Stuart; Burris, Ethan R.; Claeys, Johannes; Detert, James R.; Dragoni, Lisa; Giessner, Steffen R.; Kniffin, Kevin M.; Kolditz, Thomas; Petriglieri, Gianpiero; Pettit, Nathan C.; Sitkin, Sim B.; Van Quaquebeke, Niels; Vongswasdi, Pisitta (SAGE, 2022)

Academics have lamented that practitioners do not always adopt scientific evidence in practice, yet while academics preach evidence-based management (EBM), they do not always practice it. This paper extends prior literature ...
Warning against empowered women in France: Eugène Delacroix’s Medea about to kill Her children

Smith, Shamra (Department of Sociology, University of Limerick, 2012-04)

Nineteenth-century France was a time of increasing freedom for women, though men sought to discourage this autonomy through criticism in the form of art. Caricatures depicted women abandoning their household duties and ...
Was defeat inevitable for Cumann na nGaedheal in the 1932 general election?

Hanamy, John (University of Limerick, 2013)

This thesis looks at the election that terminated the first government of the Irish Free State, and effectively the career of the party that formed that government. An analysis of the policies of Cumann na nGaedheal in ...
Watch, imagine, and perform? The effect of motor simulation interventions on sensorimotor task performance

McNeill, Eoghan (University of Limerick, 2021)

The effect that motor simulation (MS) conditions like motor imagery (MI) and action observation (AO) can have on sensorimotor task performance has garnered significant research interest over the past fifty years. ...
Water dispersible semiconductor nanorod assemblies via a facile phase transfer and their application as fluorescent biomarkers.

Sanyal, Ambarish; Bala, Tanushree; Ahmed, Shafaat; Singh, Ajay; Piterina, Anna Valentinova; McGloughlin, Timothy M.; Laffir, Fathima R.; Ryan, Kevin M. (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2009)

We demonstrate the formation of water dispersed nanorod assemblies by phase transfer of semiconductor (CdS, CdSe, CdTe) nanorods from the organic to the aqueous using pluronic triblock copolymers. On phase transfer, the ...
Water-equivalent fiber radiation dosimeter with two scintillating materials

Qin, Zhuang; Hu, Yaosheng; Ma, Yu; Lin, Wei; Luo, Xianping; Zhao, Wenhui; Sun, Weimin; Zhang, Daxin; Chen, Ziyin; Wang, Boran; Lewis, Elfed (2016)

An inorganic scintillating material plastic optical fiber (POF) dosimeter for measuring ionizing radiation during radiotherapy applications is reported. It is necessary that an ideal dosimeter exhibits many desirable ...
A water-stable functionalized NiCo-LDH/MOF nanocomposite: green synthesis, characterization, and its environmental application for heavy metals adsorption

Soltani, Roozbeh; Pelalak, Rasool; Pishnamazi, Mahboubeh; Marjani, Azam; Shirazian, Saeed (Elsevier, 2021)

Removal of toxic heavy metals from aquatic environments has become a major concern due to environmental problems and the potential hazards and risks posed by them. Nowadays, the adsorption method as one of the most effective ...
Water; recovery, reclamation and recycling within the Irish dairy industry

O'Connor, Elaine (University of Limerick, 2020)

Since the abolition of EU Milk quotas in April 2015, milk production in Ireland has grown by 60% more than anticipated. Dairy processing requires a significant hydraulic demand, with approximately 2.5 m3 of water required ...
WATERMARK: Between the archive and the river

NicGhabhann, Niamh (University of Limerick, 2014)

This essay reflects on the process of curating WATERMARK, an exhibition celebrating 20 years of the Irish World Academy at the University of Limerick. It considers the work of artists David Lilburn, Aaron Lawless and Fiona ...
Wavelet-based transforms as a means of signal separation

Quinn, Declan; Walker, Jacqueline (2008)

The goal of this paper is to facilitate the use of waveletbased transforms in BSS (and, more generally, ICA) algorithms. We investigate the performance of transforms such as the ContinuousWavelet Transform, Discrete ...
Waves in Guinness

Robinson, Marguerite; Fowler, Andrew C.; Alexander, A.J.; O'Brien, Stephen B.G. (American Institute of Physics, 2008)

We describe a simple model of a bubbly two-phase flow which is able to explain why waves propagate downward when a pint of Guinness is poured, and also how the waves are generated. Our theory involves a physically based ...
“WBC over DVB-H” testbed design, development and results

Ji, Zhanlin; Ganchev, Ivan; Ó'Droma, Máirtín (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2010)

The wireless billboard channels (WBCs) are integral part of the ubiquitous consumer wireless world (UCWW)—a wireless next generation network proposal. The WBCs are used by the service providers to broadcast advertisements ...
We had to do intelligent thinking during recent PE: students' and teachers' experiences of assessment for learning in post-primary physical education

MacPhail, Ann; Halbert, John (Taylor and Francis, 2010)

This study arose in response to a perceived need for additional teacher support for assessment in physical education and the limited focus in physical education pedagogy literature on the impact of Assessment for Learning ...
“We shouldn’t waste a good crisis”: the lived experience of working on the frontline through the first surge (and beyond) of COVID-19 in the UK and Ireland

Kinsella, Elaine Louise; Hughes, Samantha; Lemon, Sarah; Stonebridge, Natasha; Sumner, Rachel C. (Routledge Taylor & Francis, 2021)

Objective: Frontline workers have shown extraordinary resilience and sustained efforts since the outbreak of COVID-19. The present study used semi-structured interviews with 38 frontline workers in the UK and Ireland ...
"We Took Pictures”: Children’s meaning-making in physical education

Ní Chróinín, Déirdre; Coulter, Maura; Parker, Melissa (Human Kinetics, 2020)

Purpose: Studying learning in primary physical education is complex and largely practical and embodied; not only involving the child, but also closely linking the lesson context. The aim of this paper is to understand ...
Weak percolation on multiplex networks

Baxter, Gareth J.; Dorogovtsev, Sergey N.; Mendes, José F.F.; Cellai, Davide (Americann Physical Society, 2014)

Bootstrap percolation is a simple but nontrivial model. It has applications in many areas of science and has been explored on random networks for several decades. In single-layer (simplex) networks, it has been recently ...
Weakening the Dolev-Yao model through probability

Bresciani, Riccardo; Butterfield, Andrew (Association for Computing Machinery, 2009)

The Dolev-Yao model has been widely used in protocol verificaion and has been implemented in many protocol verifiers. There are strong assumptions underlying this model, such as perfect cryptography: the aim of the ...
Wear of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) in total knee prostheses: a review of key influences

McGloughlin, Timothy M.; Kavanagh, A.G. (Institute of Mechanical Engineers, 2000)

The formation and development of wear is now widely accepted as one of the major concerns in the long-term survivorship of contemporary knee prostheses in vivo. This review examines the role of surface topography, third-body ...
