(2021)This research has focused on providing a deep understanding of the impact of effective stress on multiphase flow behaviour of subsurface fluid-rock systems. The results are insightful in quantifying and comparing such ...
-
(2021)Computational studies and a prototype half-bridge DC-DC converter capable of logistic-shaped switching transitions to achieve high-frequency electromagnetic interference mitigation is presented. The logistic-shaped ...
-
(2021)Thermal stress and water stress are two major environmental variables that affect seed germination, particularly in arid ecosystems. This study investigated the role of thermal stress and water stress in shaping the ...
-
(2021)Urbanisation frequently degrades wetlands via physical modifications, novel stressors and the introduction of pollutants. The health of wetlands can be measured through the use of bioindicators - such as top predators. ...
-
(2021)This thesis uses 40Ar/39Ar geochronology, geochemical analyses, and a series of other techniques to study the age and composition of basaltic rocks from the Kerguelen large igneous province and Macquarie Ridge Complex in ...
-
(2021)This study focused on developing models to predict the localized folding patterns in geomaterials. For this, we modify the Swift-Hohenbeg using the plate theory and propose a novel mathematical description for folding in ...
-
(2021)The hydrological regime of the Sibuti River is mainly controlled by rainfall associated with Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) and discharging into SW part of Miri coast, East Malaysia. The current study reveals that ...
-
(2021)It is essential to develop a long-lead streamflow forecast system for providing the prior signal for possible floods. Climatic variabilities such as oceanic-atmospheric global oscillations may possess tele-connectivity ...
-
(2021)Disinfection of drinking water is a vital step to generate pathogen-free water. Continuous electrochlorination (CEC) is emerging as an alternative to the traditional use of chlorine as a disinfectant for water treatment. ...

(2021)Older adults are susceptible to Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV). While BPPV can be treated efficaciously with repositioning manoeuvres, some patients may experience residual dizziness and other problems. It ...
