  • Becoming the body, approaching the body, re-enacting the body : Jew in Venice 
    Taub, Myer (Art Historical Work Group of South Africa, 2012)

    Photograph of a free-standing stump bedstead from the William Campbell Museum. It can not be seen whether the frame is thonged or caned. The untapered wooden posts have vertical fluting and ball finials, and the footboard ...
  • Bed 
    Pearse, Geoffrey Eastcott (1885-1968) (2008-10-31)
    Two photographs depicting a bed and its footboard, origin and date unknown. The headboard has tall, slender turned posts, and the footboard is richly carved. All the posts are topped by finials.
  • Bedside cupboard

    Photograph depicting a late 18th century low cupboard of the bedroom type, with cabriole legs, pad feet and, unusually, without a door. It is the property of Mr. M. G. Mackeurtan, as shown in Plate 48 on p. 117 of "Cape ...
  • The behaviour of a reinforced soil mattress spanning a cavity modelled in a geotechnical centrifuge 
    Van Dyk, C.; Jacobsz, Schalk Willem (Springer, 2016-10)
    Sinkholes can occur on land underlain by dolomite and cause substantial damage to buildings and even loss of life. More than four million people work or reside on dolomite land in South Africa and it is therefore important to ...
  • Behaviour of cementitious subbase layers in bitumen base road structures 
    De Beer, Morris (University of Pretoria, 2009-08-04)
    The process of designing cementitious layers (weakly and strongly cemented) against fatigue distress in road structures is well accepted. Research and field investigations with the aid of the Heavy Vehicle Simulator (HVS) ...
  • Behaviour of coal mineral matter in sintering and slagging of ash during the gasification process 
    Matjie, Ratale Henry; French, David; Ward, Colin R.; Pistorius, Petrus Christiaan; Li, Zhongsheng (Elsevier, 2011-03)
    The mineral matter in typical feed coals used in South African gasification processes and the ash derived from gasifying such coals have been investigated using a variety of mineralogical, chemical and electron microscope ...
  • Behaviour of machine foundations subjected to vertical dynamic loading 
    Mbawala, Silipius Joseph (University of Pretoria, 2015)
    The vertical dynamic behaviour of machine foundations subjected to vertical dynamic loading was investigated for surface and embedded foundations. The responses of these machine foundations were determined using analytical ...
  • The behaviour of nitrogen during the autogenous ARC welding of stainless steel 
    Du Toit, Madeleine (University of Pretoria, 2004-02-26)
    Nitrogen-alloyed austenitic stainless steels are becoming increasingly popular, mainly due to their excellent combination of strength and toughness. Nitrogen desorption to the atmosphere during the autogenous welding of ...
  • Behaviour of ultra-thin continuously reinforced concrete pavements under moving axle loads 
    Kearsley, Elsabe P.; Smit, Martha S. (Taylor and Francis, 2023)
    Concrete pavements are typically considered to be rigid pavements and are designed using principles based on the beam-on-elastic support equations as derived by Westergaard in 1926. Ultra-Thin Continuously Reinforced ...
  • Behavioural intrusion detection in water distribution systems using neural networks 
    Ramotsoela, Tsotsope Daniel; Hancke, Gerhard P.; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan Mohammed (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2020)
    There has been an increasing number of attacks against critical water system infrastructure in recent years. This is largely due to the fact that these systems are heavily dependent on computer networks meaning that an ...
  • Behavioural sensitivity towards emission concepts 
    Grabe, Ruan Johannes; Joubert, Johan W. (Elsevier, 2021)
    Agent-based simulation lends itself to study emergent behaviour when agents respond autonomously, based on their unique and individual attributes, to external interventions. In transport, the vehicle-specific attribute ...
  • Behind the curtains : breaking the fourth wall with a public interface into the [laboratory] of the performing arts 
    Oosthuizen, Tian (University of Pretoria, 2015)

  • Being and becoming in the Late Anthropocene 
    Green, David; Mare, Estelle Alma (Art Historical Work Group of South Africa, 2014)
    Colonisation as an ongoing process continues to obfuscate the real identity of a culture “becoming” in Aotearoa/New Zealand. In writing about aspects of my arts practice I touch upon certain Hericlitean, Platonic, and ...

  • Beknopte oorsig van Sjinese keramiek 
    Duffey, Alexander Edward (Art Historical Work Group of South Africa, 1989)
