Factors influencing e-cargo bike mode choice for small businesses
(2023)As a viable alternative to traditional and electric cars and vans, e-cargo bikes have the potential to improve the sustainability of urban logistics operations, particularly for last-mile deliveries. In this study, e-cargo ... -
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 ... -
Integrated transportation and land use regression modelling for nitrogen dioxide mitigation
(2023)The transport sector has been identified as one of the main contributors to nitrogen dioxide (NO2) pollution in Ireland. This research develops an enhanced Wind Sector Land Use Regression (WS-LUR) model to estimate NO2 ... -
Making and agreeing to requests in Old Tibetan
(2023)The verbs གསོལ་ gsol ‘request’ and གནང་ gnaṅ ‘agree, grant', because of their complementary semantics and parallel syntax, provide a convenient window through which to caste light on the two forms of subordinate clauses ... -
Prognostication in advanced cancer by combining actigraphy-derived rest-activity and sleep parameters with routine clinical data: an exploratory machine learning study
(2023)Survival prediction is integral to oncology and palliative care, yet robust prognostic models remain elusive. We assessed the feasibility of combining actigraphy, sleep diary data, and routine clinical parameters to ... -
On the Edge of Chaos: Space and Power in Maria Edgeworth's "The Grateful Negro" (1804)
(Cambridge Unversity Press, 2022)‘The Grateful Negro’ (1804) is one of Maria Edgeworth’s less well-known children’s stories. Set on a Jamaican plantation, it concerns the differing attitudes of two white plantation owners, Mr Edwards and Mr Jefferies, ... -
Primary Geography in the Republic of Ireland: Practices, issues and possible futures
(Routledge, 2015)In the Republic of Ireland, geography is recognized as an important subject for children to learn and all pupils take it throughout their primary school years. The current curriculum, the Primary School Curriculum – ... -
Macrophage fumarate hydratase restrains mtRNA-mediated interferon production.
(Springer Nature, 2023-03-08)Metabolic rewiring underlies the effector functions of macrophages, but the mechanisms involved remain incompletely defined. Here, using unbiased metabolomics and stable isotope-assisted tracing, we show that an inflammatory ... -
An Exploration of Conversion Therapy Practices in Ireland

Solution processed, vertically stacked hetero-structured diodes based on liquid-exfoliated WS2 nanosheets: from electrode-limited to bulk-limited behavior
(2022)Vertically stacked metal–semiconductor-metal heterostructures, based on liquid-processed nanomaterials, hold great potential for various printed electronic applications. Here we describe the fabrication of such devices by ... -
Growing older and growing apart? Population age structure and trade
(2023)Purpose This paper explores the empirical relationship between population age structure and bilateral trade. Design/methodology/approach The author includes age structure in both log and Poisson pseudo-maximum ... -
High-Mobility Flexible Transistors with Low-Temperature Solution-Processed Tungsten Dichalcogenides
(2023)The investigation of high-mobility two-dimensional (2D) flakes beyond molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) will be necessary to create a library of high-mobility solution-processed networks that conform to substrates and remain ... -
Amorphous 2D-Nanoplatelets of Red Phosphorus Obtained by Liquid-Phase Exfoliation Yield High Areal Capacity Na-Ion Battery Anodes
(2023)The development of sodium ion batteries will require high-performance elec-trodes with very large areal capacity and reasonable rate performance. Although red phosphorus is a very promising electrode material, it has not ... -
Highly conductive and long-term stable films from liquid-phase exfoliated platinum diselenide
(2022)Liquid-phase exfoliation (LPE) has been introduced as a versatile and scalable production method for two-dimensional (2D) materials. This method yields dispersions that allow for the fabrication of printable and flexible ... -
Collagen/pristine graphene as an electroconductive interface material for neuronal medical device applications
(2022)The growing clinical demand for electrical stimulation-based therapies requires the development of novel conductive biomaterials that balance conductivity, biocompatibility, and mechanical performance. Traditional conductive ... -
Trauma informed interventions to reduce seclusion, restraint and restrictive practices amongst staff caring for children and adolescents with challenging behaviours: A Systematic Review
(2023)Background: Engaging with children and adolescents in mental health settings who are exhibiting behaviours that challenge can often result in the use of seclusion, restraint and coercive practices. It is recognised that ... -
Ireland: The weak European supervision of prison policies and its explanations
(2022)Ireland has a long history as a member state of the Council of Europe and its supervisory mechanisms. Given the absence of the European Court of Human Rights case law regarding Ireland, this chapter will focus on the impact ... -
Histories of Penal Oversight
(Emerald, 2022)The oversight of prisons is essential to ensure that what happens within them is in compliance with human rights standards and the rule of law. This oversight can happen through formal mechanisms, such as prison inspection ...
