Optimization of Vancomycin Therapy in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU)
Published 2025Vancomycin is the first-line treatment for staphylococcal infections in neonates, yet safe and effective dosing remains difficult because of limited clinical data and major developmental differences in pharmacokinetics ...Open AccessThesis -
Toward Scalable and Generalisable Garment Simulation with Graph Neural Networks
Published 2025Realistic garment simulation is essential for applications such as film production, video games and fashion design. While physics-based methods remain dominant for their accuracy and generality, they rely on costly numerical ...Open AccessThesis -
Parametrising Neural Feedback Policies with Stability and Robustness Guarantees
Published 2025Learning-based control is a powerful tool for nonlinear control in complex dynamical systems. Driven by the rise of deep Reinforcement Learning (RL), most approaches parametrise control policies with black-box neural ...Open AccessThesis -
Interventions for promoting physical activity to women aged 50 years and over
Published 2025Physical inactivity is a major global health challenge, contributing to chronic disease, disability, and premature mortality. There is strong evidence for the health benefits of physical activity but only a third of adults ...Open AccessThesis -
The Role of Latissimus Dorsi in Trunk Movement and Stability
Published 2025The latissimus dorsi is the most expansive muscle in the human body, spanning from the pelvis, lumbar spine, ribs, and scapula before inserting on the humerus. Its broad attachments suggest a role in trunk movement and ...Open AccessThesis
