Alternative metrics for design decisions based on separating aleatory and epistemic probabilistic uncertainties
(2022)There is still much philosophical debate about whether a frequentist or subjective view of probability should be adopted. Some uncertainties (typically aleatory uncertainties) are naturally modelled using a frequentist ... -
Amplitude-mode dynamics of polariton condensates
(2011)We study the stability of collective amplitude excitations in nonequilibrium polariton condensates. These excitations correspond to renormalized upper polaritons and to the collective amplitude modes of atomic gases and ... -
Band gap engineering of In2O3 by alloying with Tl2O3
(2013)Efficient modulation of the bandgap of In 2 O 3 will open up a route to improved electronic properties. We demonstrate using ab initio calculations that Tl incorporation into In 2 O 3 reduces the band gap and ... -
Build automation and runtime abstraction for partial reconfiguration on Xilinx Zynq Ultrascale+
(2020)Partial reconfiguration (PR) is fundamental to building adaptive systems on modern FPGA SoCs, where hardware can be adapted dynamically at runtime. Vendor supported reconfiguration is performance ... -
Co-existing fluid and silicate inclusions in mantle diamond
(2006)We document the compositions of co-existing silicate macro-inclusions and fluid micro-inclusions in the fibrous coats of eight coated diamonds from the Panda kimberlite (Canada). The mineral inclusions in the diamond coats ... -
Combining BMP-6, TGF-β3 and hydrostatic pressure stimulation enhances the functional development of cartilage tissues engineered using human infrapatellar fat pad derived stem cells
(2013)The objective of this study was to identify a combination of growth factors that could be used with hydrostatic pressure (HP) stimulation to enhance the functional development of cartilaginous grafts engineered using human ... -
Computational testing of trivalent dopants in CeO2 for improved high-kappa dielectric behaviour
(2013)Due to its high dielectric constant, large band gap, and very small lattice mismatch with Si, CeO 2 has been proposed as a promising candidate high- k dielectric material. The performance of CeO 2 as a dielectric material, ... -
Conformational effects in sugar ions: spectroscopic investigations in the gas phase and in solution
(2012)We present direct investigations of the conformational preferences of sugars with a positively charged substituent at their anomeric centre, C-1, which display in solution, a preference for an equatorial conformation—an ... -
Demonstration and interpretation of "scutoid" cells formed in a quasi-2D soap froth
(2018)Recently a novel type of epithelial cell has been discovered and dubbed the ‘scutoid’. It is induced by curvature of the bounding surfaces. We show by simulations and experiments that such cells are to be found in a dry ... -
Energy-band alignment of II-VI/Zn3P2 heterojunctions from x-ray photoemission spectroscopy
(2013)The energy-band alignments for zb-ZnSe(001)/ a -Zn 3 P 2 (001), w-CdS(0001)/ a -Zn 3 P 2 (001), and w-ZnO(0001)/ a -Zn 3 P 2 (001) heterojunctions have been determined using high-resolution x-ray photoelectron ... -

Huisgen-based conjugation of water-soluble porphyrins to deprotected sugars: Towards mild strategies for the labelling of glycans
(2014)Fully deprotected alkynyl-functionalised mono- and oligosaccharides undergo CuAAC-based conjugation with water-soluble porphyrin azides in aqueous environments. The mild reaction conditions are fully compatible with the ... -
Micro-Raman and spreading resistance analysis on bevelled implanted germanium for layer transfer applications
(2011)Raman and spreading resistance profiling have been used to analyze defects in germanium caused by hydrogen and helium implants, of typical fluences used in layer transfer applications. Beveling has been used to facilitate ... -
Occupation matrix control of d- and f-electron localisations using DFT + U.
(2014)The use of a density functional theory methodology with on-site corrections (DFT + U ) has been repeatedly shown to give an improved description of localised d and f states over those predicted with a standard DFT ... -
On Boundaries Finding the Essence of the Right to the Protection of Personal Data
(Hart Publishing, 2018)In this contribution, I identify the essence of the right to the protection of personal data as understood in EU law. The essence is a fundamental step in defining the permissible limitations of the right; it works as a ...
