Pneumatic artificial muscles for human-friendly mobile service robots
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Discipline of Mechanical & Manuf. Eng, 2019)Developing robotic systems which can operate in complex, human centred environments is a major challenge, but one which holds the promise of dramatically improving human living standards in several areas including ... -
An asperity deformation model for the sliding cylinder problem : theoretical and experimental investigations
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, 2000)Statistical analysis shows that the main reason for the failure of machines is not breakage but wear of the moving parts resulting from rubbing stress. Although the laws of friction are fairly well substantiated, there are ... -
A study of the role of oil additives in the failure of ball bearings
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, 2000)This thesis examines the influence that extreme pressure oil additives have in the failure of ball bearings. Additives are commonly used in lubricating oils to improve their properties. In recent years some sections of ... -
THEREPI: A therapeutic epicardial reservoir for the treatment of cardiac disease
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Discipline of Mechanical & Manuf. Eng, 2019)The clinical translation of regenerative therapy for the diseased heart, whether in the form of cells, macromolecules or small molecules, is hampered by several factors: the poor retention and short biological half-life ... -
TRPV4-mediates oscillatory fluid shear mechanotransduction in mesenchymal stem cells in part via the primary cilium
(2018)Skeletal homeostasis requires the continued replenishment of the bone forming osteoblast from a mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) population, a process that has been shown to be mechanically regulated. However, the mechanisms ...
