  • Sustainable Ecological Engineering Design for Society (SEEDS)
    1 Sustainable Ecological Engineering Design for Society (SEEDS) Fourth International SEEDS Conference 6th and 7th September 2018 Dublin Institute of Technology Ireland ABSTRACTS Conference Sponsors 2 THE FOURTH INTERNATIONAL SEEDS CONFERENCE 2018 Enabling Sustainability – Re-engaging stakeholders Grangegorman Campus, Dublin Institute of Technology, Ireland – 6th and 7th September 2018 The built environment has a greater impact on natural resources and produces more waste than any other industry. However, beyond the green rhetoric research is being applied on the ground to address the balance between the built and natural environment. The International SEEDS Conference, now in its 4th year, brings together experts from around the world focusing on the changes that are taking place and the benefits or consequences that are being predicted and measured regarding the built environment’s impacts. As well as addressing technical issues, measuring energy efficiency and modelling energy performance, emphasis is placed on the health and wellbeing of the users of spaces occupied and enclosed. Understanding how buildings and spaces are designed and nurtured to obtain the optimal outcome is the focus of discussion and debate. This holistic approach draws together the research themes of energy, building performance and physics while placing health, wellbeing and ecology at the heart of the conference. Through research and proven practice, the aim of the SEEDS conference is to foster ideas on how to reduce negative impacts on the environment while providing for the health and wellbeing of the society. The professions and fields of research required to ensure buildings meet user demands and provide healthy enclosures are many and diverse.

  • American and British Soft Power in Iran, 1953- 1960
    A ‘Special Relationship?’ American and British Soft Power in Iran, 1953- 1960 PhD in History Department of History Darius Wainwright July 2019 I confirm that this is my own work and the use of all material from other sources has been properly and fully acknowledged. Darius Wainwright Acknowledgements Yes, my name is at the front of this thesis, but it would not have been possible without the help and support of a number of people. First, my supervisor, Dr Mara Oliva. Her guidance and feedback have been invaluable, as has her belief in this project and, more importantly, in myself. Mara’s not just been such a huge help with this thesis, but with my professional development, too. For both these things, I am eternally grateful. Thanks must also go to the University of Reading’s Department of History. I arrived as a naïve, eager 22-year-old MA student and will leave as a historian and more well-rounded human being. More than anything else, this is a testament to the department’s staff, who have all, in a myriad of ways, helped me achieve my goals. Discussions on wrestling and Liverpool teams of yesteryear aside, Dr Dafydd Townley has been an invaluable sounding board for ideas and a keen listener when I’ve needed to talk things through. He also lived with me for a week when we undertook research in the US, which is no mean feat! A huge thank you, too, must go to Professor Emily West and Dr Jacqui Turner. Both have frequently enquired about my progress and have been incredibly supportive.
