Abstract:

Contact of fuels with engine components at low and elevated temperatures for various amounts of time is found to be challenging as this contact has several effects on engine fuel system components and fuels. Also, storage of fuels for a long period of time is found to have almost the same effect on both engine components and fuels upon engine use. In this thesis fuel and engine components’ contact have been studied for four typical metals used in the construction of many engine fuel systems; in form of pure or alloys (copper, aluminium, mild carbon steel and stainless steel), studied after con

Abstract:

Every sub-component of a diesel injector must perform optimally to ensure maximum fuel economy and minimum particulate and carbon-dioxide emissions. Continually developing emissions standards will drive manufacturers to guarantee fuel system performance for a significant period of the unit lifetime. Key to implementing such systems will be the ability to compensate for unit changes in use. This thesis investigates possibilities for developing existing unit and sub-component characterization techniques to enable robust performance over an extended duration.

Abstract:

The following research thesis focuses on methods of controlling nitrogen oxides (NO_x) and particulate matter (PM) emissions emitted from a low temperature diesel exhaust. This involves studying the influence of hydrogen (H₂) on various aftertreatment devices such as hydrocarbon selective catalytic reduction (HC-SCR) over silver-alumina (Ag-Al₂O₃) catalysts for lean NO_x reduction, platinum diesel oxidation catalysts (DOC) for nitrogen dioxide (NO₂) production and passive regeneration methods for the diesel particulate filter (DPF). H₂ was implemented on-board either through diesel exhaust gas

Abstract:

Improving the efficiency and performance of vehicle propulsion systems has always been desirable, and with increasing environmental awareness this has become increasingly topical. A particularly strong focus today is at fossil-free alternatives, and there is a strong trend for electrification. Hybrid powertrains of different types can bring benefits in certain aspects, and there is a lot of research and development involved in the making of a new powertrain. In this thesis, a complete powertrain for a fuel cell hybrid electric vehicle is modeled, with the intention of contributing to this tren

Abstract:

PEM Fuel Cells are expected to gradually substitute internal combustion engines as electrical and co-generation power sources thanks to high efficiency, low operating temperature, fast startup time and favourable power-to-weight ratio. However, while PEMFCs have achieved significant progresses in the last decade, their short lifetime and high cost still continue to impede large-scale commercialization. The first subject of the present work had been the study of the PEM fuel cells degradation mechanisms with the aim of: a) find out the most relevant phenomena concerning the fuel cell life

Abstract:

The fuel industry in many parts of the world is blending alcohols with motor fuel either to extend the fuel or to improve its octane rating or both. Unfortunately alcohols are hygroscopic and as a result, water becomes a component of the fuel. This can lead to phase separation and the formation of a water-rich layer which could have serious corrosion consequences. In an attempt to understand the phase-splitting in alcohol-petrol-water blends, phase equilibria in ternary systems (alcohol-hydrocarbon-water) have been determined by experiment. The phase equilibria in these ternary systems are als

Two new methods for the simulation of gas turbine fuel systems, one based on an inter-component volume (ICV) method, and the other based on the iterative Newton Raphson (NR) method, have been developed in this study. They are able to simulate the performance behaviour of each of the hydraulic components such as pumps, valves, metering unit of a fuel system, using physics-based models, which potentially offer more accurate results compared with those using transfer functions. A transient performance simulation system has been set up for gas turbine engines based on an inter-component volume (IC

This thesis contains two projects - the development of a Raman fibre amplifier system for gas sensing and the development of a fibre-in beam-out isolator for use with fibre lasers. The first project developed a fibre Raman amplifier which amplified a 10mW narrow linewidth DFB laser at 1651nm to an output power of over 2W. To achieve this high output power from a narrow linewidth Raman amplifier mechanisms to suppress stimulated Brillouin scattering had to be employed. This amplifier system was packaged into a portable 19” rack enclosure and used to demonstrate remote, single-end, tuneable diod

Abstract:

The soil inhabiting organism Plasmodiophora brassicae infects brassica crops causing millions of pounds of damage each year. The result of infection is extensive galling of the root system and eventually plant death. Current control measures are limited and the variability of the pathogen and its lifecycle makes finding new controls difficult. It was therefore considered that if several measures could be identified which reduced P. brassicae infection then they could be used in combination, reducing the possibility that the pathogen could evolve to overcome the controls.

A series of selected essential hydrophobic amino acids, L-Valine, L-Leucine and L-Isoleucine were studied to prepare novel co-crystalline forms for comparison with their pure forms. The crystals of these amino acid complexes were characterised by various techniques including spectroscopy, thermal and X-ray diffraction. The analysis has confirmed the formation of three new co-crystals of L-Leucine-L-Isoleucine (compound 1), L-Valine-L-Leucine (compound 2) and L-Valine-L-Isoleucine (compound 3), the first co-crystals of naturally occurring hydrophobic amino acids with the same chirality.

Abstract:

This thesis investigates the dynamic characteristics of the Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex (VOR) in particular the rapid components of eye movements induced by head rotations in the horizontal plane. The VOR is a reflex eye movement that serves to provide a stabilized perception of the external environment in response to head movement. The reflex originates in the vestibular sensors in both inner ears, in particular the semicircular canals for the angular VOR. The afferent sensory signals eventually drive the appropriate eye movements by sending motoneural signals to the eye plant(s). The VOR resp

However, activation by AMPs is observedwhen C. rodentium PhoP/PhoQ was expressed in as. typhimurium background. Weidentified an outer membrane protease of the omptin family that was responsible forinhibiting PhoQ activation by AMPs.

Abstract:

Unhealthy food consumption is impulsively driven by a "hot" cue-induced process that is tied to an attentional bias to rewarding cues. Consumers are also able to rely on a "cold" executive process to control their eating behaviour. This thesis proposes that executive control consists of component processes, including selective attention, inhibitory control, and mental flexibility. A dynamic interaction between these components and an attentional bias toward rewarding cues can be reflected in impaired executive functions.

Abstract:

In this research, a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) sensor was investigated for specific detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) for point-of-care (POC) diagnosis of the physiological conditions of humans. A PEMFC is an electrochemical transducer that converts chemical energy into electrical energy. A Redox reaction takes place at its electrodes whereas the volatile biomolecules (e.g. ethanol) are oxidized at the anode and ambient oxygen is reduced at the cathode. The compounds which were the focus of this investigation were ethanol (C2H5OH) and isoflurane (C3H2ClF5O), but th
