Molecular characterisation and functional properties of gum arabic (1992)
Thesis
Randall, R. Molecular characterisation and functional properties of gum arabic. (Thesis). University of Salford

Semi-PreParative gel permeation chromatography (gpc) was used to isolate several molecular mass components of gum arabic. The u. v. (218 nm) gpc elution profile showed the presence of several prominent peaks; however, only one major peak (FAw 3.8 x 1...

Iterative learning control of multivariable plants (1992)
Thesis
Mohamed, S. Iterative learning control of multivariable plants. (Thesis). University of Salford, UK

In recent years, many researchers have proposed different iterative learning controllers, which unfortunately mostly require that the plants under control be regular. Therefore, in order to remove this limitation, various analogue and digital iter... Read More about Iterative learning control of multivariable plants.

Gas network optimisation using Nash equilibria derived from dynamic non-cooperative non-zero sum game theory (1992)
Thesis
Ramchandani, N. Gas network optimisation using Nash equilibria derived from dynamic non-cooperative non-zero sum game theory. (Thesis). University of Salford

Efficient management of the national gas grid in Great Britain involves a complex optimisation task to resolve the sometimes conflicting requirements of security of supplies to customers, contractual obligation to suppliers and the cost of transmis...

Developments in sandwich construction (1992)
Thesis
Tajbakhsh, S. Developments in sandwich construction. (Thesis). University of Salford

The research is divided into two parts. In the first part the structural behaviour of sandwich beams using timber-based facings and foamed plastic cores was studied. Various available theories were examined and the most appropriate theory for thi... Read More about Developments in sandwich construction.

The effects of seating on the acoustics of auditoria (1992)
Thesis
Davies, W. The effects of seating on the acoustics of auditoria. (Thesis). University of Salford

The two main attributes of seating in auditoria have been investigated. Tle first is random incidence absorption. The second is the low-frequency selective attenuation which seating can impart to sound travelling over it at grazing incidence: the...

Lateral-torsional buckling of haunched members in portal frames : an assessment of BS 5950 : part 1 (1992)
Thesis
Junid, S. Lateral-torsional buckling of haunched members in portal frames : an assessment of BS 5950 : part 1. (Thesis). University of Salford

The research described in this thesis, relates mainly to the current method of design of steel portal frame structures. The study is divided into two major parts, first being the full-scale test on a 24 metre span frame and the second deals with...

An in-situ combustion simulator for enhanced oil recovery (1992)
Thesis
Oklany, J. An in-situ combustion simulator for enhanced oil recovery. (Thesis). University of Salford

A multi-dimensional three phase flow simulator is written to simulate the process of in-situ combustion. It has six components (oxygen, inert gas, a light oil, a heavy oil, water, and coke). The inert gas consists of all the noncondensible gases o... Read More about An in-situ combustion simulator for enhanced oil recovery.

Objective and subjective evaluation of reflecting and diffusing surfaces in auditoria (1992)
Thesis
Cox, T. Objective and subjective evaluation of reflecting and diffusing surfaces in auditoria. (Thesis). University of Salford

The performance of reflectors and diffusers used in auditoria have been evaluated both objectively and subjectively. Two accurate systems have been developed to measure the scattering from surfaces via the cross correlation function. These have be...

An experimental study of heat driven absorption cooling systems (1992)
Thesis
Delgado, R. An experimental study of heat driven absorption cooling systems. (Dissertation). University of Salford

The great need for cooling combined with Mexico's large availability of low enthalpy geothermal energy, makes it very attractive to utilize this resource for cooling using heat driven absorption systems. Mexico posseses large amounts of brine at t... Read More about An experimental study of heat driven absorption cooling systems.
