Induction motor fault recognition. (1985)
Thesis
LEONARD, R.A. 1985. Induction motor fault recognition. Robert Gordon's Institute of Technology, MPhil thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-1993280

The work presented in this thesis is based on theoretical and experimental investigations into the changes in measurable squirrel cage induction machine parameters such as vibration, line current and leakage flux which alter during machine faults. In... Read More about Induction motor fault recognition..

An investigation of some factors affecting transdermal permeation. (1985)
Thesis
AL-SAIDAN, S.M.H. 1985. An investigation of some factors affecting transdermal permeation. Robert Gordon's Institute of Technology, PhD thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-1993284

Factors affecting transdermal permeation were investigated using Differential Thermal Anlaysis (DTA) and in vitro penetration studies of neonatal rat stratum corneum (s.c.), with radiolabelled propanol and hexanol as penetrants. Thermogravimetric Ana... Read More about An investigation of some factors affecting transdermal permeation..

Low birthweight discrimination using maternal variables. (1985)
Thesis
LEE, M. 1985. Low birthweight discrimination using maternal variables. Robert Gordon's Institute of Technology, MPhil thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-1993250

Many studies have reported factors, such as maternal weight, weight gain during pregnancy, smoking habit, which are associated with birthweight. Hytten and Paintin (1963), Duffus et al (1971), Pirani, Campbell and MacGillivray (1973) have shown a rel... Read More about Low birthweight discrimination using maternal variables..

Mathematical manipulation of citations and citation analysis are criticized. The limitations... Read More about Critical assessment of bibliometrical features in the subject field of pharmacy..

An analysis of the role of the oil sector in the Iraqi economy, 1953-75, and an appraisal of the petrochemical industry as a strategy for achieving future self-sustained development. (1985)
Thesis
AUDA, R.S. 1985. An analysis of the role of the oil sector in the Iraqi economy, 1953-75, and an appraisal of the petrochemical industry as a strategy for achieving future self-sustained development. Robert Gordon's Institute of Technology, PhD thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-1993238

This thesis is an attempt to establish an alternative strategy that could enhance the economic development of Iraq. It does so with a feasibility study of a petrochemical complex geared towards fertilizer production. The analysis outlined in this the...
