    • Validated CFD study of indoor environmental conditions in a highly-glazed, cross-ventilated meeting room 

      Hajdukiewicz, Magdalena; Geron, M; Keane, MM (2013)
      This paper investigates the environmental conditions inside a highly-glazed cross-ventilated meeting room. A 3D computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model of an indoor environment is developed with the support of the field ...
    • Viscoelastic creep in reinforced glulam 

      O'Ceallaigh, Conan; Sikora, Karol; McPolin, Daniel; Harte, Annette M. (TU Verlag Wien, 2016-08-22)
      The mechanical and physical properties of softwood timber can vary considerably as a result of the age and rate of growth of the tree and other environmental factors which affect the wood cell density and strength [1]. ...
    • Viscoelastic creep of FRP reinforced glulam 

      O’Ceallaigh, Conan; Sikora, Karol; McPolin, Daniel; Harte, Annette M. (NUI Galway, 2016-08-29)
      The reinforcement of timber using fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) rods or plates is widely accepted as an effective method of increasing the strength and stiffness of members, while at the same time reducing the variability ...
    • Vortex drop shaft structures: state-of-the-art and future trends 

      Mulligan, Sean; Plant, Joss; Nash, Stephen; Clifford, Eoghan (International Association for Hydro-Environment Engineering and Research (IAHR), 2019-09-01)
      Vortex drop shaft structures have played a critical role in hydraulic engineering; from one of their first applications in hydroelectric energy dissipation in the 1940s, to numerous contemporary installations throughout modern ...
