The bottomless care pyramid: a decolonial feminist ethnography of equality, diversity and inclusion initiatives at the University of Galway
(NUI Galway, 2024-03-12)This thesis examines tensions between feminist demands for transformations in higher education and the creation of equality, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) governance structures at an Irish institution. Through a case ... -
Botulinum toxin injection versus topical nitrates for chronic anal fissure- an updated systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2017-11-22)AimChronic anal fissures (CAFs) are frequently encountered in coloproctology clinics. Chemical sphincterotomy with pharmacological agents is recommended as first-line therapy. Topical nitrates (TN) heal CAF effectively but ... -
Boundary behaviour in the Irish Bronze Age: A study of social and ritual practices in the mid-late Bronze Age
(NUI Galway, 2024-04-08)The purpose of this thesis is to gain an insight into how boundaries were understood and utilised in the social and ritual lives of Bronze Age people. Boundaries are known in many forms, from visible physical linear ... -
Boundary value problems for discrete equations
(Elsevier BV, 1997-07-01)Two existence results are presented for second-order discrete boundary value problems. The first result is based on the notion of upper and lower solutions and the second result is based on the discrete Gelfand problem. -
Boundary value problems for general discrete systems on infinite intervals
(Elsevier BV, 1997-04-01)This paper continues the study of boundary value problems for a discrete system which in particular includes the prototype equation x(k + 1) = f(k, x(k)), equations with finite as well as infinite delays, equations of ... -
Boundary value problems of nonsingular type on the semi-infinite interval
(Mathematical Institute, Tohoku University, 1999-01-01)Existence of a positive solution is established for second order boundary value problems on the semi-infinite interval. -
Boundary value problems singular in the solution variable with nonlinear boundary data
(Cambridge University Press (CUP), 1996-10-01)Existence results are established for the equation y '' +f(t, y) = 0, 0 < t < 1. Here f may be singular in y and f is allowed to change sign. Our boundary data include y(0) = y'(1) + ky(1) = 0, k > -1 and y(0) = ... -
Bounds for analytic solutions to integral equations in the complex domain

Bovine kappa-casein gene promoter haplotypes with potential implications for milk protein expression
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2007-05-25)Genetic analysis of the kappa-casein gene (CSN3) promoter regions of 42 cattle representing 9 different breeds revealed that 2 distinct haplotypes (A and B) exist at this locus, differing from each other by single base ... -
A Bpp-based dinuclear ruthenium photocatalyst for visible light-driven oxidation reactions
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019-11-05)A diruthenium dyad molecule consisting of a 2,2-(1H-pyrazole-3,5-diyl)dipyridine (Hbpp) bridging ligand with the formula out-/in-[(bpy)2Ru(bpp)Ru(L)(tpy)]n+ (bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine, tpy = 2,2′:6′,2′′-terpyridine, L = Cl, ... -
Brace response and assessment: computation, experiments and design (BRACED)
(Seismic engineering research infrastructures for European synergies (SERIES) , Project No.: 227887, 2013)The BRACED project investigated the ultimate behaviour of concentrically braced frames(CBFs). The research programme was designed to validate empirical models for theductility capacity of hollow section bracing members and ... -
Bragrinews: um corpus temporal-causal (português-brasileiro) para a agricultura
(University of Minho, 2017-06-28)There has been a recent sharp increase in interest in academia and industry in applying machine learning and artificial intelligence to agricultural problems. Text mining and related natural language processing techniques, ... -
Brain CB2 receptors: Implication for Neuropsychiatric disorders
(2010)Although previously thought of as the peripheral cannabinoid receptor, it is now accepted that the CB2 receptor is expressed in the central nervous system on microglia, astrocytes and subpopulations of neurons. Expression ... -
Brain haemorrhage detection through SVM classification of electrical impedance tomography measurements
(Springer, Cham, 2019-08-28)A brain haemorrhage constitutes a serious medical scenario with a need for rapid, accurate detection to facilitate treatment initiation. Machine learning (ML) techniques applied to such medical diagnostic problems can ... -
Brain haemorrhage detection through SVM classification of impedance measurements
(NUI Galway, 2018-07-17)Machine Learning is becoming increasingly important in interpreting biological signals. In this work, we examine the potential for classification in brain haemorrhage detection. Numerical head and brain models with and ... -
Brain haemorrhage detection using a SVM classifier with electrical impedance tomography measurement frames
(Public Library of Science, 2018-07-12)Brain haemorrhages often require urgent treatment with a consequent need for quick and accurate diagnosis. Therefore, in this study, we investigate Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifiers for detecting brain haemorrhages ... -

Brain oscillatory substrates of visual short-term memory capacity
(Elsevier BV, 2009-11-01)The amount of information that can be stored in visual short-term memory is strictly limited to about four items [1]. Therefore, memory capacity relies not only on the successful retention of relevant information but also ... -
Brain repair for Parkinson's disease: is the answer in the matrix?
(Medknow Publications, 2018-07-13)Two hundred years after James Parkinson first described the cardinal motor symptoms of the disorder that would later bear his name, there is still an irrefutable need for a therapy that targets the underlying pathophysiology ... -
