Characterization of separated pig manure composted with a variety of bulking agents at low initial C/N ratios
(2011)
The aim of this study was to investigate the composting of separated pig manure solids with or without a variety of bulking agents at a low initial C/N ratio (12.5-23.3). Compost stability was investigated using an oxygen ...
On the equivariant K-homology of PSL_2 of the imaginary quadratic integers
(Association des Annales de l'Institut Fourier, 2016-09)
We establish formulae for the part due to torsion of the equivariant $K$-homology of all the Bianchi groups (PSL$_2$ of the imaginary quadratic integers), in terms of elementary number-theoretic quantities. To achieve this, ...
Interaction of nanoparticles with ideal liquid-liquid interfaces
(2009)
Using molecular simulations the interaction between a noncharged nanoparticle and an ideal liquid-liquid interface is studied. The free energy profile as function of nanoparticle-interface separation is determined using ...
Algorithms, social media and mental health
(Society for Computers and Law, 2016-09-28)
Algorithmic identification of mental health characteristics is feasible on the basis of easily available information on social media. Such information can be extracted by algorithmic methods from publicly available ...
A three-scale finite element investigation into the effects of tissue mineralisation and lamellar organisation in human cortical and trabecular bone
(Elsevier, 2012-03-20)
Bone is an exceptional material that is lightweight for efficient movement but also exhibits excellent strength and stiffness imparted by a composite material of organic proteins and mineral crystals that are intricately ...
Classification of narcotics in solid mixtures using principal component analysis and Raman spectroscopy
(ASTM International, 2002-03-01)
Eighty-five solid samples consisting of illegal narcotics diluted with several different materials were analyzed by near-infrared (785 nm excitation) Raman spectroscopy. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was employed to ...
The Discovery of Phocaean Red Slip Ware (PRSW) Form 3 and Bii ware (LR1 amphorae) on sites in Ireland - an analysis within a broader framework
(Royal Irish Academy, 2010-04-29)
Phocaean Red Slip Ware and Bii amphorae sherds have been identified, by
the present author, at the site of Collierstown 1, County Meath. One of the
advantages of discovering Phocaean Red Slip Ware Form 3 on sites in ...
The mod 2 cohomology rings of SL2 of the imaginary quadratic integers
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2015-09-28)
We establish general dimension formulae for the second page of the equivariant spectral sequence of the action of the SL2 groups over imaginary quadratic integers on their associated symmetric space. By way of doing this, ...
A high-pressure rapid compression machine study of n-propylbenzene ignition
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2013-08-28)
This study presents new ignition delay data measured in a rapid compression machine over a wide range temperature, pressure and fuel/air ratio. This data is an extension of that measured previously (D. Darcy, C.J. Tobin, ...
An experimental and modeling study of the shock tube ignition of a mixture of n-heptane and n-propylbenzene as a surrogate for a large alkyl benzene
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2012-07-11)
Alkyl aromatics are an important chemical class in gasoline, jet and diesel fuels. In the present work, an n-propylbenzene and n-heptane mixture is studied as a possible surrogate for large alkyl benzenes contained in ...
