An exploration of the measured and modelled thermal characteristics of structural thermal breaks in UK buildings (2024)
Thesis
Pemberton, J. An exploration of the measured and modelled thermal characteristics of structural thermal breaks in UK buildings. (Thesis). University of Salford

This research explores the measured and modelled thermal characteristics of structural thermal breaks (STBs) in UK buildings. Thermal bridging (TB) in building envelopes can significantly affect the fabric heat loss of a building, leading to higher e...

Targeting Transcriptional CDKs in Medulloblastoma (2024)
Thesis
Safari, N. (2024). Targeting Transcriptional CDKs in Medulloblastoma. (Thesis). University of Salford

Medulloblastoma (MB) is the most common malignant tumour of the brain in children. Current treatments include surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Although the five-year survival rate is over 70%, the treatment is exceptionally aggressive, leaving... Read More about Targeting Transcriptional CDKs in Medulloblastoma.

Modelling Community Disaster Resilience: A Participatory Approach (2024)
Thesis
Tariq, H. (2024). Modelling Community Disaster Resilience: A Participatory Approach. (Thesis). University of Salford

Due to the increasingly complex nature of climate change impacts, decision-makers such as local government practitioners and community members need more inclusive tools to assess their communities' resilience to environmental risks and natural hazard...

"Waiting for Robbins” Modernist Architecture as a Representation of Transitional Education at the Royal Technical College, Salford, 1961-1964. (2024)
Thesis
Hadfield, S. (2024). "Waiting for Robbins” Modernist Architecture as a Representation of Transitional Education at the Royal Technical College, Salford, 1961-1964. (Thesis). University of Salford

Was the University of Salford a ‘new university’? Both technically and legally, Salford became a new university via Royal Charter on 4 April 1967. However, the University’s history can be traced back to its foundations in 1892. The Vice Chancellor, W...

Framework for Implementing Risk-Sensitive Urban Development (2024)
Thesis
Roslan, A. F. Framework for Implementing Risk-Sensitive Urban Development. (Thesis). University of Salford

Risk-sensitive urban development is an innovative approach that can help cities reduce risk by mainstreaming climate change adaptation (CCA) and disaster risk reduction (DRR) strategies into urban development. However, the potential for such an appro... Read More about Framework for Implementing Risk-Sensitive Urban Development.

Evaluation of a novel device to assess combined knee flexion and hip extension, and hip flexion force production capability (2024)
Thesis
Calderbank, J. (2024). Evaluation of a novel device to assess combined knee flexion and hip extension, and hip flexion force production capability. (Thesis). University of Salford

Background: The late flight phase (FP) of the sprint running action is essential to enable the ‘forward most limb’ to prepare for ground contact. Kinetic and kinematic factors during the FP show association to sprinting speed. While isometric assessm...

Evaluating the Impact of E-Liquids on Small Extracellular Vesicles Released from Three-Dimensional Cell Culture of Human Lung Cells (2024)
Thesis
Couchman, A. (2024). Evaluating the Impact of E-Liquids on Small Extracellular Vesicles Released from Three-Dimensional Cell Culture of Human Lung Cells. (Thesis). University of Salford

Small Extracellular Vesicles (sEVs), membrane-bound vesicles used in cellular communication can be used as a source of biomarkers for lung damage and disease, to minimise need for invasive test procedures. E-cigarette use has grown in recent years, b... Read More about Evaluating the Impact of E-Liquids on Small Extracellular Vesicles Released from Three-Dimensional Cell Culture of Human Lung Cells.

Evaluation of Novel Diketones as Anti-cancer Agents (2024)
Thesis
Ali, M. (2024). Evaluation of Novel Diketones as Anti-cancer Agents. (Thesis). University of Salford

Recent studies indicated high levels of cytotoxicity of dibenzoylmethane (DBM) and its derivatives on some mammalian cancer cells. On the other hand, p53 tumour suppressor is a DNA damage inducible transcription factor mutated in over half of human c... Read More about Evaluation of Novel Diketones as Anti-cancer Agents.

Behaviour of Masonry Arches Under Foundation Movement (2024)
Thesis
Naggasa, A. (2024). Behaviour of Masonry Arches Under Foundation Movement. (Thesis). University of Salford

A significant number of UK bridges are masonry arches, with over 60% being more than a century old and bearing loads beyond their initial design intent. This poses a challenge for longterm assessment. Current assessment tools range from simplistic t... Read More about Behaviour of Masonry Arches Under Foundation Movement.

Integrating Urban Land-use And Road Networks In Developing Countries Applying TOD Methods To The Case Of Gaza City (2024)
Thesis
Shabat, A. Y. (2024). Integrating Urban Land-use And Road Networks In Developing Countries Applying TOD Methods To The Case Of Gaza City. (Thesis). University of Salford

Land use is rapidly changing and progressively facing more complex challenges in sustaining people’s needs, therefore the planning and design of road networks. For example, accessibility and transport are a key factors driving the expansion and effec...
