Pathogenesis of post surgical adhesions and prevention using a novel fibrin sealant
… this thesis utilised standard and reproducible abrasion models, in rabbits, pigs and rats, to investigate the formation and maturation of PSAs with strict quantitative analyses. These studies have shown that the development of PSAs is a series of complex, multi-factorial processes. PSA …

Feedback between erosional morphology, sediment transport and abrasion in the transient adjustment of fluvial bedrock channels
… channel morphology. Predictions of the saltation-abrasion model (Sklar and Dietrich, 2004) for sediment flux-dependent channel incision guide our efforts although the results are not model dependent. In channels where the dominant incision process is sediment abrasion, sediment transport and …

Abrasion resistance of concrete and the use of high performance concrete for concrete railway crossties
This project focused on the abrasion resistance of concrete railway crossties. In the first phase of this project, a series of high performance concrete mixes was developed that utilized different replacement levels of portland cement by silica fume (3%, 7% and 15%), class F fly ash (18%) and slag …
