The impact of decentralisation on development, with special reference to the experience of Bangladesh since 1982 (1990)
Thesis
Kalam, A. The impact of decentralisation on development, with special reference to the experience of Bangladesh since 1982. (Thesis). University of Salford

Many Third World countries appear to have suffered in the past from over-centralised development efforts. More recently, many countries have attempted to reverse these trends through a policy of decentralisation. The hope has been that this would...

The measurement of muscle strength in allergic response (1990)
Thesis
Al Hamdani, A. The measurement of muscle strength in allergic response. (Thesis). University of Salford

The purpose of this thesis was to show a relationship between muscle strength and allergic reactions. Clinics have for many years relied on what have become traditional methods for testing for allergic reactions. These include such tests as the P...

All-optical switching in a nonlinear resonator (1990)
Journal Article
Mcdonald, G., & Firth, W. (1990). All-optical switching in a nonlinear resonator. Journal of Modern Optics, 37(4), 613-626. https://doi.org/10.1080/09500349014550701

In this paper we consider some features of all-optical switching in a unidirectional ring cavity which is partially filled with a fast and saturably nonlinear medium. A comparative study of cross-talk for both signs of nonlinearity, in a two pixel (w... Read More about All-optical switching in a nonlinear resonator.

Numerical modelling of jet-forced circulation in reservoirs using boundary-fitted coordinate systems (1990)
Thesis
Barber, R. Numerical modelling of jet-forced circulation in reservoirs using boundary-fitted coordinate systems. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

Throughout the past decade, interest has grown in the use of boundary-fitted coordinate systems in many areas of computational fluid dynamics. The boundary-fitted technique provides an exact method of implementing finite-difference numerical schemes...

The concept of Murabaha in a modern Islamic context (1990)
Thesis
Mahmoud, M. The concept of Murabaha in a modern Islamic context. (Dissertation). Salford : University of Salford

One of the main principles of Islamic Banking is to avoid interest (usury) in all forms of transactions because Muslims believe that they are not allowed to deal in usury and that they have to adopt an interest-free system. In order to achieve th... Read More about The concept of Murabaha in a modern Islamic context.

Limiting factors to high intensity exercise : the role of intramuscular pH and skeletal muscle buffering (1990)
Thesis
Mannion, A. Limiting factors to high intensity exercise : the role of intramuscular pH and skeletal muscle buffering. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

Within the context of a metabolic model of fatigue, formulated from a review of the literature, a decrease in intramuscular pH was identified as a potential limiting factor to the performance of high intensity exercise (HIE). This suggested a role... Read More about Limiting factors to high intensity exercise : the role of intramuscular pH and skeletal muscle buffering.

MOCVD of tin oxide for gas sensors (1990)
Thesis

A typological model for text-structure processing : implications for the pedagogy of teaching with reference to translation (Arabic-English) (1990)
Thesis
Faiq, S. A typological model for text-structure processing : implications for the pedagogy of teaching with reference to translation (Arabic-English). (Thesis). University of Salford

This thesis starts with the postulate that advanced Arab students are generally «good» at the level of sentence formation and context free semantics of English, but who are «poor» when it comes to appropriately structuring information as texts. I... Read More about A typological model for text-structure processing : implications for the pedagogy of teaching with reference to translation (Arabic-English).
