Positive size and scale effects of all-cellulose composite laminates
(University of Canterbury. Mechanical Engineering, 2016)Negative size effects are commonly reported for advanced composite materials where the strength of the material decreases with increasing volume of the test specimen. In this work, the effect of increasing specimen volume ... -
Complementary characterization data in support of uniaxially aligned electrospun nanocomposites based on a model PVOH-epoxy system
(University of Canterbury. Mechanical Engineering, 2016)This paper presents complementary data corresponding to characterization tests done for our research article entitled “Uniaxially aligned electrospun fibers for advanced nanocomposites based on a model PVOH-epoxy system” ... -
Using citizen science for coastal data collection
(New Zealand Coastal Society, 2016)Citizen science has come of age in New Zealand and there are a wide range of opportunities for coastal scientists and practitioners to make use of, or contribute to it. This article provides an overview of some recent ... -
Potential roles for coastal protected areas in disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation: a case study of dune management in Christchurch, New Zealand
(IUCN, Gland, Switzerland, 2014)Dunes provide a range of benefits for coastal hazard management. This includes protection from erosion, inundation, and storm surge events, and may include disaster risk reduction benefits in large magnitude events. However, ... -
Development of a fine-scale salinity model for the Avon Heathcote Estuary Ihutai
(2016)The focus of this study is on understanding salinity changes in the vicinity of the freshwater-saltwater interface in estuarine ecosystems. In these areas, species, habitats and ecosystems that are adapted to brackish ...
