(2020)This study aims to extend knowledge of corporate co-evolution by drawing on the development trajectories that have taken place among government-business networks in the state-dominant business environment of Myanmar. From ...
-
(2020)This thesis examined the physical and chemical properties of soil mixes incorporating 25%, 50%, 75% and 88% waste rock and tested the influence of these properties on plant growth and development and early seedling growth. ...
-
(2020)A study of shale gas is conducted to investigate the influencing factors of the fundamental pore structure interpretations in shale gas reservoirs. The results reveal discrepancies between multi-scale techniques that are ...
-
(2020)Atom probe tomography (APT) is used to characterise the nanoscale geochemistry of complex zircon grains from different environments. New applications of APT to meteoritic, shocked and hydrothermal zircon grains are ...
-
(2020)This research work reports a series of new colloidal approaches for the synthesis of uniform Zn-based chalcogenide semiconductor nanocrystals, including 0D and 1D ZnS, ZnSe, ZnSxSe1-x nanocrystals. The influence of precursor ...
-
(2020)In the last decade, nanofluids-based techniques have shown tremendous promise in oil and gas industry. Nanofluids, dispersions of nanoparticles (NPs) in a base-fluid, have shown promises potentials in enhanced oil recovery ...
-
(2020)This research studies the optimisation of mono-ethylene glycol (MEG) regeneration chemistry and various corrosion inhibition topics related to natural gas pipelines. MEG, used for the inhibition of natural gas hydrate ...
-
(2019)The trace element geochemistry of rutile (TiO2) is routinely used to constrain the nature and timing of geological events. Its use is underpinned by knowledge of trace element distribution and mobility. In this thesis, ...
-
(2020)In order to enhance the ab initio molecular dynamics treatment of aqueous systems, the Boltzmann inversion directed simulation method was developed that derives a corrective bias to the system pairwise potential using ...
-
(2020)The aim of this research is to achieve a more comprehensive understanding of the underlying mechanisms of Low Salinity Effect in carbonate reservoirs through systematic analysis of physical, chemical, and geochemical ...
