• Voltage-source converter controls for distorted microgrid operation and provision of additional services 

  Hogan, Diarmaid (University College Cork, 2017)

  This thesis investigates the role played by three-phase grid-tied voltage-source converters in the operation of the microgrid under optimal and distorted grid conditions. Enhanced control schemes are developed to improve ...
• Synthesis of α-thio-β-chloroacrylamides including continuous processing and application to the formation of sulfur containing heterocycles 

  Cacheux, Valérie M.Y. (University College Cork, 2018)

  α-Thio-β-chloroacrylamides are formed from the analogous α-thioamides through an oxidative reaction cascade. In this work, enhanced insight into the mechanistic pathway leading to these highly functionalised compounds has ...
• The oral microbiota of Irish children in health and disease: a longitudinal and cross sectional study 

  Hurley, Eimear (University College Cork, 2017)

  The oral cavity harbours a very rich and diverse microbial community. In the last decade, the oral microbiota of children and adults has been studied in detail using continuously developing DNA sequencing methods. In ...
• Radiative signatures of the jet launching region in astronomical objects 

  O' Riordan, Michael (University College Cork, 2018)

  Relativistic jets are observed in a wide range of accreting black hole systems, from stellar-mass black holes in X-ray binaries (XRBs), to supermassive black holes in active galactic nuclei (AGN). However, despite decades ...
• Recoding and reassignment in protists 

  Heaphy, Stephen (University College Cork, 2018)

  During mRNA translation the ribosome reads each codon (nucleotide triplet) with a specific meaning. The standard genetic code comprises 61 sense-codons for specifying the 20 standard amino acids during elongation and three ...
