The initial-final mass relationship from white dwarfs in common proper motion pairs
(2008-01)Context. The initial-final mass relationship of white dwarfs, which is poorly constrained, is of paramount importance for different aspects of modern astrophysics. From an observational perspective, most of the studies up ... -
The initial-final mass relationship of white dwarfs in common proper motion pairs
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2007)A promising approach to decrease the uncertainties in the initial-final mass relationship, which is still poorly constrained, is to study white dwarfs for which external constraints are available, for instance, white dwarfs ... -
The initial-final mass relationship of white dwarfs revisited: effect on the luminosity function and mass distribution
(2008-07-11)The initial-final mass relationship connects the mass of a white dwarf with the mass of its progenitor in the main sequence. Although this function is of fundamental importance to several fields in modern astrophysics, it ... -
Initiating haemodialysis twice-weekly as part of an incremental programme may protect residual kidney function
(2018-10-23)Background: Initiating twice-weekly haemodialysis (2×HD) in patients who retain significant residual kidney function (RKF) may have benefits. We aimed to determine differences between patients initiated on twice- and ... -
Injecting eye-drops : a mini-review on the non-clinical misuse of Tropicamide
(2015-07)The intravenous (IV) injection of tropicamide for non-clinical purposes is a new and widespread drug trend. The aim of this study is to provide the first literature review on the topic -
Inkjet Printing of Pharmaceuticals
(2023-11-10)Inkjet printing (IJP) is an additive manufacturing process that selectively deposits ink materials, layer-by-layer, to create 3D objects or 2D patterns with precise control over their structure and composition. This ... -

Innovation for a circular economy : exploring the adoption of PSS by UK companies in the baby products sector
(University of Southern Denmark, 2015-08-29)Several authors have commented on the relatively slow rate at which Product Service Systems (PSS) have been adopted in B2B networks. Despite some prominent examples, such as the provision of integrated lighting systems to ... -
Innovation for a Circular Economy : Exploring the Product Service Systems Concept
(International Society for Professional Innovation Management (ISPIM), 2013-06-16)This paper explores the potential implementation of Product Service Systems (PSS) - a sustainable business model based on integrated products and services, and driven by innovation. The concept implies a holistic approach ... -
‘Innovation in the Arts in Therapy’: A Special Issue
(2023-05-09)The editorial overview provides the background and rationale for this Special Issue. Collaboration, innovation and integration are themes that are introduced and developed to provide the context in which the contributors ... -
Innovation Management: a subjective process
(2007)This research article explores the role of subjectivity in innovation management, by discussing the important impact that group symbolic interpretation has on their interpretative systems, and the relationship this has on ... -
Innovation Shorts
(Screen South, 2012)The ‘Innovation Shorts’ programme is a European multi agency project led by VERL (Scotland), Screen South (England) and Film Fyn (Denmark). The programme offers filmmakers the opportunity to produce and disseminate quality ... -
Innovations in MLE training at the University of Hertfordshire
(2010)In the past StudyNet training at the University of Hertfordshire has consisted of a teacher standing at the front of a classroom demonstrating the features of the system with opportunities for participants to try the ... -

Innovative pedagogies: 'It's all about the shoes' - exploring the perspectives of others and ourselves in teacher education
(2016-01-08)This pedagogical approach aims to facilitate the development of professional empathy through exploring different perspectives. Our ‘walking in different shoes’ approach is drawn from years of experience and is appropriate ... -
Input driven constraints on plurals in English noun-noun compounds
(2003)Native English speakers include irregular plurals in English noun-noun compounds (e.g. mice chaser) more frequently than regular plurals (e.g. *rats chaser) (Gordon, 1985). This dissociation in inflectional morphology has ... -
Input efficiency profiling: an application to airlines
(1997)Data envelopment analysis (DEA) can produce results which lack discrimination, one consequence of this is that a large proportion of decision-making units (DMUs) appear to be efficient. In addition, because it is a radial ... -
Input window size and neural network predictors
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2000)Neural network approaches to time series prediction are briefly discussed, and the need to specify an appropriately sized input window identified. Relevant theoretical results from dynamic systems theory are briefly ...
