Abstract:
This paper is an attempt to investigate the non-stationary process in the global market shares of automotive industry of top 26 automotive producing nations. The time series data of global automotive market shares of top 26 automotive producing nations were collected from data stream Eikon for the period from 2002 to 2014. Augmented Dickey Fuller Unit root test (ADF URT) is used to investigate the non-stationarities or shocks in the outlined series of global automotive market shares. Findings confirmed the presence of shocks or non-stationarity (absence of stationary process) in global market shares of almost all top automotive producing nations except of Australia, India, Malaysia and South Africa for2002 to 2014. Findings further revealed that the non-stationarities got fixed at 2nd difference in all outlined series of global market shares of automotive for the period from 2002 to 2014. It is also revealed that there are the same shocking patterns in the global market shares of all top automotive producing nations with few exception.

Abstract:
Transitioning from internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs) to innovative technologies, including electric vehicles (EVs), can be a crucial pathway to reducing Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions and other negative externalities arising from fossil-fueled cars used for personal transport. Government action to correct insufficient market incentives has been essential in countries working to enhance EV acceptance; however, to date in Australia, there has been little government support to enact EV uptake. This paper identifies barriers and incentives to EV adoption in Australia through a survey of pro-environmental motorists, including an experimental component to test information provision influences on attitude change. Results evidence that wide ranging factors influence vehicle choice including EVs. Purchase barriers are focused on lack of a comprehensive recharge network and high EV purchase price. Factors encouraging fully EV uptake showed affordable price (56%) increased vehicle range (26%) and an adequate recharge network (28%) were mentioned most often; only 13% specifically indicated environmental regard as influential. Information provided about EVs increased the likelihood of positive attitudes towards EV purchase and decreased uncertainty about the technology. Recommendations arising from this research could be considered by laggard countries that, like Australia, have yet to take significant action to encourage transition to EVs.

Abstract:
This paper examines the impact of enterprise bargaining on employment relations practices in the Australia automotive assembly sector in the context of the globalization of the industry. While there has been convergence towards lean production principles among the four auto assemblers, arising from global trends, there has also been divergence resulting from enterprise bargaining, among other variables. Strong similarities are apparent between the companies in areas such as work organization, skill formation and enterprise governance, whereas there are differences in remuneration and staffing practices. However, it remains to be seen whether decentralized bargaining will continue to yield greater differentiation in employment relations among the automotive manufacturers in an increasingly globalized industry.

Abstract:
The decline of public transport in Western Australia is observed in four separate historical studies which narrate the political and administrative history of each major urban transport mode. Perth's suburban railway system is examined as part of the State's widespread rail network, including the extravagantly-equipped short-lived suburban railway in Kalgoorlie. Political interference in early railway operations is studied in detail to determine why Perth's rail-based public transport systems were so poorly developed and then neglected or abandoned for much of the twentieth century. The llnique events in Kalgoorlie at the turn of the century are presented as potent reasons for the early closure of Perth's urban tramway system and the fact that no purpose-built suburban railways were constructed in Perth until 1993. The road funding arrangements of the late nineteenth century are considered next, in order to demonstrate the very early basis for the present lavish non-repayable grants of money for road construction and maintenance by all three layers of government. The development of private and government bus networks is detailed last, with particular attention paid to the failure of private urban bus operators in the 1950s and the subsequent formation of a government owned and operated urban bus monopoly. The capital structure and accounting practices of public transport modes are analysed to provide a critique of popular myths concerning the merits of each. In order to obtain an impression of the changing political view of different transport modes, the attitude of politicians to public transport and the private motor car over the last one hundred and twenty years is captured in summary narrations of some of the more important parliamentary transport debates. Two possible explanations of public transport decline are discussed in conclusion; one relying a neoclassical economic theory of marginal pricing, and the other on an observation on the fate of large capital investments in the modern party-based democratic system of government.

