(Thesis, Doctor of Philosophy, 2011)In this thesis, we study an energetic electron atmospheric precipitation event that occurred on 17–19 January 2005, by quantifying the energy distribution, geographic extent and net flux of the precipitating electrons. The ...

-
(Thesis, Master of Science, 2012)Recent experiments at the University of Arizona have demonstrated superb control and imaging of flattened superfluids revealing a rich landscape of vortex dynamics. Vortex dipoles have been created and their dynamics ... -
(Thesis, Doctor of Philosophy, 1986)

(Thesis, Master of Science, 2013)We apply the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov-Popov (HFBP) method to two problems. The first is the phenomenon of Anderson localisation of a BEC in a two-dimensional bichromatic lattice. The second is the case of a harmonically ... -
(Thesis, Master of Science, 2012)In this thesis we develop a direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method for simulating highly nonequilibrium dynamics of nondegenerate ultra cold gases. We show that our method can simulate the high-energy collision of two ... -
(Thesis, Doctor of Philosophy, 2012)The major focus of this thesis is the dynamic effects of Feshbach resonances on Bragg scattering from Bose–Einstein condensates. This work is motivated by the JILA experiment of Papp et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 101 (2008)], ... -
(Thesis, Master of Science, 2004)
-
(Thesis, Doctor of Science, 1997)The candidate has worked for 27 years in the area of wind energy research. During that time he has been the coordinator of the University of Otago Wind Energy Group. This Thesis collates those items of the Group's published ...
-
(Thesis, Master of Science, 2011)A new approach to position determination using the Global Positioning System (GPS) has been developed where post processing of ultra-short sequences of captured GPS satellite signal data can produce an estimate of receiver ...

(Thesis, Master of Science, 2012)This thesis describes a demonstration field programmable gate array (FPGA) based radio intended for high frequency applications. This prototype uses a Xilinx Spartan-3 FPGA to provide many signal processing functions ... -
(Thesis, Doctor of Philosophy, 2011)In this thesis we develop an orthogonalised Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) formalism that has a zero-energy excitation (in contrast with standard HFB). We demonstrate that this formalism satisfies the number and linear/angular ... -
(Thesis, Master of Science, 2009)The majority (70%) of houses in New Zealand were originally built before energy efficiency regulation came into force. Since the first standard was introduced in 1977, methods for controlling heat loss in new builds have ... -
(Thesis, Doctor of Science, 2001)
-
(Thesis, Master of Applied Science, 2011)Data centers electricity consumption is the fastest growing electricity consuming sector in the United States (US), with data centers electricity consumption projected to quadruple between 2010 and 2030 from an annual ...
-
(Thesis, Doctor of Philosophy, 2011)The use of microalgae biomass for the production of biodiesel has been increasingly investigated mainly because arable land is not required for cultivating this biofuel feedstock. However the large scale production of ...
-
(Thesis, Doctor of Philosophy, 2012)In this thesis we study: the dynamics leading to a near-deterministic preparation of single atoms in a microscopic optical dipole trap; the non destructive imaging and counting of trapped atoms; and a system for sorting ...
-
(Thesis, Master of Science, 2012)The discovery that functions as simple as a quadratic curve could produce a chaotic and ergodic sequence of iterates as an iterative map has inspired many studies and surveys, on the behaviour of iterative functions and ... -
