Abstract:
This thesis considers the use of chaos concepts in investigating the dynamics of two discontinuously nonlinear mechanical systems having two degrees of freedom. The nonlinearity considered is in the form of a discontinuous stiffness effect, and can cause the systems to exhibit chaotic motion. The first system is a rotor system with a bearing clearance effect. The second is a nonlinear vibration absorber, comprising a conventional linear absorber and a linear snubber stiffness, which the auxiliary mass intermittently contacts. Numerical integration is used in solving the equations of motion for

Abstract:
Trains need to be bigger and faster, which places strains on the interface between them and the infrastructure. This thesis examines the nature of one of these interfaces, namely clearance or gauging. There is little published work on the management of clearances beyond regulatory documents. This thesis considered many aspects of the engineering of clearance to develop a mathematic simulation of the gap between moving trains and the infrastructure. It proposes the concept of replacing gauge clearance with a comparison between measured infrastructure and dynamic simulations of trains. The thesi

Full text
Abstract:
The Highland Clearances have featured in many historical analyses over the past thirty years and have particularly attracted the attention of socio-economic historians interested in the study of agricultural changes, their causes and multi-faceted impact on the Highland region and society. Yet it seems that the increasingly refined knowledge that the period now enjoys has hardly percolated down to the popular interpretation given of the events. The present study concerns itself with the popular representations of the Highland Clearances which, to a large extent, are consensual and are revealin

Abstract:
The primary aim of this thesis was to evaluate and improve upon the methods of estimating and measuring small solute clearances in chronic kidney disease. The first part of this thesis addresses the difficult issue of when dialysis should be started in end stage renal disease.  Survival of patients after starting dialysis was assessed retrospectively and no benefit was observed in starting dialysis at a higher level of renal function when patient survival was expressed without the effect of lead-time bias. The relationship between residual renal function, reported uraemic symptoms and the deci

Abstract:
In this study a fiber optic interferometer (FOI) was designed and constructed to measure micron level clearances occurring in piston cylinder arrangements. A Cartesian model of the piston cylinder assembly is manufactured and lateral motion and vertical displacement are generated via a step motor, and micrometers, respectively. Clearance measurements are conducted in air and also in a lubricant. The range of vertical displacements is kept between 0-50 &amp<br>#956<br>m, and the lateral motion is 13.5 mm. The effect of the step motor and lateral motion carriage on distance measurement is determ
