Disease mentions in airport and hospital geolocations expose dominance of news events for disease concerns
(Springer Nature, 2018-06-12)Background: In recent years, Twitter has been applied to monitor diseases through its facility to monitor users' comments and concerns in real-time. The analysis of tweets for disease mentions should reflect not only user ... -
A Disequilibrium Macrodynamic Model of Fluctuations
(National University of Ireland, Galway, 2004)A nonlinear disequilibrium macrodynamic model of uctuations in the labour and product markets, mediated by variations in factor shares, is developed and the exis- tence of a periodic orbit is proved using the Hopf ... -
The disfigured ontology of figurational sociology: Norbert Elias and the question of violence
(Sage, 2012)This article scrutinises Norbert Elias s figurational sociology byfocusing on its ontological foundations. The analytical spotlight is onthe inherent tension between Elias s stance of normative neutralityand detachment, ... -
A dislocation mechanics constitutive model for effects of welding-induced microstructural transformation on cyclic plasticity and low-cycle fatigue for X100Q bainitic steel
(Elsevier, 2020-12-14)This paper presents a physically-based cyclic viscoplasticity model to capture the influence of welding-induced microstructural transformation on the fatigue response of the bainitic high-strength low-alloy steel, X100Q. ... -
A dislocation-based model for high temperature cyclic viscoplasticity of 9-12Cr steels
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2015-06-22)A dislocation-based model for high temperature cyclic viscoplasticity in 9–12Cr steels is presented. This model incorporates (i) cyclic softening via decrease in overall dislocation density, loss of low angle boundary ... -
A dislocation-based yield strength determination model in nano-indentation test
(SAGE Publications, 2021-02-20)This paper presents a dislocation-based yield strength model for the nano-indentation size effect. The model is based on functional expressions involving the densities of statistically stored dislocations and geometrically ... -
Dispersal mode and assessments of recovery on the shores of Gruinard, the 'anthrax island'.
(Springer Verlag, 2008)Formaldehyde run-off was an unintended impact of the anthrax decontamination procedure on the island of Gruinard. The death of intertidal organisms was observed where formaldehyde reached the shore during 1986. The extent ... -
Displaced supracondylar fractures of the humerus in children
(Springer Nature, 2000-10-04)We performed an outcome study of completely displaced supracondylar fractures in children in order to assess the outcome of primary open reduction and internal fixation for these injuries. A total of 16 patients (mean age ... -
Displacement and relocation in early modern Ireland: Studies of transplantation settlement in Connacht and Clare
(2012-10-26)This thesis is a study of three diverse Catholic families that received land during the mid seventeenth-century Cromwellian transplantation to and within Connacht and Clare. Transplantees, while being united in their ... -
Disrupting the status quo? Discrimination in academic promotions
(Thomson Round Hall, 2017)In June 2016 the HEA Report of the Expert Group: HEA National Review of Gender Equality in Higher Education Institutions (Gender Equality Review) reported and stated that there was a need for “radical action” without ... -
Disruption of microRNA Biogenesis Confers Resistance to ER Stress-Induced Cell Death Upstream of the Mitochondrion
(2013)Global downregulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) is a common feature of human tumors and has been shown to enhance cancer progression. Several components of the miRNA biogenesis machinery (XPO5, DICER and TRBP) have been shown ... -
Disruption of microrna biogenesis confers resistance to er stress-induced cell death upstream of the mitochondrion
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2013-08-19)Global downregulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) is a common feature of human tumors and has been shown to enhance cancer progression. Several components of the miRNA biogenesis machinery (XPO5, DICER and TRBP) have been shown ... -
Disruption of NEDD8 protein conjugation as a novel therapy for acute myeloid leukemia
(2012-08-15)The coordinated balance between the synthesis and degradation of proteins is an important regulator of cancer cell biology. The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) is responsible for the timed destruction of many proteins ... -
Disruption of the microtubule network alters cellulose deposition and causes major changes in pectin distribution in the cell wall of the green alga,penium margaritaceum
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2013-11-27)Application of the dintroaniline compound, oryzalin, which inhibits microtubule formation, to the unicellular green alga Penium margaritaceum caused major perturbations to its cell morphology, such as swelling at the wall ... -
Dissecting optional micro-decisions in online transactions: perceptions, deceptions and errors
(Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), 2022-05-02)Online firms frequently increase profit by selling optional extras. However, opt-in rates tend to be low. In response, questionable design practices have emerged to nudge consumers into inadvertent choices. Many of these ... -
Dissecting the evolution of resistance to microtubule hyper-stabilization
(NUI Galway, 2024-01-31)When microtubules are hyper-stabilized, they do not provide the proper tension at the kinetochore of the metaphase chromosomes. Low tension leads to the activation of the spindle assembly checkpoint which stops cells ...
