Existing Through-Thickness Reinforcement (TTR) methods for laminated composites using semi or fully rigid reinforcing elements, like tufting, stitching, and z-pinning, present limitations on element geometry, strength, stiffness. Where these application envelopes are exceeded, TTR insertion results in unacceptable levels of damage to both the composite and/or elements. Here, we demonstrate that...

An investigation into the mechanical response of pneumatically-spliced carbon fibre yarns as a potential reinforcing material for polymer composites is presented. High strength connections between are produced by joining short discontinuous tows longer lengths via entanglement. The effect altering number high-pressure air pulses fired commercially available (Airbond 701H) splicing machine, to f...

This paper discusses geoacoustic inversion from tow-ship noise data acquired via a horizontal towed array. Through simulations and experimental results, it is shown that even very quiet ships radiate sufficient noise power to enable self-noise inversion of basic geoacoustic parameters such as effective bottom velocity. The experimental results presented are particularly encouraging in view of t...

Cold Electroweak Baryogenesis is an attempt to explain the cosmological baryon asymmetry using only a minimal extension of the Standard Model. The relevant processes take place out of thermal equilibrium and are non-perturbative, and so must be studied using full, real-time lattice simulations. We present new results on the dependence on CP-violation and the Higgs-toW mass ratio. c Copyright ow...

Surgeon, 42nd A. L. and Civil, Debrooghur. Abdooi,, aged 24 jears, a lascar belonging to one of the trading steamers on the Brahmapootra, was brought to the Charitable Dispensary on the evening of the 9th November, for fracture mid gangrene of the right forearm. The man met with the accident on the 2nd of the month ; he was on the fiat in tow of a steamer coming to Debrooghur; the steamer sudde...
