Developing sustainable seaweed aquaculture of the native kelp Ecklonia radiata in New Zealand
(The University of Waikato, 2023)The native kelp Ecklonia radiata is a target species for seaweed aquaculture in New Zealand because of its broad distribution and desirable biomass profile (e.g., alginate, fucoidan, and phlorotannins). However, commercial ... -
Electrical Conductivity of Brain Cortex Slices in Seizing and Non-seizing States
(University of Waikato, 2013)The electrical conductivity of thin living slices of mouse cerebral cortex is measured. Two only out of fifteen different attempting ways were effective. I have successfully measured the electrical conductivity of mouse ... -
Fractional modelling of rechargeable batteries
(The University of Waikato, 2021)To develop a compact battery model, many authors begin by measuring the impedance of a battery over a frequency range of interest. Most of the models in the literature are either Thevenin-style or Randles’ model consisting ... -
Hydrodynamic impacts of tectonics in prehistoric Ohiwa Harbour, North Island, New Zealand
(University of Waikato, 2012)Ohiwa Harbour is an estuarine lagoon located in the eastern Bay of Plenty, North Island, New Zealand. Ohiwa Harbour is bounded by two sand spits, Ohope and Ohiwa Spits. This study assessed the likelihood of a resistant ... -
Modelling heat transfer during chilling and freezing of packaged foods in industrial refrigeration facilities
(The University of Waikato, 2020)Industrial refrigeration equipment companies are continuously looking for ways to optimise the design of chilling and freezing tunnels in order to minimise food quality loss and increase the energy efficiency of the ... -
Modelling the efficacy of in-lake and catchment remediation actions for restoration of a small, eutrophic lake
(University of Waikato, 2015)Land conversion from native vegetation to agriculture has been widespread in New Zealand over the past century. The resulting increases in nutrient runoff have led to eutrophication of many lakes and have resulted in harmful ... -
Multi-inlet migration modeling for navigation channel management in Tabusintac Bay, Eastern Canada
(2016)In New Brunswick, Atlantic Canada, Tabusintac Bay’s multiple tidal inlets meander through narrow barrier islands and are prone to large storm-induced shifts, making navigation hazardous. A multi-evidence assessment comprised ... -
Numerical modelling of plasticity induced by transcranial magnetic stimulation
(Springer, 2013)We use neural field theory and spike-timing dependent plasticity to make a simple but biophysically reasonable model of long-term plasticity changes in the cortex due to transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). We show how ... -
A quick, reliable solution for modelling cheese chilling process
(International Institute of Refrigeration, 2018)Optimisation of the refrigerating system for cheese processing requires an accurate prediction of chilling time, product temperature distributions and heat flow. Many existing CFD models can provide the best predictions ... -
Sedimentation And Hydrodynamics of Whitianga Estuary
(The University of Waikato, 2008)Whitianga Estuary is a bayhead barrier type estuary located on the east of the Coromandel Peninsula, North Island, New Zealand. The catchment has undergone many land-use changes since pre-European settlement. In some areas ...
