Wilderness, camera, action: conservation, commercialisation and change in National Parks landscapes (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Porter, N. (2015, September). Wilderness, camera, action: conservation, commercialisation and change in National Parks landscapes

How is wilderness defined, and how do such definitions change over time? It has long been recognised that the idea of wilderness and perceptions of nature in general, are socially, politically, culturally and legally constructed. In this paper, a hig...

A design tool for rapid, multi-domain virtual prototyping of power electronic systems (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Evans, P. L., Castellazzi, A., & Johnson, C. M. (2015, September). A design tool for rapid, multi-domain virtual prototyping of power electronic systems. Presented at 2015 IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition, ECCE 2015, QC, Canada

The need for multidisciplinary virtual prototyping in power electronics has been well established however design tools capable of facilitating a rapid, iterative virtual design process do not exist. A key challenge in developing such tools is identif... Read More about A design tool for rapid, multi-domain virtual prototyping of power electronic systems.

Technology review of thermal forming techniques for use in composite component manufacture (2015)
Journal Article
Land, P., Crossley, R., Branson, D. T., & Ratchev, S. (2016). Technology review of thermal forming techniques for use in composite component manufacture. SAE International Journal of Aerospace, 9(1), https://doi.org/10.4271/2015-01-2610

There is a growing demand for composites to be utilised in the production of large-scale components within the aerospace industry. In particular the demand to increase production rates indicates that traditional manual methods are no longer sufficien...

This paper investigates the effect of processing temperature and time on the rheological properties of recycled tyre rubber-modified bitumens (RTR-MBs) produced using two different base binders and an ambient ground crumb rubber modifier (CRM). The p... Read More about Rubberised bitumen manufacturing assisted by rheological measurements.

Improvement of pavement foundation response with multi-layers of geocell reinforcement: cyclic plate load test (2015)
Journal Article
Khalaj, O., Tafreshi, S. N. M., Mask, B., & Dawson, A. (2015). Improvement of pavement foundation response with multi-layers of geocell reinforcement: cyclic plate load test. Geomechanics and Engineering, 9(3), https://doi.org/10.12989/gae.2015.9.3.373

Comprehensive results from cyclic plate loading at a diameter of 300 mm supported by layers of geocell are presented. The plate load tests were performed in a test pit measuring in plane and 700 mm in depth. To simulate half and full traffic loadings...

Green corrosion inhibitors: amino acids and plant extracts (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Elphick, D., Ajayi, O., Everitt, N., & Voisey, K. Green corrosion inhibitors: amino acids and plant extracts. Presented at European Federation of Corrosion Congress (Eurocorr 2015)

Corrosion inhibitors are chemicals that are used in many industries to control corro-sion. As they are injected into process streams they have to be continually replen-ished in order to maintain protection. Many chemicals used are environmentally un-...
