Separation of acidic gases using hollow fibre membrane contractors (2002)
Thesis
El-Amari, A. Separation of acidic gases using hollow fibre membrane contractors. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

Gas absorption in hollow fibre contactors is being increasingly used due to their enormous surface area/volume ratio. The capability of the hollow fibre membrane modules for the removal of CO 2 and SO2 from a binary gas mixture has been investigat...

Attendance demand for soccer : a spatial cross-sectional approach (2002)
Thesis
Feehan, P. Attendance demand for soccer : a spatial cross-sectional approach. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

The cost of a return journey to a soccer match can often be comparable to, or even exceed the admission price. However, in spite of the importance of travel costs, previous studies on the demand for live soccer generally exclude travel costs from...

Information systems investment and value appraisal in the public sector (2002)
Thesis
Jones, S. Information systems investment and value appraisal in the public sector. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

This thesis develops the hypothesis for a new interpretive approach to the evaluation of information systems (IS), termed situated hermeneutic IS evaluation. The thesis adds to the body of knowledge in this area as this new approach moves away fr... Read More about Information systems investment and value appraisal in the public sector.

The development of a project process evaluation (PPE) framework that aims to measure the effectiveness of implementing a new design and construction project process (2002)
Thesis
Lee, A. The development of a project process evaluation (PPE) framework that aims to measure the effectiveness of implementing a new design and construction project process. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

Increased globalised competition and the need to meet continuously changing customer requirements has forced the UK construction industry to consider its practice. The industry has been repeatedly criticised for its inefficiency, fragmentation,...

Development of PCR based techniques for the characterisation of Trypanosoma brucei strains from East Africa (2002)
Thesis
Tilley, A. Development of PCR based techniques for the characterisation of Trypanosoma brucei strains from East Africa. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

Human trypanosomiasis in east Africa, caused by Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense, occurs in specific foci that alternate between endemic and epidemic states. Identification of T.b. rhodesiense is complicated as it also circulates in cattle rese...

Extracting room acoustic parameters from received speech signals using artificial neural networks (2002)
Thesis
Li, F. Extracting room acoustic parameters from received speech signals using artificial neural networks. (Thesis). University of Salford

Quantitative room acoustics over a century has accumulated a knowledge base centred around objective acoustic parameters. Realistic and accurate measurements are essential in room acoustics. Occupied measurements are difficult to undertake with curre... Read More about Extracting room acoustic parameters from received speech signals using artificial neural networks.

Towards a conceptual model for the application of life cycle costing (LCC) in package wastewater treatment plants in the UK (2002)
Thesis
Sadik, F. Towards a conceptual model for the application of life cycle costing (LCC) in package wastewater treatment plants in the UK. (Dissertation). University of Salford

Fragmentation is a key feature of the construction industry. This problem needs tackling in order to improve efficiency, reduce costs and making construction industry more competitive. Many systems were introduced, within the last two decades, wit...
