  • On axiomatic systems in mathematics and theories in physics 

    Gandy, Robin Oliver (University of Cambridge, 1953-07-25)

  • On generalized dispersion relations and meson-nucleon scattering 

    Gilbert, Walter (University of CambridgeFaculty of MathematicsTrinity College, 1957-11-19)

  • Three-dimensional manifolds 

    Epstein, David Alper (University of CambridgeFaculty of MathematicsTrinity College, 1960-08-03)
    In the post-war years, the theory of 3-dimensional manifolds has developed tremendously. On the one hand, Bing and Moise have proved that 3-manifolds can be triangulated, and that the Hauptvermutung (that any two triangulations ...

  • The dynamic cutting of metals 

    Smith, J D (University of CambridgeEngineering Laboratory, 1962)
    Prediction of regenerative machine tool chatter requires a knowledge of the cutting forces existing under vibration conditions. Previous direct experimental work has been very limited in its range and has given results ...

  • Analytic properties of transition amplitudes 

    Landshoff, Peter Vincent (University of CambridgePalmer Physical Laboratory, Princeton University, 1962-12-07)

  • Examples of plotter output, screenshots, and photographs of usage from Ivan Sutherland's Sketchpad program on the TX2 computer. 

    Sutherland, Ivan (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1963)

  • Properties of expanding universes 

    Hawking, Stephen (University of CambridgeFaculty of Mathematics. Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, 1966-03-15)
    Some implications and consequences of the expansion of the universe are examined. In Chapter 1 it is shown that this expansion creates grave difficulties for the Hoyle-Narlikar theory of gravitation. Chapter 2 deals with ...

  • Complex space-time 

    Oakes, Mike (University of CambridgeDepartment of Applied Mathematics & Theoretical Physics, 1969-05-06)

  • The analysis and simulation of multi-access computer systems 

    Hunter, Joseph Maclean Hadley (University of CambridgeDepartment of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, 1970-05-07)

  • The classification of maps between the classifying spaces of Lie groups 

    Mahmud, Zafer (University of CambridgeGonville and Caius CollegeDepartment of Pure Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics, 1974-08-01)

  • Fundamental and applied aspects of contact electrification 

    Elsdon, Ronald (University of CambridgeDepartment of Chemical Engineering, 1976-02)
    Apparatus has been developed, which permits the measurement of electrification produced by rolling or sliding contact between a spherical specimen, and a plane dielectric sample. Measurements of the charge transferred to ...

  • NF 

    Forster, Thomas Edward (University of CambridgeDepartment of Pure Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics, 1977-07-27)
    A study Of Quine's Set Theory

  • Vortex flow around the bases of obstacles 

    Baker, Christopher James (University of CambridgeSt. Catharine's CollegeDepartment of Engineering, 1979-02-06)
    This thesis presents the results of experimental and theoretical investigations of the horseshoe vortex systems caused by boundary layer separation upstream of obstacles mounted on a wall. Flow visualization enabled these ...

  • The elastic and plastic behaviour of cellular materials 

    Gibson, Lorna Jane (University of CambridgeChurchill CollegeDepartment of Engineering, 1981-11-10)
    Cellular materials are widespread. Some, like wood and bone, occur in nature, while others, like polymeric foams, are manmade. Because of their cellular structure, they have unusual mechanical properties: they can be stiff, ...

  • The calculation of instanton determinants 

    Moody, Glyn Patrick (University of CambridgeDepartment of Applied Mathematics & Theoretical Physics, 1981-11-10)

  • Shear strength of reinforced concrete wall-beam structures: upper- bound analysis and experiments 

    Bin Mohamed, Zainai (University of CambridgeDowning CollegeDepartment of Engineering, 1987-10-27)
    This study presents rigid-plastic methods of analysis of shear failure in reinforced concrete (R. C.) wall-beam type structures when subjected to in-plane loading. The upper-bound approach is emphasised. Present shear ...

  • Scale effects in tests on footings 

    Lau, Chi Keung (University of CambridgeChrist's College, 1988-02-21)
    This dissertation presents an investigation of the effects of stress, and of absolute and relative particle size, in tests on vertically loaded footings. Two granular materials, namely, a silica rock flour and a Chatelet ...

  • Radial basis function methods for multivariable approximation 

    Jackson, Ian Robert Hart (University of CambridgeDepartment of Applied Mathematics & Theoretical Physics, 1988-11-15)

  • Friction and lubrication in metal rolling 

    Sutcliffe, Michael Patrick Forbes (University of CambridgeJesus CollegeDepartment of Engineering, 1989-11-14)
    This dissertation is concerned with the physical processes which determine friction and lubrication in metal rolling in the mixed lubrication regime, with particular attention paid to the conditions encountered when rolling ...
