Computational methods for micromechanics characterisation: Application to and experimental investigation of metal additive manufacturing and heat treatment processes
(NUI Galway, 2022-11-23)Powder bed fusion (PBF) is an additive manufacturing process in which finely focused thermal energy is used to selectively melt target regions within thin layers of metal powders. Due to the complex thermal conditions ... -
Computational modelling framework for predicting the evolution of biodegradable polymers during degradation
(NUI Galway, 2022-11-28)Biodegradable polymers are attractive alternatives for many permanent implants, potentially reducing long term risks. Designing optimal devices for their intended purpose, however, is costly and time consuming, with small ... -
Computational modelling of dynamic recrystallisation of Ni-based superalloy during linear friction welding
(Springer, 2022-01-12)Linear friction welding (LFW) is an advanced joining technology used for manufacturing and repairing complex assemblies like blade integrated disks (blisks) of aeroengines. This paper presents an integrated multiphysics ... -
Computational modelling of emissions from gas turbines: Ensuring experimental reliability and quantifying emissions uncertainty
(NUI Galway, 2019-02-18)Global environmental concerns and the increasing amount of power generated using gas turbines have led to the development of dry low emission (DLE) combustion systems to minimize the NOx and CO pollutants. Improvements in ... -
Computational modelling of linear friction welding of Inconel 718
(NUI Galway, 2022-07-15)Linear friction welding (LFW) is a solid-state joining technique that involves the rapid reciprocating motion of two workpieces under large compressive pressure, in order to generate friction heat and plastically deformed ... -
Computational modelling of ovine critical-sized tibial defects with implanted scaffolds and prediction of the safety of fixator removal
(Elsevier, 2015-01-14)Computational model geometries of tibial defects with two types of implanted tissue engineering scaffolds, β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) and poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL)/β-TCP, are constructed from µ-CT scan images of the ... -
Computational modelling of the coupled electro-mechanical behaviour of neurons
(NUI Galway, 2019-01-22)Recent experimental evidence has uncovered complex biophysical phenomena accompanying the electrical activity of nervous cells. Now emerging theories refer to the electric pulse, i.e. the Action Potential (AP), as an ... -
Computational modelling of the degradation of poly-L-lactide for a bioresorbable polymeric stent
(NUI Galway, 2020-05-08)The interest in biodegradable polymers for the design of bioresorbable stents, temporary vascular scaffolds designed to restore patency to obstructed vessels, has witnessed a dramatic growth over the last ten to fifteen ... -
Computational modelling of thermofluid flashing in MSF desalination
(2017-08-21)Phase change inside a desalination flashing chamber arises from the surface evaporation with self-boiling of liquid brine flow due to a reduction of pressure. Flashing flow is the key to desalination of the feed water in ... -
Computational screening of the human tf-glycome provides a structural definition for the specificity of anti-tumor antibody jaa-f11
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2013-01-24)Recombinant antibodies are of profound clinical significance; yet, anti-carbohydrate antibodies are prone to undesirable cross-reactivity with structurally related-glycans. Here we introduce a new technology called ... -
Computational Selection of Transcriptomics Experiments Improves Guilt-by-Association Analyses
(PLos ONE, 2012-08-07)The Guilt-by-Association (GBA) principle, according to which genes with similar expression profiles are functionally associated, is widely applied for functional analyses using large heterogeneous collections of transcriptomics ... -
Computational simulation of the relaxation of local stresses due to foreign object damage under cyclic loading
