Linear Permanent Magnet Vernier Generators for Wave Energy Applications: Analysis, Challenges, and Opportunities
(2022-09-01)Harvesting energy from waves as a substantial resource of renewable energy has attracted much attention in recent years. Linear permanent magnet vernier generators (LPMVGs) have been widely adopted in wave energy applications ... -
The linear polarisation of southern bright stars measured at the parts-per-million level
(2016-01-11)We report observations of the linear polarisation of a sample of 50 nearby southern bright stars measured to a median sensitivity of ~4.4 x 10^{-6}. We find larger polarisations and more highly polarised stars than in the ... -
The linear polarization of nearby bright stars measured at the parts per million level
(2010)We report observations of the linear polarization of a sample of 49 nearby bright stars measured to sensitivities of between ∼1 and ∼ 4 × 10−6 . The majority of stars in the sample show measurable polarization, but most ... -
Linear polarization of T-Tauri stars
(1981)Linear polarization observations over the wavelength range 0.44-2.2 microns are presented for six T Tauri type stars. All of the stars studied show substantial polarization in the infrared, while T Tau itself (and probably ... -
Linear Support Vector Machines for Error Correction in Optical Data Transmission
(Springer Nature, 2013)Reduction of bit error rates in optical transmission systems is an important task that is difficult to achieve. As speeds increase, the difficulty in reducing bit error rates also increases. Channels have differing ... -
Lined with gold: London University and the colour of science
(2005)Faculty colours for academic hoods are a surprisingly modern development. London University seems to have invented the first British system of faculty colours, out of whole cloth as it were, in 1844. But in 1862 this first ... -
The link between accretion mode and environment in radio-loud active galaxies
(2015-11-01)The interactions between radio-loud AGN and their environments play an important rôle in galaxy and cluster evolution. Recent work has demonstrated fundamental differences between high- and low-excitation radio galaxies ... -
Link between radio-loud AGNs and host-galaxy shape
(2020-10-15)The morphology of quiescent galaxies has been found to be correlated with the activity of their central super massive black hole. In this work, we use data from the first data release of the LOFAR Two$-$Metre Sky Survey ... -
The link between SCUBA and Spitzer : Cold galaxies at z ≲ 1
(2009-08-01)We show that the far-IR properties of distant Luminous and UltraLuminous InfraRed Galaxies (LIRGs and ULIRGs, respectively) are on average divergent from analogous sources in the local Universe. Our analysis is based on ... -
Linking Digital Technologies and Dynamic Capabilities : A Case Study of Small Firms in the UK Audio Visual Sector
(2010)The Creative Industries1 are acknowledged as a significant actual and potential wealth generator (Delors, 1993). However, compared with industrial manufacturing, finance or services there has been relatively little research ... -
Linking Fairtrade Shopper Insights and Supply Chain Management : Implications for Global South Producers
(2013-05-14)Fairtrade supply chains lack information linking commodity producers with fairtrade shopper behaviour. This paper aims to show how supermarket loyalty card data of over 1.7 million shoppers can be analysed using pairedsamples ... -
Linking Induction and Transrepression of PPARβ/δ with Cellular Function
(2015-01-26)Peroxisome proliferator activated receptors (PPARs) are ligand-activated transcription factors and members of the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily. PPARβ/δ is ubiquitously expressed and has a central role in homeostasis, ... -
Linking memory and language : Evidence for a serial-order learning impairment in dyslexia
(2015-09-30)The present study investigated long-term serial-order learning impairments, operationalized as reduced Hebb repetition learning (HRL), in people with dyslexia. In a first multi-session experiment, we investigated both the ... -
Linking Phospholipase C isoforms with differentiation function in human vascular smooth muscle cells
(2013-12)The phosphoinositol phospholipase C (PLC) family of enzymes consists of a number of isoforms, each of which has different cellular functions. PLCγ1 is primarily linked to tyrosine kinase transduction pathways, whereas PLCδ1 ... -
Linking teaching and research in environmental sciences
(2003)Investigating a link between teaching and research in the environmental sciences highlights the problem so admirably described by John Passmore (1974) in the early 1970s as being “forced to slosh around in the ooze that ...
