Abstract:

This thesis takes as its focus contemporary painting, and develops an understanding of painting as a time-based medium. My research project addresses the array of strategies artists employ to produce durational paintings, a term I have coined as a means of referring to paintings that destabilise the traditional idea of painting as a static object, hung on a wall. The medium of painting embraces other mediums, such as performance and installation, to yield durational paintings. These paintings engage people in their production: vitally, they are participatory and are produced through collaborat

Abstract:

Bone grafts fill skeletal defects and provide a structure upon which new bone can be deposited. There is no standard method of storing bone prior to grafting, the three main storage regimes being stored fresh frozen at -80°C, gamma irradiated or freeze dried. The initial aim of this project was to determine how osteoblastic cells behaved when exposed to bone treated in the above ways. It was found that sterilisation of bone with gamma irradiation caused cell death in a number of the cells that came into contact with it. Therefore the use of gamma irradiation for grafting is contraindicated, a

Alkali-soluble resins (ASRs) were prepared by (i) solution and (ii) emulsion polymerization. All ASRs were synthesized with number-average molar masses < 20,000 g mol-1 and all had 15 wt% methacrylic acid 5 wt% styrene, the remaining 80 wt% was composed of either methyl methacrylate or a combination of methyl methacrylate and ethyl acrylate. All emulsion ASRs were made to 20% solids, with volume-average particle diameters (dv) in the region 30 – 50 nm, with a glass transition temperature of 80 – 120 °C. Emulsion polymerization was the preferred route for ASR synthesis, to allow further studies

Abstract:

Impaction grafting for bone stock loss in revision total hip arthroI;>lasty has been used for over a decade. This technique typically involves the insertion of a cemented highly polished stem into impacted morsellised allograft bone. The aim is to compensate for the bone stock loss after failed primary hip arthroplasty and to provide a mechanical and biological scaffold for mechanical support and bone remodelling. The primary objective of this study is to quantify and optimise the graft properties so as to provide maximum supportive forces to the stem, and, at' the same time, to minimise the a

Femoral impaction grafting is a technique where bone graft is impacted into the femur prior to cementing a stem in place. The technique is designed to compensate for bone stock loss in revision surgery, however it has associated problems of implant movement / subsidence and periprosthetic fractures. The hypothesis for this thesis was that the stability and remodelling of impaction grafting could be improved, either by changing the graft size or by adding a synthetic graft.
