Abstract:
Studies have indicated that approximately 30% of people with heart disease experience major depressive disorder (MDD). Despite strong clinical evidence of a link between the two diseases, the neurobiological processes involved in the relationship are poorly understood. A growing number of studies are revealing similar neuroanatomical and neurochemical abnormalities resulting from both depression and heart disease. The locus coeruleus (LC) is a group of neurons in the pons that synthesize and release norepinephrine, and that is known to play a significant role in depression pathobiology. For ex

Abstract Cardiac hypertrophy is the primary adaptive mechanism of the heart to increased workload, though when advanced, it becomes a leading predictor for heart failure and sudden death.

Abstract:
The objective of this thesis is to improve existing and develop new DEM enhancement methods and DEM-based overland flow delineation methods in order to generate reliable overland flow networks. These networks can be used in conjunction with existing urban drainage modelling methodologies in order to improve surface flooding simulation results. The objective has been achieved by: developing new methods to merge DEMs; evaluating nad improving available DEM enhancement methods; improving methods to solve DEM flat area problems, and developing novel methods to improve overland flow path delineatio
