A Pleistocene deposit preserved in deep karst at Coolough, County Galway, western Ireland
(John Wiley and Sons, 2020-11-05)
Buried karst features result from a complex interplay between carbonate bedrock and structural geology. The enhancement of carbonate aquifers through this interplay creates hydrogeologically complex subsurface drainage ...
Pyrolysed waste materials show potential for remediation of trichloroethylene-contaminated water.
(Elsevier, 2019-12-17)
Trichloroethylene (TCE) is an Environmental Protection Agency priority pollutant associated with cancer in humans. With numerous industrial applications and regular landfill disposal, TCE is a common landfill leachate ...
Impact of P inputs on source-sink P dynamics of sediment along an agricultural ditch network
(Elsevier, 2019-12-19)
Phosphorus (P) loss from intensive dairy farms is a pressure on water quality in agricultural catchments. At farm scale, P sources can enter in-field drains and open ditches, resulting in transfer along ditch networks and ...
Community engaged learning: A building engineering case study
(Civil Engineering Research Association of Ireland (CERAI), 2020-08-28)
ABSTRACT: Community engaged learning is a form of experiential education with a civic underpinning. Community engaged
learning is embedded with the civil engineering curriculum at NUI Galway and is framed by a research ...
Reduced order modelling of the thermal behaviour of an office space
(Infoscience EPFL Scientific Publications, 2013-09-04)
Reduced Order Models (ROMs) have proven to be a valid and efficient approach to model the thermal behaviour of building zones. The main issues associated with the use of zonal/lumped models are how to (1) divide the domain ...
Combining engineering and qualitative models to fault diagnosis in air handling units
(IOS Press, 2014-08-18)
This paper presents a methodology for model-based fault localization and identification that exploits both numerical (Modelica) models and a qualitative model-based approach to diagnosis. It has been applied to diagnosis ...
Recovered timber in Europe: sources, classification, existing and potential reuse and recycling
(National University of Ireland Galway, 2020-09-30)
The Innovative Design for the Future Use and Reuse of Wooden building components (InFutUReWood) project aims to examine if recovered timber is suited for contemporary timber architecture. To address this aim, a study was ...
