• Respiratory viral infections in Western Australians with cystic fibrosis

  Brestovac, Brian ; Lawrence, C.; Speers, D.J.; Sammels, L.M.; Mulrennan, S. (2020)

  Background: Viral respiratory infections (VRI) in people living with Cystic fibrosis (CF) is less well understood than respiratory bacterial infections, particularly adults with CF and few studies have compared children ...
• Spatial and temporal patterns of reptile roadkill in the north-west Australian tropics

  Hastings, H.; Barr, James ; Bateman, Bill (2019)

  Roads present unavoidable challenges to wildlife, both in populated and in more remote regions. Both traffic infrastructure and road vehicles can have a detrimental impact on natural ecosystems and wildlife populations. ...
• Increased tail length in the King's skink, Egernia kingii (Reptilia: Scincidae): An anti-predation tactic for juveniles?

  Barr, James ; Somaweera, R.; Godfrey, S.S.; Bateman, Bill (2019)

  Caudal autotomy is an adaptive, but costly, anti-predation strategy used by many lizard species. As predation risk varies with ontogenetic life stage, it can be predicted that the use of costly anti-predation mechanisms ...
• When one tail isn't enough: abnormal caudal regeneration in lepidosaurs and its potential ecological impacts

  Barr, James ; Somaweera, R.; Godfrey, S.S.; Gardner, M.G.; Bateman, Bill (2020)

  Abnormal caudal regeneration, the production of additional tails through regeneration events, occurs in lepidosaurs as a result of incomplete autotomy or sufficient caudal wound. Despite being widely known to occur, ...
• Low Strain Rates Behaviour of Carbon Nanotube Enhanced Bagasse-Epoxy Polymer Composites for Dynamic Structure Applications

  Tan, Ke Khieng (2020)

  The demand for the high-performance natural fibre reinforced polymer composite is growing day by day. However, uneven micro-sized natural fibre like bagasse has causes low performance due to sensitive crack initiation and ...
• From “Union Power” to De-unionisation: Explaining the Rise and Fall of Trade Unionism in Western Australia’s Pilbara Iron Ore Industry and its Consequences

  Vassiley, Alexis (2020)

  This thesis examines the rise and fall of trade unionism in Western Australia’s Pilbara iron ore industry from 1965 to 1999, and its consequences for today. The Marxist theory of the trade union bureaucracy and rank and ...
• Development of a Hybrid Conceptual-Statistical Framework to Evaluate Catchment-Scale Water Balance

  Kazemi Alamouti, Hamideh (2021)

  The study introduces a novel framework that combines conceptual, hydrological and statistical models to study water resources on short-term and long-term scales. It improves the performance of a common conceptual model ...
• Covalently linked molecule–electrode contacts toward robust molecular-electronics circuits

  Peiris, Malwattage Chandramalika Rukmali (2020)

  The use of molecules as active components in electronic devices is a trend in current electronics and a potential alternative to the semiconductor-based nanoelectronics. This thesis provides a step forward in terms of ...
• Synthesis and Properties of Layered g-C3N4 and Their Applications

  Zhang, Xiao (2021)

  Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) as a metal-free photocatalyst is a prevalent photocatalyst used for visible light driven catalysis. This thesis focuses on synthesis and characterization of layered g-C3N4 based materials ...
• The Impact of Constructive Alignment on the Development of Competencies in Accounting Education

  Irafahmi, Diana Tien (2021)

  This study examines the impact of constructive alignment on the development of accounting students’ technical and non-technical competencies. The study uses a counterbalancing two-phase mixed-methods experimental design. ...
