3-dimensional solder paste inspection using Structured Light techniques
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Electronic & Electrical Engineering, 2002)Re-modelling of three-dimensional solder paste constructed from optical profilometry has gathered ever-increasing attention in different inspection and process control sectors of the electronics Printed Circuit Board ... -
3D bioprinting of cartilage-mimetic implants for biological joint resurfacing
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Discipline of Mechanical & Manuf. Eng, 2020)A major challenge in the field of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine is the development of effective therapies for treating large cartilage or osteochondral defects and ultimately regenerating whole osteoarthritic ... -
3D Bioprinting of Developmentally Inspired Templates for Bone and Joint Regeneration
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Discipline of Mechanical & Manuf. Eng, 2018)There is an urgent need to develop alternatives to synthetic joint prosthesis to promote the regeneration of diseased osteoarthritic joints. Cell based therapies have shown promise for repairing cartilage and bone; however, ... -
3D Modelling Tool to Optimise Advanced Plasmonic Luminescent Solar Devices for Building Integrated Photovoltaic Applications
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Disc of Civil Structural & Environmental Eng, 2019)This research concentrates on modelling and optimisation of a static building integrated PV (BIPV) component in which both direct and diffuse solar radiation are harvested through luminescent solar (LS) devices. Plasmonic ... -
A biomechanical analysis of the trunk and spine during paediatric cerebral palsy gait
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, 2017)Movement pathologies in the lower limbs of children with cerebral palsy are well established in the literature. However, movement pathologies of the upper body, in particular the trunk, are less well defined. Mechanical ... -
A Bridgman Furnace Front Tracking Model
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, 2015)The Bridgman furnace is widely used in industry and research, mainly because it provides a means to directionally solidify materials in a controlled manner, so that the resulting microstructure, and hence material properties, ... -
A continuous flow arsenic removal system using solar oxidation
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Civil, Structural and Environmental Engineering, 2012)It is estimated that over 100 million people worldwide are drinking water contaminated with arsenic. The World Health Organisation (WHO) set the maximum contaminant level for arsenic at 10μg/l in 1996 as it is not only ... -
A forward advancing wave expansion method for numerical solution of large-scale sound propagation problems
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, 2007)The study of atmospheric somid propagation has become an important subject since noise polhition problems emerged as a highly relevant matter in several areas such as sociology, economics, regulations and standards. Modelling ... -
A framework for the Efficiency Evaluation of Ireland's Electricity Power System using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA)
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Civil, Structural and Environmental Engineering, 2013)The complex modem Electricity Power System (EPS) is the most significant pervasive infrastructure underpinning the social, technological, and economic development of modem economies The context in which modern EPSs operate ... -
A generalized method for quantification of cognitive radio benefits within wireless systems
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Electronic & Electrical Engineering, 2009)For most of the history of wireless communications, the primary enabler of enhanced radio communications capability and utility has been continual improvement in the implementing technology and the corresponding ability ... -
A methodology for assessing the load capacity of cantilevered stone stairs
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Civil, Structural and Environmental Engineering, 2012)Cantilevered stone stairs were widely constructed from the 17th to the 20th century. Thousands of these stairs were built in Ireland and across Europe during this period and they have proven to be very robust. However, the ... -
A new approach to driving cycle development and its applications
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Civil, Structural and Environmental Engineering, 2013)Driving cycles describe the general driving pattern of a vehicle in a road network, and are usually represented by speed-time profiles of equal spacing. They are used to approximate and represent driving conditions as an ... -
A new technique for vortex methods in computational fluid dynamics
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, 2002)The random vortex method is a Lagrangian technique which involves solving the stream function-vorticity formulation of the Navier-Stokes equations. Discrete vortex particles, which are created at the surface to satisfy ... -
A practical framework for strategic noise mapping
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, 2008)Environmental noise is a major form of pollution and it is estimated that at least one quarter of the population of the EU suffer a reduced quality of life due to exposure to noise. To address the problem the European Union ... -
A quasi three dimensional numerical model for terrain propagation
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Electronic & Electrical Engineering, 2002)Numerical modeling techniques provide a powerful tool for the optimization of modern land mobile radio communications systems. Mathematically, propagation over terrain constitutes a three-dimensional vector field problem ...
