Wage- and profit-led regimes under modern finance: an exploration
(Edward Elgar Publishing, 2017-07-01)This paper generalizes the principle of effective demand to incorporate banking and finance as two distinct sectors. The traditional commercial banking sector is regulated and the modern shadow banking sector is mostly an ... -
“Waiting for Science to Catch up with Practice”: an examination of 10-year YouTube trends in discussions of chronic cerebral spinal venous insufficiency treatment for multiple sclerosis
(Taylor & Francis, 2019-03-26)Objective: The objective of this longitudinal study examined, first, whether people with multiple sclerosis who previously advocated for angioplasty to treat chronic cerebral spinal venous insufficiency (CCSVI) through ... -
Waiving and Exercising Rights in the Theory of Social Situations
(National University of Ireland, Galway, 2005)The present paper analyses different formulations of individual rights within a traditional social choice-theoretic framework and a game form framework. It proposes a theory of social situations as a basis for some new ... -
Walk a mile in my shoes! An autoethnographical perspective of urban walkability in Galway
(SAGE Publications, 2022-02-04)The need to reverse the harmful economic, social and environmental effects of car-dependent cities has intensified as evidence of its costs on health, communities, local economies, and climate change goals becomes more ... -

Was it Author's Rights all the time?: Copyright as a Constitutional Right in Ireland
(Dublin University Law Journal, 2011)If property rights are “the Cinderella of the fundamental rights provisions of the Irish Constitution,” copyright may be its glass slipper, seeking its proper owner. The underlying rationale for copyright in Irish law is ... -
Water analytics and management with real-time linked dataspaces
(Springer, 2017)Due to predictions of water scarcity in the future, governments and public administrations are increasingly looking for innovative solutions to improve water governance and conservation. The problem is exasperated due ... -
Water consumption data
(NUI Galway, 2017-08-16)7.5 minute water usage data obtained over a 6 month trial period for two Waternomics pilot sites. Relates to paper under review at the AGU Journal of Water Resources Research titled: Flow signature analysis of water ... -
Watermite parasitism of corixidae: infection parameters, larval mite growth, competitive interaction and host response
(JSTOR, 1991-03-01)Parasitism of four corixid species in Lough Corrib, western Ireland, by larval water-mites of the genera Hydrachna and Eylais was investigated. Differences in abundances of mite species were noted in respect of host species ... -
Waternomics: A cross-site data collection to support the development of a water information platform
(Elsevier, 2015-09-01)In Europe, 20 to 40% of water is being wasted due to poor infrastructure, consumer negligence and lack of proper resource management. Effective and efficient management of water resources requires a holistic approach ... -
The wave excitation forces on a truncated vertical cylinder in water of infinite depth
(2013)When carrying out any numerical modelling it is useful to have an analytical approximation available to provide a check on the accuracy of the numerical results and to give insight into the underlying physics of the system. ... -
A wave near the edge of a circular disk
(2008)It is shown that in the Love-Kirchhoff plate theory, an edge wave can travel in a circular thin disk made of an isotropic elastic material. This disk edge wave turns out to be faster than the classic flexural acoustic wave ... -
Wave-structure interaction of offshore wave energy converters
(2013-11-04)With the continuing rise in oil prices and greater concern for the damage to the atmosphere, the world is continually looking for a cleaner and more sustainable form of energy. Ocean wave energy as a renewable source of ... -
Wave-turbulence scaling in the ocean mixed layer
(Copernicus GmbH, 2013-07-08)Microstructure measurements were collected using an autonomous freely rising profiler under a variety of different atmospheric forcing and sea states in the open ocean. Here, profiles of turbulent kinetic energy dissipation ... -
Wavelength dependence of femtosecond laser ablation of thin gold films
(2014-05-26)The demand for efficient laser processing of materials is as strong as ever and this requires a deep understanding of the fundamental laser-material interactions. There has been a recent upsurge in the number of studies ... -
Wavelet and multitaper coherence methods for assessing the elastic thickness of the irish atlantic margin
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2004-11-01)There have been some inconsistencies in estimates of the effective elastic thickness of the continental lithosphere Te based upon admittance or coherence relationships between gravity and topography. This paper compares ... -
Waves and vibrations in a solid of second grade
(World Scientific, 2006)We study the viscoelastic second grade solid, for which the constitutive equation consists in the sum of a purely elastic part and a viscoelastic part; this latter part is specified by two microstructural coefficients ...
