Abstract:
A lateral jet in a supersonic crossflow creates a highly complex three-dimensional flow field which is not easily predicted. The aim of this research was to assess the use of a RANS based CFD method to simulate a lateral jet in supersonic crossflow interaction by comparing the performance of available RANS turbulence models. Four turbulence models were trialled in increasingly complex configurations; a flat plate, a body of revolution and a body of revolution at incidence. The results of this numerical campaign were compared to existing experimental and numerical data. Overall the Spalart-Allm

Abstract:
This thesis examines the effect of vehicle dynamics on lateral deterioration of the track alignment. As rail traffic runs along a route, the forces imposed upon the track cause the ballast to settle, and hence the track geometry deteriorates. At a specified value of deterioration the track geometry needs to be restored by tamping or other methods. As the deterioration is mainly in the vertical direction, this aspect has been more widely studied and models have been developed to predict vertical track geometry deterioration. On the other hand, lateral track deterioration is not as well understo

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is one of the most common motor neuron disease. ALS affects both upper and lower motor neurons, resulting in death within 3-5 years after symptoms onset.

Abstract:
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a disease in which the motor neurons die in a progressive manner, leading to paralysis and muscle wasting. ALS is always fatal, usually through respiratory failure when the disease reaches muscles needed for breathing. Most cases are sporadic, but approximately 5–10% are familial. The first gene to be linked to familial ALS encodes the antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase-1 (SOD1). Today, more than 160 different mutations in SOD1 have been found in ALS patients.  The mutant SOD1 proteins cause ALS by gain of a toxic property that should be common to al

Abstract:
In this thesis, the lateral interactions involved in conversion of synthesis gas, a mixture of H2 and CO, to methane over Fe(100) and the effect they have on the kinetics of the process is explored. Understanding the methanation of syngas allows for a better understanding of the initial stages of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. Density functional theory was used to calculate the energies and properties of simple methanation adsorbates on an Fe(100) surface. All of the parameters were tested and optimized in order to find a balance between efficiency and accuracy. A number of configurations were cal

Abstract:
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis is the most common type of motor neuron disease, characterized by progressive degeneration of the upper and lower motor neurons. Sufferers present with symptoms of muscle weakness and this quickly develops on to paralysis and finally death due to respiratory failure within 5 years of disease onset. Although the majority of cases are sporadic, about 10% are familial and it is hoped that through the investigation of these few cases a greater understanding of the disease process, the reasons for its delayed onset and vulnerability of motor neurons will be achieved.

Abstract:
This thesis proposes a new Hollow Flange Steel Plate Girder (HFSPG) by welding industrially available cold-formed Rectangular Hollow Sections (RHS) to a web plate for use in long span construction. Design procedures presented in the national and international design guidelines were reviewed and suitable improvements were made to accurately predict the structural behaviour and capacities of HFSPGs by undertaking detailed experimental and numerical studies into their unique structural behaviour. Local buckling/yielding, global buckling and local-global interaction failures were all considered in
