  • RACK1, a multifaceted scaffolding protein: structure and function. 
    Adams, David R.; Ron, Dorit; Kiely, Patrick A. (BioMed Central, 2011)
    The Receptor for Activated C Kinase 1 (RACK1) is a member of the tryptophan-aspartate repeat (WD-repeat) family of proteins and shares significant homology to the β subunit of G-proteins (Gβ). RACK1 adopts a seven-bladed ...
  • Radiation-induced changes in the electrical properties of TiO2 thick films 
    Arshak, Khalil; Korostynska, Olga; Arshak, Arousian; Morris, Deirdre (IEEE Computer Society, 2005)
    The electrical properties of screen-printed TiO2 based thick films were explored in terms of gamma radiation influence. Screen-printed pn-heterojunctions and resistors were exposed to γ- radiation from a 137Cs source ...
  • Radical love: architecture and the efficacy of the new 
    Mullen, Benjamin (School of Architecture, University of Limerick, 2013)
    I would like to offer a brief introduction to this thesis document. The work that follows takes as its staring point the universal theme of love as it could (or should) relate to architecture, historically and presently. ...
  • Rail-to-rail op-amp design incorporating negative miller and miller compensation 
    Zaidi, Muhaned; Grout, Ian; A'ain, Abu Khari (I.J.S.E.I, 2018)
    This paper considers and presents the design of a rail-to-rail input and output CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) two-stage operational amplifier (op-amp). The design uses two capacitance based compensation ...
  • Raman spectroscopy of fingernails: a novel tool for evaluation of bone quality? 
    Cummins, Niamh M.; Day, J.C.C.; Wren, A.W.; Carroll, P.; Murphy, N.; Jakeman, Philip M.; Towler, M.R. (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2010)
    Raman data from human fingernails has been analysed to determine if a relationship exists between spectral features and bone quality. Previous work demonstrated a relationship between the manually determined intensity of ...
  • Random depth access full-field heterodyne low-coherence interferometry utilizing acousto-optic modulation and a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor camera 
    Egan, Patrick; Connelly, Michael J.; Lakestani, Fereydoun; Whelan, Maurice P. (Optical Society of America, 2006)
    With analog scanning, time-domain low-coherence interferometry lacks precise depth information, and optical carrier generation demands a linear scanning speed. Full-field heterodyne low-coherence interferometry that uses ...
  • Ranking the effects of cycle time parameters, shoulder posture and load, on shoulder discomfort in a single experiment using Taguchi methods 
    Browne, Aleksandra; O'Sullivan, Leonard (Cogent OA, 2017)
    The purpose of this study was to use the Taguchi Design of Experiments approach to investigate the effects of five risk factors on ratings of shoulder discomfort in a single study. The development of shoulder MusculoSkeletal ...
  • Rapid GUI development on legacy systems: a runtime model-based solution 
    Song, Hui; Gallagher, Michael; Clarke, Siobhán (Association for Computing Machinery, 2012)
    Graphical User Interface (GUI) is a common feature for modern software systems, while there are still many legacy systems that do not have GUIs, but only provide text and commands for user interaction. In this paper, ...
  • Rapid synthesis and decoration of reduced graphene oxide with gold nanoparticles by thermostable peptides for memory device and photothermal applications 
    Otari, Sachin V; Kumar, Manoj; Anwar, Muhammad Zahid; Thorat, Nanasaheb D.; Patel, Sanjay K.S; Lee, Dongjin; Lee, Jai Hyo; Lee, Jung-Kul; Kang, Yun Chan; Zhang, Liaoyuan (Nature Publishing Group, 2017)
    This article presents novel, rapid, and environmentally benign synthesis method for one-step reduction and decoration of graphene oxide with gold nanoparticles (NAuNPs) by using thermostable antimicrobial nisin peptides ...
  • Rationale, implementation and evaluation of assistive strategies for an active back-support exoskeleton 
    Toxiri, Stefano; Koopman, Axel S.; Lazzaroni, Maria; Ortiz, Jesús; Power, Valerie; de Looze, Michiel P.; O'Sullivan, Leonard; Caldwell, Darwin G. (Frontiers Media, 2018)
    Active exoskeletons are potentially more effective and versatile than passive ones, but designing them poses a number of additional challenges. An important open challenge in the field is associated to the assistive ...
  • Rayleigh-Bénard convection at high Rayleigh number and infinite Prandtl number: asymptotics and numerics 
    Vynnycky, Michael; Masuda, Y (American Institute of Physics, 2013)
    The problem of fast viscous steady Rayleigh-Bénard convection in a rectangular enclosure is revisited using asymptotic and numerical methods. There are two generic cases: in the first, there is zero shear stress at all ...
