A pioneer in the field of soil mechanics, Schofield developed drum centrifuges in Cambridge to reduce the cost of centrifuge tests, to improve the accuracy, and reduce the labour and the ... time needed for any one test series.

For economic reasons, any system used for copying and restoring old films must be fast as well as effective.

The use of a centrifuge to test scaled- down models has been a vital factor in the development of soil mechanics and it has played a key role in its application

The geometry modelled is a generic design developed in-house which conforms to present regulations, and complements a series of experimental tests.

The aircraft used were mostly Spitfires, flown by Wing Commander Wilson, the chief test pilot at Farnborough, who was happy to hold the aircraft in a steep (but never vertical) dive

Within the Department, the methods have been very successfully applied in the flight control studies for the Harrier jump jet with, most unusually for a University group, two sets of test

The first of Whittle's test jet engines took to the skies on 15 May 1941, powering an aircraft that had been specifically designed for the purpose: the Gloster E28/39. ... This aircraft was conceived and built in only 15 months. Take-off for the test

While at Orfordness, Jones and others learned to fly, encouraged by Hopkinson, so that they could test the apparatus and armaments they were trying to perfect in actual service.

The full implications of her work were not realised until the 1950s but after that, the ‘Tipper test’ became the standard method for determining this form of brittleness in steel.

7 Feb 2001: It maintained its dominant position until 1914, and typically men such as Willis and Parsons in engineering, Bertrand Russell in philosophy, Keynes in economics and Telfer in patristics had started their

1997a). Figure 1 shows in detail the test section and heated test plate. ... Figure 1. Encapsulated cholesteric liquid crystals were used to visualise the process of wake-induced transition on the test surface.

By setting up small scale tests using the centrifuge, for instance, the rate of spread of a plume of pollution from a landfill site which would occur over a period of
