This thesis explores aspects of Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus) epidemiology and control, in view of the possible widespread introduction of conjugate vaccines in England and Wales. A review and analysis of a range of different epidemiological data sources showed that the burden of pneumococcal disease in England and Wales is high and remains mostly a condition of the very young and the elderly. A meta-analysis demonstrated the effectiveness of the polysaccharide vaccine against invasive pneumococcal disease among healthy elderly, to whom vaccination was not recommended at the start of

Abstract:

This thesis is concerned with mathematical modelling and optimal control of constrained systems. Each of the systems under consideration is a system that can be controlled by one of the variables, and this control is subject to constraints. First, we consider middle-distance running where a runner's horizontal propulsive force is the control which is constrained to be within a given range. Middle-distance running is typically a strategy-intensive race as slipstreaming effects come into play since speeds are still relatively fast and runners can leave their starting lane. We formulate a two-run

In order to achieve such reductions, the UK has chosen to support the growth of low-carbon renewable electricity generation industries such as wind, solar, wave and tidal power.

Abstract:

In this thesis, we introduce a non-probabilistic model for the short-term interest rate. The key concepts involved in this new approach are the non-diffusive nature of the short rate process and the uncertainty in the model parameters. The model assumes the worst possible outcome for the short rate path when pricing a fixed-income product (from the point of view of the holder) and differs in many important ways from the traditional approaches of fully deterministic or stochastic rates. In this new model, delta hedging and unique pricing play no role, nor does any market price of risk term appe

Recent empirical research on meat demand has debated whether or not the effects of changing meat prices can explain all the observed changes in meat consumption patterns. This thesis provides a framework for modelling and testing for structural change using three commonly used demand system -- a linear demand system, an inverse demand system, and the Almost Ideal Demand System (AIDS). Emphasis is placed on the statistical adequacy of the models. Two specific issues are carefully addressed: consumer concern for cholesterol and its effect on meat demand, and the dynamics of adjustment in meat co

Energy markets feature a wide range of unusual price behaviour along with a complicated dependence structure between electricity, natural gas, coal and carbon, as well as other variables. We approach this broad modelling challenge by firstly developing a structural framework to modelling spot electricity prices, through an analysis of the underlying supply and demand factors which drive power prices, and the relationship between them. We propose a stochastic model for fuel prices, power demand and generation capacity availability, as well as a parametric form for the bid stack function which m

A major contribution of research in workplace literacy has been to explore the part that writing plays in the knowledge-making practices of various professional groups. While such enquiry has revealed that writing is essential to the creation and use of specialized knowledge in the professions, it also points to the need to see writing as part of a larger network of symbolic activity. Researchers have shown that practitioners in certain professions---for example, engineering and architecture---do not produce knowledge solely through the social negotiations of language; rather, acts of writing

Economic and social stability across the world is tightly dependent on a sufficient and reliable flow of goods and services, based on the balance between supply and demand.

CIs are strongly interdependent in two complex ways: namely, physical and informational. Identification of CI interdependencies and interconnections is essential for the study of such supply and demand systems. Importantly, C

Catalytic hydrotreating (HDT) is a mature process technology practiced in the petroleum refining industries to treat oil fractions for the removal of impurities (such as sulfur, nitrogen, metals, asphaltene). Hydrotreating of whole crude oil is a new technology and is regarded as one of the more difficult tasks that have not been reported widely in the literature. In order to obtain useful models for the HDT process that can be confidently applied to reactor design, operation and control, the accurate estimation of kinetic parameters of the relevant reaction scheme are required.

An aortic dissection is a tear of the intima of the aortic wall that spreads into the media or between the media and adventitia. In addition to the original lumen for blood flow, the dissection creates a new flow channel, the `false' lumen that may cause the artery to narrow or even close over entirely. Aortic dissection is a medical emergency and can quickly lead to death. The mechanical property of the aorta has been described by the strain energy function given by Holzapfel et al. [2000].

Abstract:

The mitotic cell cycle is fundamental to eukaryotic life. In mitosis, replicated chromosomes are segregated to form two new nuclei. This is essential to ensure the maintenance of chromosome number between parent and daughter cells. In higher eukaryotes, numerous cytological changes occur to facilitate the separation of the genetic material: the nuclear envelope breaks down, the mitotic spindle assembles, and the cell rounds-up. There is a well-conserved control network that regulates these processes to bring about the entry into mitosis, the separation of the genetic material, and the reversal

Abstract:

Mobility and migration patterns, the concentration of crime and opinion dynamics observed on the fear of crime are all examples of social systems in which complex patterns emerge that subsequently feed back into the overall system. This thesis describes new methods established to analyse such patterns which appear in social systems. The main application area is in the field of crime science, but the methods developed here have wider applications within other social systems, some of which are also explored in the thesis, such as migration or road accidents. Based on new assessments of data, by

Abstract:

Membrane transport proteins have recently been discovered to be ubiquitously expressed in the human body and of paramount importance in cellular uptake. Since all pharmaceutical compounds must pass through numerous cell membranes to travel and be absorbed by their target cells in order to achieve their desired therapeutic effects, transporters have attracted a lot of attention as a research field. As an emerging focus area, the precise mechanism of action of many of these transporters remains to be fully elucidated. In order to gain a detailed insight into these processes it is proposed to car

Abstract:

This thesis is concerned with mathematical modelling of oncolytic virotherapy: the use of genetically modified viruses to selectively spread, replicate and destroy cancerous cells in solid tumours. Traditional spatially-dependent modelling approaches have previously assumed that virus spread is due to viral diffusion in solid tumours, and also neglect the time delay introduced by the lytic cycle for viral replication within host cells. A deterministic, age-structured reaction-diffusion model is developed for the spatially-dependent interactions of uninfected cells, infected cells and virus par
