  • Laboratory experimentation for the statistical derivation of equations for soil erosion modelling and soil conservation design. 
    Quansah, C. (Cranfield University, 1982-04)
    Since Ellison (1947) described the process of erosion as comprising a) the detachment of soil particles from the soil mass by raindrop impact, b) detachment by runoff, c) the transport of the detached particles by ...
  • Lag phases in the adsorption of lysozyme to Si(Ti)O2 surfaces in the presence of sodium thiocyanate. Part I. Phenomenology. 
    Ball, Vincent; Lustig, Ariel; Ramsden, Jeremy J. (Royal Society of Chemistry, 1999)
    The adsorption kinetics of hen egg white lysozyme (HEWL) in the presence of NaSCN at pH 7.4 onto Si0.8Ti0.2O2 surfaces were measured by means of time-resolved optical waveguide lightmode spectroscopy (OWLS). The adsorption ...
