FR II radio galaxies with z < 0.3 I. Properties of jets, cores and hotspots
(1998)In previous papers we have discussed high-resolution observations of a large sample of powerful radio galaxies with z < 0.3. Jets are detected in up to 80 per cent of the sample, and radio cores in nearly all the objects; ... -
FR II radio galaxies with z<0.3 -- II. Beaming and unification
(1999)In a previous paper we presented measurements of the properties of jets and cores in a large sample of FRII radio galaxies with z < 0.3. Here we test, by means of Monte Carlo simulations, the consistency of those data with ... -
FR-II radio galaxies at low frequencies II: spectral ageing and source dynamics
(2017-07-01)In this paper, the second in a series investigating FR II radio galaxies at low frequencies, we use LOFAR and VLA observations between 117 and 456 MHz in addition to archival data to determine the dynamics and energetics ... -
Fractal Analyses of Gait Variability During a Marathon
(2021-08-06)Detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) and Higuchi’s fractal dimension (HG) have previously been used to characterise motor control during gait. However, there is limited evidence of either being applied to running gait ... -
Fractalkine cleavage from neuronal membranes represents an acute event in the inflammatory response to excitotoxic brain damage
(2000-08-01)Fractalkine is a recently identified chemokine that exhibits cell adhesion and chemoattractive properties. It represents a unique member of the chemokine superfamily because it is located predominantly in the brain in which ... -
Fractalkine is expressed by smooth muscle cells in response to IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha and is modulated by metalloproteinase activity
(2002-01-15)Fractalkine/CX3C-chemokine ligand 1 is expressed as a membrane-spanning adhesion molecule that can be cleaved from the cell surface to produce a soluble chemoattractant. Within the vasculature, fractalkine is known to be ... -
The Fraction of DA White Dwarfs with Kilo-Gauss Magnetic Fields
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2007)Current estimates for white dwarfs with fields in excess of 1MG are about 10%; according to our first high-precision circular-polarimetric study of 12 bright white dwarfs with the VLT (Aznar Cuadrado et al. 2004) this ... -
Fractional memristor
(2017-12-11)Based on the differential conformal transformation in the fractional order, we defined the fractional memristor in contrast to the traditional (integer-order) memristor. As an example, a typical spin-transfer torque (STT) ... -
Frailty and the psychosocial components of the edmonton frail scale are most associated with patient experience in older kidney transplant candidates – a secondary analysis within the kidney transplantation in older people (KTOP) study
(2023-01-17)Background: Older people with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) are vulnerable to frailty, which impacts on clinical and experiential outcomes. With kidney transplantation in older people increasing, a better understanding ... -
Frailty scales - their potential in interprofessional working with older people: a discussion paper
(2011-07)New models of interprofessional working are continuously being proposed to address the burgeoning health and social care needs of older people with complex and long-term health conditions. Evaluations of the effectiveness ... -
A frame work for business process & information systems reengineering (BP&ISR)
(University of Hertfordshire, 1996)Despite widespread interest, a growing body of work in the field, and the emergence of a number of business process reengineering (BPR) 'gurus' such as Hammer, Harrington and Davenport, very little guidance is currently ... -
Framework for Assessment of the 12 Lead ECG in Transient Loss of Consciousness
(2012-11-05)Following the introduction of pre-hospital thrombolysis, the acquisition and interpretation of the 12 lead ECG has become a routine part of UK paramedic practice. Although there is a growing body of evidence that confirms ... -
A framework for creating semantically adaptive collaborative e-learning environments
(2009)In this paper we present a framework that can be used to generate web-based, semantically adaptive, e-learning and computer-assisted assessment (CAA) tools for any given knowledge domain, based upon dynamic ontological ... -
A framework for evaluation and prediction of software process improvement success
(2001-11-15)The literature shows that software process improvement (SPI) is a current popular approach to software quality and that many companies are undertaking formal or informal SPI programs. However, the anticipated improvements ... -
A Framework for Key Account Management and Revenue Management Integration
(2014-10-31)Key Account Management (KAM) and Revenue Management (RevM) have been widely practiced in the service industries for more than three decades, but the effects of RevM on KAM remain largely unknown. This paper addresses this ... -
A framework for practical and effective eco-labelling of food products
(2012-05-23)Purpose: The pressure on the food industry and society as a whole to evolve towards more sustainable production and consumption has increased in recent years. There are a number of drivers that can help reduce environmental ... -
A Framework for Predicting Person-Effort on Requirements Changes
(IOS Press, 2006)Requirements changes are normally reviewed by change control committees, who examine costs and consider consequences of additions, deletions and modifications to a piece of software. In order to predict the person effort ...
