Surface Reconstruction by Triangular Mesh of Models with Uneven Density and with Hole
(University of Waikato, 2015)With the fast development of computer software, 3D computer aided design (CAD) and computer aided manufacturing (CAM) are being improved rapidly and have been commonly used in industry, especially in medical area and ... -
Surface Roughening of Platinum Wire: An Electrochemical and Mechanical Approach
(University of Waikato, 2017)In order to make implanted electrodes MRI safe several methods have been explored. One of those methods involves increasing AC resistance by roughening the surface of the implanted platinum wires. This thesis explores an ... -
Surface tension: Place/poverty/policy: From "poverty" to "social exclusion": Implications of discursive shifts in European Union poverty policy, 1975-1999
(The University of Waikato, 1999)This dissertation addresses four substantive issues or arguments that are linked in an interdisciplinary discussion informed by contemporary feminist and cultural geographies, feminist political philosophy, policy studies ... -
Surficial sediments of Raglan Harbour
(University of Waikato, 1973)Raglan Harbour is a drowned river valley system lying in a structurally depressed fault block. Much of the upper reaches of the harbour consist of tidal flats formed by sediment veneered shore platforms, and dissected by ... -
Surfing life: surface, substructure and the commodification of the sublime
(Routledge, 2012)Mark Stranger’s first words of his book Surfing Life dedicate the work to his father saying ‘He started this whole thing with the sea for me’. Flicking through the book to get the flavour of ‘this thing with the sea’, I ... -
Surge capability testing of supercapacitor families using a lightning surge simulator
(IEEE, 2011)Supercapacitors (SCs) are capable of storing energy in the range of fractional joules to several thousands of joules despite their lower dc voltage ratings. Farad-order capacitances combined with milliohm-order equivalent ... -
Surge endurance capability testing of supercapacitor families
(IEEE, 2010)Supercapacitors are usually low voltage, high capacity devices with milliohm order equivalent series resistances. They usually have time constants from fractional seconds to seconds. Due to these long time constants, ... -
A Surgical implant conductor with increased radio frequency alternating current resistance
(2016)In one aspect the invention provides a surgical implant conductor formed from a length of conductive material which exhibits increased radio frequency alternating current resistance. This conductive material defines an ... -
Surgical tool datasets for machine learning research: A survey
(Springer, 2022)This paper is a comprehensive survey of datasets for surgical tool detection and related surgical data science and machine learning techniques and algorithms. The survey offers a high level perspective of current research ... -
Surgical treatment of early stage breast cancer in the Auckland and Waikato regions of New Zealand
(WILEY, 2018)Background The aim of this study was to understand the factors influencing the use of surgical options by New Zealand women with newly diagnosed breast cancer. Methods Using data from the Auckland and Waikato breast ... -
Surplus Public Works Land: The Crown's Special Duty to Maori

Surrogacy and the law: three perspectives
(LexisNexis NZ Ltd, 2020)In this article we argue that, from the perspective of the surrogacy triad, the legal process in New Zealand does not work well. We conducted semi-structured interviews with surrogates and intended parents about their ... -
Surrogate modeling a computational fluid dynamics-based wind turbine wake simulation using machine learning
(IEEE, 2017)The Wind Farm Layout Optimization problem involves finding the optimal positions for wind turbines on a wind farm site. Current Metahueristic based methods make use of a combination of turbine specifications and parameters, ... -

Surrogate-Assisted Evolutionary Algorithms for Wind Farm Layout Optimisation Problem
(University of Waikato, 2016)Due to the increasing need for computationally expensive optimisation in many real-world applications, surrogate-assisted evolutionary algorithms have attracted growing attention. In the literature, surrogate-assisted ... -
A survey of China’s renewable energy economy
(Elsevier, 2009)This paper surveys China's renewable energy economy, focusing particularly on renewable energy laws and programs, the lessons that can be learnt from the current literature, and the implications of that literature. Gaps ... -
A Survey of Dihydroxyacetone in Nectar of Leptospermum Scoparium from Several Regions of New Zealand
(University of Waikato, 2012)Mānuka honey has been identified as having non-peroxide antimicrobial activity (NPA). This medical benefit has led to mānuka honey becoming a major export for New Zealand. Hives are currently located in preserved or ... -
A survey of Japanese gamers' ratings of experience elements for different game genres
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2011)Although there has been a surge in computer games research in recent years, studies of gamers' experience of different game genres are very few. Furthermore, even these few studies of gamers' experience are almost all based ... -
A survey of neural network-based cancer prediction models from microarray data
(Elsevier, 2019)Neural networks are powerful tools used widely for building cancer prediction models from microarray data. We review the most recently proposed models to highlight the roles of neural networks in predicting cancer from ... -
