Investment performance analysis of industrial products: Case of an effluent processing facility at a chemical company (2016)
Journal Article
This paper proposes an approach to a multi-criteria investment performance analysis of industrial products. Manufacturers must determine the necessary and sufficient specification of products they use. Such an analysis, however, involves a broad ra...

The lived experience of working with female patients in a high secure hospital (2016)
Journal Article
Women’s secure hospitals are often considered to be stressful and demanding places to work, with these environments characterised as challenging and violent. The staff experience of working in this environment is however not well represented in the l... Read More about The lived experience of working with female patients in a high secure hospital.
The impact of detergents on the tissue decellularization process: a ToF-SIMS study (2016)
Journal Article
Biologic scaffolds are derived from mammalian tissues, which must be decellularized to remove cellular antigens that would otherwise incite an adverse immune response. Although widely used clinically, the optimum balance between cell removal and the... Read More about The impact of detergents on the tissue decellularization process: a ToF-SIMS study.
Sintered-silver bonding of high-temperature piezoelectric ceramic sensors (2016)
Journal Article
Silver sintering is used to bond five components together, in order to form a piezoelectric sensor. A description is provided of the preparation of these components, and of the manufacturing steps, which are carried out at a low temperature (280 °C).... Read More about Sintered-silver bonding of high-temperature piezoelectric ceramic sensors.
Reasoning about the executability of goal-plan trees (2016)
Journal Article
User supplied domain control knowledge in the form of hierarchically structured agent plans is at the heart of a number of approaches to reasoning about action. This knowledge encodes the “standard operating procedures” of an agent for responding to... Read More about Reasoning about the executability of goal-plan trees.
A geometric approach to visualization of variability in functional data (2016)
Journal Article
We propose a new method for the construction and visualization of boxplot-type displays for functional data. We use a recent functional data analysis framework, based on a representation of functions called square-root slope functions, to decompose o...

From Big data to Smart Data with the K-Nearest Neighbours algorithm (2016)
Conference Proceeding
The k-nearest neighbours algorithm is one of the most widely used data mining models because of its simplicity and accurate results. However, when it comes to deal with big datasets, with potentially noisy and missing information, this technique beco...

Bidirectional effects of cannabidiol on contextual fear memory extinction (2016)
Journal Article
Cannabidiol (CBD) has been established to have both acute and long-lasting effects to reduce fear memory expression. The long-lasting impact might be mediated by an enhancement of memory extinction or an impairment of memory reconsolidation. Here, we...

Cyclotrimerisation of isocyanates catalysed by low-coordinate Mn(II) and Fe(II) m-terphenyl complexes (2016)
Journal Article
Two- and three-coordinate m-terphenyl complexes of manganese and iron are efficient catalysts for the selective cyclotrimerisation of primary aliphatic isocyanates affording isocyanurates in short reaction times and under mild conditions.
Lithuania in the euro area: monetary transmission and macroprudential policies (2016)
Journal Article
In this paper, we develop a two-country monetary union new Keynesian general equilibrium model with housing and collateral constraints, to be calibrated for Lithuania and the rest of the euro area. Within this setting, and following the recent entran... Read More about Lithuania in the euro area: monetary transmission and macroprudential policies.
Views on unwanted effects of leave-on emollients and experiences surrounding their incidence (2016)
Journal Article
Background: The mainstay treatment for eczema is leave-on emollients. The aim of this study was to find out more about unwanted effects that have been reported with their use, as little is known due to a lack of formal reporting. Aims: To gain a g... Read More about Views on unwanted effects of leave-on emollients and experiences surrounding their incidence.
Formation mechanism of electrical discharge TiC-Fe composite coatings (2016)
Journal Article
Comparison of electric discharge (ED) processed single deposit and continuum TiC-Fe cermet coatings, formed from a sacrificial powder metallurgy TiC tool electrode at negative polarity, on 304 stainless steel, provided insight into the ED coating (ED...

Prethermalization from a low-density Holstein-Primakoff expansion (2016)
Journal Article
We consider the non-equilibrium dynamics arising after a quench of the transverse magnetic field of a quantum Ising chain, together with the sudden switch-on of a long-range interaction term. The dynamics after the quantum quench is mapped onto a ful... Read More about Prethermalization from a low-density Holstein-Primakoff expansion.
Professional helping as negotiation in motion: social work as work on the move (2016)
Journal Article
The delivery of welfare and professional helping, such as in medicine, nursing and social work is largely treated as though it is achieved through static and immobile practices. Research has been dominated by a focus on the sedentary as studies have... Read More about Professional helping as negotiation in motion: social work as work on the move.
Effects of 4 multitargeted receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors on regional hemodynamics in conscious, freely moving rats (2016)
Journal Article
VEGF inhibitors, including receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors, are used as adjunct therapies in a number of cancer treatments. An emerging issue with these drugs is that most cause hypertension. To gain insight into the physiological mechanisms invo... Read More about Effects of 4 multitargeted receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors on regional hemodynamics in conscious, freely moving rats.
Participatory worlds: models of collaborative textual production beyond the entertainment industry (2016)
Journal Article
Throughout history, participation has been a term closely related to transgression and the democratisation and the balance of the inequalities in society. Participation has continued being a major concept in the digital age where 'participatory cultu...
