Enzymatic-induced calcite precipitation (EICP) method for improving hydraulic erosion resistance of surface sand layer: a laboratory investigation
(2023)
As a bio-inspired calcite precipitation method, bio-grouting via enzymatic-induced calcite precipitation (EICP) uses free urease enzyme to catalyze the urea hydrolysis reaction. This soil stabilization approach is relatively ...
Digital image correlation and finite element modelling as a method to determine mechanical properties of human soft tissue in vivo.
(2009)
The mechanical properties of human soft tissue are crucial for impact biomechanics, rehabilitation engineering
and surgical simulation. Validation of these constitutive models using human data remains challenging and
often ...
Shear Layer Dynamics of a Cylindrical Cavity for Different Acoustic Resonance Modes
(2010)
This paper investigates the interaction between the shear layer over a circular cavity and the flow-excited acoustic response of the volume to shear layer instability modes. Within the fluid-resonant category of cavity ...
Impact of Sources of Damping On the Fragility Estimates of Wind Turbine Towers
(2024)
Fragility estimates in wind turbine towers have been investigated but the the effect of damping on fragility has not been studied. While damping can often be small, it can come from different sources for a wind turbine. ...
Heat Transfer Behaviour and Flow Field Characterisation of Impinging Synthetic Jets for a Wide Range of Parameters
(ASME, 2010)
Impinging synthetic jets are considered as a potential solution for convective cooling, in applications that match their main characteristics (high local heat transfer rates, zero net mass flux, scalability, active control). ...
Transport Smartphone Applications Survey
(2012)
This paper
examines methods of communicating and presenting information to individuals
about transport and travel related carbon emissions for online journey planners and
smartphone applications.
As users may not be ...
Use of fall-cone flow index for soil classification: a new plasticity chart
(2022)
Use of the Casagrande-style plasticity chart to classify fine-grained soils using Atterberg's liquid and plastic limits is ubiquitous in geotechnical engineering. This classification is dependent on the thread-rolling and ...
Examining the changes in car ownership levels in the Greater Dublin Area between 2006 and 2011
(2015)
The aim of this study was to examine the changing nature of car
ownership in the
Greater Dublin Area (GDA) and to determine the character
istics of households most
likely to have changed ...
