The principles of Tribology are introduced to the general problem of tyre-soil interaction with a view to development of a better knowledge of the manner in which the tyre-soil interface behaves under rolling motion subjected to tractive force. In essence,…

The experimental work presented in this thesis explores, in anaesthetized and mid-collicular decerebrate, unanesthetized, cats, the properties of two components of the discharge of sympathetic nerves which are time-locked to the central respiratory cycle and are presumably generated within the…

Solid residues are generated at various stages of metal production. Some of these residues still contain significant quantities of metals. In determining possible process routes for residues a detailed knowledge of the mineralogy (i.e. the minerals or phases present) is…
