(Elsevier, 2009-02)Empirical rock properties and continuum mechanics provide a basis for defining relationships between a variety of mechanical properties, such as strength, friction angle, Young’s modulus, Poisson’s ratio, on the one hand ...
-
(Elsevier, 2006-05)Existing conceptual growth models for faults in layered sequences suggest that faults first localise in strong, and brittle, layers and are later linked in weak, and ductile, layers. We use the Discrete Element Method (DEM) ...
-
(Emerald Group Publishing, 2011)Many important electronic systems are modelled by discrete-time equations with nonlinearities that are discontinuous and piecewise-linear, often arising as a result of quantization. Approximations based on linearization ...

(Taylor & Francis, 2013)Analysis of the thermal regime created by a geothermal borehole heat exchanger is performed using a closed form radial heat flow equation, a geothermal borehole heat exchanger design tool and a finite element model. ...

(University College Dublin. School of Economics, 2002-02)This paper uses a discrete choice approach to investigate factors influencing starting and quitting smoking, in particular the role of tobacco taxes. Standard probit analysis is applied to both starting and quitting. Tobacco ...

(Elsevier, 1998-12)For slab bridge decks with wide transverse edge cantilevers, the plane grillage analogy is shown to be an inaccurate method of linear elastic analysis due to variations in the vertical position of the neutral axis. The ...

(American Institute of Physics, 2010-09-21)Extreme ultra-violet (EUV) emission spectra from highly charged tin, xenon and tungsten ions have been measured in optically thin high-temperature plasmas produced in the Large Helical Device (LHD) at the National Institute ...
-
(Sciyo, 2010)First investigations on the dynamic response of bridges due to moving loads were motivated by the collapse of the Chester railway bridge in the UK in the middle of the 19th century. This failure made evident the need to ...

(University College Dublin. School of EconomicsUniversity College Dublin. Geary Institute, 2009-07)I show a simple back-of-the-envelope method for calculating marginal effects in binary choice and count data models. The approach suggested here focuses attention on marginal effects at different points in the distribution ...

(Elsevier, 2004-12)This study describes a numerical projection of pre- and post-retrofitted conditions of telecommunication poles subjected to seismic hazards. The absence of explicit guidelines for the rehabilitation of existing poles ...