Abstract:
Automotive or End of Life Vehicle (ELV) recycling in Australia is a profit-driven activity undertaken by automotive dismantlers without the oversight of explicit government policy. Among the growing concerns are the environmental impact of the activity and the failure of the industry to implement a voluntary code of practice. An underlying problem clouding these concerns is the literature gaps concerning the operations of the industry, the issues facing the industry, and how these issues could be overcome. This research reports on a series of studies undertaken to address these knowledge gaps by applying System Dynamics (SD) as an investigative approach. Semi-structured stakeholder interviews are conducted to gather quantitative and qualitative data about business operations and material flows. An adapted Qualitative Data Analysis method is used to extract the essential variables and causal links thematically. An aerial survey of recyclers premises and two ELV dismantling trials are also conducted to collect data for variables in the simulation SD model. Furthermore, a Scenarios Planning workshop, including two print surveys, is facilitated to validate the scoping of the problem and model areas and to determine plausible scenarios facing the industry and their effects. This research identifies the sustainability of the industry as an overarching problem, with the financial performance affecting and determined by five areas of concern: i) ELV supply/demand and disposal, ii) workforce, iii) premises, iv) parts sales, and v) industry image. The research also identifies two major growing threats to the industry. The first threat is an increasing unfair competition from backyarders at the ELV supply level. This issue is weakening the industry financial performance and overall industry image while increasing the overall environmental impact of the dismantling activity. The second threat lies with the automobile increasingly becoming a throw-away product, catalysed by the motorists and insurance industry preference for new instead of used parts for repairs. This growing trend threatens the demand for parts reuse and the business case for the industry. The simulation results support a nationally harmonised and enforced licensing policy with requirements for proper handling of ELVs as leverage to help improve the overall industry image and financial performance, despite the added compliance costs. The policy obliterates the unfair competition by encouraging the backyarders to either fold operations or become licensed operators. The overall environmental impact of automotive dismantling decreases significantly. A longer use cycle for the automobile and the promotion parts reuse could also enhance these metrics further. A secondary finding is a forward integration business strategy, to help improve the financial performance and reduce the environmental impact, using a multi-dismantling machine to break apart ELVs into broad material categories.

Abstract:
University of Technology, Sydney. Faculty of Science.
The comparison of two or more samples of gasoline (petrol) to establish a common origin is a difficult problem in the forensic investigation of arsons and suspicious fires. The high- boiling fraction of the gasoline was targeted with a view to apply the techniques described herein to evaporated gasoline samples in the future. A novel micro solid phase extraction technique using activated alumina was developed to isolate the polar compounds and the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from a 200 µL sample of gasoline. This technique was applied to 35 randomly collected samples of unevaporated gasoline, covering three different grades (regular unleaded, premium unleaded and lead replacement), collected in Sydney, Australia. The samples were analysed using full-scan GC-MS; potential target compounds identified were the C0- to C2-naphthalenes. The samples were then re-analysed directly, without prior treatment, using GC-MS in selected ion monitoring (SIM) mode for target compounds that exhibited variation between gasoline samples. Multivariate statistical analysis (principal component and linear discriminant analysis) was applied to the chromatographic data. The first two principal components described approximately 90% of the variation in the data and showed that the majority of the 35 samples could be differentiated using the method developed. A comparison of unevaporated samples collected in Auckland, New Zealand to those collected in Sydney was also made. Most of the samples could be differentiated based on their country of origin. The variation of unevaporated regular unleaded and premium unleaded gasoline over time at three different service stations was studied. Ninety-six samples of gasoline were collected over a 16 week period and analysed for their C0- to C2-naphthalene content using the GC-MS (SIM) method that was developed. In most cases it was found that the C0- to C2-naphthalene profile in gasoline changed from week to week, and from station to station. Samples of 25%, 50%, 75% and 90% evaporated gasoline (w/w) were generated from the 35 randomly collected samples of unevaporated gasoline. The C0- to C2-naphthalene content of all unevaporated and evaporated gasoline samples was determined using the GC- MS (SIM) method. Analysis of the data by principal components followed by linear discriminant analysis showed that the 35 samples formed 18 unique groups, irrespective of the level of evaporation. The application of the method to forensic casework is discussed.

