This thesis details the synthesis of six new rhodium(I)-vinyl and -aryl complexes and their extensive characterisation using a suite of spectroscopic techniques with a primary emphasis on the evaluation of these complexes ...

In this thesis, robust and multi-objective portfolio selection problem will be studied. New models and computational algorithms will be developed to solve the proposed models. In particularly, we have studied multi-objective ...

Soft interfaces play a fundamental role in many biological and industrial processes. In this work, atomistic simulations were used to study the structural properties of the interfaces between water and five organic solvents, ...

This research explored the factors influencing physical activity in cancer survivors prior to a clinical trial of a wearable activity tracker to increase physical activity. Survivors lacked motivation and desired informational ...

Although mechanical loading correlate to multi-hierarchical changes, the multiscale response during tendon damage remains not yet fully understood. Therefore, this thesis assessed the multiscale structure-function ...
