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 ... -
Investigation of the dependency of the drivers’ emotional experience on different road types and driving conditions
(2019-08-02)The growing sophistication of technologies and sociological advances are major causes for the dramatic change the automotive sector is currently undergoing. To address changes from a human-centered design perspective an ... -
Investigation of the diurnal pattern of the vertical distribution of pollen in the lower troposphere using LIDAR
(2013)The diurnal pattern of the vertical distribution of biogenic pollen in the lower troposphere was investigated by LIDAR. Meteorological data were taken at the ground. Pollen concentrations were measured at the surface using ... -
Investigation of the Effect of Substitutions on the Electronic and Optical Properties of the Sumanene Molecule
(2024-01-01)Sumanene (C21H12) is the smallest bowl-shaped molecule containing a central benzene ring, which is alternately surrounded by another 3 benzene rings and cyclopentadiene rings. In this study, the effect of various electron ... -
An investigation of the effectiveness of a voluntary sector psychodynamic counselling service
(2000)Clients attending a London voluntary sector counselling centre completed assessments pre- and post-psychodynamic counselling and at follow-up. Although there was a very high attrition rate following initial assessment, ... -
An investigation of the effects of income inequality on financial fragility: Evidence from Organization for Economic Co‐operation and Development countries
(2019-01-01)The main scope of the paper is to investigate the proposition that rising income inequality results in systemic financial instability in developed countries. In particular, 33 OECD (Organization for Economic Co‐operation ... -
Investigation of the Free-Fall Dynamic Behavior of a Rectangular Wing with Variable Center of Mass Location and Variable Moment of Inertia
(2023-05-15)In recent years, the air-drop launch technology of near-space UAVs has attracted much attention. Between downfall from the carrier and the flight control system’s initiation, the UAV presents free-fall movement. This ... -
Investigation of the mode of action of nematode neuropeptides
(1996-03)The neuropeptide AF2 has a complex set of actions on the dorsal muscle strip of Ascaris suum, including a potentiation of the acetylcholine-stimulated muscle contraction. Caffeine at 100 μm and 5 mm inhibited this potentiation, ... -
Investigation of the perceived usefulness of a StudyNet group discussion facility by international students
(2005)Postgraduate international students at UK institutions of higher education often find difficulty dealing with seminar-type discussions. An attempt was made to help students with this by utilising the group discussion ... -
Investigation of the physical properties of spray-dried stabilised lysozyme particles
(2003-09)The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the composition of formulations on the physical properties, including glass-transition temperatures (Tg) and aerodynamic-related characteristics, of spray-dried lysozyme ... -
Investigation of the potential to reduce waste through sampling and spatial analysis of grain bulks
(2021-07-01)Batches of grain are accepted or rejected based on average mycotoxin concentrations in a composite grain sample. Spatial analysis of mycotoxins in two grain bulks was performed to determine the spatial distribution of ... -
