A 1000-year reconstruction of summer precipitation from Ireland: Calibration of a peat-based palaeoclimate record
(2012)Calibration of proxy climate records is well-established for annually resolved proxies such as tree rings, but it has not been attempted for non-annually resolved proxies such as those from peatland surface wetness records. ... -
Ab initio study of electron transport in dry poly(G)-poly(C) A-DNA strands
(2010)The bias-dependent transport properties of short poly (G)-poly(C) A-DNA strands attached to Au electrodes are investigated with first-principles electronic-transport methods. By using the nonequilibrium Green's function ... -
Acoustic Features in Dialogue Dominate Accurate Personality Trait Classification
(2020)We report on experiments in identifying personality traits from the dialogue of participants in the MULTISIMO corpus. Experiments used audio and linguistic features from participants’ speech and transcripts, ... -
Acoustic particle velocity measurement by ultra-light membrane and its applications in acoustic holography
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Mechanical & Manufacturing Engineering, 2007)Acoustic holography is a non-destructive method used to determine the spatial propagation of acoustical waves. Conventionally, the acoustic holography measures the acoustic pressure. Until recently, a very limited number ... -
Activation of stress-related signalling pathway in human cells upon SiO2 nanoparticles exposure as an early indicator of cytotoxicity
(2011)Background: Nanomaterials such as SiO2 nanoparticles (SiO2NP) are finding increasing applications in the biomedical and biotechnological fields such as disease diagnostics, imaging, drug delivery, food, cosmetics and ... -
An Active Data Representation of Videos for Automatic Scoring of Oral Presentation Delivery Skills and Feedback Generation
(2020-01-28)Public speaking is an important skill, the acquisition of which requires dedicated and time consuming training. In recent years, researchers have started to investigate automatic methods to support public speaking skills ... -
Addressing Medication Management Challenges for Older People with Multimorbidities: A Multi-Stakeholder Approach
(ACM, 2017)Multimorbidity, the presence of two or more chronic conditions, places a significant burden on health systems globally. People managing multiple chronic conditions face burdensome and complex treatment plans. Polypharmacy, the ... -
Advanced Separation Processes for Recovery of Critical Raw Materials From Renewable and Waste Resources
(Elsevier, 2019)Driven by the fact that global mineral reserves are constantly depleting, systematic mandates and policies have been initiated to augment the recovery of essential resources, which have been categorised as critical raw ... -
An agronomic assessment of greenhouse gas emissions from major cereal crops
(2012)Agricultural greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions contribute approximately 12% to total global anthropogenic GHG emissions. Cereals (rice, wheat, and maize) are the largest source of human calories, and it is estimated that world ... -
An Analysis of Emerging Ethical and Human Rights Issues in the Harvesting of Data from Social Media During Emergency Response to Natural Hazards
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Religions,Theology & Ecumenics. Irish School of Ecumenics, 2018)This research investigates the ethical and human rights implications of social media powered emergency management information systems that harvest and process data from social media streams in order to produce actionable ... -
Analysis of the Potential of DynaFlexPro as a Modeling Software by its Application in the Roll Stability of Heavy-Duty Elliptical Tankers using Trammel Pendulum to Simulate Fluid Sloshing
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Mechanical & Manufacturing Engineering, INSA Lyon, 2007)One of the most common ways for commercial vehicles to loose their stability is by rollover. Partially filled heavy-duty tankers manoeuvring constant radius turns or lane change maneuvers have lower rollover threshold than ... -
Analysis of the rough contact in axisymmetric upsetting
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Mechanical & Manufacturing Engineering, 2007)Characterization of surface roughness is important in the frictional behavior of two contact surfaces. In general, it has been found that friction increases with average roughness. The prediction of friction and stress/ ... -
Analytic Besov spaces and Hardy-type inequalities in tube domains over symmetric cones
(2010)We give various equivalent formulations to the (partially) open problem about Lp-boundedness of Bergman projections in tubes over cones. Namely, we show that such boundedness is equivalent to the duality identity between ... -
Antiferromagnetic single-layer spin-orbit torque oscillators
(2019)We show how a charge current through a single antiferromagnetic layer can excite and control self-oscillations. Sustained oscillations with tunable amplitudes and frequencies are possible in a variety of geometries using ... -
Are field boundary hedgerows the earliest example of a nature-based solution?
(2021)The arrival of the phrase nature-based solutions into the lexicon of academics, planners, managers and policy makers in recent years has sparked a heated debate as to the effectiveness of using nature as a viable solution ...
