Parabolic and equal-rank subroot systems with applications to symmetric spaces and flag manifolds
(2016-06-20)Using the algebraic structure of subroot systems in the root system of a complex simple Lie algebra g, we prove a generalization for compact homogeneous spaces with positive Euler characteristic of the 'strange formula' ... -
A paradigm framework for social work theory for early 21st century practice
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2019-03-01)This article explores whether paradigms for social work that helped structure and focus social work theory in the late 20th century can continue to inform social work theorising in the present day. The question is considered ... -
The Paradox of "Structured" Methods for Software Requirements Management: A Case Study of an E-Government Development Project
(2009)This paper outlines the alternative perspectives of "rationalism" and "improvisation" within information systems development, and describes the major shortcomings of each. It then discusses how these shortcomings ... -
The paradox of product portfolio ambidexterity: Determinants and consequences
(NUI Galway, 2021-04-18)Competence ambidexterity and innovation ambidexterity play crucial roles in organisations’ strategic new product innovation activities and their long-term success. Ambidexterity is especially relevant in high technology ... -
A Paradoxical Perspective on Contradictions in Agile Software Development
(2008)An ongoing debate on agile methods focuses on the contradictions in software development, especially responding to change vs. following a plan, and people vs. processes. Unlike the ¿either-or¿ perspective adopted in the ... -
Parallel astronomical data processing with python: recipes for multicore machines

Parallel decadal variability of inferred water temperatures for northern and southern hemisphere intermediate water masses
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014-02-20)We use a novel proxy (growth rates of long-lived deep water fish, orange roughy) to reconstruct inferred water temperatures of intermediate water masses in both Northern and Southern Hemispheres since the mid-1800s. The ... -

Paralympic tandem cycling and hand-cycling: Computational and wind tunnel analysis of aerodynamic performance
(NUI Galway, 2019-03-27)There are several key resistive forces affecting the speed of cyclists; namely aerodynamic resistance, gravity induced by road gradients, rolling resistance, and drive train and wheel bearing resistances. Of these, in most ... -
Parameter search algorithms for microwave radar-based breast imaging: focal quality metrics as fitness functions
(MDPI AG, 2017-12-06)Inaccurate estimation of average dielectric properties can have a tangible impact on microwave radar-based breast images. Despite this, recent patient imaging studies have used a fixed estimate although this is known to ... -
Parameterization of turbulence models using 3DVAR data
(City University of New York, 2014-01-08)In this research the 3DVAR data assimilation scheme is implemented in the numerical model DIVAST in order to optimize the performance of the numerical model by selecting an appropriate turbulence scheme and tuning its ... -
Parameterizing air-sea gas transfer velocity with dissipation
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2017-04-01)The air-sea gas transfer velocity k is frequently estimated as an empirical function of wind speed. However, it is widely recognized that k depends on processes other than wind speed alone. The small-eddy model, which ... -
