Damping Ratio Estimation for a Slender Modular Building from Full Scale Ambient Response Monitoring
(2023)The application of modular construction in tall slender structures is a relatively novel concept. Modular buildings with heights exceeding 130m have been successfully constructed by combining reinforced concrete cores with ... -
Data Collection and Analysis in a Pan-European Electric Vehicle Fleet
(2013)Electric vehicles are expected to replace a significant portion of existing light vehicle fleets around the developed world over the coming decades. The technology offers several benefits both on environmental and user ... -
Dealing with latency effects in travel time prediction on motorways
(2020)Real-time traffic information is now a crucial part of operating a road network. The quality, accuracy and reliability of such information is critical to the road operators and users. Real-time travel time prediction methods ... -
Defining critical parameters in a luminescent downshifting layer for PV enhancement
(2021)This paper presents the study and evaluation of luminescent down shifting (LDS) layers doped with organic dyes and their compatibility with different types of solar cells. In this study commercial dyes in the Lumogen-F ... -
Demand-side characterisation of the smart city for energy modelling.
(2014)This paper presents a new methodology for characterising the energy performance of buildings suitable for city-scale, top-down energy modelling. Building properties that have the greatest impact on simulated energy performance ... -
Demonstrating Learning in Action in a Water and Energy Smart Specialisation Cluster
(2018)The Energy and Water sectors crave innovation. The sectors also exhibit clusters of firms which interact in developing innovations. We explore how demonstrating learning in a cluster facilitates innovation. The paper is ... -
Design and Characterization of a Roof-Mounted Compound Parabolic Concentrator
(2021)This paper presents the design, fabrication and performance of a roof mounted compound parabolic concentrators (CPC) for electricity generation. A truncated Asymmetric Compound Parabolic Concentrator with concentration ... -
Design and Characterization of a Roof-Mounted Compound Parabolic Concentrator with Phase Change Material
(2018)This paper presents the design, fabrication and performance of a roof mounted compound parabolic concentrators (CPC) with and without Phase Change Material (PCM) for electricity generation. A truncated Asymmetric ... -
Design and manufacture of surface acoustic wave sensors for real-time weigh-in-motion.
(IEEE, 2005)This paper presents the design and manufacture of surface acoustic wave (SAW) strain sensors which can be produced in a university environment. These sensors can be interrogated wirelessly and operated without a power ... -
Design approach for improving rampart roads
(2008)Approximately 17% of the land surface of Ireland is covered with peat. However, some counties have significantly higher values, particularly in the midlands and western counties. County Leitrim, for instance, has peat ... -
Design of an active compliant liquid column damper by LQR and wavelet linear quadratic regulator control strategies
(2018)A new active tuned liquid column damper is developed for seismic vibration control of structures by employing the configuration of the compliant liquid column damper (CLCD). This control system is referred to as the active ... -
Design of feeder route network using combined genetic algorithm and specialised repair heuristic
(National Center for Transit Research (NCTR), 2007)In metropolitan cities an efficient integrated public transportation system is unavoidable in order to restrict unsustainable growth of private and intermediate transport modes. Well designed feeder routes and ... -
Design of quality, durable mortar for the conservation of historic masonry fabrics
(Thomas Telford, London, 2005)The last twenty years have shown a steady increase in the number of conservation works to historic structures carried out in Ireland. Much of the repair and maintenance to historic masonry buildings have required pointing, ... -
