Abstract:
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a disease that affects the cartilage of weight-bearing joints. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive imaging method that is widely used for diagnosing OA. T1rho relaxation, or spin-lattice relaxation in the rotating frame, is a MRI technique that has been identified as a potential marker for changes in articular cartilage during the early stages of osteoarthritis. This thesis is a literature review of articles investigating the mechanisms behind T1rho relaxation. The review includes studies on T1rho relaxation in different biochemical environments that mimic

Abstract:
This thesis investigates quantum physics narratives for non-physicists, covering four interlocking modes of writing for adults and children, fictional and nonfictional, from 1900 to the present. It brings together three separate scholarly fields: literature and science, science fiction, and science communication. The thesis has revealed parallels between the approaches to quantum physics in these disparate narratives that have not been addressed before, shedding new light on the mutual influences between science and narrative form. The thesis argues that similar narrative tropes have been empl

This paper explores the possibility and relevance of theological study of backward time travel and its consequences. An examination of current research on backward time travel reveals a number of interdisciplinary topics which are not handled within physics. Some of these topics, mainly concerning free will and determination, are of interest to philosophers, whereas topics such as meaning and responsibility are left aside.   In theology, there is a general dismissal of the idea of backward time travel.

Abstract:
The American Projectivist verse of Jack Spicer, Charles Olson, and Robert Duncan contains within its poetics many epistemological assumptions shared by quantum physics. These assumptions exist in three broad categories: perception, process, and wholeness. In physics, the epistemology of perception has been profoundly altered by the Heisenberg Uncertainty Relation, which creates a symbiotic relationship between the observer and the observed. At least one photon of light is necessary to observe an electron; one photon is sufficient to alter the electron's momentum or position; therefore, a physi

This project explores the intersection of literature and science from the mid-eighteenth century to the mid-nineteenth century in the context of this shift in conceptions of space and time.

Furthermore, their attempts to spatially and temporally map the universe led to changes in perceptions of the relationship between the exterior world and the interior self.

Abstract:
This thesis considers a range of contemporary poets' responses to science, emphasising the diversity of these engagements and exploring how poetry can disrupt or re-negotiate the barriers between the two activities. My first chapter explores the idea of ‘authority' in both science and poetry and considers how these authorities co-exist in the work of two poet-scientists, Miroslav Holub and David Morley. My second chapter considers the role of metaphor in science and the effect of transferring scientific terms into poetry, specifically with reference to the poetry of Michael Symmons Roberts who

Abstract:
Digital media holds a strong presence in society today. Providers of digital media may choose to obtain a content rating for a given media item by submitting that item to a content rating authority. That authority will then issue a content rating that denotes to which age groups that media item is appropriate. Content rating authorities serve publishers in many countries for different forms of media such as television, music, video games, and mobile applications.

Abstract:
Physical activity among children and adolescents around the world is decreasing and will imply negative effects on their current and future health, which also contributes to higher costs for the society. Interventions promoting physical activity among youths could increase their physical activity and, at the same time, reduce the costs for society. The purpose of this study is to evaluate interventions for increased physical activity targeted towards children and adolescents from a health economic perspective. The results indicate that there exist different types of interventions and that the
