Abstract:

2011 - 2012<br>Wildland fires have always been undesired and dangerous events. The danger includes the destruction of a renewable natural resource, damage of the atmospheric environment through the emissions of pollutant gases, which contribute to the greenhouse effect, and threat to the lives of people living in the areas surrounding the place where fire occurs and of the members of firefighting teams. To cope with all this, it is necessary to know the behaviour of the fire in order to be able to make adequate and proper decisions that will assist activities implemented in fire suppression an

Abstract:

This study traces the development of the East End’s artists’ agglomeration from its origins in 1968 until 1998 through a geographical history of the studio blocks in which those artists have worked. The thesis concentrates on visual artists and the ways in which they have commandeered space in which to work. The thesis argues that the agglomeration may be conceptualised as a complex adaptive system which has evolved in the “edge of chaos” urban environment which arose in the East End as it made the transition from an industrial to a post-industrial district.

Abstract:

Energy storage using organic phase change materials (PCMs) has attracted significant attention in recent years for renewable energy utilization in building materials. PCMs are capable of storing and releasing a large amount of latent heat during their phase transitions. Paraffin (PA), a eutectic mixture (EM) of capric acid (CA) and lauric acid (LA) and butyl stearate (BS) have been selected as PCMs for this work due to their melting temperatures being close to human comfort temperature, 17 - 28 oC.

Abstract:

Fire brigades in the UK are currently exploring initiatives aimed at improving "Quality of Service".

Of the routes that are available towards quality improvement, Total Quality Management, or TQM is one that is gaining in popularity.

Abstract:

Firefighting is an inherently dangerous occupation involving numerous risk sources, unique contexts, multiple personnel and rapidly changing environments. Firefighting operations are dynamic in nature yet require calculated risk taking and structured command to prevent the realisation of potentially catastrophic outcomes to both casualties and rescuers. The notion of “dynamic risk management” is a term that has gained popularity throughout fire services worldwide, yet the process of dynamic risk management is typically poorly articulated. This study demonstrates ‘dynamic risk management’ is a

Abstract:

A computer model of fine magnetic particles has been developed based on the Landau-Lifshitz equation. It is a dynamic model which allows the detailed behaviour of the magnetic moments during magnetisation changes to be investigated. The model was initially used to study gyroremanent magnetisation (GRM) which is observed in magnetic rocks. Stephenson proposed that GRM was caused by the gyroscopic precession of the moments. In collaboration with Stephenson a model was developed to show the complex motion of the moments in an alternating field and it was found that positive and negative cycles of

Using concepts of cognitive evolutionary theory, the author explores how narrative storytelling manifests itself in Denis Johnson's novella Train Dreams. The novella form is also discussed, focusing on its manipulation of linear time, its naturalization of supernatural elements, and its deconstruction of dichotomous relationships. Utilizing the novella's distinct structural and thematic elements, Johnson's text shows the myth of American expansionism and industrial progress and that of Kootenai holism in collision, resulting in a narrative renegotiation that seeks to affirm coexistence and com

My research aims to do the following: (1) address a gap in the current literature on Irma Stern and her African periods (2) to consider whether Stern's mature periods, Zanzibar and Congo reveal an imaginary 'primitivist' mode of representation.

Charles Stewart Parnell was James Joyce's most significant political influence to a degree that has yet to be fully acknowledged or explored.

In Joyce's juvenilia, political writings, and early fiction, Parnell always appears with a heroic, even Messianic, cast, which the most significant moments in the fiction pair with a strict adherence to dramatic forms.
