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.

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

Design of high-performance tracking systems for multivariable plants with explicit actuator and sensor dynamics (1987)
Thesis
Manganas, T. Design of high-performance tracking systems for multivariable plants with explicit actuator and sensor dynamics. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

The problems created by the presence of finite actuators and sensors in
the control of linear multivariable systems are well known. These
problems, which are particularly evident when high-gain or fast-sampling
control is used, are usually the cau... Read More about Design of high-performance tracking systems for multivariable plants with explicit actuator and sensor dynamics.

A computational treatment of incompressible flow through screens (1987)
Thesis
Abdelhameed, A. A computational treatment of incompressible flow through screens. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

A numerical treatment of the full equations of the flow of an inviscid incompressible fluid through a shaped gauze-screen in two-dimensional and axisymmetric ducts is presented. The method although inviscid is aimed at the treatment of high Reynolds... Read More about A computational treatment of incompressible flow through screens.

Fatigue crack growth in aluminium alloy structures (1986)
Thesis
Nosair, S. Fatigue crack growth in aluminium alloy structures. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

Fatigue cracks have been reported in the super structure of the
surface ships in the navy. Repair techniques have been proposed
and applied on compact tension specimens. Such techniques were;
either by creating compressive residual stresses usi... Read More about Fatigue crack growth in aluminium alloy structures.

The Gulf Co-operation Council and security in the Arabian Gulf (1985)
Thesis

For many years the Arabian Gulf was an area which ranked
high in the list of British overseas interests, so high
in fact that Britain was the protecting power of the
Gulf states by virtue of exclusive treaties. In the
years following the second w... Read More about The Gulf Co-operation Council and security in the Arabian Gulf.

The effect of reduced cultivation on selected soil fauna (1984)
Thesis

Conventional cultivation is costly in both man hours and fuel energy, and tends to increase the rate of soil erosion. The introduction of reduced tillage systems has led to savings in both labour and energy, and to increased soil conservation. Change...
