Improved prospects for the detection of new Large Magellanic Cloud planetary nebulae
(2011)The LargeMagellanic Cloud (LMC) contains the nearest large extragalactic population of planetary nebulae (PNe). A shallow viewing angle and low interstellar reddening towards the LMC potentially means a larger, more complete ... -
An improved quantification of HD 147379 b
(2018-02-05)We reanalyze the CARMENES and HIRES/KECK radial velocity data for HD 147379, and also analyze the SOPHIE data using the Agatha software in combination with MCMC posterior sampling. The analysis confirms the existence of ... -
Improved singlet oxygen generation in Rhenium(I) complexes functionalized with a pyridinyl selenoether ligand
(2022-01-01)The synthesis, characterization, electrochemical and photophysical properties of three novel polypyridine rhenium(I) complexes coordinated to an organoselenide ligand, 4-(phenylseleno)-pyridine (PhSepy), and structurally ... -
An improved three-step search block-matching algorithm for low bit-rate video coding applications

Improved understanding of novel sources of resistance against the light leaf spot pathogen, Pyrenopeziza brassicae
(The Association of Applied Biologists, 2017-02-28)In this work, the endophytic growth phase of the light leaf spot pathogen Pyrenopeziza brassicae in selected lines from a doubled haploid (DH) population of oilseed rape, which is known to segregate for resistance against ... -
Improved understanding of the vertical distribution of simulated dust distribution in the Saharan Air Layer during the ICE-D field campaign with the WRF-CHEM model
(2016-01-11)During the period of 4-27 August of 2015, the UK Ice in dust clouds experiment will take place in Cape Verde. UK_ICE-D will characterize aerosol particles and their ability to act as ice nuclei (IN) and cloud condensation ... -
Improvement in the transition of a student from secondary or further education into science higher education : Is there a mismatch between staff and students' expectations as to what is required to study science?
(2009)The aim this project is to consider if we can improve the transition of a student from secondary or further education into science higher education by analysing whether there is a mismatch between staff and students’ ... -

Improvement of cavitation erosion resistance of structural metals by alternating magnetic field treatment
(2023-01-21)Results of cavitation erosion tests for EN8 steel, nickel-aluminium bronze (NAB), 70/30 brass and aluminium alloy AA2014-T6 following alternating magnetic field (AMF) treatment are presented. These alloys were selected ... -
Improvement of cyclic fatigue life of metallic materials and welded joints by treatment by pulsed electric current
(2010)The paper presents experimental data on improvement of cyclic fatigue life of stainless steel and aluminium alloy samples as a result of treatment based on direct passage of electric current through the material, as well ... -
Improvement of frequency standards with quantum entanglement
(1997)The optimal precision of frequency measurements in the presence of decoherence is discussed. We analyse different preparations of n two-level systems as well as different measurements procedures. We show that standard ... -
Improvement of newman's model on fatigue crack closure
(2006-01-01)Newman had brought his crack closure model. It is done well in simple closure model, but it is not exactitude when there is a complex elastic-plastic region in crack front and has a variety stress-ratio. The paper improved ... -
Improvement of the wear resistance of EN8 steel by application of alternating magnetic field treatment
(2021-11-15)In the present paper, the tribological properties of untreated and magnetically treated EN8 medium-carbon steel were studied. Tribological tests were performed using a pin-on-disc friction and wear tester. The alternating ... -
Improvement of the wear resistance of nickel-aluminium bronze and 2014-T6 aluminium alloy by application of alternating magnetic field treatment
(2021-09-15)The present work has used an alternating magnetic field treatment at ambient temperature to improve the wear resistance of nickel-aluminium bronze and aluminium alloy 2014-T6. Pin-on-disc wear tests under lubricating ... -
Improvements in physiological and nutritional developments of tomato cultivars grown at high zinc by foliar application of phosphorus and iron
(2002)Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) cvs. "Blizzard", "Liberto", and "Calypso" were grown hydroponically in a controlled temperature (C.T.) room for five weeks. The objective was to investigate the effectiveness of foliar-applied ... -
Improvements Relating to Facial Recognition
(European Patent Office, 2019-01-16)A method of identifying at least one face region having a predominant contribution to face recognition, comprising (i) obtaining a set of face images, (ii) using a face-recognition model to predict a non-occluded identity ... -
Improving access or denying choice?
(2007)This paper addresses the ‘Improving Access to Psychological Therapies’ programme and the reports on which it is based. It is suggested that the evidence base favouring particular psychological therapies is not as clear as ... -
Improving Building Energy Efficiency through Measurement of Building Physics Properties Using Dynamic Heating Tests
(2019-04-16)Buildings contribute to nearly 30% of global carbon dioxide emissions, making a significant impact on climate change. Despite advanced design methods, such as those based on dynamic simulation tools, a significant discrepancy ... -
