The effect of organic fibres on the undrained shear strength of soil
(Institute of Technology, Sligo, 2013)Accurate determination of soil’s undrained shear strength is essential to make informed decisions regarding construction or maintenance problems. Reduced scale modelling can achieve accurate predictions of in-situ field ... -
An investigation of geosynthetic reinforced piled embankments with particular reference to embankment extremities
(Institute of Technology, Sligo, 2013)The design of reinforced piled embankments is a complex soil-structure interaction problem involving embankment fill, geosynthetic reinforcement, a pile group and the soft underlying soil. In designing a reinforced piled ... -

Experimental and numerical analysis of three-dimensional free-surface turbulent vortex flows with strong circulation
(Institute of Technology, Sligo, 2015)Strong free-surface vortex flows are widely employed in various civil engineering and industrial applications. However, a review of the state-of-the-art suggests that a number of areas surrounding the underlying flow ... -
Predicting and locating fracture in bone using acoustic emission
(Institute of Technology, Sligo, 2015)A novel way to predict intra-operative fracture during Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) using acoustic emission (AE) has been tentatively discovered. AE has also been shown to be able to predict the location of such fracture. ... -
Modelling anaerobic wastewater treatment
(Institute of Technology, Sligo., 2006)There is a real need for dynamic models in the design and operation of treatment processes given that design theory and control strategy are directly linked to process modelling. The core objective of this study was to ... -
The removal of pollutants present in domestic wastewater by an inorganic medium.
(Institute of Technology, Sligo, 1998)The removal of polluting parameters present in domestic wastewater, by the Biolat septic tank was investigated. Results obtained indicate that the Biolat media was responsible for the removal of ammonium and phosphate. ... -
Low carbon housing refurbishment challenges in Ireland : a discussion
(Institute of Technology, Sligo., 2013)There are a great many variants which need to be considered prior to undertaking a building’s refurbishment, including: cost of refurbishment and the pay-back time, effects to health and the environment in respect to ... -

Building information modelling (BIM) based energy analysis and response to low carbon construction innovations
(Institute of Technology, Sligo., 2013)Building Information Modeling (BIM) is the process o f generating and managing building data during its life cycle, it uses three-dimensional, real-time, dynamic building modeling software to increase productivity in ... -
Third level qualifications by alternative modes of study
(Institute of Technology, Sligo, 1992)Chapter One follows the progress of technological education in Ireland from the Autumn of 1961 when the OECD asked for a survey of the educational systems of each of its member countries, so that there would be a well ... -
Netclasses : a lecturer's website manager
(Institute of Technology Sligo, 2004)There are a number of Learning Content Management Systems on the market. All commercial ones are expensive and all require considerable training to use. A simple lecturer’s web site management tool, NetClasses, which is ... -
