Representing and Computing Uncertainty in Phonological Reconstruction
(2023)Despite the inherently fuzzy nature of recon- structions in historical linguistics, most schol- ars do not represent their uncertainty when proposing proto-forms. With the increasing success of recently proposed approaches ... -
Printed Text Recognition for Lexical Lists in Chinese-International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) Glossing
(2023)This study presents a dataset serving as a benchmark for the recognition of printed text in lexical lists using Chinese-IPA glossing. The paper provides an overview of the baseline model, transcription model, and PyLaia ... -
Spatial variability of urban forest topsoil properties: towards representative and robust sampling design
(2023)Background: Soil spatial variability is a major concern when deciding how to collect a representative topsoil sample for laboratory analysis. Sampling design to capture site-specific variability is documented in the ... -
Excercising power in the self-management of COPD: A narrative inquiry. Patient and user perspectives
(2023)Objective: To develop an in-depth understanding of how people with COPD exercise power in the self- management of their illness. Methods: This was a narrative inquiry using Foucault’s concepts of power, knowledge and ... -
Important and Difficult Topics in CS2: An Expert Consensus via Delphi Study
(2023)Almost every computer science program contains two semester-long introductory courses, usually named Computer Science 1 (CS1) and Computer Science 2 (CS2). They have been a mandatory element of the ACM Computing Curriculum ... -
Structural damping estimation from live monitoring of a tall modular building
(2023)The damping ratio is a key indicator of an individual structure's susceptibility to dynamic loads, including the level of discomfort experienced by the occupants of a tall building subjected to wind loading. While ... -
Alcohol consumption modulates Candida albicans-induced oral carcinogenesis and progression
(2023)Objectives: This study aimed to determine the impact of low levels of alcohol consumption on the interaction of the oral cavity with Candida albicans, a species that is commonly found at higher levels in the oral cavities ... -
Applying Formal Verification to an Open-Source Real-Time Operating System
(Springer Nature Switzerland, 2023)This paper describes work done using formal methods to verify parts of the RTEMS real-time operating system, as part of an activity sponsored by the European Space Agency to qualify multi-core processors for spaceflight. ... -
Early sedation with Dexmedetomidine in post-operative adult intensive care unit patients: A systematic review.
(2023)Background Delirium is a leading healthcare concern in adult Intensive Care Units (ICU) and has a reported prevalence of up to 80%. Although individual studies report that early sedation with dexmedetomidine in post-operative ... -
Aeroacoustics research in Europe: The CEAS-ASC report on 2022 highlights
(2024)The Council of European Aerospace Societies (CEAS) Aeroacoustics Specialists Committee (ASC) supports and promotes the interests of the scientific and industrial aeroacoustics community on a European scale and European ... -
Hot-lime-mixed hemp concretes
(Springer, 2023)Hemp-lime composites are sustainable, low-carbon, non-loadbearing materials with outstanding thermal properties and high vapour permeability, used in new construction or thermal upgrades. The abundant pores in the ... -
Alkali fusion of bauxite refining residue (red mud-RM) to produce low carbon cements
(2023)This paper creates hydraulic binders using waste and a low energy input. Cements are produced with a bauxite refining residue (red mud-RM), blended with limestone and lime, and fused at temperatures from 600 to 1200 °C. ... -
Appraisal of Alum Sludge Waste for Low-Carbon, Calcium Aluminate Cement Production
(ISBN: 978-989-54499-3-4, 2023)Calcium aluminate cement (CAC) is the most used non-Portland cement, known for its rapid hardening and high thermal resistance. The difficulty in obtaining raw materials, mainly bauxite, has resulted in the current high ... -
Properties of Alkali Activated Materials made with bauxite refining residue (red mud-RM) and blends of RM with fly ash (FA)
(ISBN: 978-989-54499-3-4, 2023)A bauxite refining residue (RM), both alone and blended with FA at 30% and 50%, is activated with alkalis (Na2SiO3 and Na2SiO3/NaOH) to produce geopolymer cements. Alkali-activated materials (AAMs)/geopolymers are a more ... -
