Abstract:

Blood is a vital part of the human physiology; a transport system that brings nutrients and oxygen to sustain living cells and simultaneously facilitates the removal of carbon dioxide and other waste products from the body. To assure the continuity of these functions, it is of uttermost importance to keep the flowing blood inside the vascular system at any cost. The principal components of the haemostatic system are the blood platelets and the plasma coagulation system, both working in concert to create a blood stopping haemostatic plug when a vessel is ruptured. In modern health care, methods

Abstract:

The software engineering community is concerned with improvements in existing methods and development of new and better methods. The research approaches applied to take on this challenge have hitherto focused heavily on the formal and specifying aspect of the method. This has been done for good reasons, because formalizations are the means in software projects to predict, plan, and regulate the development efforts. As formalizations have been successfully developed new challenges have been recognized. The human and social role in software development has been identified as the next area that n

This dissertation presents an exploration of the use of nonparametric statistical methods based on ranks for use in financial market research. Applications to event study methodology and the estimation of security systematic risk are analyzed using a simulation methodology with actual daily security return data. The results indicate that procedures based on ranks are more efficient than normal theory procedures currently in common use.

This thesis explored the concept of nurses' research literacy – how nurses' read and understand research literature. Through two systematic reviews of the literature, a pilot study and a qualitative research study, insights were formed into how nurses perceive research and how improved research literacy could be facilitated. Forty registered nurses from around Australia shared their experiences of learning about, reading and using research which led to different ways of thinking about teaching research.

Abstract:

Within sports and health sciences, the biomechanical study of human movement has many purposes, including rehabilitation, injury prevention and performance analysis. While in clinical biomechanics the main goal is to determine if a motion is physiological or if it differs from normal values, in the sports context the aim is finding the movement determinants that allows an athlete to perform at the highest possible level. Research in movement analysis is nowadays supported by multi-camera stereophotogrammetric systems, used to reconstruct three-dimensional body landmarks coordinates from video

The work contained in this thesis demonstrates that the introduction of power ultrasound into electrochemical systems can broaden the scope of techniques such as anodic stripping voltammetry. Analysis is facilitated by the well-documented phenomena associated with ultrasound, cavitation and acoustic streaming. Cavitation is caused by the collapse of voids created by ultrasonic compression and rarefaction of the solution and results in both localised high temperatures and pressures in the bulk solution and microjetting on the surface.

A strong understanding of quantitative research methods is a pre-requisite to psychological literacy and evidence-based practice in psychology.

Abstract:

The behaviour of zoo animals can come to anticipate temporally predictable feeding times. However, there is a lack of consensus over the effects of such routines on behaviour and welfare. Few studies have been published in this area, perhaps in part due to methodological challenges. The current programme of work therefore aimed to extend knowledge on the effect of predictable feeding routines, and to develop a suitable methodology to overcome challenges. Prior to predictable feeding, tigers showed patterns of increased ‘active’ behaviours such as locomotion and pacing, and decreased inactivity
