A computational study of the geometric and electronic properties of oxide perovskites, and an investigation into the role of vacancies for surface stability.
(University of Exeter Physics, 8 January 2024)A first principles study of surface energetics of the (001) surface terminations of nine oxide perovskites is presented. Additionally, investigation into the behaviour of vacancies as a function of depth from the surface ... -
Modelling landslide sediment and hazard cascades with limited data availability following large typhoon events in the Philippines
(University of Exeter Faculty of Environment, Science and Economy, 13 November 2023)Despite landslides acting as a dominant source of sediment within river catchments, the impact of sediment transport and delivery following an extreme weather event on channel geomorphological change is not yet well ... -
The development of a compact set-up for the characterisation of the opto-electronic properties of two-dimensional perovskites and their possible applications in healthcare
(University of Exeter Physics, 16 October 2023)This Masters by Research Thesis focuses on the development of a compact and versatile experimental set-up for the characterisation of a wide range of photophysical properties of layered perovskites and other atomically ... -
Health and well-being of young dinghy sailors
(University of Exeter Sport & Health Sciences, 16 March 2020)Dinghy sailing, although frequently researched at elite and developmental levels, lacked research focused on the foundation levels in children. This thesis employed qualitative and quantitative methods to investigate the ... -
Rethinking the Form and Function of Schools in Seventeenth-Century England: a detailed examination of the Wase Papers, Corpus Christi College, Oxford
(University of Exeter History, 16 October 2023)Historians writing about education in early modern England have generally been able to rely on only two types of primary source: contemporary authors who concentrated on teaching methods, and surviving school records. The ...
