(2018)This thesis presents the effects of shear heating generated by creeping faults on the onset and pattern of hydrothermal convection. The implementation of a numerical stability analysis using the pseudo-arclength continuation ...
-
(2019)Precast segmental concrete column has many advantages, but its applications are limited due to insufficient knowledge about its seismic performance. This thesis aims to investigate the seismic performance of precast ...
-
(2019)In this research, the application of Artificial Intelligence and knowledge engineering, automation of equipment arrangement design, automation of piping and support design, using machine learning to automate the stress ...
-
(2018)This research investigated how to design “activist spatial experiences” to communicate contemporary political narratives of under-resourced or misrepresented people. The research involved designing a prototype that was ...
-
(2018)The two-centre convergent close-coupling (CCC) approach is used to calculate antihydrogen formation cross sections via positronium scattering on antiprotons. These cross sections have been expressed in terms of simple ...
-
(2018)The aim of this research was to develop land unit scale data to assist land condition monitoring projects in pastoral rangelands in Western Australia. Landforms are a major components of land units and methods were explored ...
-
(2018)Mineral industry uses potential-field methods to explore shallow-seated resources. As deposits are getting deeper, alternative technologies are needed. Seismic reflection is the only surface method reaching the desired ...
-
(2017)This study explores the work experiences of thirty-one successful senior women in the resources sector of Western Australia. Career success was found to be contingent on a) believing in oneself, b) the belief of others ...
-
(2019)Sophisticated three dimensional (3D) hydro-mechanical finite element (FE) models are developed to address the major shortcomings of the current design methods of stiffened slab foundations on reactive soils. The models ...
-
(2018)A comprehensive experimental and analytical study is done on tribological behaviour of elastomers. According to the results, ascending rate of wear and friction changes with variation of operating variables and mechanical ...
