An Investigation of Futurist Architectural Design
(European Academy of Design, 2005) -
Investigation of guided wave properties of anisotropic composite laminates using a semi-analytical finite element method
(2019-09-15)Composite materials have been widely used in various applications, and guided waves are often used as a non-destructive testing tool to inspect defects or damage in composite laminates which are assemblies of multiple ... -
Investigation of Heat of Biomass Pyrolysis and Secondary Reactions by Simultaneous Thermogravimetry and Differential Scanning Calorimetry
(2014-10-15)The heat of pyrolysis reactions is of great importance not only for its impact on biomass pyrolysis process but as a fundamental parameter for modelling biomass thermochemical conversion. Previously frequently-used technique ... -
An investigation of how fungal infection influences drug penetration through onychomycosis patient's nail plates
(2016-05)The treatment of onychomycosis remains problematic even though there are several potent antifungal agents available for patient use. The aim of this investigation was to understand if the structural modifications that arise ... -
An Investigation of How Wavelet Transform can Affect the Correlation Performance of Biomedical Signals : The Correlation of EEG and HRV Frequency Bands in the frontal lobe of the brain
(SciTePress, 2018-02-07)Recently, the correlation between biomedical signals, such as electroencephalograms (EEG) and electrocardiograms (ECG) time series signals, has been analysed using the Pearson Correlation method. Although Wavelet Transformations ... -
An investigation of lucky imaging techniques
(2009)We present an empirical analysis of the effectiveness of frame selection (also known as Lucky Imaging) techniques for high resolution imaging. A high-speed image recording system has been used to observe a number of bright ... -
Investigation of milk proteins binding to the oral mucosa
(2013-11-01)High protein dairy beverages are considered to be mouth drying. The drying sensation may be due to the product protein content; however the mechanism of this mouth drying is uncertain. This study investigated the potential ... -
Investigation of molecular mechanisms associated with fungicide sensitivity in Irish Pyrenopeziza brassicae populations
(2020-02-25)Light leaf spot is amongst the most damaging diseases of oilseed rape and a significant threat to Irish crops. Unfortunately, the epidemiology of Pyrenopeziza brassicae, the agent causing this disease, remains poorly ... -
An investigation of national trends in job satisfaction in Britain and Germany
(2005)We investigate whether trends in job satisfaction, which arguably signal trends in worker well-being, can be explained by changes in the quality of jobs. There were falls in job satisfaction in both Britain and Germany. ... -
Investigation of nicotine binding to THP-1 cells : evidence for a non-cholinergic binding site
(2001)Nicotine is known to modulate immune function, but reports have produced conflicting evidence as to whether nicotinic acetylcholine (nACh) receptors are responsible for these effects. This study was designed to examine the ... -
Investigation of Optimal Cue to Instruction for Pelvic Floor Muscle Contraction in Women Using Ultrasound Imaging
(University of Hertfordshire, 2014-06-18)Background Pelvic floor muscle (PFM) training is recommended as first line conservative management for stress urinary incontinence (SUI). The fundamental issue of how to optimally contract the PFM has not previously been ... -
Investigation of optimal cues to instruction for pelvic floor muscle contraction : A pilot study using 2D ultrasound imaging in pre-menopausal, nulliparous, continent women
(2011)Aims: Optimal urethrovesical positioning (UVP) may be important for continence. Pelvic floor muscle contraction (PFMC) influences UVP. PFMC instruction cues vary and often encourage anterior PFM recruitment that may result ... -
Investigation of proton-induced reactions on Germanium isotopes
(2008-01)The cross sections of the (70)Ge(p,gamma)(71)As and (76)Ge(p, n)(76)As reactions have been measured in the energy range relevant for the astrophysical p-process (1.6-4.4 MeV). The proton beam was provided by the Van de ... -
Investigation of self-organising dynamic neural tree networks
(University of Hertfordshire, 1995)Self Organising Dynamic Neural Tree Networks (DNTNs) provide hierarchical clustering that is potentially applicable to large data sets. Two DNTN models have been produced by Racz and Klotz and Li et al. Four DNTN variants ... -
Investigation of skin permeation using ATR-FTIR spectroscopic imaging and multivariate target factor analysis
(2010-10)ATR-FTIR spectroscopic imaging permeation experiments of a model formulation across stratum corneum (SC) were conducted to acquire further understanding of the mechanism of drug permeation. Quantitative iterative target ... -
An investigation of stability of a control surface with structural nonlinearities in supersonic flow using Zubov's method
(2009-08-07)It is well known that the presence of nonlinearities may significantly affect the aeroelastic response of an aerospace vehicle structure. In this paper, the aeroelastic behaviour at high Mach numbers of an all-moving control ... -
Investigation of the association and flexibility of cationic lipidic peptide dendrons by NMR spectroscopy
(2005-01-01)The cationic peptide dendrons synthesized and studied are lower generation polylysine-based partial dendrimers with or without lipid chains in the core. The dendrons with lipidic chains can be utilized as protein and ... -
An Investigation of the Degree of Market Power in the Greek Manufacturing and Service Industries
(2017-12-31)This paper investigates the degree of market power in the Greek manufacturing and service industries over the period 1970–2007. The markup model developed by Hall (1988) and Roeger (1995) is taken into consideration where ... -
