A diffuse interface model of interfaces: Grain boundaries in silicon nitride
(Elsevier BV, 2005)A diffuse-interface model for interfaces in multi-component systems with energetic contributions from chemistry, defects, structure, orientation, electrostatics and gradients is proposed. The energy minimizing profiles of ... -
Beachgoers’ ability to identify rip currents at a beach in situ
(2020)Rip currents (“rips”) are the leading cause of drowning on surf beaches worldwide. A major contributing factor is that many beachgoers are unable to identify rip currents. Previous research has attempted to quantify ... -

Thermodynamic properties of gases
(University of Canterbury, 1975)In chemical engineering, there is a need to understand p-V-T-x properties of gases for design purposes. These properties have been the subject of study since the classical work of Robert Boyle in 1662. Other major advances ... -
The spontaneous heating of coal: large scale laboratory assessment and supporting theory
(University of Canterbury, 1991)In this thesis the spontaneous heating of coal is considered to be the phenomena in which a sufficiently large quantity of coal (often many tonnes), will rise from ambient temperature and eventually go on fire if exposed ...
