Abstract:
The increasing evidence of associations between sedentary behaviour and low levels of physical activity in adults and both immediate and long term health implications is of public health concern. There is a need to further our understanding of adult's health behaviours, to facilitate the development of behaviour change strategies promoting healthy behaviours. This thesis provides four independent but interlinked studies focusing on adult s sedentary behaviour and physical activity in the context of measurement and behaviour change.

Abstract:
Optimised design of textile composite structures based on computer simulation techniques requires an understanding of the deformation behaviour during forming of 3-dimensional double-curvature components. Purely predictive material models are highly desirable to facilitate an optimised design scheme and to significantly reduce time and cost at the design stage, such as experimental characterisation. In-plane shear and out-of-plane bending are usually thought to be the key forming mechanisms. Therefore, this thesis is concerned with studies of the shear and bending behaviour by experimental cha

With the introduction of the technological age, increasing mechanisation has led to labour saving devices which have all-but engineered physical activity out of our lives and sedentary behaviour has now become the default behaviour during waking hours.

One method that has shown promise in interventions to increase physical activity and healthy eating in adults is the behaviour change technique of s

It was found, for the first time, that stress has a small but significant effect on the fire reaction properties. Increasing tensile stress increased heat release rate and smoke production, while shortening the time-to-ignition. Compressive stress had the reverse effect. Thi

Objective data from national surveillance programmes show that, on average, individuals accumulate high amounts of sedentary time per day and only a small minority of adults achieve physical activity guidelines. One potential explanation for the failure of interventions to increase population levels of physical activity or decrease sedentary time is that research to date has been unable to identify the specific behavioural levers in specific contexts needed to change behaviour.

Background: Increasing physical activity and decreasing sedentary behaviour is important for the prevention and treatment of childhood obesity. Interventions to decrease sedentary behaviour (primarily sedentary screen-time) in children have had success in reducing screentime, increasing physical activity and improving body composition. Active video games, where players physically interact with on-screen images, are a promising intervention for reducing sedentary behaviour and increasing physical activity.

During sports movements a player loads the surface, resulting in deformation that can change the surface behaviour, which in turn modifies the playe
