Response of plates subjected to air-blast and buried explosions by Curry, Richard

“…Extensive modifications to the blast pendulum to incorporate the cameras was necessary to adapt this technique in a different method to that used in previous literature. The mounting method proposed allowed the cameras to record the experiment while capturing the impulse imparted on a test plate using a blast pendulum. …”

An experimental analysis of the risk-trust confound by Chetty, Rinelle

“…Subjects were also found to subjectively distort probabilities, where subjects would overweight low probabilities and underweight moderate to high probabilities. Expected Utility models and Rank-Dependent Utility models show that risk and trust are statistically significantly related and that the reasons for trusting one's partner may have arisen out of an inner need to simply trust that person. …”

Nonlinear heat transfer and thermo mechanical stress analysis using finite elements. by Pennington, Derek Steven

“…Four, eight and nine noded isoparametric continuum finite elements with the option of the plane stress, plane strain and axisymetric cases are utilized. Nonlinear heat transfer due to temperature dependent thermal conductivity and/or internal heat generation is solved using an iterative method based on the Newton-Raphson algorithm. …”

On the local and global properties of information manifolds by Clingman, Tslil

“…In the first part of the work, we show a general relation between the spatially disjoint product of probability density functions and the sum of their Fisher information metric tensors. We then utilise this result to give a method for constructing the probability density functions for an arbitrary Riemannian Fisher information metric tensor given its associated Nash embedding. …”

Feral: Re-wilding the Urban Child through Process Driven Design and an Appreciation of Weeds by Rennie, Kathryn

“…It is a design that is on-going and that adapts to social and environmental change so that it evolves with the guiding hand of the designer. By utilising this method in the design of a public open space in Woodstock, this dissertation tests a new model for designing small scale urban parks that could be replicated throughout the Cape Town Metropolitan Area. …”
