Modelling and experimental investigation of Structured Optical Fibres: Optimisation of drawing conditions
… of SOFs and to develop an appropriate and simple analytical model to predict the optimum drawing conditions for the SOF fabrication. In this study, a rigorous experimental investigation was first conducted to understand the structure formation dynamics of SOFs during the drawing process. …

Analysis of the propulsion and manoeuvring characteristics of survey-style AUVs and the development of a multi-purpose AUV
… angles. The results are used to develop a new, simple modelling procedure representing the performance of tunnel thrusters on an AUV which facilitates the incorporation of the characteristics of tunnel thrusters into numerical simulations of AUV performance. Such a simulation is used to examine …

Modelling biological networks : topology, dynamics and generation
… conducted using a combination of mathematical modelling, statistical simulation and large-scale data analysis. Our results indicated LRCs to be regulatory attenuators in GRNS, and were found to be absent from or rare in GRNs of E. coli K12, Mycobateria tuberculosis, yeasts and human non-cancer …

Defining, measuring and regulating energy security
… to demand, we examine how accurately different modelling approaches and metrics capture this concept. We find most of the wide-spread indicators, such as import shares, concentration measures and composite indicators based on expert elicitation are very rough heuristics that can easily be shown …

Towards a theory for the emergence of grid and place cell codes
… such a question, an approach that goes beyond a simple modelling is necessary given the fact that there could be circuit solutions other than grid or place cells that better perform these functions. With this reasoning, I adopted a systematic guideline that aims for an optimization principle …

Evaluation of Smallmouth Bass Introductions in South Dakota Lakes
… (�180 mm) smallmouth bass were generated from simple modelling to help illustrate these interactions and provide a basis for further assessment of harvest regulations. Limnological data were collected from five eastern South Dakota lakes in 1989 and were examined in relation to smallmouth bass …

Green water and loading on high speed containerships
… investigated with the purpose of developing a modelling framework that can practically guide naval architects to a better understanding of this problem and improvements in design. The research began by reviewing extensive publications relevant to the understanding of green water, limitations in …

Cosmic-ray neutron sensing for soil moisture measurements in cropped fields
… moderation. This effect was accounted for by a simple model for neutron corrections due to vegetation. It followed crop development and reduced overall CRS soil moisture error for periods of sunflower and winter rye. In Potsdam farmland also inversely-estimated soil hydraulic parameters were …

Mineralogical and geochemical characterisation of phosphogypsum waste material and its potential for use as backfill at WMC Fertilizers' Mine site, Phosphate Hill, N-W Queensland
… in the southern part of the aquifer. Basic simple modelling of the effects of a sulphate-rich solution mixing with the groundwater at its current quality suggests that the sulphate may reach levels of concern for human consumption (i.e. >500mg/l) with an input of contaminated fluid the …
