Numerical study of oblique detonation wave control for fuel blends
(2023)The current study is motivated to develop control strategies for oblique detonation wave formation on a finite length wedge in a premixed methane-air mixture. The effectiveness of hydrogen blends (0 - 100%) to methaneair ... -
Unsteady DSMC Simulation of blunt nose with spike at hypersonic rarefield flows
(2023-03-29)To design an efficient ram-air intake for an air-breathing propulsion system for VLEO (Very-Low) / SLEO (Super Low) Earth Orbit satellites requires consideration of the unsteady effects in the hypersonic low-density or ... -
Mach number dependence of flow instability around a spiked body
(AIP Publishing, 2023-05-05)A forward-facing aerospike have been identified as a passive flow control device for enhancing the aerodynamic efficiency and reducing the heat transfer in high-speed flows. In addition, it has been reported that the ... -
An assessment of radiation models utilized in CFD for thermal and fluid analysis in interior building spaces with large glazing
(AIP Publishing, 2023)This paper investigates the effects of using the S2S and the DO method in the CFD simulation of a cavity to identify a convenient model for simulating radiative heat transfer. A 3D model for an office room fitted with a ... -
A concept of aerospike nozzle for cold spray additive manufacturing: towards a potential solution for preventing the issue of clogging
(ASM International, 2023-05-22)The clogging, a frequent gas passage deformation phenomenon because of powder accumulation on inner nozzle wall, is a major issue in long duration Cold Spray (CS) operations and a major challenge for Cold spray technology ... -
Investigation of a modified circular nozzle for cold spray applications
(ASM International, 2023-05-22)The current work numerically evaluates the efficacy of a coflowing nozzle for cold spray applications with the aim to mitigate nozzle clogging by reducing the length of its divergent section. The high-pressure nitrogen ... -
Co-designing with engineers for community engagement in rural Uganda
(Cambridge University Press, 2023-05-04)Co-design is seen as crucial for designing solutions for resource-constrained people living in developing countries. To best understand their needs, user engagement and co-design strategies need to first be developed. ... -
Increasing student motivation and awareness towards career opportunities through gamification
(2017-10)Student engagement is important to ensure success towards their desired career opportunities (High and Andrews, 2009). Students engage with their coursework to receive the necessary grades to avoid failure (Covington, ... -
Faultlines irish design research conference 2015: book of abstracts
(designCORE, 2015-06-03)Welcome to the Irish Design Research Conference 2015, an initiative of designCORE at the Dargan Centre, Institute of Technology Carlow. This all island and event has been cosponsored by ID2015 as part of Year of ... -
Interdisciplinary gerontological research by design
(British Society of Gerontology, 2021-07-09)Increasingly, gerontological research requires interdisciplinary approaches to address complex research questions. Design methods have been proven to facilitate the growth of interdisciplinary research as they are agile, ... -
Irish designers as future change agents
(2016-11)The designer’s role as ‘change agent’ has evolved greatly over the last century. Plotting the evolution of the designer, Bousbaci describes this as one from intuitive and artistic designer, to logical designer, to reflective ... -
Aging research and design thinking: How interdisciplinary collaboration and stakeholder engagement can drive trainees' research impact
(2022-10-20)Aging research is increasingly seeking to solve complex challenges in a context where discovery to implementation and impact may take decades. Design thinking is an approach to problem solving that can accelerate impact ... -
How to design a future Ireland for an ageing population
(RTE Brainstorm, 2022-11-15)Opinion: a rapidly ageing population means we need creative approaches to help us understand complex needs and allow freedom to define our future -
Healthcare provision for older people in kilkenny through the implementation of the integrated care programme for older people
(Oxford Academic, 2021-11-03)Background An increase in the cost of healthcare provision is directly related to an ageing demographic nationally and internationally. It is, therefore, imperative that the system of health and social care provision ... -
Shared usability a support mechanism to product and service system design for older adults.
(Europe Chapter Human Factors and Ergonomics Society, 2015-10-16)Globally the Older Adult population is increasing; people are living longer, often with physical or functional limitations whilst remaining in their own home. This indicates a requirement of responsibility by Associated ... -
