Decellularization and recellularization of cornea: Progress towards a donor alternative.
(2020)The global shortage of donor corneas for transplantation has led to corneal bioengineering being investigated as a method to generate transplantable tissues. Decellularized corneas are among the most promising materials ... -
DECIPHERING THE EFFECT OF CURRICULA ON THE PERCEPTION OF THIRD LEVEL ENGINEERING - A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS
(2012)Recent PISA surveys have shown that Ireland’s relative ranking in Mathematics has fallen sharply, while Finland maintains its posit ion at the top of the international table. Simultaneously, ... -
Deciphering the Molecular Mechanisms of Stem Cell Mechanotransduction: A New Avenue for the Development of Therapeutics for Osteoporosis
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Discipline of Mechanical & Manuf. Eng, 2019)Osteoporosis is characterised by reduced bone density and weakened bone architecture leading to high fracture risk. The changes in bone result from an imbalance in the bone remodelling cycle whereby the rate of resorption ... -
A Decrement Method for Quantifying Nonlinear and Linear Damping in Multidegree of Freedom Systems
(2011)A method is presented which can estimate the linear and nonlinear damping parameters in a lightly damped multidegree of freedom system which allows the system to be decomposed into a set of single degree of freedom nonlinear ... -
A deeper understanding of intestinal organoid metabolism revealed by combining fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) and extracellular flux analyses.
(2020)Stem cells and the niche in which they reside feature a complex microenvironment with tightly regulated homeostasis, cell-cell interactions and dynamic regulation of metabolism. A significant number of organoid models has ... -
Defining the impaction frequency and threshold force required for femoral impaction grafting in revision hip arthroplasty. A human cadaveric mechanical study.
(2011)BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The two most common complications of femoral impaction bone grafting are femoral fracture and massive implant subsidence. We investigated fracture forces and implant subsidence rates in embalmed ... -
Deformation simulation of cells seeded on a collagen-GAG scaffold in a flow perfusion bioreactor using a sequential 3D CFD-elastostatics model.
(2009)Tissue-engineered bone shows promise in meeting the huge demand for bone grafts caused by up to 4 million bone replacement procedures per year, worldwide. State-of-the-art bone tissue engineering strategies use flow perfusion ... -
Density Optimisation & In-Situ Microstructure Decomposition of As-Built Selective Laser Melted Ti-6Al-4V
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Discipline of Mechanical & Manuf. Eng, 2022)Additive manufacturing of titanium provides many advantages over traditional methodologies such as the ability to produce complex parts at no additional cost. One such AM method, selective laser melting (SLM) is a powder ... -
The deposition of pure aluminium via cold spray for the corrosion protection of steel
(2016)In this paper, development and characterization of cold sprayed protective pure Al coatings on a non regular steel surface will be proposed. The research is oriented to the optimization of the deposition ... -
Design and development of a pre-clinical test for cemented femoral hip replacements
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, 2000)Current state of the art testing methods do not allow implant performance to be assessed relative to known failure modes, prior to clinical use. Even clinically, it can take up to 5 years before implant performance can be ... -
Design and optimisation of focused infrared heating devices

Design of a Kelvin cell acoustic metamaterial
(2020)Advancements in 3D print technology now allow the printing of structured acoustic absorptive materials at appropriate microscopic scales and sample sizes. Optimisation of parameter sets associated with a Kelvin Cell structure ... -
Design Projects in Undergraduate Engineering
(2010)Design has been extensively embedded within the undergraduate Engineering programmes through a restructuring of the curriculum to increase small group, project based learning. Complementing this strategy, a selection of ... -
Design Thinking as an Outreach Activity for Female Students
