This research focuses on two key research questions: how to measure spatial accessibility to green space in urban areas at fine resolution; and what is the status of spatial inequity in accessibility to green space in the MMA. Guided by the two research questions and based on a systematic review of literature on accessibility in general accessibility to green space in particular, a methodology has been developed for producing results needed to answer the research questions.

The purpose of this project is to enable the prediction of flow behaviour of concentrated slurries in the pipe loop under various laminar flow conditions using the fluid analogue to slurry and to find the suitable rheological model from the literature for the fluid analogue and tailings from the Sunrise dam. The major objective of the project is to develop a fluid analogue which will have similar rheological behaviour to that of the tailings from Sunrise dam so that it can be used as a test material to predict the flow behaviour of tailings in a pipe.
