Chaos and Order in Agile Software Development: a Comparison of Two Software Development Teams in a Major IT Company
(2007)Agile methods have emerged and become popular over last few years as a response to shortcomings of the waterfall process model. However, agile processes are stamped by some as chaotic processes and are placed in opposition ... -
Characterisation and analysis of Memory T-cells in COVID-19 patient sample
(NUI Galway, 2023-08-08)Background: Immunological memory is the key to long-term protection against disease. It is the hallmark of adaptive immunity which facilitates an accelerated and enhanced immune response against a pathogen encountered ... -
Characterisation and differentiation of lactobacilli by lectin typing
(Microbiology Society, 2001-12-01)Lactobacillus isolates from healthy Estonian and Swedish children were characterised by a lectin typing technique; 56 isolates from six species (L. acidophilus, L. paracasei, L. plantarum, L. fermentum, L. brevis and L. ... -
Characterisation and testing of carbon fibre PEEK for linerless composite cryogenic storage tanks
(NUI Galway, 2020-05-07)Cryogenic storage tanks, also known ’cryotanks’, are an important component of space launch vehicles. Cryotanks can form an integral part of the overall structure of the launch vehicle and also represent a significant ... -
Characterisation of biotinylated liposomes for in vivo targeting applications
(Wiley-Blackwell, 1993-10-11)Liposomes containing monosialoganglioside (G(M1)) or polyethylene glycol (PEG) lipid derivatives have prolonged circulation in the blood. This favours liposome extravasation to tumour sites. In this report it is shown that ... -
Characterisation of bovine pericardium and alternative treatments for its application as biomaterial
(NUI Galway, 2020-04-09)Bovine pericardium is an extensively used biomaterial utilised in a wide range of biomedical devices such as bioprosthetic heart valves. The characterisation techniques employed for the analysis of bovine pericardium and ... -
Characterisation of core histone sequences and nuclear mobility using a reproducible research approach
(2017-09-19)Chromatin is a dynamic complex that controls access to genetic information by undergoing structural reconfigurations. Understanding this dynamic can provide insights into the biological implications of chromatin ... -
Characterisation of engrafted mesenchymal stem cells post intra-articular injection in healthy mouse joint

Characterisation of histone variants in the cnidarian Hydractinia
(NUI Galway, 2019-02-21)Hydractinia is a marine hydrozoan cnidarian that has been a model organism for developmental biology for over a century. Very few studies have been carried out on chromatin biology in cnidarians. To date, there is no ... -
Characterisation of human nucleolar organisers located in previously uncharted regions of the human genome
(NUI Galway, 2019-01-18)The nucleolus is a large, sub-nuclear domain and the site of ribosome biogenesis. Nucleoli form around chromosomal loci called ‘nucleolar organiser regions (NORs) located on the short arms of the human acrocentric ... -
Characterisation of Irish-grown Scots pine timber for structural applications
(National University of Ireland Galway, 2020-08-27)There is very little knowledge on the timber quality of the native Scots pine grown in Ireland, and its potential to produce timber for structural applications. This paper studied the mechanical performance in tension and ... -
Characterisation of Irish-grown Scots pine timber for structural applications
(Civil Engineering Research in Ireland, 2020)There is very little knowledge on the timber quality of the native Scots pine grown in Ireland, and its potential to produce timber for structural applications. This paper studied the mechanical performance in tension and ... -

Characterisation of LCF performance of X100 weld-joints: Mechanistic yield strength modelling, finite element analyses and DIC testing
(Elsevier, 2021-03-26)This paper is concerned with the effect of welding on the fatigue behaviour of X100 material for steel catenary risers. The methodology includes both modelling and experimental characterisation. The modelling combines (i) ... -
Characterisation of novel ATM-interacting factors involved in double-strand break repair
(2012-10-22)Ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) is a rare human disease characterized by cerebellar degeneration, immune system defects and cancer predisposition. The disease has been the subject of intense scientific scrutiny, particularly ... -
Characterisation of novel Histone H3 RAD9 mutants defective in the DNA damage response in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
(2013-02-28)The DNA damage response (DDR) is a signal transduction cascade, which regulates cell cycle progression, gene transcription and DNA repair. Histones also play a vital role in the activation of the DDR and have been shown ... -
Characterisation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor signalling in the midbrain periaqueductal grey of rats genetically prone to heightened stress, negative affect and hyperalgesia
(Elsevier, 2016-12-01)The stress-hyperresponsive Wistar-Kyoto (WRY) rat strain exhibits a hyperalgesic phenotype and is a useful genetic model for studying stress-pain interactions. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) signalling ... -
Characterisation of rotationally moulded polymer liners for low permeability cryogenic applications in composite overwrapped pressure vessels
(2016-09-20)Composite overwrapped pressure vessels (COPVs) have become a critical component in satellite and space applications due to their ability to store highly permeating fuels at high pressures and under cryogenic conditions. ... -
Characterisation of sex differences in behavioural domains and antidepressant response in two rat models of depression
(NUI Galway, 2018-10-17)Although the rate of depression is known to be almost twice as high in women compared to men, most evaluation of antidepressant efficacy involved only males until the early 1990s. In pre-clinical depression research male ...
