Bicycle infrastructure preferences - A case study of Dublin
(2012)This paper examines infrastructure preferences for cyclists. While the culture of cycling in the UK and Ireland has experienced some growth over the past decade, particularly in the urban areas, much debate exists ... -
Biopolymer based soil treatment for geotechnical engineering applications
(Springer, Singapore, 2023)Biopolymers (natural polymers) are exuded by micro- and macro-organisms (bacteria, plants, etc.) and have been shown to affect the geotechnical engineering behavior and properties of different soil types for low dosage ... -
Briefing: Atterberg limits and peat
(2016) -
A Case for Facade Located Solar Thermal Collectors
(2015)This paper explores the potential for façade located solar thermal collectors. Building typologies with limited roof space area are highlighted. A relationship exists between hot water consumption and the solar collector ... -
Case Study Using LIDAR to Measure the Morphology of a Bog
(2007)Bogs are dynamic hydrological systems. The morphology of a bog changes annually, effectively swelling during the wintertime and shrinking during the summertime, and the dynamics of the morphology must be understood to ... -
Chapter 11: Case studies of vacuum consolidation ground improvement in peat deposits
(Butterworth-Heinemann (Elsevier), 2015) -
Characterisation and undrained strength of amorphous clay
(2014)This paper presents the physiochemical properties and relationship of saturated remoulded undrained shear strength, sur, against water content, w, for an amorphous organic clay, namely an alum water-treatment residue ... -

(Donhead, 2003)This paper provides a continuation of `The Characteristics and Properties of Rubbing Bricks used for Gauged Brickwork ? Part One?, published by Gerard Lynch and Sara Pavia in the March 2003 issue of the Journal of ... -
Closure to Discussion by K. Prakash and A. Sridharan of Atterberg limits and remolded shear strength water content relationships [Geotechnical Testing Journal, Vol. 36, No. 6, pp. 939 947]
(2014)This article presents the closure to the discussion on the Geotechnical Testing Journal, GTJ20130012 , Vol. 36, No. 6, which had three stated objectives : (i) a critical assessment of empirical methods for ... -
A combined assessment of air and noise pollution on the High Line, New York City
(2015)The High Line is an elevated public park in New York City, transformed from an unused freight rail line. Pedestrians walking through Manhattan’s West Side can walk either on the High Line or on a footpath below. Using ... -
A comparative study of the compressive, flexural and bond strength of brick masonry.
(Taylor and Francis, 2009)Due to their physical and chemical properties, mortars made with lime are considered to be more compatible with historic fabrics than those made with artificial cements. This paper intends to contribute to the knowledge ... -
A comparative study of the environmental impact of alkali activated and traditional materials
(2022)Many construction materials carry significant environmental impacts because they require high energy input and non-renewable materials for production, contributing to material depletion and greenhouse gas emissions. In ...
