Experimental Study of Tire Inner Liner
… were observed in field tested tire inner liners. When two versions of the material were studied with specialized Adkins Creep Fixtures, it was found that cracks developed parallel to the loading direction in samples tested at cold temperatures (-40 C in this study). Also, an experimental …

A study of the friction (piston-liner interaction) in internal combustion engines using a Floating Liner Engine
… trends related to the oil control ring and the liner surface. The Floating Liner Engine is used in this study to isolate results from different components. The data collected can be used for comparative analysis and to identify trends in the friction trace. The thesis starts with describing the …

Field Performance of Exposed Geosynthetic Composite Liner Systems
Geosynthetic clay liners (GCL) overlain by a geomembrane (GMB) in a geosynthetic composite liner system in landfill liner and other waste containment applications can be left exposed for weeks, months, or in some extreme cases, even years. Three known consequences of leaving a GMB-GCL composite …

Liner characterisation and leak detection using electrical resistivity techniques
… to be effective in determining leakages in the liner. The test results have also been presented for the leakage of Bayer liquor obtained from aluminium manufacturing company in Western Australia. The resistivity values were found to range from 1 to 3 Ωm. A similar trend in the resistivity values …

Default Bayesian model determination for generalised liner mixed models
In this thesis, an automatic, default, fully Bayesian model determination strategy for GLMMs is considered. This strategy must address the two key issues of default prior specification and computation.<br/><br/>Default prior distributions for the model parameters, that are based on a unit …

Effect of liner thickness on acoustic wave propagation in ducts
… characteristics of a point-reacting duct liner that consists of a porous facing sheet backed by cellular cavities are derived by examining the wave propagation within the liner. The relation between the derived expression for the liner acoustic admittance and a semi-empirical formula that …
