• Electrostatic built-in fields in wurtzite III-N nanostructures: impact of growth plane on second-order piezoelectricity 

  Patra, Saroj K.; Schulz, Stefan (American Physical Society, 2017)

  In this work we present a detailed analysis of the second-order piezoelectric effect in wurtzite III-N heterostructures, such as quantum wells and quantum dots, grown on different substrate orientations. Our analysis is ...
• Coupling between mean blood pressure and EEG in preterm neonates is associated with reduced illness severity scores 

  Semenova, Oksana; Lightbody, Gordon; O'Toole, John M.; Boylan, Geraldine; Dempsey, Eugene; Temko, Andriy (Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2018)

  Hypotension or low blood pressure (BP) is a common problem in preterm neonates and has been associated with adverse short and long-term neurological outcomes. Deciding when and whether to treat hypotension relies on an ...
• Optimizing parameters of an open-source airway segmentation algorithm using different CT images. 

  Nardelli, Pietro; Khan, Kashi A.; Corvo, Alberto; Moore, Niamh; Murphy, Mary J.; Twomey, Maria; O'Connor, Owen J.; Kennedy, Marcus P.; Estepar, Raul San Jose; Maher, Michael M.; Cantillon-Murphy, Pádraig (BioMed Central, 2015-06-26)

  Background: Computed tomography (CT) helps physicians locate and diagnose pathological conditions. In some conditions, having an airway segmentation method which facilitates reconstruction of the airway from chest CT images ...
• Design of a compliant gripper with multimode jaws 

  Hao, Guangbo; Li, Haiyang; Nayak, Abhilash; Caro, Stephane (American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2018)

  This paper presents the design of a multimode compliant gripper, using the singularities of the four-bar mechanism with equilateral links. The mobility of the compliant gripper can be reconfigurable to grasp a variety of ...
• Nanoscale fissure formation in AlxGa1–xN/GaN heterostructures and their influence on Ohmic contact formation 

  Smith, Matthew D.; Thomson, D.; Zubialevich, Vitaly Z.; Li, Haoning; Naresh-Kumar, G.; Trager-Cowan, C.; Parbrook, Peter J. (John Wiley & Sons Inc., 2017)

  Nanoscale surface fissures on AlxGa1-xN/GaN (15nm/1 mu m) heterostructures grown by metalorganic vapour phase epitaxy (MOVPE) were imaged using tapping-mode atomic force microscopy (AFM) and electron channelling contrast ...
