Accurate Bayesian prediction of cardiovascular-related mortality using ambulatory blood pressure measurements
(Springer Cham, 2017-05-30)Hypertension is the leading cause of cardiovascular-related mortality (CVRM), affecting approximately 1 billion people worldwide. To enable patients at significant risk of CVRM to be treated appropriately, it is essential ... -
Accurate dielectric characterisation of biological tissues in the microwave range using the open-ended coaxial probe technique
(NUI Galway, 2019-12-19)Accurate knowledge of the dielectric properties of biological tissue samples is fundamental in the design of novel electromagnetic-based medical devices. Biological tissue samples are typically characterised dielectrically ... -
Accurate patient dosimetry in modern computed tomography systems
(NUI Galway, 2020-10-21)The most common parameter used to estimate and minimise patient dose in computed tomography (CT) is the CT dose index (CTDI). The CTDI is the average absorbed dose from a series of contiguous irradiations along the long ... -
Accurate, traceable, and verifiable time synchronization for world financial markets
(National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), 2016-10-01)The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), through a collaboration with Perseus, a global provider of telecommunication services, is providing accurate, traceable, and verifiable time synchronization to ... -
Acetic acid and pepsin result in high yield, high purity and low macrophage response collagen for biomedical applications
(IOP Publishing, 2017-08-02)Collagen based devices are frequently associated with foreign body response. Although several pre(e.g. species, state of animal, tissue) and post-(e.g. cross-linking, scaffold architecture) extraction method factors have ... -
Achieving consensus in developing a national set of child well-being indicators.
(Springer, 2007-09)This paper provides an account of the methodology used to gain consensus around the development of a national set of child well-being indicators in the Republic of Ireland. This development was identified as a key objective ... -
Achieving gender equality through feminist social movements: A case study of Ni Una Menos (Not One Less)
(School of Political Science and Sociology, University of Galway, 2023)The Ni Una Menos (Not One Less) Movement emerged as a direct response to the alarming increase of femicide in Argentina. This paper analyses how the Ni Una Menos movement mobilises various resources for gender equality. ... -
Achieving nearly zero-energy buildings - A lifecycle assessment approach to retrofitting buildings
(NUI Galway, 2015-04-23)It is now widely recognised in the academic and business worlds that energy efficiency in buildings provides significant environmental and economic opportunities, but also challenges. The building sector offers considerable ... -
Achieving sustainability transitions in residential energy use across Europe: The importance of problem framings
(Elsevier, 2019-08-15)Reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the residential sector is central to European energy policy. However, the speed and scale of sustainable energy transitions need to accelerate. There is a growing consensus that meeting ... -

Acoustic waves at the interface of a pre-stressed incompressible elastic solid and a viscous fluid
(Elsevier, 2006-11-10)We analyse the influence of pre-stress on the propagation of interfacial waves along the boundary of an incompressible hyperelastic half-space that is in contact with a viscous fluid extending to infinity in the adjoining ... -
Acousto-elasticity of transversely isotropic incompressible soft tissues: Characterization of skeletal striated muscle
(IOP Publishing, 2021-07-13)Using shear wave elastography, we measure the changes in the wave speed with the stress produced by a striated muscle during isometric voluntary contraction. To isolate the behaviour of an individual muscle from complementary ... -
