Abstract:
Team games are complicated activities, which involve much interaction between players. Analysing these interactions is of considerable interest; however it is time consuming, error prone, and unreliable to manuallly obtain the positions of the players throughout a game. Automating this process could produce efficient and repeatable results. Multiple object tracking in large, congested, rapidly changing, and frequently occluded domains (for example a soccer pitch) is a complex problem, particularly given the non-linear nature of each player's movements. This thesis presents a stochastic samplin

Abstract:
Human pregnancy disorders such as miscarriage, pre-eclampsia, intrauterine growth restriction and adherent placenta are thought to have their origins in defective trophoblastic invasion of the decidua. However, an elucidation of the exact mechanism of invasion is elusive because of poor understanding of early trophoblastdecidua interactions. Research is hampered by the inaccessibility of site of implantation, ethical constraints on studies of human pregnancy and lack of an adequate animal model.

Dimethylsulphide (DMS) is a climate-relevant trace gas derived from the algal secondary metabolite dimethylsulphoniopropionate (DMSP). DMS and DMSP have been shown to act as infochemicals (information-conveying chemicals) for a variety of organisms over a wide range of spatial and temporal scales. Grazing by microzooplankton increases the production of DMS, which in turn may act as an infochemical cue to attract carnivorous copepods that preferentially prey on herbivorous microzooplankton.

Abstract:
Abstract Water resources management calls for methods to simultaneously manage groundwater (GW) and surface water (SW) systems. These have traditionally been considered separate units of the hydrological cycle, which has led to oversimplification of exchange processes at the GW-SW interface. This thesis studied GW hydrology and the previously unrecognised connection of the Rokua esker aquifer with lakes and streams in the area, with the aim of identifying reasons for lake water level variability and eutrophication in the Rokua esker. GW-SW interactions in the aquifer were first studied with fi

Abstract:
Aero-engine intakes play a critical role in the performance of modern high-bypass turbofan engines. It is their function to provide uniformly distributed, steady air flow to the engine fan face under a variety of flow conditions. However, during situations of high incidence, high curvature of the intake lip can accelerate flow to supersonic speeds, terminating with a shock wave. This produces undesirable shock wave boundary layer interactions (SWBLIs). Reynolds-Averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) turbulence models have been shown to be insensitive to the effects of boundary layer relaminarisation pr

Abstract:
With increasing number of nanoproducts being commercialized globally; and consequent release of engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) into different environmental compartments with unknown impacts has raised concerns. Several experimental studies have attempted to elucidate the fate of ENPs in the aquatic systems especially following their interactions with natural organic matter (NOM). This consequently makes valuation of the fate and behavior of ENPs essential especially when it comes to the design of goods that are harmless and function as intended without causing unwanted special effects to biol
