Supporting global collaboration teams through innovative Web 2.0 technologies.
(Fraunhofer-Verlag, 2011)
Enhanced collaboration among multicultural European countries is necessary for effective enterprise development and innovation. The current climate of an increasingly competitive global economy provides opportunities to ...
Using Wikis to facilitate team work: German and Irish students' perspectives
(All Ireland Society for Higher Education (AISHE), 2011)
Enhanced collaboration among multicultural European countries is necessary for effective
enterprise development and innovation. The current climate of an increasingly competitive
global economy provides opportunities to ...
Micromechanical finite element modelling of thermo-mechanical fatigue for P91 steels,
(Elsevier, 2016-01-21)
In this paper, the cyclic plasticity and fatigue crack initiation behaviour of a tempered martensitic ferritic steel under thermo-mechanical fatigue conditions is examined by means of micromechanical finite element modelling. ...
Impact of biochar addition to soil on greenhouse gas emissions following pig manure application
(2013)
The application of biochar produced from wood and crop residues, such as sawdust, straw, sugar bagasse and rice hulls, to highly weathered soils under tropical conditions has been shown to influence soil greenhouse gas ...
A novel method to rapidly assess the suitability of water treatment residual and crusted concrete for the mitigation of point and nonpoint source nutrient pollution
(Elsevier, 2019-07-02)
Freshwater ecosystems worldwide are at risk of becoming degraded as a result of excessive inputs of phosphorus (P) associated with terrestrial activities. This study describes a novel methodology to rapidly assess the ...
A Multiaxial Fatigue Damage Model for Fibre Reinforced Polymer Composites
(Elsevier (Scienc Direct), 2013)
A multiaxial fatigue damage model for fibre reinforced polymercomposite materials is presented. The model combines (i) fatigue-induced fibre strength and modulus degradation, (ii) irrecoverable cyclic strain effects and ...
Single Cyclized Molecule Structure from RAFT Homopolymerization of Multi-vinyl Monomers
(2012)
We explore a kinetically controlled strategy to suppress the gelation in the homopolymerization of multi-vinyl monomers (MVMs) via RAFT polymerization. We report the generation of 3D single cyclized polymer structures from ...
SMART MOVE - a smartphone-based intervention to promote physical activity in primary care: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial
(BioMed Central, 2013-05-29)
Background: Sedentary lifestyles are now becoming a major concern for governments of developed and developing countries with physical inactivity related to increased all-cause mortality, lower quality of life, and increased ...
Haemodynamic performance of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) during recovery from total hip arthroplasty
(2013-03-05)
Background: Patients post total hip arthroplasty (THA) remain at high risk of developing Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) during the recovery period following surgery despite the availability of effective pharmacological and ...
Human centred design considerations for connected health devices for the older adult
(MDPI, 2014-06-04)
Connected health devices are generally
designed for unsupervised use, by
non-healthcare professionals, facilitating independent control of the
individuals own healthcare. Older adults are major users of such devices ...
