Shear wave dispersion in mechanically self-similar gel networks (1998)
Journal Article
Williams, P. R., & Williams, R. L. (1998). Shear wave dispersion in mechanically self-similar gel networks. Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics, 31(9), 1083

A study of viscoelastic shear wave dispersion in a simulated gelation process involving mechanically self-similar nodal networks is reported. The network formed at the gel point (the infinite network cluster, or `critical gel') shares a common struct... Read More about Shear wave dispersion in mechanically self-similar gel networks.

Rheometrical aspects of the viscoelastic dispersion of shear waves in gel-like mechanical networks (1998)
Journal Article
Williams, P., & Williams, R. (1998). Rheometrical aspects of the viscoelastic dispersion of shear waves in gel-like mechanical networks. Journal of Non-Newtonian Fluid Mechanics, 78(2-3), 203-225. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0377-0257%2898%2900066-4

A modified form of the Gross-Marvin ladder model is used to simulate gelation processes in which α, the viscoelastic stress relaxation exponent in the Gel Equation, can be varied in the range O

Life cycle assessment of multi-glazed windows (1998)
Thesis
Weir, G. F. Life cycle assessment of multi-glazed windows. (Thesis). Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/2747

In 1987 the World Commission on Environment and Development proposed a reduction in per capita energy consumption of 50%. Increasing demands, and initiatives of this nature, produce a need for more reliable assessment methods, measurement tools and i... Read More about Life cycle assessment of multi-glazed windows.
