This thesis reports research to investigate the mechanical, thermal and acoustic properties of biodegradable foams in block forms based on wheat starch and developed at Brunel University's School of Engineering & Design, in order to exploit the potential environmental benefits o…

The acoustic characteristics of fricatives were investigated with the aim of finding invariant cues that classify fricatives into their place of articulation. However, such invariant cues are hard to recognize because of the long-noticed problem of variability in the acoustic si…
