Infrared imaging for human thermography and breast tumor classification using thermal images
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020-08-31)Human thermography is considered to be an integral medical diagnostic tool for detecting heat patterns and measuring quantitative temperature data of the human body. It can be used in conjunction with other medical diagnostic ... -
Infrared thermography technique as an in-situ method of assessing heat loss through thermal bridging
(Elsevier, 2016-11-17)A key aspect in assessing the thermal standard of building envelopes is the quantification of the heat loss though thermal bridging, which can be expressed in terms of the linear thermal transmittance Psi. Values of W may ... -
An injectable alginate/extra cellular matrix (ECM) hydrogel towards acellular treatment of heart failure
(Springer Verlag, 2018-12-03)As treatments for myocardial infarction (MI) continue to improve, the population of people suffering from heart failure (HF) is rising significantly. Novel treatment strategies aimed at achieving long-term functional ... -
Innovation management for product and process development
(2000)Industry we are told manages change poorly. Surveys indicate that over 50% of change programmes fail to meet objectives. The reasons cited are all too familiar: poor goal definition, poor alignment of actions to goals and ... -
The Innovations and Inventions of Steve Jobs [IP Corner]
(IEEE, 2014-04)Much of the world of patents is shrouded in layers of legal mysticism, semantic nuances, and subtle complexities. Those of you who are regular readers of "IP Corner" will know that I often try to explain the principles ... -
Input and output data analysis for system dynamics modelling using the tidyverse libraries of R
(Wiley, 2018-09-07)From a number of perspectives, system dynamics is a data‐intensive activity. First, each modelling challenge addresses behaviour over time, where historical time series data inform the model‐building process, and techniques ... -
An insight into bone dielectric properties variation: a foundation for electromagnetic medical devices
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2018-09-10)Dielectric properties of bones have recently got significant attention to monitor bone quality. This paper reports in-vitro dielectric properties of human trabecular bone samples obtained from osteoporotic and osteoarthritic ... -
Installation of a reduced-scale pile group in silt
(IHS BRE Press, 2008)This paper presents measurements of total stress and pore pressure made during and after the installation of a reduced scale group of five piles in a soft estuarine silt. The instrumentation includes pore pressure and ... -
Instrumented concrete pile tests – part 1: a review of instrumentation and procedures
(ICE Publishing, 2021-11-03)Preliminary pile tests are becoming increasingly routine in piling projects, some of which are instrumented to help optimise working pile design. However, the execution of a successful test on an instrumented concrete ... -
Instrumented concrete pile tests – part 2: strain interpretation
(ICE Publishing, 2021-11-03)The incorporation of strain gauges (traditionally electrical resistance and vibrating wire gauges but increasingly fibre optic sensors) within concrete piles enables an enhanced understanding of the shear stress distribution ... -
Instrumented single and group piles in Belfast soft clay
(Australian Geomechanics Society, 2000-12)The paper presents a number of key findings from an experimental pile test programme, which is currently underway at a soft clay test bed site on the outskirts of Belfast, Northern Ireland. These findings provide additional ... -
An integrated approach to trophic assessment of coastal waters incorporating measurement, modelling and water quality classification
(2012)Various protocols have been developed for trophic assessment of coastal waters but most incorporate single value compliance criteria for water quality parameters which, in reality, exhibit significant spatial variation. ... -
An integrated assessment of nitrogen source, transformation and fate within an intensive dairy system to inform management change.
(Public Library of Science, 2019-07-23)From an environmental perspective optimised dairy systems, which follow current regulations, still have low nitrogen (N) use efficiency, high N surplus (kg N ha-1) and enable ad-hoc delivery of direct and indirect reactive ... -
An integrated connectivity risk ranking for phosphorus and nitrogen along agricultural open ditches to inform targeted and specific mitigation management
(Frontiers Media, 2024-02-19)On dairy farms with poorly drained soils and high rainfall, open ditches receive nutrients from different sources along different pathways which are delivered to surface water. Recently, open ditches were ranked in terms ... -
Integrated demand response solution towards energy positive neighbourhoods: Demand response programs overview
(RESPOND Consortium, 2017)Purpose: this reports presents an analysis of the contemporary demand response (DR) programs and solutions, already applied at European and Worldwide level. The document is divided into two main parts: the first one ... -
Integrating tagging into the web of data: Overview and combination of existing tag ontologies
(Taiwan Academic Network, 2011-07)As the number of social websites offering tagging facilities increases, tagging has become not only a common basis for user participation, but also an important aspect of social content. Tagging is primarily based on the ... -
Integration of fault detection and diagnosis with energy management standard ISO 50001 and operations and maintenance of HVAC systems
(National University of Ireland Galway, 2013-06-16)Fault Detection and Diagnosis (FDD) has become a robust scientific field offering proven methods for the optimization and more effective operation of HVAC systems. However, FDD practical application faces ... -
Interactions, mechanisms and impact of future coastal urban flooding. A case study of Cork city
(Hydrology Ireland, 2020-11-17)In coastal floodplains, high river flows and high coastal water levels can result in extensive flooding. Mechanisms of flooding play a crucial role in flood characteristics with distinctive differences in flood wave ... -
