Deep structure ultrasound imaging using fundamental and third harmonic coded excitation techniques
A novel coded excitation method, combining Golay coding with fundamental and third harmonic 1, 3 chirps with resolution enhancement compression (REC) and frequency compounding, increases the axial resolution, lateral resolution, penetration depth and the contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) for an …

Exotic Dark Matter in the Early Universe
The fundamental nature of dark matter remains a mystery. As crucial evidence for its existence comes from its effects on early universe observables, perhaps clues to its fundamental nature also reside in its behavior in the early universe. In this thesis, I explore two scenarios in which dark …

MODELLING PORE-LEVEL PROPERTIES OF POROUS MATERIALS
Pore-Cor is a 1.2 Mbyte Fortran 77 software package, which uses information from mercury porosimetry curves, supported by image-analysed electron micrographs, to generate a three-dimensional representational model of the pore-space within a porous material. As a result of this project, a …

The genetic mechanisms that coordinate the development and morphological divergence of Drosophila genital structures
External male genitalia are one of the most rapidly evolving insect body parts. Although the developmental programmes required to form some of these structures are known to some extent, the genetic differences causing phenotypic divergence are not well understood. Drosophila simulans and D. …
