Selective cation-exchange adsorption of the two major whey proteins
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology, 2010-03-16)
Whey is a by-product of cheese manufacture, containing a mixture of proteins of commercial value, each having unique attributes for nutritional, biological and food ingredient applications. A tremendous amount of whey, ...
Rainfall trends in India and their impact on soil erosion and land management
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Engineering, 2010-02-09)
Under the threat of global warming it is vital to determine the impact that future changes in climate may have on the environment and to what extent any adverse effects can be mitigated. In this research an assessment was ...
Scalar dissipation rate based flamelet modelling of turbulent premixed flames
(University of CambridgeDepartment of EngineeringTrinity Hall, 2010-03-16)
Lean premixed combustion has potential for reducing emissions from combustion devices without compromising fuel efficiency, but it is prone to instabilities which presents design difficulties. From emissions point of view ...
Feedback control of oscillations in combustion and cavity flows
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Engineering, 2010-02-09)
This thesis considers the control of combustion oscillations, motivated by the susceptibility of lean premixed combustion to such oscillations, and the long and expensive development and commissioning times that this is ...
Engineering Fundamentals of Energy Efficiency
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Engineering, 2010-03-16)
Using energy more efficiently is essential if carbon emissions are to be reduced. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), energy efficiency improvements represent the largest and least costly savings in carbon ...
Tomographic PIV measurement of coherent dissipation scale structures
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Engineering, 2010-05-04)
Further understanding the small scale coherent structures which occur in high Reynolds number turbulence would be of enormous benefit. Therefore, the aim of the current project was to make well resolved three-dimensional ...
From Trade-to-Trade in US Treasuries
(CFAP, Cambridge Judge Business School, University of Cambridge, 2010-05)
The aim of this paper is to model the trading intensity of the US Treasury bond market which has a unique expandable limit order book which distinguishes its structure from other asset markets. An analysis of tick data ...
Ground movements due to excavation in clay: physical and analytical models
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Engineering, 2010-11-16)
In view of the recent catastrophes associated with deep excavations, there is an urgent need to provide vital guidelines on the design of the construction process. To develop a simple tool for predicting ground deformation ...
Morale: definitions, dimensions and measurement
(University of CambridgeJudge Business School, 2010-04-13)
Morale is a commonly used term both in business and society but the concept of morale is relatively poorly defined and understood. In a recent paper Liefooghe et al. (2004) expressed surprise that ‘…when reviewing the ...
An empirical analysis of subprime consumer credit demand
(2010)
We test the interest rate sensitivity of subprime credit card borrowers using a unique panel data set from a UK credit card company. What is novel about our contribution is that we were given details of a randomized interest ...
