Analysis of two-phase effects in sloshing of liquids in marine tanks. One of the winners in the current greenhouse debate is natural gas, and the global market will see the need for transporting large volumes of LNG. Australia's North West Shelf is one of the largest offshore gas reserves in the world. The gas market is one of the biggest contributors for the country's economy.

One of the winners in the current greenhouse debate is natural gas, and the global market will see the need for transporting large volumes of LNG. Australia's North West Shelf is one of the largest offshore gas reserves in the world. The gas market is one of the biggest contributors for the country's economy. Australia leads the world in the use of tankers for transport of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG). However, consistent research in LNG is lacking. This research is a fundamental inquiry into the physics of liquid sloshing and the importance of two-phase effects on sloshing. The research can provide answers that ensure safe operation and transport of LNG from Australia.Read moreRead less
Novel Bioinformatics approaches for genetics and data linkage. The research project will involve creation of novel data and communications formats to fulfil the vital task of integrating the vast heterogeneous biological resources available. We will apply this new infrastructure to a large data linkage project. In parallel, we will undertake methodological research in informatics to design high throughput research methods and tools to analyse and visualise genetic data. These will be applied to ....Novel Bioinformatics approaches for genetics and data linkage. The research project will involve creation of novel data and communications formats to fulfil the vital task of integrating the vast heterogeneous biological resources available. We will apply this new infrastructure to a large data linkage project. In parallel, we will undertake methodological research in informatics to design high throughput research methods and tools to analyse and visualise genetic data. These will be applied to linkage disequilibrium mapping and haplotyping in human, animal and plant diseases. Improving informatics integration and designing novel methods and implementations of algorithms will be beneficial to local and international researchers in a range of fields.Read moreRead less
