Abstract:

As populations grow and urban centres expand, meeting water demand and wastewater management requirements will become increasingly difficult. Goal 6 of the Sustainable Development Goals is to: 'Ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all'. Part of the approach to achieving this will be reusing wastewater and will require a greater understanding of the institutional arrangements that support or obstruct reuse. This research was designed to achieve this and aimed to develop a set of factors that investors could use to assess the institutional feasibility of reu

Abstract:

In recent years our understanding of the physical demands of soccer has improved. We know that the intensity at which the game is played has increased and that the fixture schedules for professional teams can often be very congested. These factors are likely to have increased the importance placed on the physical condition of players. Therefore, the process of monitoring the fitness levels of players is likely to be an important task within clubs. Any fitness assessments that are employed need to be sensitive enough to detect changes that may result from different training stimuli. A further c

This thesis proposed simple strategies for Phosphorus (P) recovery that are adoptable and potentially retro-fittable to the majority of conventional wastewater treatment systems. For this purpose, the potential of some of the alternative available treatment methods to incorporate P recovery was studied. The four experimental chapters examined strategies to recover influent P as a concentrated P-liquor. It was clearly demonstrated that the granular sludge is promising technology that provides a unique opportunity for P recovery.

The vulnerability of complex networks to unexpected disruptive events could be reduced by increasing network resilience through the efficient recovery of the damaged network. To find the most efficient recovery strategy among the existing variety of strategies, a resilience-based framework was proposed and implemented for both localized attacks and cascading failures. For localized attacks, preferential recovery based on nodal weights (PRNW), periphery recovery (PR) and localized recovery (LR) were assessed.

Abstract:

Following exercise, a rapid return to optimal performance is desirable for athletes. Some types of physical activity can result in exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD), an occurrence which is well documented in adult populations. Symptoms of EIMD include increases in perceived muscle soreness, decrements in muscle strength and power, alterations in limb proprioception, increased myoprotein release, increased perceived exertion during exercise, and reduced endurance performance. Many strategies are currently employed in attempts to manage the symptoms of EIMD, though the majority are based on

The introduction and spread of invasive species are of major conservation concern. Invasive plant species are hypothesized to impact the population dynamics of native flora, including species at risk (SAR), and may disrupt the functioning of the plant communities which they invade. Some native plant populations may be more vulnerable due to pre-existing factors such as fragmented habitat, poor competitive nature, and/or limited geographical ranges. Because of this, the presence of one or more invasive species is frequently cited as a leading cause of at-risk species decline. However, the actua
