The behaviour of brickwork arches subjected to cyclic loading (2002)
Thesis
Alnuaimi, M. The behaviour of brickwork arches subjected to cyclic loading. (Thesis). University of Salford

There are over 40,000 road bridges in the UK and most of them are over a hundred years old. These bridges were not designed to carry today's modern traffic and the everincreasing live loads especially with the introduction of 40 tonne lorries since J...

Role of diffusers in the acoustic design of the stage enclosure in concert halls (2002)
Thesis
Bermond, R. Role of diffusers in the acoustic design of the stage enclosure in concert halls. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

Previous studies on acoustic requirements for performers of classical music proved
that early reflections were of critical importance for good ensemble conditions. However,
strong early reflections may produce an unpleasant tone quality. Diffusers... Read More about Role of diffusers in the acoustic design of the stage enclosure in concert halls.
