  A review of the engineering constraints and project management challenges involved in utilising Scot’s Church as a heritage asset through responsible adaptive reuse and conservation strategies 

  Smith, Oisín

  In the field of structural building, there has been a rising popularity in adaptive reuse of older structures, which stems from a variety of stimuli. Apart from preserving built heritage, providing old buildings with new ...

  Improving internal erosion resistance of silty sand using additives 

  O'Kelly, Brendan; Zomorodian, Seyed Mohammad Ali; Babaei, Shaghayegh Sadat; Moghispoor, Shabnam (2020)

  Seepage-induced erosion, leading to piping, is one of the most common causes of failure for earth dykes, levees and dams. Various soil improvement (mixing) technologies can be employed to improve the internal erosion ...

  A finite-strain hyperviscoplastic model and undrained triaxial tests of peat 

  O'Kelly, Brendan; Nagel, T.; Zhang, Lin (2017)

  This paper presents a finite-strain hyperviscoplastic constitutive model within a thermodynamically consistent framework for peat which was categorised as a material with both rate-dependent and thermodynamic equilibrium ...

  Determination of soil permeability coefficient following an updated grading entropy method 

  O'Kelly, Brendan; Nogal, Maria (2020)

  This paper presents a critical review of the grading entropy approach of permeability-coefficient predictions (k P) for coarse-grained soils. The approach applies the grading entropy theory to particle-size distributions ...
• Appraising an incentive only approach Encourage a sustainable reduction in private car trips in Dublin, Ireland 

  Caulfield, Brian; Carroll, Páraic; Ahern, Aoife (2020)

  The research presented in this paper examines the potential for a reduction in car use in the Greater Dublin Area (GDA) as a result of introducing a range of sustainable policy incentives. A package of mode-specific ...
