A collaborative knowledge management tool for product innovation
(2000)In order to create and deliver innovative new products and services at an ever increasing rate, manufacturing enterprises must adopt a deliberate and systematic approach to managing the drivers of innovation. Managing the ... -
A collaborative knowledge management tool for product innovation management
(Inderscience Publishers, 2003)Contemporary business systems are becoming increasingly competitive. Faster and smarter technology, although imperative, is not enough to survive in dynamic environments. Modern enterprises must adopt a deliberate and ... -
Collaborative Virtual Environments to Support Communication and Community in Internet-Based Distance Education
(jite.org, 2002)In this paper we discuss the use of modern information and communication technologies for distance education (DE) purposes. We argue that current technologies and implementations do not adequately support the key concepts ... -
A combined approach to feature extraction for mouth characterization and tracking
(IEEE, 2009-02-10)A statistical Active Appearance Model (AAM) is developed to model and track the lips. A major challenge in modelling the mouth area, considered the most deformable facial feature, is the weak contrast between lips and skin ... -
A combined experimental-numerical approach for generating statistically equivalent fibre distributions for high strength laminated composite materials
(Elsevier, 2009-11-04)A technique is presented where actual experimental distributions, measured from a high strength carbon fibre composite, are considered in the development of a novel method to generate statistically equivalent fibre ... -
A combined wear-fatigue design methodology for fretting in the pressure armour layer of flexible marine risers
(Elsevier, 2016-10-20)This paper presents a combined experimental and computational methodology for fretting wear-fatigue prediction of pressure armour wire in flexible marine risers. Fretting wear, friction and fatigue parameters of pressure ... -

(Elsevier, 2016-10-20)This paper presents a combined experimental and computational methodology for fretting wear-fatigue prediction of pressure armour wire in flexible marine risers. Fretting wear, friction and fatigue parameters of pressure ... -
A combined XFEM and cohesive zone model for composite laminate microcracking and permeability
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2014-10-07)A novel computational methodology for predicting three-dimensional microcracking and permeability in composite laminates is presented, The methodology simulates microcrack initiation and propagation using the extended ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Comparing coronary stent material performance on a common geometric platform through simulated bench testing
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2012-03-02)Absorbable metallic stents (AMSs) are a newly emerging cardiovascular technology which has the potential to eliminate long-term patient health risks associated with conventional permanent stents. AMSs developed to date ... -
Comparing how entrepreneurs and managers represent the elements of the business model canvas
(Elsevier, 2018-03-03)This paper uses self-efficacy to compare how entrepreneurs and managers represent the nine elements of the business model canvas (BMC; Osterwalder, 2004). A six-item efficacy scale was developed to measure each element. ... -
Comparison of a stratified and a single-layer laboratory sand filter to treat dairy soiled water from a farm-scale woodchip filter
(Springer, 2014-04)Washing-down parlours and standing areas, following milking on dairy farms, produces dairy soiled water (DSW) that contains variable concentrations of nutrients. Aerobic woodchip filters can remove organic matter, nutrients ... -
A comparison of automatic labelling approaches for sentiment analysis
(SciTePress, 2022-07-11)Labelling a large quantity of social media data for the task of supervised machine learning is not only time-consuming but also difficult and expensive. On the other hand, the accuracy of supervised machine learning models ... -
Comparison of coaxial open-ended probe based dielectric measurements on ex-vivo thermally ablated liver tissue
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2019-03-31)This paper compares an in-house dielectric properties measurement system based on the "Stuchly and Stuchly" method with the broadly commercialised Keysight setup and existing literature for the characterization of ablated ... -
Comparison of high temperature chars of wheat straw and rice husk with respect to chemistry, morphology and reactivity
(Elsevier, 2016-03-02)Fast pyrolysis of wheat straw and rice husk was carried out in an entrained flow reactor at high-temperatures (1000–1500) °C. The collected char was analyzed using X-ray diffractometry, N2-adsorption, scanning electron ... -
Comparison of in-vivo and ex-vivo dielectric properties of biological tissues
(Curran Associates Proceedings, 2017-09-11)Accurate knowledge of the dielectric properties of biological tissues are crucial for various applications such as assessment of specific absorption rate and safety of electromagnetic medical devices. Most of the ... -
A Comparison of Petri Net and System Dynamics Approaches for Modelling Dynamic Feedback Systems
