This thesis presents pioneering work in the relatively new field of focused ion beam (FIB) sculpting of single crystals to produce bespoke devices and enable the investigation of physics that cannot be studied in bulk samples. It begins with a comprehensive and didactic account …
In the beginning of the twenty-first century, educational and commercial institutions have driven the demand for cheap and efficient data storage. The storage medium known as magnetic recording media has remained the mainstay for most computer systems due to its large storage ca…
Following the breakthrough in the last decade in identifying the key parameters for time and depth imaging in anisotropic media and developing practical methodologies for estimating them from seismic data, this title primarily focuses on the far reaching exploration benefits of …
The ability to accurately and efficiently track material properties in a Lagrangian sense during geodynamical flows, as well as evaluate how they evolve through both space and time, is of vital importance to our understanding of the structure, dynamics and evolution of Earth’s m…
In the recent few decades, a more frequent and drastic change in climate resulting from global warming has raised up increasing concern in our society. Shale, a typical anisotropic sedimentary rock, is playing a critical role in engineering practices that tackle global warming a…
This thesis examines selected issues related to the performance of earthfill embankments constructed on soft clay foundations. The primary objectives of the thesis are: to extend an existing elastic-viscoplastic (EVP) constitutive model to describe the influence of micro-structu…
Trabecular bone is a major load-bearing tissue in the musculoskeletal system and is subjected to various multi-axial loads in vivo. For example, in the vertebral body, the trabecular bone is primarily subjected to uniaxial loads, in the proximal femur, trabecular bone is subject…
This dissertation is concerned with the interplay of long-range order and anisotropy in the tetragonal RNi2Ge2 (R = rare earth) family of compounds. Microscopic magnetic structures were studied using both neutron and x-ray resonant exchange scattering (XRES) techniques. The magn…
We have built the Millimeter-wave Anisotropy eXperiment IMaging Array (MAXIMA) to make partial sky maps of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature anisotropy and to measure the power spectrum over spherical multipoles of 50 [special characters omitted] ℓ [special chara…
