Thesis for the degree of Master of Science

The aim of this study is to explore and develop methods of controlling colour while overcoming many of the inherent problems in the processing. Because to the enormous variety of paper available, testing for printing was narrowed to primarily 100% cotton papers. The negative was critical in realising the full potential of the salt prints tonal range. The film tested was limited by availability in the Australian market. The research into various films to create digital output negatives proved to be complex and time consuming.

The main aim of this investigation was to develop a low-cost solution to remove trace metals from the aqueous phase using biochar. This study investigated (i) the effect of giant reed-based biochar produced at varying temperatures in the treatment of aqueous solutions polluted with lead; and (ii) how the production of biochar at different temperatures affected its adsorption capacity for lead from the aqueous phase.

This research aims to address these research gaps. Through the literature review, the most popular building PV applications in China are identified. Hence, five building PV scenarios are developed based on real-word cases, including BAPV, roof BIPV and window BIPV. Given the diverse geographic conditions and policy conditions in China, 12 typical cities are selected for the research. A MATLAB program is established to calculate energy generation and evaluate the economic performance of the building PV applications in the 12 cities.

In the work "Master's thesis of Science: User delay tolerance - aware edge node placement optimization for cost minimization", we review the related works and identify the research gaps in Chapter 2. Then, we formulate our problem in Chapter 3 and prove the NP-hardness of the problem in Chapter 4. Base on our problem formulation, we provide a suit of solutions in Chapter 5. After that, we do an comprehensive evaluation on our proposed methods in Chapter 6. Finally, we summarise our work in Chapter 7.

This research is based on the hypothesis that applying building industry’s best practice initiatives can enable sustainability within the built environment and the notion that effective and sustainable built outcomes are essential aspects in ensuring the long-term viability of the building industry and the built environment. This research explores this hypothesis and notion through two broad aims.

Through this body of work it was found that both lysozyme and sfGFP remained in their native state in each of the selected PILs at 1 mol% IL: water concentrations. Both selected proteins were stable to highest proportions of PILs which contained the propylammonium cation and the acetate anion. This was contrary to some previously reported studies where the elongation of the alkyl chain length provided a greater stabilising effect than the shorter chained ILs.

These formal definitions often seem far stronger than necessary for practical security — many cryptosystems used in practice do not satisfy the formal definitions. This includes typical ElGamal implementations. The attacks discussed in this paper suggest that it is worth striving to meet formal definitions of security in actual implementations.

This Master of Science degree thesis aims at investigating, studying and developing the new physical layer for the new handled generation of terrestrial TV standard DVB-NGH. This new physical layer is based on the DVB-T2 physical layer specification, but it introduces several advanced mechanisms to allow the transmission of high definition TV services in mobile environments. The main objective of this thesis work is focused on illustrating the benefits of the new physical layer when compared to T2 physical layer.
