• Constraint programming for optimization under uncertainty in inventory control 

  Rossi, Roberto (University College Cork, 2008)

  Constraint Programming (CP) is a programming paradigm where relations between variables can be stated in the form of constraints. CP features discrete domains and global constraints. Global constraints capture interesting ...
• Electrical power optimisation of grid-connected wave energy converters using economic predictive control 

  O'Sullivan, Adrian C.M. (University College Cork, 2018)

  This thesis investigates the advanced control algorithms used for optimally extracting energy from a wave-to-wire wave energy converter system. The research focuses on the wave-to-wire system model as a whole, instead of ...
• The prevalence and prognostic value of abnormal body composition phenotypes in Irish oncology patients 

  Daly, Louise (University College Cork, 2017)

  Advancements in image-based technologies and body composition research over the past decade has led to increased understanding of the importance of muscle abnormalities, such as low muscle mass (sarcopenia), and more ...
• An investigation of high-k materials in metal-insulator-metal capacitor structures 

  Hutchinson, Barry James (University College Cork, 2017)

  Metal insulator metal (MIM) capacitors are vital components of many devices such as communication band beamformers, medical, automotive, RF IC’s and memory applications. Current MIM capacitors technology utilises low ...
• Innovative hull design for servicing offshore wind turbines 

  Shanley, Matthew (University College Cork, 2018)

  Accessing turbines for maintenance is a key operational issue for an offshore wind farm. Currently there is a 1.5m significant wave height (Hs) limit for the standard “step over” method of transferring personnel to an ...
