Cyclic loading tests on sandstone and limestone shale aggregates used in unbound forest roads.
(Construction and Building Materials, 2009-06-01)This study examined the performance of two aggregates subjected to cyclic loading in a large-scale test rig. The two aggregates examined were: (i) a sandstone from Co. Cork, Ireland and (ii) a limestone shale from Co. ... -
Cyclic performance of steel and composite bracing members
(2005)This paper describes an experimental study on the response of hollow and filled steel members to monotonic and cyclic axial loading. Monotonic tests were first performed on short specimens to establish their compressive ... -
Cyclic thermo-mechanical material modelling and testing of 316 stainless steel
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2010-04-20)A programme of cyclic mechanical testing of a 316 stainless steel, at temperatures of up to 600 C under isothermal conditions, for the identification of material constitutive constants, has been carried out using a ... -
Cyclic viscoplasticity testing and modelling of a service-aged P91 steel
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2014-04-16)A service-aged P91 steel was used to perform an experimental program of cyclic mechanical testing in the temperature range of 400 °C–600 °C, under isothermal conditions, using both saw-tooth and dwell (inclusion of a ... -
Cycling and Transport of Phosphorus and Nitrogen from Harvested Peatland Forests and Possible Mitigation and Methods
(2012-11-16)Drainage of peatlands has been part of forestry practice since the early 20th century. In Ireland and the UK, approximately 800,000 ha of peat catchments were drained and afforested between the 1950s and 1990s. A large ... -
Cyclonic circulation in the western Irish Sea in future climate
(International Association for Hydro-Environment Engineering and Research, 2011-07-01)The Irish Sea (IS) is a semi-enclosed body of water on the European Continental Shelf and the Western Irish Sea Gyre (WISG) is a characteristic phenomenon of the Sea. The gyre due to its significant effects on the circulation, ... -
Cytotoxic drug induced JNK activation is DR5-dependent and vital for apoptosis and provides a new target for MSC-mediated delivery of DR5-specific sTRAIL variants
(2013-03-20)Over the past two decades, cancer research has produced tremendous advances in our understanding of the pathogenesis of cancer. Among the most important of these advances is the realization that apoptosis and the proteins ... -
D-FOAF - Distributed Identity Management based on Social Networks
(2006)Contemporary Web consists of more than just information, it provides a large number of services, which often require identi¿cation of it¿s users. Since distributed or shared identi¿cation systems are not yet widely adopted ... -
D-FOAF - Security Aspects in Distributed User Management System
(IEEE, 2005)The contemporary Internet offers various services ranging from electronic newspapers to on- line social networks. To authorize themselves, users have to register to on-line services. However, most of the ... -
D-FOAF: Distributed Identity Management with Access Rights Delegation
(2006)WWW provides a large number of services, which often require identification of it¿s users. This has lead to the fact that today users have to maintain a large number of different credentials for different websites - ... -
Dairy and grassland economics in an era of possible expansion
(2015-10-14)Thesis focuses on the efficiency and the Total Factor Productivity (TFP) which is associated with the dairy enterprise of Specialist Dairy farms. The approach uses econometric methods to generate its measures. Special ... -
Damage and permeability in linerless composite cryogenic tanks
(2015-09-29)Carbon fibre reinforced polymers (CFRP) are one of the prospective material families being investigated for use in the fuel tanks of future reusable launch vehicles (RLVs). The extreme cryogenic thermo-mechanical loading ... -
Damage characterisation of cryogenically cycled carbon fibre/PEEK laminates
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2014-08-14)A unique insight into damage formation in CF/PEEK laminates before, during and after cryogenic cycling, using optical microscopy and 3D X-ray computed tomography (CT), is presented. Thicker laminates were found to exhibit ... -
Dangerously Empty? Hegemony and the construction of the Irish Entrepreneur
(SAGE Journals Online, 2012-03)In this paper we build on Jones and Spicer's (2009) conceptualisation of the entrepreneur as an empty signifier. We explore the function of the signifier 'entrepreneurship' within a social context marked by crisis: Ireland ... -
Dante Alighieri from absence to stony presence: building memories in nineteenth-century Florence
(Taylor & Francis, 2013-10-12)The Dante narrative is one of the key narratives of nineteenth-century Italy in the self-fashioning of Italian patriotism. This article looks at the momentum behind the project to commemorate Dante in Florence in the early ... -
Daring, substance use and involvement in violence among school children
(Haworth Press (Taylor & Francis), 2006-09-22)This study explores whether the association between substance use and involvement in youth violence is a unique association resulting from the properties of the drugs, or whether it is part of a larger behavioral cluster. ... -
Dark spot, Spiral waves and the SW Sex behaviour: it is all about UX Ursae Majoris
(2010)We present an analysis of time-resolved, medium resolution optical spectroscopic observations of UX UMa in the blue (3920-5250 A) and red (6100-7200 A) wavelength ranges, that were obtained in April 1999 and March 2008 ... -
