multidisciplinary study on the ecological success of an estuarine dweller (2018)
Thesis
Siegenthaler, A. (in press). Hide and seek : a multidisciplinary study on the ecological success of an estuarine dweller. (Thesis). University of Salford

Estuaries are dynamic systems in which biotic and abiotic conditions vary remarkably. Survival in these habitats requires flexibility in dealing with these variations, which include changes in food availability and shelter opportunities. A thorough u...

Planning and optimisation of 4G/5G mobile networks and beyond (2018)
Thesis
Egena, O. Planning and optimisation of 4G/5G mobile networks and beyond. (Thesis). The University of Salford

As mobile networks continue to evolve, two major problems have always existed that greatly affect the quality of service that users experience. These problems are (1) efficient resource management for users at the edge of the network and those in a n... Read More about Planning and optimisation of 4G/5G mobile networks and beyond.

Optimisation techniques for finding connected components in large graphs using GraphX (2018)
Thesis
Turifi, M. (in press). Optimisation techniques for finding connected components in large graphs using GraphX. (Thesis). The University of Salford

The problem of finding connected components in undirected graphs has been well studied. It is an essential pre-processing step to many graph computations, and a fundamental task in graph analytics applications, such as social network analysis, web gr...

The auditory fingerprint : multidimensional characterization of individual pitch perception in musicians (2018)
Thesis
Benner, J. (in press). The auditory fingerprint : multidimensional characterization of individual pitch perception in musicians. (Dissertation). University of Salford

Musicians have been repeatedly reported to show remarkable inter-individual differences in elementary hearing functions, sound perception mode, musical instrument preference, performance style, as well as musical abilities such as absolute- and relat...
