Evaluating the user in a sound localisation task in a virtual reality application.
(IEEE, 2020-05)
Virtual reality (VR) has proven to be a powerful tool enabling the development of immersive multimedia experiences. Initially focused on entertainment, industry and academia have begun to adapt and develop immersive ...
Characterisation of natural fibres for enhancement of concrete properties.
(OJS/PKP, 2019-06)
The use of fibres as reinforcement of composites is widely applicable for mechanical, materials and construction sectors. For instance, most of those fibres are not produced from renewable sources or by ecological procedures ...
Lateral loads applied by pedestrians at normal walking velocities.
(Taylor & Francis, 2011)
The issue of horizontal loading from pedestrians has received increased attention from bridge designers and researchers
in the past decade, primarily due to notable instances of excessive vibration of structures subjected ...
Measurement of time-dependent colour variation in concrete.
(BCRI, 2012-09)
The phenomenon of colour variation in finished concrete has become a contentious issue in recent years as engineers
and designers strive, not only for blemish free finishes, but crisp “white” concretes with uniformity ...
MR-Edge: a MapReduce-based protocol for IoT Edge computing
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2020-06)
As
the Internet of Things ( grows exponentially,
so do the volumes of data it produces Cloud
computing is a popular choice to process enormous

The importance and usefulness of comparative judgement for education assessment.
(ResearchED, 2019-02)
While comparative judgement has now been around for a number of years, it continues to be used in a variety of new ways and across multiple subjects. Jeffrey has specific experience using comparative judgement in design ...
Two new Nova Shells associated with V4362 Sagittarii and DO Aquilae
(Oxford Academic, 2020-09)
A classical nova is an eruption on the surface of a white dwarf in an accreting binary system. The material ejected from the white dwarf surface generally forms an axisymmetric shell. The shaping mechanisms of nova shells ...
Investigating the role of visualisation in complex problem-solving across expertise in engineering education
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2020-06)
Spatial ability is proposed to play an important role in problem solving and may contribute to supporting engineering students in solving complex problems.
Hambrick, et al., in the context of geology, determined individuals ...
The self-generating model: an adaptation of the self-organizing map for intellgent agents and data mining.
(Springer International, 2018-04-19)
We present the Self-Generating Model (SGM), a new version of the Self-organizing Map (SOM) that has been adapted for use in intelligent data mining ALife agents. The SGM sacrifices the topology-preserving ability of the ...
Using the Agile software development lifecycle to develop a standalone application for generating colour magnitude diagrams.
(Elsevier, 2019-07)
Virtual observatories allow the means by which an astronomer is able to discover, access, and process data seamlessly, regardless of its physical location. However, steep learning curves are often required to become ...
