Abstract:
The work presented in this thesis is primarily concerned with modelling the formation of secondary organic aerosols (SOAs). SOAs cannot easily be measured with direct analytical chemical methods; indirect methods like applying organic carbon to elemental carbon ratios and utilising computer models have been employed to provide an estimate of the SOA mass concentrations in ambient air. The five models presented in this work were either developed or assessed using environmental chamber data. Chamber experiments were undertaken using initial isoprene concentrations in the range of 22 ppb to 343

Abstract:
The early dispersals of hominins have been a major focus of Palaeolithic research in the last 50 years. In this dissertation I have applied a formal modelling technique, simulation, to a selection of archaeological research topics concerning hominin dispersals in order to test the suitability of this tool for formal theory development and hypothesis testing. Therefore, the aims of this research are twofold. The archaeological aim is to improve our understanding of hominin dispersals in the Pleistocene, whilst the methodological contribution was achieved by employing a relatively unknown and un

L’Splicing de les molècules d’ARN és el procés pel qual les seqüències interposades (“introns”) s’eliminen, i les seqüències restants es concatenen per a formar l’ARN madur. La investigació recent mostra que gairebé tots els gens amb splicing es veuen afectats per splicing alternatiu. Aquí, en primer lloc definim la longitud mínima d’un oligomer d’ARN per a funcionar com a lloc d’unió d’un factor d’splicing.

We have modelled epioptic systems using semi-empirical methods. We apply one such theoretical technique, Berreman’s 4x4 matrix formalism, to simulate and compare the results of various epioptic spectroscopies when applied to model systems. We place particular emphasis on 45° reflectivity spectroscopy (45DR), and demonstrate its potential for the study of systems with surface regions of mixed isotropic and anisotropic character. We also demonstrate the superior surface senstiviity of 45DR when compared to spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) and show that 45DR is inherently more stable with regards

In the input section, existing methods of describing the solar irradiation that is incident at the primary optical element of a CPV system are discussed, the inadequacies of the existing methods are explored and conditions of validity for their use drawn. An improved and spectrally extended model for a variable, spatially resolved solar image is arrived at.

As a result of the accelerating demands for faster development within the heavy vehicle industry, computer aided simulations have become a more important tool in the development process. Simulations can offer faster evaluation of loads acting on the vehicle and more cost effective fatigue life predictions than physical testing, since physical prototypes are not needed for load measurements or fatigue tests. However, accurate fatigue life predictions without physical verification are today a difficult task with many uncertainties, yet simulations are still an important part of modern product de

Modern electromagnetic problems are becoming increasingly complex and their simulation must take into account geometrical features that are both large and small compared to the wavelength of interest. These multi-scale problems lead to a heavy computational burden in a discretised computational simulation approach since the small features require fine mesh to be used in the simulation, resulting in large run time and memory storage. To overcome such problems, this thesis presents an efficient and versatile method for embedding small features into an otherwise coarse mesh. The embedded model el
