  • Variable polarity plasma arc welding of high strength aluminium alloys 
    Serrano, G. L. (Cranfield University, 2004-12)
    The VPP A W process has been evaluated and optimised for the joining of high strength aluminium alloys AA-2024 T351, AA-7150 W51 and AA-7150 T651. The initial experimentation was performed with conventional AC-GTAW ...
  • Virtual groups - a new strategy for functional layouts 
    Prince, Jacob (Cranfield University, 2001-09)
    The research presented in this thesis identifies the need to develop a strategy specially designed to improve the operational performance of functional layouts. The traditional approach has been to replace functional layouts ...
  • Volatile diagnostic techniques for ventilator associated pneumonia 
    Humphreys, Martyn Lee (Cranfield University, 2010-02)
    Ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP) is a significant challenge for the Intensive Care doctors worldwide. It is both difficult to diagnose accurately and quickly and to treat effectively once the diagnosis has been ...
  • Water quality from contrasting drained clay soils : the relative importance of sorbed and aqueous phase transport mechanisms 
    Hardy, I. A. J. (Cranfield University, 1997)
    A full understanding of the processes controlling the movement of pesticides within the soil 1 water regime is critical to the successful reduction of losses of these substances to surface waters. Until recent years the ...
  • Water resources and water management in North East Nigeria 
    Carter, R. (Cranfield University, 1995)
    This thesis addresses some aspects of shallow groundwater resources, and the wider issues of water resources use and allocation, in the Yobe river basin, north east Nigeria. The studies reported here were carried out in ...
  • Water table control for rice production in Ghana 
    Owusu-Sekyere, Joshua Danso (Cranfield UniversityCranfield University at Silsoe, 2005-09)
    An investigation has been undertaken to determine the consequence of using water table control for lowland rice production by growing rice varieties Azucena and IR36 in sand cores under a controlled environment in a series ...
  • Welding C-Mn steels using the pulsed current MIG welding process 
    Foote, W. J. (Cranfield University, 1986-03)
    The welding of C-Mn steels using the pulsed current MIG welding process was investigated. Following initial work on the basic fusion characteristics, the process was applied to the production of closed butt joint linepipe ...
  • Wind tunnel techniques for reducing commercial vehicle aerodynamic drag 
    Garry, K. P. (Cranfield University, 1982-09)
    Increases in the price of petroleum fuels have significantly affected the importance of aerodynamic drag on commercial vehicle operating costs. The considerable savings to be made have resulted in: (i) the appearance ...
  • xtrusion of short fibre reinforced polyethylene pipes 
    Wilson, K. A. (Cranfield University, 1990-02)
    Short fibre reinforced thermoplastic pipe was produced by an extrusion process which oriented the fibre reinforcement predominantly into the pipe hoop direction. The fibre reinforcement was thereby used to maximise ...
