Physical Limitation of Range-Domain Secrecy Using Frequency Diverse Arrays
(2020)In this paper, the concept and recent development of exploiting frequency diverse array (FDA) and its variants for the physical-layer wireless security have been revisited and carefully examined. Following rigorous analytical ... -
Picosecond infrared probing of the vibrational spectra of transients formed upon UV excitation of stacked G-tetrad structures
(2007)The photophysical properties of stacked G-tetrads in diverse systems, including concentrated solutions of 59-guanosine monophosphate (59-GMP), polyguanylic acid (poly(G)) and the G-rich oligodeoxynucleotide sequence ... -
Plasma-Assisted Simultaneous Reduction and Nitrogen Doping of Graphene Oxide Nanosheets
(2013)An environmentally benign and scalable route for the production of gram scale quantities of nitrogen-doped graphene using a downstream microwave plasma source is reported. Simultaneous reduction and doping of graphene oxide ... -
Plasticity of the Right-Lateralized Cognitive Reserve Network in Ageing
(2018)Cognitive reserve (CR) is the phenomenon where older adults with more cognitively stimulating environments show less age-related cognitive decline. The right-lateralized fronto-parietal network has been proposed to ... -
Policies for active ageing and their family-related assumptions and consequences
(Oxford University Press, 2022)Active ageing has become the dominant paradigm governing the direction of public policies concerning older people in the Western world. There are many definitions of active ageing, but the central features of its approach ... -
Policy Coherence for Development (PCD): The State of Play in Ireland
(Institute for International Integration Studies, 2009)This report is the first systematic assessment of policy coherence for development (PCD) across Irish Government departments. Our objectives were as follows: ? To create an inventory of policy areas where Irish government ... -
Policy implementation and financial incentives for nurses in South Africa: a case study on the occupation specific dispensation
(2013)Background: In 2007, the South African government introduced the occupation-specific dispensation (OSD), a financial incentive strategy, to attract, motivate, and retain health professionals in the public sector. Implementation ... -
Polymer-Stabilized Elemental Boron Nanoparticles for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy: Initial Irradiation Experiments
(2022)Sufficient boron-10 isotope (10B) accumulation by tumor cells is one of the main requirements for successful boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT). The inability of the clinically registered 10B-containing borophenylalanine ... -
The Potential for Segmentation of the Retail Market for Electricity in Ireland
(ESRI, 2012-04-26)We estimate the gross margin that is earned from the supply of electricity to households in Ireland. Using half hourly electricity demand data, the system marginal price (also called the wholesale price) and the retail ... -
The potential interruptive effect of tinnitus-related distress on attention.
(2020)The mechanism through which tinnitus affects attention is unclear. This study examines whether distress mediates the relationship(s) between tinnitus and sustained, selective and executive attentions as well as response ... -
The Power of Penitence: Penitent Women and the Friars in Medieval Florence
(Cork University Press, 2023)In this essay I propose to investigate the world of female mendicant piety through some of the imagery produced in mendicant churches or that which can be reliably connected to mendicant piety and to women, either in the ... -
A prediction of cell differentiation and proliferation within a collagen-glycosaminoglycan scaffold subjected to mechanical strain and perfusive fluid flow.
(2010)Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) differentiation can be influenced by biophysical stimuli imparted by the host scaffold. Yet, causal relationships linking scaffold strain magnitudes and inlet fluid velocities to specific cell ... -
Preliminary Evidence for Correlation Between PASAT Performance and P3a and P3b amplitudes in progressive multiple sclerosis.
(2010)Background. The no-go P3a event-related potential (ERP) is a measure of attentional engagement and the P3b is a measure of context updating. The aim of this study was to compare ERP topographies 1) to Paced Auditory ... -
The presentation of metabolic dysfunction and the relationship with energy output in breast cancer survivors: a cross-sectional study.
(2013)Background Breast cancer prognosis can be adversely influenced by obesity, physical inactivity and metabolic dysfunction. Interventions aimed at improving surrogate markers of breast cancer risk such as insulin resistance ... -
