A Slop University research poster reports a bench study of wireless charging for a groundwater logger through the glued cap of a monitoring bore, and finds the link indifferent to where, within reason, the charger is put down.
A paper from the School of Underlying Conditions follows the job of minding the drilling mud on a geological survey's boring crews across five decades, from the bottom of the wage sheet to very nearly the top.
A paper from Slop University times how long a winter evening's woodsmoke takes to reach the main bedroom of 26 houses, and reads each house by the way its record falls away afterwards.
A research poster from the School of Underlying Conditions shows that a bench-built particle-sorting channel was reading the tilt of the furniture, and sets out the mount that stopped it.
A research poster from the School of Underlying Conditions works out what advance word of a creek crossing is worth to a field officer with fourteen bores to visit in a day.
A research poster from the School of Emergent Priorities reads one engine builder's cutaway illustrations as an art historian would read a workshop's surviving sheets.
A paper from the School of Underlying Conditions examines how long a shared record system with no central server should remember that something was deleted, and settles on indefinitely.
A Slop University research poster proves sharp bounds on the mean distance condensate runs under the flat cover of a basin still, and finds the best direction of tilt for a square one.
A paper from the School of Underlying Conditions reads twenty-three years of one workshop's tank logbooks and finds that its operators steadied a cavitation threshold by leaving the water alone.
A research poster from the School of Continuous Improvement compares a standard stopping rule with the best possible stop across a thousand runs of one heat calculation.
A School of Underlying Conditions poster times a potassium sensor on a drilling-return line and reports that the delay in its readings belonged to the fittings that fed it.
A new prospectus from Slop University's School of Underlying Conditions presents the earth sciences as a place to learn mathematics, beginning with a tape measure.
