20:20 Hindsight. Retrofitting research relevance to the University Art Collections at Trinity College Dublin.
(2010)This paper considers the role of university art collections as meaningful contributors to the achievement of institutional goals relating to excellence in research, teaching and outreach. The discussion takes as its focus ... -
Acoustic and Temporal Analysis of Speech: A Potential Biomarker for Schizophrenia
(2010)Currently, there are no established objective biomarkers for the diagnosis or monitoring of schizophrenia. It has been previously reported that there are notable qualitative differences in the speech of schizophrenics. The ... -
The Acoustic Features of Inhalation can be Used to Quantify Aerosol Delivery from a Diskus (TM) Dry Powder Inhaler
(2014)Purpose Some patients are unable to generate the peak inspiratory flow rate (PIFR) necessary to de-agglomerate drug particles from dry powder inhalers (DPIs). In this study we tested the hypothesis that the acoustic ... -
Acquisition of Human EEG Data during linear Self-Motion on a Stewart Platform
(IEEE, 2009)The present study investigated the feasibility of acquiring electroencephalography (EEG) data during self-motion in human subjects. Subjects performed a visual oddball task ? designed to evoke a P3 event-related potential ... -
Activation in Ireland: An Evaluation of the National Employment Action Plan
(ESRI, 13/05/2011)Since early 2008 there has been a severe deterioration in the Irish economy, which has had major knock-on implications for the labour market. Unemployment increased from around 4.5 per cent at the end of 2007 to over ... -
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 ... -
Adaptive noncontact gesture-based system for augmentative communication
(IEEE, 1999)An adaptive noncontact gesture-based system for augmentative communication is described. The system detects movement of any anatomical site through the analysis of reflected speckle. This movement is converted into ... -
Adding Recursion to Dpi. (Extended Abstract)
(Electronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science, 2006)Dpi is a distributed version of the pi-calculus, in which processes are explicitly located, and a migration construct may be used for moving between locations. We argue that adding a recursion operator to the language ... -
Adsorption of common solvent molecules on graphene and MoS2 from first-principles
(2018)Solvents are an essential element in the production and processing of two-dimensional (2D) materials. For example, the liquid-phase exfoliation of layered materials requires a solvent to prevent the resulting monolayers ... -
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 ... -
Advances in the synthesis of ZnO nanomaterials for varistor devices
(2013)ZnO based varistors are widely used for overvoltage protection in many electrical and electronic circuits, at voltages ranging from a few to over a million volts. By careful control of the microstructure, through ... -
Age and gender differences in emotion recognition
(2019)Background: Existing literature suggests that age affects recognition of affective facial expressions. Eye-tracking studies highlighted that age-related differences in recognition of emotions could be explained by different ... -
Age-Related Sexual Dimorphism in Temporal Discrimination and in Adult-Onset Dystonia Suggests GABAergic Mechanisms.
(2015)BACKGROUND: Adult-onset isolated focal dystonia (AOIFD) presenting in early adult life is more frequent in men, whereas in middle age it is female predominant. Temporal discrimination, an endophenotype of adult-onset ... -
All optical timing extraction with frequency division using a twin section laser diode.
(1993)All-optical timing extraction from a coded line signal with division of the extracted clock frequency is demonstrated using a single twin-section self-pulsating laser diode. Either the bit-rate clock or a submultiple ... -
All optical, high contrast absorptive modulation in an asymmetric Fabry-Perot etalon
(American Institute of Physics, 1991)We report a 27:l switching contrast ratio with 2.5 mW of power in an asymmetric Fabry- Perot Ctalon. The modulation is achieved by optical saturation of the excitonic absorption profile of a 95 A GaAs/AlGaAs multiple ... -
All-optical clock distribution with synchronous frequency division and multiplication
(1992)A master optical clock from a mode locked laser is distributed to two slave twin section lasers. One slave laser divides the optical modulation frequency by 2, the other slave laser multiplies the frequency by 2. It is ... -
All-optical synchronization and frequency division of mode-locked pulses
(1992)We report all-optical synchronization and frequency division of mode-locked input signals, using a selfpulsating laser diode. The performance of mode-locked and sinusoidal input signals are compared. Synchronization ...
