Mathematica and finite geometry (1995)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gordon, N. Mathematica and finite geometry. Presented at International Mathematica Symposium

We describe the use of Mathematica in the investigation of some aspects of finite geometry, in particular we look at an example of finding a single polynomial function corresponding to a set of polynomial functions, and an example of finding the PGL(...

Historical origins of accounting : the contributions of Iraq and ancient Mesopotamia (1995)
Thesis
Mosa, F. H. Historical origins of accounting : the contributions of Iraq and ancient Mesopotamia. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4219504

The origin of modern accounting is an unsettled phenomenon. Several scholars have traced that origin to the ancient Greece, to India, to Mesopotamia, and Egypt. There is no systematic study of the role which each ancient community has played in the d... Read More about Historical origins of accounting : the contributions of Iraq and ancient Mesopotamia.

Finite element analysis of conformal contacts in water hydraulic axial piston pumps incorporating advanced ceramic materials (1995)
Thesis
McConnachie, J. Finite element analysis of conformal contacts in water hydraulic axial piston pumps incorporating advanced ceramic materials. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4219093

The use of water as a hydraulic fluid in a pump necessitates the use of conformal contacts to reduce the high rates of wear and leakage losses that result from the low viscosity and lubricity of water. Swashplate type axial piston pumps are ideal in... Read More about Finite element analysis of conformal contacts in water hydraulic axial piston pumps incorporating advanced ceramic materials.

Behavioral reproductive isolation among sympatric strains of Brachionus plicatilis Müller 1786: insights into the status of this taxonomic species (1995)
Journal Article
Gomez, A., & Serra, M. (1995). Behavioral reproductive isolation among sympatric strains of Brachionus plicatilis Müller 1786: insights into the status of this taxonomic species. Hydrobiologia, 313-314(1), 111-119. https://doi.org/10.1007/bf00025938

We present results on cross-mating experiments using Brachionus plicatilis strains collected in three ponds of a coastal marsh (Torreblanca Marsh, Castellón, Spain). These strains were known to differ widely both in morphology and allozyme patterns f...

Internal differentiation techniques are used to produce a simple but highly accurate forwardsshootingmethod foreigenvaluesandexpectationvaluesof the Schrödinger equation. A multi-well potential is used as a test case.

Natural vegetation of the sand seas of central and northern Saudi Arabia : a biogeographic study (1995)
Thesis
Al-Nafie, A. H. Natural vegetation of the sand seas of central and northern Saudi Arabia : a biogeographic study. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4216625

This study is the first quantitative and qualitative attempt to evaluate the vegetation (the flowering plants) of the sand dunes of central and northern Saudi Arabia. Both the existence and the development of vegetation cover on the sand dunes are de...

Educational reform as a development strategy : the experience of Ghana (1995)
Thesis
Dare, A. L. Educational reform as a development strategy : the experience of Ghana. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4215453

In 1957, when Ghana became independent, development was being identified with economic growth. Consequently, Ghana introduced educational innovations aimed at providing qualified personnel to facilitate economic growth and thus accelerate national de...

Gender, development and social change in Rote, eastern Indonesia (1995)
Thesis
Noach-Patty, M. A. Gender, development and social change in Rote, eastern Indonesia. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4213271

This thesis explores gender relations in the island of Rote in Indonesia. It examines Rotenese social organization and the role of women in development. In this case the researcher is of the same culture of the people being studied: the analysis is d... Read More about Gender, development and social change in Rote, eastern Indonesia.

Reproductive identity and the proper woman : the response of urban women to AIDS in Uganda (1995)
Thesis
Ogden, J. A. Reproductive identity and the proper woman : the response of urban women to AIDS in Uganda. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4210782

This thesis considers the extent to which factors involved in women's reproductive identity construction constrain their capacity to protect themselves from HIV infection. It proposes that currently available prevention methods are impracticable for... Read More about Reproductive identity and the proper woman : the response of urban women to AIDS in Uganda.

Electroless deposition of group eight metals (1995)
Thesis
Hyland, L. Electroless deposition of group eight metals. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4210744

Electroless plating is the controlled chemical reduction of metals without the use of an applied external potential. The use of electroless plating has a number of advantages over electroplating including the ability to deposit coatings onto complex-... Read More about Electroless deposition of group eight metals.
