• Surface plasmon propagation enhancement via bowtie antenna incorporation in au-mica block waveguides 

  Pita, Isabel A.; Kumbham, Mahendar; Schmidt, Michael; Gleeson, Matthew; Ryan, Kevin M.; Silien, Christophe; Liu, Ning (Optical Society of America, 2018)

  The optimum geometry for waveguide propagation was determined by comparing bowtie and semicircle antenna cuts to a standard plain waveguide with a 635 nm laser. The results of both experimental data and COMSOL simulations ...
• Modelling drug release from polymer-free coronary stents with microporous surfaces 

  Voa, Tuoi T.N.; Morganb, Sarah; McCormick, Christopher; McGinty, Sean; McKeed, Sean; Meere, Martin (Elsevier, 2018)

  Traditional coronary drug-eluting stents (DES) are made from metal and are coated with a permanent polymer film containing an anti-proliferative drug. Subsequent to stent deployment in a diseased coronary artery, the drug ...
• Ariadne: Topology aware adaptive security for cyber-physical systems 

  Tsigkanos, Christos; Pasquale, Liliana; Ghezziy, Carlo; Nuseibeh, Bashar (IEEE Computer Society, 2015)

  This paper presents Ariadne, a tool for engineering topology aware adaptive security for cyber-physical systems. It allows security software engineers to model security requirements together with the topology of the ...
• Understanding the thermal and dielectric response of organosolv and modified kraft lignin as a carbon fibre precursor 

  Culebras, Mario; Sanchis, Maria J.; Beaucamp, Anne; Carsí, Marta; Kandola, Baljinder K.; Horrocks, A.R.; Panzettie, Gianmarco; Birkinshaw, Colin; Collins, Maurice N. (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2018)

  Understanding the thermal behaviour of lignin is crucial in order to realise its valorisation as an engineering polymer. Two hardwood lignins, organosolv (OSL) and chemically modified kraft lignin (ML) have been chosen to ...
• Underwater manipulators: a review 

  Sivčev, Satja; Coleman, Joseph; Omerdić, Edin; Dooly, Gerard; Toal, Daniel (Elsevier, 2018)

  This paper describes the state-of-the art in the area of underwater robot manipulator systems. A brief introduction is given on the use of manipulators in various offshore industries for different subsea intervention a ...
