Classification of a Target Analyte in Solid Mixtures using Principal Component Analysis, Support Vector Machines and Raman Spectroscopy
(2005)
The quantitative analysis of illicit materials using Raman spectroscopy is of widespread interest for law enforcement and healthcare applications. One of the difficulties faced when analysing illicit mixtures is the ...
Supporting systems innovation
(World Scientific Publishing, 2000)
Many researchers and practitioners contend that organisations should respond to changing market need and create competitive advantage through innovation and creativity. Each year, organisations expend significant resources ...
Influence of seasonal circulation on flushing of the Irish Sea
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2009-12-16)
We applied a three-dimensional general ocean and coastal circulation model to the Irish Sea in order to determine water renewal time scales in the region. The model was forced with meteorological data for 1995, a year with ...

A combined experimental-numerical approach for generating statistically equivalent fibre distributions for high strength laminated composite materials
(Elsevier, 2009-11-04)
A technique is presented where actual experimental distributions, measured from a high strength carbon fibre composite, are considered in the development of a novel method to generate statistically equivalent fibre ...
Real-Time Fingerprint Analysis & Authentication for Embedded Appliances
(IEEE, 2007-04-10)
A complete fingerprint analysis system is described. The design and architecture of a loadable device driver for a USB fingerprint sensor is described. Image processing filters to enhance the raw image data and to extract ...
Automated sorting of consumer image collections using face and peripheral region image classifiers
(IEEE, 2005)
An evaluation of techniques and recognition technologies for use in an automatic cataloging tool for consumer image collections is presented. A working implementation of an automatic cataloging tool and user search tools ...
Extension of the finite volume particle method to viscous flow
(Elsevier, 2009-03-20)
The finite volume particle method (FVPM) is a mesh-free method for fluid dynamics which allows simple and accurate implementation of boundary conditions and retains the conservation and consistency properties of classical ...
Models of flow-induced loading on blood cells in laminar and turbulent flow, with application to cardiovascular device flow
(Springer, 2007-08)
Viscous shear stress and Reynolds stress are often used to predict hemolysis and thrombosis due to flow-induced stress on blood elements in cardiovascular devices. These macroscopic stresses are distinct from the true ...
