Oblique Detonation Wave Control with O3 and H2O2 Sensitization in Hypersonic Flow
(MDPI journals, 2022-06-04)This numerical study investigates the effects of adding a small amount of ignition promoters for controlling the wedge-induced oblique shock wave (OSW) to oblique detonation wave (ODW) transition in a premixed hydrogen–air ... -
Obstacle detection with ultrasonic sensors and signal analysis metrics
(Elsevier, 2017)One of the basic tasks for autonomous flight with aerial vehicles (drones) is the detection of obstacles within its flight environment. As the technology develops and becomes more robust, drones will become part of the ... -
Ocular metrics in concussion: An analytical prospective cohort study to establish normative ocular metrics in a healthy sporting population
(Institute of Technology Carlow, 2018)Introduction: Concussion diagnosis is a clinical challenge for healthcare providers. Identification of concussion is presently aided by tools such as the Sport Concussion Assessment Tool (SCAT3); such tools remain largely ... -
Older adult insights for age friendly environments, products and service systems
(Loughborough University, 2018-05)The environments we grow old in present a challenge to be adaptive to our changing needs and limitations. Environments, in the context of this paper, are the spaces, products and product service systems that we engage with, ... -
Older adults and self-service banking: A user centred study into the behaviour of older adults interacting with automated teller machines, collected and synthesised using visual research methods
(Iterations, 2017)Older adults and self-service banking: a user centred study into the behaviour of older adults interacting with automated teller machines, collected and synthesised using visual research methods. -
On unsteady flow analysis of a round spike blunt nose afterbody in mach 6 flow
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2021)An aerospike, in front of a blunt body, has largely been deemed as a key passive control device for effectively reducing the wave drag and aerodynamic heating associated with high-speed flows. In addition, it has been ... -
Online-based participatory design: a case study of developing international standards during a pandemic
(Universidad do Vale de Rio dos Sinos (UNISINOS), 2022-09-05)Standards are essential instruments to ensure the safety, efficiency and quality of products, services, systems, processes, and environments. In pre-pandemic times, the standard development process ... -
The open dataset on students’ perceptions of virtual learning environments in Ireland: Collaborating to listen to the student voice
(John Wiley & Sons, 2015)The Irish inter‐institutional virtual learning environments (VLEs) open dataset stems from ongoing work with a rolling longitudinal survey of students’ usage of VLEs which has been ongoing in 12 higher education institutions ... -
An Open-Source Testbed to Visualise ICS Cybersecurity Weaknesses and Remediation Strategies – A Research Agenda Proposal
(IEEE, 2021-07)Industrial Control Systems (ICS) are responsible for the control of several processes in various critical infrastructure deployments ranging from energy, power and water utilities, to manufacturing sectors such as ... -
Optochemical detection strategies for heavy metals in water
(Institute of Technology Carlow, 2020-11)Groundwater contamination by toxic heavy metals is a serious global issue, therefore, there is an increasing demand for fast, portable and reliable on site monitoring methods for heavy metals in water. Conventional laboratory ... -
Orange alerts: Lessons from an outdoor case study
(IEEE, 2011)Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) is of particular relevance to those who may suffer from Alzheimer’s Disease or dementia, and, of course, their carers. The slow but progressive nature of the disease, together with its ... -
Pain and function in the runner a ten (din) uous link
(MDPI, 2020)A male runner (30 years old; 10-km time: 33 min, 46 s) had been running with suspected insertional Achilles tendinopathy (AT) for similar to 2 years when the pain reached a threshold that prevented running. Diagnostic ... -
Particle Acceleration Through Coaxial Co-Flow Nozzles for Cold Spray Applications
(ITSC 2022 Thermal Spray Conference and Exposition, 2022)The present study numerically investigates the effectiveness of co-flowing nozzle for cold spray application. A convergent - divergent axi-symmetric nozzles have been simulated with high-pressure nitrogen flow. The particle ... -
Passive battery thermal management in electric vehicles using fin embedded composite phase change materials
(Institute of Technology, Carlow, 2021)The efficiency of battery packs installed in electric vehicles (EVs) is greatly influenced by their operating temperature. Thus, it is paramount that an effective battery thermal management system be incorporated. While ... -
Plant growth promotion induced by phosphate solubilizing endophytic Pseudomonas isolates.
(Frontiers Media, 2015)The use of plant growth promoting bacterial inoculants as live microbial biofertilizers provides a promising alternative to chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Inorganic phosphate solubilization is one of the major ... -
Plant-associated bacterial degradation of toxic organic compounds in soil
(MDPI, 2009)A number of toxic synthetic organic compounds can contaminate environmental soil through either local (e.g., industrial) or diffuse (e.g., agricultural) contamination. Increased levels of these toxic organic compounds in ... -
Polychlorinated biphenyl rhizoremediation by Pseudomonas fluorescens F113 derivatives, using a Sinorhizobium meliloti nod system to drive bph gene expression.
(American Society for Microbiology, 2004)Rhizoremediation of organic chemicals requires high-level expression of biodegradation genes in bacterial strains that are excellent rhizosphere colonizers. Pseudomonas fluorescens F113 is a biocontrol strain that was shown ... -
Prevalence of BoHV-1 seropositive and BVD virus positive bulls on Irish dairy farms and associations between bull purchase and herd status
(Irish Veterinary Journal, 2015)Background - BVD and IBR are contagious viral diseases highly prevalent in Irish cattle. Despite their significant reproductive and economic impact very little is known about the BVD and IBR status of stock bulls (a bull ... -
Profiling antibiotic resistance and electrotransformation potential of Ensifer adhaerens OV14; a non-Agrobacterium species capable of efficient rates of plant transformation.
(Oxford University Press, 2015)Ensifer adhaerens OV14 underpins the successful crop transformation protocol termed Ensifer-mediated transformation but issues exist in regard to addressing the pleomorphic tendency of the bacterium in suboptimal conditions, ... -
