Equity's roving commission in administrative law: An analysis of the present and potential role of equity in the relationship between local authorities and their service users
… of this analysis is to explore whether the roving commission of equity has any application to the public law field. Has equity died and shrivelled, or does equity still have the ability to flourish and accommodate new situations and changes in social morals and norms, ‘yet maintain its core …

Felted Objects via Robotic Additive Manufacturing
… machine. Samples were tested parallel to the roving fiber direction and perpendicular to the roving fiber direction. Additionally, two pieces of felt were attached to each other with needling, and these were tested with T-peel tests, pulling both in the direction of the roving fibers and …

Plug repairs of marine glass fiber / vinyl ester laminates subjected to in-plane shear stress or in-plane bending moment
… plug repairs of glass fiber / vinyl ester woven roving laminates subjected to in-plane shear and bending. An advantage of this type of repair scheme is its simplicity when compared to more traditional schemes such as scarf or step repairs. The stress concentrations around circular holes in glass …

Understanding Controlling Shareholder Regimes
… chapter, entitled Controlling Shareholders - "Roving" v. "Stationary," I explored two types of controlling shareholders (i.e., "roving" and "stationary" controllers) and delved into why an economy with stationary controllers is better in terms of corporate governance and more likely to be …

Sound localization and interaural time sensitivity with bilateral cochlear implants
… bilateral-CI listening using constant- and roving-level stimuli. For constant-level stimuli, increasing bilateral-listening experience improved all subjects' bilateral performance but degraded two subjects' monolateral performance. Using roving-level stimuli, increasing bilateral-listening …

Genetic Algorithms, Orthogonal Arrays and Diploid Chromosomes
… initialisation research the 'refocusing' and 'roving hypercube' operators were developed. The refocusing operator redraws the population of a genetic algorithm after a predetermined number of generations. Results showed it to be an effective operator, improving search performance in most cases. …

Damage identification in skeletal structures: A dynamic stiffness approach
… all need to be found. It has been shown that roving bodies with rotary inertia could be used to find the total number of cracks and their locations without any knowledge of their severity. The Dynamic Stiffness Method was chosen due to its capabilities in enabling an exact solution while …

Entwicklung mechanischer Modelle zur analytischen Beschreibung der Materialeigenschaften von textilbewehrtem Feinbeton
… modelling of the bond behaviour between roving and matrix after macro cracking a multiple linear shear stress-slip relation is used. This shear stress-slip relation considers adhesion, damage and failure of the interface between roving and matrix. Hence experimentally measured pullout …

A multi-channel system for use in cardiac electrophysiologic studies
… at Groote Schuur Hospital, using a hand-held roving electrode. This manual procedure is slow and tedious, prolonging the operation and the time for which the patient remains on cardiac bypass. A multichannel electrogram acquisition and display system with a storage facility would significantly …

Individual Differences in Pitch Perception
… on the use of a relatively wide frequency-roving range, and the possible origins of this effect were investigated in detail. A compelling hypothesis that emerged was that roving introduced random, irrelevant frequency changes to the stimulus ensemble that interfered with pitch-direction …

The behaviour of liquid movement in three dimensional weft knitted spacer fabrics
… were produced containing absorbent medium in roving (Tencel® and Viscostar®) and yarn (Tencel® and Oasis superabsorbent). Materials were evaluated for high absorbency using standard methods. Liquid spreading on the surface of the fabric was measured using conventional test methods, however to …

Plug repairs of marine glass fiber / vinyl ester laminates subjected to uniaxial tension
… holes in various glass fiber/vinyl ester woven roving laminates subjected to uniaxial tension are calculated before and after repairs using plug materials of different fiber volume fractions. The orthotropic laminates ranged from balanced to unidirectional woven rovings, and the chopped strand …

Effect of vacuum level on the vacuum-assisted resin transfer molding process
… flow. Permeability of M8610 mat and woven roving preform was measured using different liquids and vacuum levels. Effects of vacuum levels and liquid type was studied. The wetting out process of different preforms was experimentally investigated. Finally, experimental verification of a …

The payment and insurance of ransom: an analysis of legality, morality and possible solutions in the case of ship hijackings by pirates
… tales of one-legged and free-spirited men, roving the Caribbean Sea for bounty and gold. In recent years, however, a new type of pirate has emerged in one of the most lawless spots in the world. The pirates of Somalia increasingly threaten one of the busiest commercial shipping routes, thus …

Mechanical Properties of Polymer Modified Mortar
… an "E" glass fiber that is a continuous strand roving oriented and pre-tensioned longitudinally in an isopthalic polyester matrix material. The FRP rebar was compared to standard steel rebars, and found that the standard steel corrugated rebar had a higher adhesive strength, due to mechanical …

Use of Satellite Imagery and GIS to Model Brood-Rearing Habitat for Rio Grande Wild Turkey Populations Occurring in the Western Cross Timbers Region of Texas
… of Texas. Texas Parks and Wildlife (TPWD) random roving turkey counts for 1987-1989 and 1998-2000 were selected, indicating locations where hens with poults were observed. Satellite imagery from 1988 and 1999 was classified and then processed with Patch Analyst. To add robustness, stream, road and …

Using Vibration Analysis to Determine Refrigerant Levels In an Automotive Air Conditioning System
… conditioning bench test rig involved using the roving hammer method—forcing the structure with an impact hammer at many different points and measuring the resulting acceleration at one point on the structure. The measurements focused on finding the natural frequency at the accumulator bottle of …
