JINGLE - IV. Dust, HI gas and metal scaling laws in the local Universe
(2020-06-02)
Scaling laws of dust, H i gas and metal mass with stellar mass, specific star formation rate and metallicity are crucial to our understanding of the buildup of galaxies through their enrichment with metals and dust. In ...
The Physics of Star Cluster Formation and Evolution
(2020-06-02)
Star clusters form in dense, hierarchically collapsing gas clouds. Bulk kinetic energy is transformed to turbulence with stars forming from cores fed by filaments. In the most compact regions, stellar feedback is least ...
3D Characterisation of Dry Powder Inhaler Formulations: Developing X-ray Micro Computed Tomography Approaches
(2020-06)
Carrier-based dry powder inhaler (DPI) formulations need to be accurately characterised for their particle size distributions, surface roughnesses, fines contents and flow properties. Understanding the micro-structure of ...
Structural Dynamic Modelling of a Multi-Storey Shear Frame using Mass and Stiffness Addition
(2020-06-01)
Designers of systems involved in high-speed operation and users of lightweight structures have realised that measurement of stress/strain properties are not sufficient and that dynamic measurement / analysis are necessary ...
Review of Multiaxial Testing for Very High Cycle Fatigue: From ‘Conventional’ to Ultrasonic Machines
(2020-06)
Fatigue is one of the main causes for in service failure of mechanical components and structures. With the development of new materials, such as high strength aluminium or titanium alloys with different microstructures ...
Neuromorphic technology in Europe : Brain-inspired technologies are advancing apace across Europe and are poised to help accelerate the AI revolution
(2020-06)
By taking loose inspiration from the brain, artificial neural network algorithms have made tremendous progress in artificial intelligence. However, to unlock significant gains in terms of novel real-world capabilities, ...
We were in one place, and the ethics committee in another: Experiences of going through the research ethics application process
(2020-06-01)
This study aimed to explore postgraduate students’ lived experiences of managing research ethics committee processes. Whilst there is a wide range of research that explores ethics principles/guidance and committee perspectives ...
Analyzing why Organizations Differ in Board Composition. Evidence from a Large Panel of Greek Manufacturing Firms: Board Composition of Greek Manufacturing Firms
(2020-06-01)
In this paper building upon several theories (agency theory, stakeholder theory and resource dependence theory) and by utilising data from 161 Greek manufacturing companies that were listed in the Athens Stock Exchange on ...
Neurocognitive markers of suicidal ideation in patients with anxiety and mood disorders
(2020-06-01)
Objective: This study aims at identifying associations between cognitive function and suicidal ideation in the sample of patients with anxiety and mood disorders (AMD). Methods: In sum, 186 (age = 39 ± 12.3 years; 142 ...
The development of species-specific antisense peptide nucleic acid method for the treatment and detection of viable Salmonella
(2020-06)
Genotypic based detection methods using specific target sites in the pathogen genome can complement phenotypic identification. We report the development of species-specific antisense peptide nucleic acid (PNA) combined ...
