Abstract:
Within the UK, space heating accounts for 66% of the total domestic energy used. New heating controls may offer a means to reduce this figure and help meet the UK s target of reducing its greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. However these technologies will only save energy if occupants are able to use them effectively. Currently, little is known about how occupants interact with their heating systems, in particular how they use the heating within their home and the reasons behind why it is used a specific way. To investigate further, this thesis presents research which used both qualitative and q

The thesis examines the Neolithic pottery from Wales and attempts to write a history of practices concerned with its construction and use. This work is undertaken from the standpoint that contingency, that is the constraints and possibilities of the history of objects, has a major role in their construction and use. The thesis begins with an examination of some ideas about contingency and history in archaeology, biological science, material culture studies, and philosophy to build a pragmatic methodology for the study of the material.

The popularity of online social networks has brought up new privacy threats.

Moreover, the well adapted ?friends-based? privacy control has proven to be ill-equipped to prevent dynamic information disclosure, such as in user text posts. Ironically, it fails to capture the dynamic nature of this data by reducing the problem to manual privacy management which is time-consuming, tiresome and error-prone task.

For this reason, the inhibition of Aβ aggregation and the destabilization of preformed fibrils have been identified as effective approaches for the prevention and treatment of AD.

Kant is famous for his use of transcendental arguments in the transcendental deduction. This thesis examines how such a transcendental argument is used within Kant’s methodological framework. Following the work of Henrich and Walker, the paper asks whether transcendental arguments in the Critique of Pure Reason are compatible with Kant’s methodology in general. We find that these arguments and Kant’s methodology are compatible, and that transcendental arguments are indeed very weak arguments by Walker’s standards.

Gifted readers tend to have an outstanding reading competence. Accordingly, they show a great interest in books and read more (often) than their average peers. This thesis aims at identifying the reading interests of high ability readers. Additionally, there will be examined whether they follow their interest by using a library.
