This study aimed to examine the impact of a Gallery-supported Arts Award programme on young people who have offended. Using a mixed methods approach, which principally employed qualitative and biographical techniques, this research embedded an innovative typology based on the memoirs of Brian Dillon. The typology helped to stimulate the memory recall of participants, and provided structure to the collation and analysis of the data. Conducted in two phases, I began by examining the impact of the Gallery-supported Summer Arts Colleges run from 2007 to 2011 on young people. In the second phase, i

Ion channel models are related to non-equilibrium statistical physics, fluid mechanics and electromagnetism. Some classes of ordinary differential equations that model ion channels can be seen as a limit of finite state-space continuous-time Markov chains. The purpose of this thesis is to qualitatively investigate the numerical results of systems of equations that incorporate ion channels modeled by such Markov chains and an electrical circuit model of a single neuron with isopotential extracellular space. This may be useful for making more detailed micro-physical simulations of neurons. A sub

Alignment is an important step indownstream analyses and the ability to map reads across splice junctions is a requirement ofan aligner to be suitable for mapping RNA-seq reads. Therefore, the necessity for a standardsplice-aware aligner. STAR, Rsubread and HISAT2 have not been singly studied for thepurpose of benchmarking one of them as a standard aligner for spliced RNA-se

The aim of this thesis is to explore the applicability of transaction cost theory to an emerging market context, and to complement it with institutional theory to achieve a closer fit.

The responses could range from internalisation, through cooperation, to the new concept of trading isolation, which is the first of two observed gaps in the literature.

Future uncertainty also has been considered to improve system reliability as well as economic feasibility.In this study, a general large-scale water supply system that is comprised of modular components was
