An approach of compartmentalisation in development of non-isothermal chemical reactor network models for the high speed simulation of iso-octane combustion by Khan, Zamier Ahmed

“…The reduced kinetic model was also further validated using Rapid Compression Machine data. The current study also modified the methodology for developing a CRN in order to make the CRN more predictive as compared to previous studies. …”

Two contrasting approaches to auto-ignition modelling for HCCI engines by Floweday, Gareth

“…This body of work entailed the broad contrasting of two hydrocarbon fuel auto-ignition models formulated for the emulation of combustion dynamics in Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) engines. The first (empirical) auto-ignition model was adapted from its previously published form, for HCCI engine model implementation. …”

An investigation of the effect of dynamic and static loading to geosynthetic reinforced pavements overlying a soft subgrade by Kiptoo, Dennis Kipngetich

“…Construction of roads over soft soils can lead to design and construction related problems linked to the soil's compressibility characteristics and low strength. Failure, in terms of bearing capacity can occur when pavements are constructed over such soft soils. …”

Investigating the feasibility of characterising gasoline autoignition using a motored engine apparatus by Demnitz, Simon

“…Further recommendation is that a variable compression ratio engine should be used to enable the attainment of a wider range of readings for fuel characterisation and possibly eradicate the problems experienced with fuelling.…”
