On the autonomous metric on the group of area-preserving diffeomorphisms of the 2–disc [PDF]
Let $D^2$ be the open unit disc in the Euclidean plane and let $G:= Diff(D2; area)$ be the group of smooth compactly supported area-preserving diffeomorphisms of $D^2$. We investigate the properties of G endowed with the autonomous metric. In particular, we construct a bi-Lipschitz homomorphism $Z^k \rightarrow G$ of a finitely generated free abelian ...

Morphological features and important parameters of large optic discs for diagnosing glaucoma. [PDF]
To compare the optic disc parameters of glaucomatous eyes to those of non-glaucomatous eyes with large discs.We studied 225 consecutive eyes with large optic discs (>2.82 mm2): 91 eyes with glaucoma and 134 eyes without glaucoma.

A numerical and experimental study on the factors that influence heat partitioning in disc brakes [PDF]
YesTo investigate the heat partition on a vehicle disc brake, a small scale test rig with one contact interface was used. This allowed the disc/pad contact temperatures to be measured with fast-response foil thermocouples and a rubbing thermocouple ...

An Investigation into the Influence of the Contact Pressure Distribution at the Friction Pair Interface on Disc Brake Squeal [PDF]
The main purpose of this thesis is to investigate the dynamic centre of pressure during a noisy brake application. A novel technique is employed to measure the centre of pressure and contact pressure distribution between the disc/pad interfaces during ...
