Experimental studies of the processes occuring in ion plating discharges (1982)
Thesis
Valizadeh, H. Experimental studies of the processes occuring in ion plating discharges. (Thesis). University of Salford, UK

A theoretical study of the processes occurring in ion plating is carried out and the potential of various mechanisms affecting properties of ion-plated films is studied. Three pieces of apparatus are designed and developed to study the contributions... Read More about Experimental studies of the processes occuring in ion plating discharges.

The Indian connection: an assessment of Hromnik's' Indo-Africa' (1982)
Journal Article
Hall, M., & Borland, C. (1982). The Indian connection: an assessment of Hromnik's' Indo-Africa'. South African archaeological bulletin, 37(136), 75-80

In this paper, we assess critically a recent publication that seeks to attribute most developments in the later prehistory of southern Africa to Indian gold-seekers. We show that the book has all the characteristics of 'cult archaeology', resurrectin... Read More about The Indian connection: an assessment of Hromnik's' Indo-Africa'.

Quantifying trends in site location with multidimensional scaling (1982)
Journal Article
Hall, M. (1982). Quantifying trends in site location with multidimensional scaling. World Archaeology, 14(1), 131-152

In this paper, I consider some of the problems of quantifying locational trends in archaeology. A review of the methods available reveals that techniques may either be limited to situations where a considerable knowledge of the nature of the site, or...

Polypropylene fibre reinforcement of hardened cement paste (1982)
Thesis
Gandhi, D. Polypropylene fibre reinforcement of hardened cement paste. (Thesis). University of Salford

This thesis considers the tensile deformation characteristics of
polypropylene fibre reinforced hardened cement paste having heterogeneous
fibre geometries and a range of volume concentrations.
Polypropylene fibres were prepared under various manu... Read More about Polypropylene fibre reinforcement of hardened cement paste.

Small urban centres in Sierra Leone : a geographical study with particular reference to their role in rural development (1982)
Thesis
Kargbo, T. Small urban centres in Sierra Leone : a geographical study with particular reference to their role in rural development. (Thesis). University of Salford

Regional inequalities in the developing countries have in recent
years led to increasing attention to various proposals of deconcentration
and decentralization, which in turn have triggered renewed interest in
rural developnent and the potential s... Read More about Small urban centres in Sierra Leone : a geographical study with particular reference to their role in rural development.

Gross assimilation efficiency and food passage time in the African elephant (1982)
Journal Article
Rees, P. (1982). Gross assimilation efficiency and food passage time in the African elephant. African journal of ecology, 20(3), 193-198. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2028.1982.tb00290.x

The amount of food consumed and dung voided by two captive African elephants was measured over a period of 7 days. The mean gross assimilation efficiency of the two elephants was calculated to be 22.4%. The food passage time was between 21.4 and 46 h...

An investigation into the mechanisms of fretting fatigue (1982)
Thesis
Beard, J. An investigation into the mechanisms of fretting fatigue. (Thesis). University of Salford

This thesis describes the experimental work carried
out to further the understanding of the mechanisms
involved in the process of fretting fatigue.
The design and construction of a rig to enable a
controlled fretting action to be applied to a pus... Read More about An investigation into the mechanisms of fretting fatigue.
