Observations of Surface Acoustic Wave Strain and Resistive Strain Measurements on Broaching Tools for Process Monitoring
(2014)The monitoring of high end material removal processes continues to develop to greater levels of technical sophistication which in turn enable greater levels of insight into the process phenomena occurring at the tool-chip ... -
On the assessment of a VOF based compressive interface capturing scheme for the analysis of bubble impact on and bounce from a flat horizontal surface
(2014)The process of free rise, collision on and bounce from a solid horizontal surface for a single isolated bubble is investigated by numerical simulations based on the Volume of Fluid method (VOF). The volume fraction ... -
On-site energy generation in the manufacturing industry: effects on the variability of the net electricity demand
(2020)Local distribution system operators (DSOs) are currently dealing with the unpredictability and high variability of energy production coming from an increasing number of distributed variable renewable energy (VRE) systems. ... -
On-site renewable electricity production and self consumption for manufacturing industry in Ireland: Sensitivity to techno-economic conditions
(2019)The technical and economic feasibility of on-site renewable energy production from solar and wind for a specific manufacturing plant in Ireland is assessed. The energy load of the plant during a typical year is identified ... -
Open Design and the Reprap Project
(2010)This paper details the investigation of an emerging trend within technology development: `open design?. Improvements in communications and computing technology have made collaboration over geographically vast distances ... -
Optimization and evaluation of oxygen-plasma-modified, aligned, poly (Є-caprolactone) and silk fibroin nanofibrous scaffold for corneal stromal regeneration
(2023)The shortage of human donor corneas for transplantation necessitates the exploration of tissue engineering approaches to develop corneal substitutes. However, these substitutes must possess the necessary strength, transparency, ... -
Optimum Parameters for Freeze-Drying Decellularized Arterial Scaffolds
(2013)Decellularized arterial scaffolds have achieved success in advancing toward clinical use as vascular grafts. However, concerns remain regarding long-term preservation and sterilization of these scaffolds. Freeze drying ... -
Organic Electrochemical Transistors (OECTs) Toward Flexible and Wearable Bioelectronics
(2020)Organic electronics have emerged as a fascinating area of research and technology in the past two decades and are anticipated to replace classic inorganic semiconductors in many applications. Research on organic light-emitting ... -
Organic-based flexible thermoelectric generators: From materials to devices
(2022)There is a rapidly growing demand for self-powered technologies in wearable electronic devices that can be integrated with the human body to accomplish various functions. Flexible thermoelectric generators produce electricity ... -
ORIENTATION ESTIMATION USING KALMAN FILTERS WITH MULTIPLE SENSORS
(2015)The ability to repeatedly and accurately position robotic end-effectors is a key requirement for modern industrial automation. Parallel developments in domestic and service robotics are opening up exciting possibilities ... -
Osteoarthritis-associated basic calcium phosphate crystals alter immune cell metabolism and promote M1 macrophage polarization
(2019)Objective: A number of studies have demonstrated that molecules called ‘alarmins’ or danger-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), contribute to inflammatory processes in the OA joint. Metabolic reprog-ramming of immune ... -
An overview of current techniques for ocular toxicity testing.
(2015)Abstract Given the hazardous nature of many materials and substances, ocular toxicity testing is required to evaluate the dangers associated with these substances after their exposure to the eye. Historically, animal tests ... -
Oxygen tension differentially regulates the functional properties of cartilaginous tissues engineered from infrapatellar fat pad derived MSCs and articular chondrocytes.
(2010)Background For current tissue engineering or regenerative medicine strategies, chondrocyte (CC)- or mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-seeded constructs are typically cultured in normoxic conditions (20% oxygen). However, within ... -
Part 1: scaffolds and surfaces.
(Elsevier, 2008)Every day thousands of clinical procedures are performed to replace or repair tissues in the human body that have been damaged through disease or trauma. Current therapies are focused on the replacement of the damaged ... -
