The Effect of Intensity Prescription on Individual Responses to Exercise
(2024-11-06)Following exercise training, evidence demonstrates improvements in exercise capacity, symptoms of disease, quality of life, as well as reductions in hospitalisation, morbidity, and mortality. Notably, cardiorespiratory ... -
Deconstructability Prediction using Artificial Intelligence Models
(2024-11-19)This thesis introduces artificial intelligence (AI) predictive modelling techniques for evaluating building deconstructability. It is the first research to create a deconstructability prediction model that includes ... -
Transportation CO2 Emissions in Automotive Life Cycle Assessments of Electric Vehicles - a Systems Theory Evaluation
(2024-12-09)Electric vehicles are widely viewed as having the potential to reduce global carbon emissions because they effectively produce no carbon emissions to operate when powered by a low carbon electric energy source for charging ... -
Black Trainees’ Experiences of Reflective Practice Spaces during DClinPsy Training in the UK
(2024-11-20)Reflective Practice (RP) is widely used within Clinical Psychology (CP) to support personal and professional development. There is evidence to understand how trainee CPs experience reflective practice groups (RPGs) in ... -
An Investigation into the Relationship between Resilience and Thriving at Work
(2025-01-10)Interest in resilience at work has increased following COVID-19 and its aftermath, to understand how people can cope with and recover from adversity. Thriving at work, defined as the experience of both growth and vitality ... -
Human and Activity Detection in Ambient Assisted Living Scenarios
(2024-06-06)Human activity recognition (HAR) is crucial in assistive technology and human-robot interaction (HRI) as it enables robots and assistive devices to understand and respond to the individual’s movements and actions, ... -
University Students’ Lived Experiences of Developing Active Empathic Listening Skills in Online Synchronous Learning
(2024-12-03)In Higher Education, good relationships between peers are essential for students to learn from each other, develop critical thinking skills, participate actively and make friends. Good relationships may be developed in ... -
Enhancing Energy Efficiency in Residential Buildings at the Design Stage Through Statistical and Machine Learning Models
(2025-01-08)The high proportion of energy consumed in buildings has led to significant environmental problems that negatively impact human existence. It is noted that the construction of energyefficient buildings can help reduce the ... -
Queer Men’s Pathways to Parenthood: Exploring Experiences and Decision-Making of Gay and Bi Men Navigating Surrogacy in the UK
(2024-12-17)Background: There has been some research into queer men’s procreative choices and decision making specifically focusing on adoption and surrogacy from an international context. The research highlights that decisions are ... -
Environmentally Sustainable Construction by Reducing Embodied Carbon Emissions in the Construction of Large-Scale Projects: a Study on High-Rise Buildings
(2024-09-11)This research aims to comprehensively evaluate and quantify the impact of construction processes and practices in large-scale projects, focusing mainly on high-rise buildings. Employing Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) ... -
Novel Nano-Enhanced Phase Change Materials for Thermal Energy Storage Applications
(2024-10-24)The increasing demand for efficient and sustainable thermal energy storage (TES) systems has driven extensive research into phase change materials (PCMs). Despite their high energy storage capacity, the low thermal ... -

Developments in the Epidemiology of Drug-Related Mortality in the United Kingdom over the last 30 Years: Continuity, Change, Consistency, and Challenge
(2024-10-03)This thesis has its roots in and has organically grown out of the author’s previous professional civil service roles and academic and related activities associated with drug indicators since 1987. However, the focus of the ... -
Positive Geometries for Scattering Amplitudes in N = 4 SYM and ABJM
(2024-09-12)This thesis investigates geometric descriptions of scattering amplitudes, with a specific focus on scattering amplitudes in N = 4 SYM and ABJM theory. The recent development of the field of positive geometries provides ... -
A kiloparsec-scale ordered magnetic field in a galaxy at z = 5.6
(2024-12-31)Magnetic fields are widely observed in various astronomical contexts, yet much remains unknown about their significance across different systems and cosmic epochs. Our current knowledge of the evolution of magnetic fields ... -
Lorentzian bordisms in algebraic quantum field theory
(2025-02-03)It is shown that every algebraic quantum field theory has an underlying functorial field theory which is defined on a suitable globally hyperbolic Lorentzian bordism pseudo-category. This means that globally hyperbolic ... -
Pre-registration student research placements within knowbest: a service evaluation
(2025-03-30)Pre-registration student placements have traditionally been based in clinical settings. Recently, practice-based learning has evolved to include additional settings, including research, leadership and management. The ... -
Un oubli généreux du passé’: art, politics and oblivion and the Salon of 1814
(2024-11-01)The collapse of Napoleon’s Empire and the restoration of Louis XVIII left a legacy so embittered that any hope of political reconciliation was all but impossible. To this end the new constitution required that the atrocities ...
