Quantification of the sensing radius of a coaxial probe for accurate interpretation of heterogeneous tissue dielectric data
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2018-05-31)Accurate tissue dielectric measurements are crucial for the development of electromagnetic diagnostic and therapeutic devices that are designed based on estimates of the dielectric properties of diseased and healthy tissues. ... -
Quantified equilibrium logic and hybrid rules
(Springer, 2007)In the ongoing discussion about combining rules and Ontologies on the Semantic Web a recurring issue is how to combine first-order classical logic with nonmonotonic rule languages. Whereas several modular approaches to de- ... -
Quantifying patient preferences for symptomatic breast clinic referral: a decision analysis study
(BMJ, 2018-05-01)Objectives Decision analysis study that incorporates patient preferences and probability estimates to investigate the impact of women's preferences for referral or an alternative strategy of watchful waiting if faced with ... -
Quantifying phenotype-environment matching in the protected kerry spotted slug (mollusca: gastropoda) using digital photography: exposure to uv radiation determines cryptic colour morphs
(Springer Nature, 2017-07-10)Background: Animal colours and patterns commonly play a role in reducing detection by predators, social signalling or increasing survival in response to some other environmental pressure. Different colour morphs can evolve ... -
Quantifying relationships between video observations of cold-water coral cover and seafloor features in rockall trough, west of ireland
(Inter-Research Science Center, 2009-01-26)Cold-water coral distributions are only partially understood even in the most well-studied areas. This is partly due to the only recent development of appropriate technology, and partly to the high cost and time associated ... -
Quantifying the Effects of Decoupling on Agriculture in Ireland s NUTS 3 Regions
(National University of Ireland, Galway, 2004)In this paper we adapt the CAPRI model to facilitate an analysis of CAP reform on agriculture in Ireland's NUTS 3 regions. We make assumptions about how the Luxembourg Agreement will be implemented in the Member States ... -
Quantifying the effects of the inclusion and segregation of Contracts for Difference in Australian equity markets
(Econjournals.com, 2014)This study examines the effects that Contracts for Difference (CFDs) have had on theAustralian equity market, either as an accelerant for mispricing, or as a source of increased marketfunctionality through the addition of ... -
Quantifying the effects of the inclusion and segregation of Contracts for Difference in Australian equity markets
(2013)This study examines the effects that Contracts for Difference (CFDs) have had on theAustralian equity market, either as an accelerant for mispricing, or as a source of increased marketfunctionality through the addition of ... -
Quantifying the influence of surface water–groundwater interaction on nutrient flux in a lowland karst catchment
(Copernicus GmbH, 2016-06-01)Nutrient contamination of surface waters and groundwaters is an issue of growing importance as the risks associated with agricultural run-off escalate due to increasing demands on global food production. In this study, the ... -
Quantifying the Price of Uncertainty in Bayesian Models
(2013)During the exploratory phase of a typical statistical analysis it is natural to look at the data in order to narrow down the scope of the subsequent steps, mainly by selecting a set of families of candidate models ... -
Quantifying the stress distribution at the Rotokawa Geothermal Field, New Zealand
(New Zealand Geothermal Workshop, 2012)Knowledge of the orientation and magnitude of the principal stresses can be used to model the behavior of faults and fractures, and determine how they may influence fracture hosted permeability in geothermal reservoirs. ... -
Quantitative analysis of azaspiracids in azadinium spinosum cultures
(Springer Nature, 2012-02-26)Azaspiracids (AZAs) are secondary metabolites of Azadinium spinosum that can accumulate in shellfish and cause food poisoning when consumed. We describe here an analytical procedure for the determination of AZAs in cultures ... -
Quantitative analysis of cocaine in solid mixtures using Raman spectroscopy and chemometric methods
(Wiley, 2000)Near-infrared (785 mn) excitation was used to obtain Raman spectra from a series of 33 solid mixtures containing cocaine, caffeine and glucose (9.8-80.6% by weight cocaine), which were then analysed using chemometric ... -

Quantitative Analysis of the Amorphous Phase and Multiple Polymorphs of Model Sulfa-Drugs; Sulfamerazine and Sulfathiazole
(2013-10-30)Polymorphic transformations are known to occur as a result of many factors, one of the most prominent being recrystallisation from different solutions. Though other factors have been known to induce polymorphic change, ... -
Quantitative analysis of weakly bound insulin oligomers in solution using polarized multidimensional fluorescence spectroscopy
(Elsevier, 2020-09-08)Being able to measure the size and distribution of oligomers in solution is a critical issue in the manufacture and stability of insulin and other protein formulations. Measuring oligomers reliably can however be complicated, ... -
A quantitative and qualitative analysis of microbial community development during low-temperature anaerobic digestion of dairy wastewater
(2012-06-25)The objective of this thesis was to link microbial community structure, population dynamics and microbial activity with performance of two different bioreactor configurations during low-temperature anaerobic digestion of ... -
Quantitative geometric description of fracture systems in an andesite lava flow using terrestrial laser scanner data
(Elsevier, 2017-06-03)Permeability hosted in andesitic lava flows is dominantly controlled by fracture systems, with geometries that are often poorly constrained. This paper explores the fracture system geometry of an andesitic lava flow formed ... -
A quantitative microbial risk assessment model for total coliforms and e. coli in surface runoff following application of biosolids to grassland
(Elsevier, 2017-03-06)In Ireland, the land application of biosolids is the preferred option of disposing of municipal sewage waste. Biosolids provide nutrients in the form of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and increases organic matter. It is ...