Abstract:
This research aims to investigate the changes in economic relations between Australia and China from the perspective of how the FDI and MNE activities in China have produced opportunities and challenges to the Australian manufacturing industries. Basically, this research confines its aims to following aspects: 1. Introducing basic strategies employed by the Chinese government for economic reforms. Analyzing how these strategies have been implemented and what are the consequences in terms of the scale and quality of FDI in China and the development of the Chinese automotive and food processing industries. Examining how such developments have generated opportunities and challenges to Australian automotive and food processing industries. 2. By collecting and analyzing first hand data and secondary information about the performance of the Australian automotive and food processing companies in China, this research attempts to identify and assess the factors that have contributed to the success or failure of Australian companies in China. Based on the findings, suggestions to the Australian government and industries are made on the adjustments needed to expand the market share of the two Australian industries in China, and on the necessary preparations needed to meet the challenges and opportunities generated from the development of globalization. 3. Theoretically this research aims to deliver new empirical evidences for enriching concepts about how FDI and MNE activities have affected the economic development between two FDI recipient nations of different development stages, namely, Australia and China.

Abstract:
The foundation for a productive, efficient and effective workforce is high quality and relevant training and ideally, educators, policy makers and the industry practitioners should agree on what should be included in training programs. This chapter discusses views of automotive trainees about whether or not they believed their training was directed appropriately towards work within the automotive industry of the future. Data was collected from automotive trainees located in Kenya and Australia. Data was obtained by use of questionnaires and analyzed with both quantitative and qualitative foci. The questions asked regarded the emphasis of training, the content of training, the facilities in training and coping with technological change in the workplace. Data were discussed according to three themes on generic skills, adequacy of training to work requirements and training facilities. In both countries, it was found that there is a need for more realignment of training offering to the future industry requirements. It is recommended that a consultative approach should be used in the training programs design with a view to reducing the gap between industry requirements and training offerings.

Abstract:
This chapter is an extract from a study that examined how institute-based automotive training in the retail, service and repair (RS&R) sector could be made more responsive and effective to the changes in workplace demands and new technology. It dealt with the promotion of vocational relevance in the training of motor mechanics in the contexts of a changing world and emergent working conditions. It was an applied learning study that followed a comparative case study research design aimed at advancing reciprocal lessons between the two regions of Kenya and State of Victoria, Australia. The research was propelled by the fact that technology used in this area is now changing faster than at any other time in modern history and is impacting upon most of the human lifestyles. This chapter deals with a summary of the main issues that were researched. Specifically the chapter deals with relevance of institute-based automotive training, stakeholders’ involvement in programs development, and program transfer from one region to another: and learning for work and at workplace. It highlights the views if trainers, trainees and industry practitioners on equity in program development, relevance to workplace requirements and ownership of the automotive training programs. It was found that Australian trainers felt somehow sidelined in the program design while the Kenyan trainers complained of being left alone by relevant industry in the program development venture. None of these two cases produces optimal results since participation in program design should be equitably distributed among the stakeholders.

Abstract:
Materials engineering applications are becoming more widespread, varied and sophisticated due to advances in science and increasing interdisciplinary cooperation. To be able to impart engineering graduates with the required technical background, educators need to update the course syllabus and the program curriculum continuously. Most importantly, in a world of constant change, educators need to develop the right graduate capabilities in engineering students. This calls for new, innovative teaching approaches to materials education. This chapter demonstrates the authors' teaching approach through the design and development of an Automotive Materials course at postgraduate level in an ‘International Automotive Engineering' program at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia. To elucidate this teaching approach to materials education, the authors discuss in detail the need to impart an up-to-date understanding of new, alternative materials, the development of graduate capabilities, interdisciplinary systems thinking towards materials education, and the environmental sustainability of engineering materials.

Abstract:
There are two main parts to this reflective case history of evidence-based OCD practice. The first involves the use of framing in enhancing meaning and provoking action from the client, an automotive manufacturer in Malaysia. The second part, largely drawn from organizational change experience in Australia, is a reflection on the use of tropes in change project teams and with clients to facilitate communications and invoke new ways of thinking. Both “evidence” and experience play an important role in the two stories. Through reflection, insights and lessons learned are presented that may help organizational change and development practitioners.
