Abstract:
Modern infrastructure and industrial plants have a finite design life. Their effective and profitable operation depends on well organised maintenance and condition assessments. Non-destructive evaluation and inspection is a key tool for condition assessment. However, despite best efforts, full inspection coverage of a plant is not always possible because of access problems, time constraints and limited budgets. Many inspection companies are beginning to use partial coverage inspection (PCI) techniques to solve this problem. PCI describes the use of inspection data collected from a small area o

Abstract:
This licentiate thesis describes experimental techniques related to the investigation of elastohydrodynamic lubrication of point contacts as well as measurements and evaluation of results from laboratory tests. Elastohydrodynamic lubrication is one of the most severe forms of lubrication when a medium (often a liquid) is expected to separate two surfaces in a mechanical device under extremely high pressures and shear strain rates as well as with very thin lubricant films. These criteria set high demands on both the surfaces themselves and the lubricant. In order to simulate elastohydrodynamic

Abstract:
In cold rolling the interface between the roll and strip, known as the roll bite, is key to the finish and geometry of rolled products. This interface is complex and operates in the mixed regime with part asperity contact and part fluid film. The factors which affect this are of interest to the cold rolling community. The inaccessibility of the interface has made direct measurement of its condition difficult. In this thesis ultrasonic approaches have been developed to measure the state of the roll bite, in-situ and in real time. The thesis starts by introducing the background theory underpinni

Abstract:
This thesis is divided into three main parts. In the first, we discuss that, although permutation tests can provide exact control of false positives under the reasonable assumption of exchangeability, there are common examples in which global exchangeability does not hold, such as in experiments with repeated measurements or tests in which subjects are related to each other. To allow permutation inference in such cases, we propose an extension of the well known concept of exchangeability blocks, allowing these to be nested in a hierarchical, multi-level definition. This definition allows permu

The exact mechanism of the discharge in liquids ignition is not sufficiently known up to now. Although during the last years was achieved the great progress and overloading which some of them are written in this theoretical part of thesis. This thesis is divided into two experimental parts. When the first part deals with diagnostics of diaphragm discharge in electrolyte solutions and the second part is focused on its use for uncoiling (higher homogenization) of carbon nanotubes in solutions. In experiment 1, three different sized (4 l, 100 ml, 50 ml) diaphragm discharge configurations were use

Abstract:
Bibliography: leaves 325-341. Skin and fleece measurements were recorded at different ages for both male and female sheep from the Turretfield Merino Resource Flock and used to estimate the heritability of each trait and the phenotypic and genetic correlations among and between the skin and fleece traits. Generally, the heritability of each trait was high, which indicates that both the fleece and skin traits should respond well to selection.

Abstract:
Background: Fat distribution, rather than total body fat, has been identified as a significant risk factor for chronic disease. Patterning of subcutaneous fat, in particular, may play a pervasive role in shaping the metabolic milieu that is critical for disease development. Several studies have shown that early-life nutrition may influence later body composition. The effect of breastfeeding and formula feeding on early patterns of subcutaneous fat deposition, however, are uncertain. Objective: At a time when early infant growth is emerging as a predictor for later chronic disease, it is the ai

For the software, we used novel Genetic Algorithm to design our program. For the hardware, we proposed a polarization phase shifting interferometer based on Twyman-Green interferometer structure. In our arrangement, the low coherence light source is composed of a mercury lamp, which is a polychromatic light source and covering the visible spectral range, and a narrow band pass filter to create a Gaussian power spectral

This study attempted to use the current technique of the clinical examination to improve diagnosis not only by the evolving technology but also by the mathematical progressing. Methods and results We assume the carotid arterial wall is the elastic material so we can use the Hooke''s law to analyze it. The experiment is based on the use of ultrasound B-mode imaging tec
