A programme of research is outlined which considers the foaming performance and foam behaviour of surfactant systems commonly encountered in hand-wash laundry detergent applications. An experimental study of the physical ...

Small angle x‐ray scattering (SAXS) has been measured in the wavevector range 0.01<Q<1 math−1 for supercooled yttria‐alumina melts using a laser‐heated aerodynamic furnace. SAXS intensity rises gradually with temperature ...

Transport earthwork structures are susceptible to instability which is caused by a build up of pore water pressure. As a result, earthwork instability has been linked to higher antecedent soil moisture conditions [1]. ...

Motivated by a result on weak Markov dilations, we define a notion of characteristic function for ergodic and coisometric row contractions with a one-dimensional invariant subspace for the adjoints. This extends a definition ...

We introduce characteristic functions for certain contractive liftings of row contractions. These are multi-analytic operators which classify the liftings up to unitary equivalence and provide a kind of functional model. ...

Woodchip corrals are increasingly used as cost effective means of over-wintering livestock in temperate regions but there is little information on their potential environmental impact. Four woodchip, corrals of varying ...
