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 ...
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 ...
Experimental and numerical characterisation of the cyclic thermo-mechanical behaviour of a high temperature forming tool alloy
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2010-10-05)
This paper describes high temperature cyclic and creep relaxation testing and modeling of a high nickel-chromium material (XN40F) for application to the life prediction of superplastic forming (SPF) tools. An experimental ...
An analysis of third level interdisciplinary student learning outcomes using Wiki technology tools– an evaluation of Germany and Ireland University students
(ILTA Irish Learning Technology Association, 2010-05-20)
Enhanced collaboration among multicultural European countries is necessary for effective enterprise development and innovation. The current climate of an increasingly challenging competitive global economy provides ...
Overview of the regulation of medical devices and drugs in the European Union and the United States
(SAGE Publications, 2013-08-06)
This article provides an overview of the regulation of medical devices and drugs in the European Union and the US. It is important for all stakeholders involved in bringing a medical device or drugs to market to have an ...
Towards holistic goal centered performance management in software development: lessons from a best practice analysis
(SciKA, 2015)
There are strong motivating factors for more effective performance measurement practices in software development. Astute practices in this domain are lauded to improve efficiency and effectiveness. However previous studies ...
Effect of fast pyrolysis conditions on biomass solid residues at high temperatures
(Elsevier, 2015-12-03)
Fast pyrolysis of wood and straw was conducted in a drop tube furnace (DTF) and compared with corresponding data from a wire mesh reactor (WMR) to study the influence of temperature (1000–1400)°C, biomass origin (pinewood, ...
Influence of fast pyrolysis conditions on yield and structural transformation of biomass chars
(Elsevier, 2015-09-19)
Fast pyrolysis of biomass (wood, straw, rice husk) and its major components (cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin) was conducted in a wire mesh reactor. The aim of this study was to understand the influence of temperature ...
Incompressible moving boundary flows with the finite volume particle method
(Elsevier, 2010-03-24)
Mesh-free methods offer the potential for greatly simplified modeling of flow with moving walls and phase interfaces. The finite volume particle method (FVPM) is a mesh-free technique based on interparticle fluxes which ...
