Stratigraphy, sedimentology and palaeontology of the Lower Carboniferous of Anglesey
Thesis
(1983). Stratigraphy, sedimentology and palaeontology of the Lower Carboniferous of Anglesey

The Anglesey Dinantian succession records the establishment and growth of a land-attached carbonate platform. Onlap of underlying basement terrain and marginal terrigenoclastic accumulations is readily demonstrated. Carbonate deposition however was r...

3D geological modelling of superficial deposits, bedrock stratigraphy and fracture networks, Dounreay, Scotland: implications for subsurface contaminant pathways
Thesis
(2012). 3D geological modelling of superficial deposits, bedrock stratigraphy and fracture networks, Dounreay, Scotland: implications for subsurface contaminant pathways

Any industrial site producing contaminants (including chemical and radiological materials), will be constructed on or below the surface, whose associated properties determine how fluid and contaminants travel. The Dounreay Nuclear Power Establishment...

Fluid flow in the Sub Andean fold and thrust belt, Bolivia
Thesis
(2013). Fluid flow in the Sub Andean fold and thrust belt, Bolivia

Understanding fluid flow in fold and thrust belts has the potential to offer enormous insight into hydrocarbon accumulations in regions dominated by such structurally complex settings. Thrusting episodes can be key in creating a complete petroleum sy... Read More about Fluid flow in the Sub Andean fold and thrust belt, Bolivia.

Structure and geometry of accommodation zones in host and supra-jacent sediments associated with the collapse of salt anticlines
Thesis
anticlines

The collapse of host sediments at the crests of salt anticlines is associated with the devel- opment of hydrocarbon traps in salt overburden rocks, and stratigraphic traps in palaeo- valleys incising salt wall crests. The capacity and integrity of th... Read More about Structure and geometry of accommodation zones in host and supra-jacent sediments associated with the collapse of salt anticlines.

Exploring the interface of marketisation and education for sustainable development in English higher education
Thesis
Bessant, S. (2017). Exploring the interface of marketisation and education for sustainable development in English higher education

This thesis explores the ideological and the practical relationship between Marketisation and Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) in English higher education (HE) – focusing on the political-economic ideology of Neoliberalism and associated p...

X-ray spectroscopy and variability of the luminous quasar PDS 456
Thesis
Matzeu, G. (2017). X-ray spectroscopy and variability of the luminous quasar PDS 456

In this thesis I present contemporary X-ray observations of the “Rosetta Stone” of black hole winds, the luminous quasar PDS 456. I perform a detailed analysis of a recent, long Suzaku campaign in 2013 (of ~ 1 Ms duration) where the X-ray flux was un...

The detection of Forensic and Archaeological burials using geophysics and soil analysis
Thesis
Dick, H. C. (2017). The detection of Forensic and Archaeological burials using geophysics and soil analysis

Graveyards and cemeteries around the world are increasingly being designated as full. There is growing requirements to identify burial space or to exhume and re-inter if necessary. Near-surface geophysical methods offer a potentially non-invasive tar... Read More about The detection of Forensic and Archaeological burials using geophysics and soil analysis.

Narrowing the gap between smart metering and everyday life. Comfort, cleanliness and smart metering technologies in undergraduate students’ households.
Thesis
Lőrincz, M. J. (2017). Narrowing the gap between smart metering and everyday life. Comfort, cleanliness and smart metering technologies in undergraduate students’ households

Smart meters measure aggregate energy consumption for an entire building. Recent literature suggests that disaggregated information describing appliance-by-appliance electricity consumption is more effective than aggregate information (Kelly et al. 2...

Student learning through work placements
Thesis
Duke, B. (2017). Student learning through work placements

The core aim of this research study is to analyse the effects of experiential learning pedagogy on students, received during work based student placements. This study identifies and examines the perceptions held by higher education (HE) stakeholders,... Read More about Student learning through work placements.
