Evaluation and analysis of wear in progressive cavity pumps (2003)
Thesis
Whittaker, L. V. (2003). Evaluation and analysis of wear in progressive cavity pumps. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4212266

Progressive cavity pumps are used in the transportion of slurries. The pumping element consists of a single helical rotor, which intermeshes with a double helical resilient stator, to create the moving cavities that transport the slurry. Both compone...

Evaluation of rolling contact fatigue resistance for coated components (2003)
Thesis
Yang, Y. (2003). Evaluation of rolling contact fatigue resistance for coated components. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4215760

The thesis reviews and studies current evaluation mechanisms, techniques and machines for testing rolling contact fatigue failure resistance and load capacity of coated components. The thesis investigates both normal and accelerated rolling contact f... Read More about Evaluation of rolling contact fatigue resistance for coated components.

Formation and properties of alumina coatings (1997)
Thesis
Schneider, J. M. (1997). Formation and properties of alumina coatings. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4216232

Investigations concerning the microstructure and mechanical properties, composition and chemical bonding of alumina coatings have been performed. Alumina coatings have been deposited by both ionized reactive magnetron sputtering (IMS) and conventiona... Read More about Formation and properties of alumina coatings.

An investigation into the effect of process parameters on carbon film physical properties produced by different deposition techniques (1994)
Thesis
Dehbi-Alaoui, A. (1994). An investigation into the effect of process parameters on carbon film physical properties produced by different deposition techniques. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4215388

This thesis reports research to investigate the effect of process parameters on the physical properties of carbon films produced using different deposition techniques. The deposition techniques utilised are a FAB source, an r.f./d.c. EBPVD system and...

A tribological and mechanical study of ion assisted diamond-like carbon thin films (1992)
Thesis
Holiday, P. S. (1992). A tribological and mechanical study of ion assisted diamond-like carbon thin films. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4220306

Amorphous hydrogenated carbon (a-C:H), diamond & diamond-like (DLC) thin films are some of the many terms used when referring to the generic group of coatings based on hard carbon. They are an emerging technological area within the surface coating di... Read More about A tribological and mechanical study of ion assisted diamond-like carbon thin films.

An investigation into phenomena which influence the optimisation of ion plating systems (1989)
Thesis
Fancey, K. S. (1989). An investigation into phenomena which influence the optimisation of ion plating systems. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4210327

Ion plating involves the transportation of vapour through a low pressure glow discharge to form solid coatings on negatively biased substrates. Although the method has gained commercial acceptance, particularly for engineering applications, much of t...
