This study investigates how different test parameters—such as flow rate, soil type, moisture content, and confining conditions—affect the erosion behavior of soils. Through controlled hydraulic erosion tests, the research identifies key factors influencing critical shear stress and erosion rates. The findings aim to enhance understanding of soil stability in engineering applications and inform the design of erosion-resistant structures.

Internal combustion engines are extensively used in various modes of transportation, including ships and cars. However, their operation generated significant noise, which can disrupt daily life and poses health risks. Prolonged exposure to noise can lead to insomnia, cardiovascular diseases, and even death, making noise pollution a growing social concern.

This work demonstrated the potential of US for mitigating membrane fouling. However, the integration of the US transducers within the membrane system will be a major challenge for the application of US in membrane cleaning. It is more appropriate that US is used as pre-treatment to the membrane system, the transducers can be placed prior to the coagulant feed line. Further work on the determination of the detailed mechanisms associated with enhancing coagulation would enable optimisation of the system with regard to process, cost and energy efficiency.

The aim of this Master of Engineering (MEng) - Aerospace thesis is to study the structural response and failure of aerospace grade composites during exposure to fire. Key aspects of the research are to analyse the thermal and mechanical responses of laminates and sandwich composites in high temperature and fire environments, which result in softening and structural failure. The research is concentrated on carbon/epoxy laminates and sandwich composites, which are the most common composite materials used in aerospace structures.
