Laboratory hydraulic tensile strength correlation with strength-based brittleness indices for carbonate reservoirs
(2024)Hydraulic fracturing (HF) is the primary choice for stimulating petroleum reservoirs. Rock tensile strength and brittleness are crucial parameters required for screening candidate reservoirs and in designing successful HF ... -
Lime mortars for masonry repair: Analytical science and laboratory testing versus practical experience
(2006)This paper addresses the decay and performance of lime mortars used for repairs to masonry fabrics. It sets out how analytical science, laboratory testing and practical experience contribute to the diagnosis of mortar ... -
Material Flow Accounting in an Irish City-Region 1992-2002
(Elsevier, 2011)This paper aims to measure raw material inputs and waste flows in an Irish city-region in order to analyse (i) whether there was absolute dematerialisation in the particular case-study over the period 1992-2002 and (ii) ... -
Measuring risk of attack on bus networks
(2008)Public transport systems are at risk from attacks as they are open, dynamic systems carrying large numbers of people. Although attacks have been carried out on public transport since the 1920?s, the nature of attacks has ... -
Measuring the Transport Patterns of Those Living in Deprived Areas in Dublin, Ireland
(2012)This paper examines the relationship between social deprivation and travel patterns . Many studies ha ve examined the relationsh ip between deprivation and travel patterns , but few have compared those in the most ... -
Mechanical and fluid transfer properties of some lime and Portland cement mortars.
(Taylor and Francis Group, London., 2009)The type of binder determines mortar properties, and these impact the durability of masonry. This paper intends to assist on the choice of mortar for a particular fabric, by investigating the properties of mortars made ... -
Medieval lime-gypsum mortars in Ireland
(2023)Historic lime-gypsum mortars are rare in Ireland. Gypsum is hygroscopic and relatively soluble in water, hence common believe was that it would hydrate in the highly- humid Irish climate to quickly weather. The material ... -
Method to compare water content values determined on the basis of different oven drying temperatures

Micromobility and public transport integration: the current state of knowledge
(2020)Cities globally are grappling with the negative externalities of car travel and are therefore striving to move towards a more sustainable urban transportation system. The introduction and popularity of new personal transport ... -
Mitigation of Wind Induced Accelerations in Tall Modular Buildings
(2022)This paper compares two methods of mitigating wind induced vibrations in tall modular buildings. Tall buildings experience wind induced motion which can result in serviceability and habitability issues associated with ... -
