Using multiple view geometry for transmission tower reconstruction by Morarjee, Bhavani

“…The pipeline designed is capable of reconstructing a tower up to scale, provided that a known measurement of the scene is provided. Both 2D and 3D hypotheses are formed and scored using edge detection methods before being clustered into a final model. …”

The role of the endogenous opioid system in thermoregulation during exercise by Schwellnus, Martin Peter

“…The results of Part I show that rises in rectal temperature as well as calculated water losses were similar for placebo and after the administration of both 2mg and 10mg naloxone. Similarly, during maximal exercise (Part II) the rise in rectal and oesophageal temperatures was equivalent for placebo and 2mg naloxone but sublingual temperature failed to rise during exercise following the 2mg naloxone dose. …”

Fracture in polycrystalline diamond. Investigating cracking and toughness behaviour using a miniature double torsion technique by Petrov, Serguei Igorevich

“…The DIC experiments were performed in both 2D and 3D configurations. The DIC data was processed employing the JMAN routine – a numerical method for the calculation of the J-integral from the DIC measured displacement field. …”

The effects of the modification of energy metabolism on cellular response to ionizing radiation by Hunter, Alistair John

“…The medium which had the most significant effect in respect of repair inhibition and increased radiosensitivity was medium lacking both glucose and glutamine and containing both 2DG and AOA. This medium was shown to inhibit oxygen consumption and to result in a depression of both cellular glycolysis/PPP and glutaminolysis. …”

The study of intermetallic particles in aluminium alloy AA3104 can-body stock during homogenisation by Magidi, Livhuwani Tessa

“…Therefore, homogenisation at 560°C/520°C is the better homogenisation treatment temperature option. Furthermore, both 2-D microstructural analysis and particle extraction analysis are reliable techniques that complement each other when qualitatively and quantitatively studying the evolution of intermetallic particles in aluminium alloy AA3104 canbody stock during homogenisation. …”

The effect of beta-oxidation or TCA cycle inhibition on mitochondrial function and the sensitivity of high resolution respiratory detection by Osiki, Prisca Ofure

“…Fluorocitrate treatment decreased aconitase activity with low treatment (p = 0.011) compared to control, and conversely it increased MCAD activity in high treatment compared to control (p = 0.024). Both 2-mercaptoacetate (p = 0.03) and fluorocitrate (p < 0.01) treatment at high concentrations resulted in increased citrate synthase activity, compared to low concentration and control. …”

Mesh adaptation through r-refinement using a truss network analogy by Jones, Bevan W S

“…The ball-vertex truss network method is employed as it offers robustness and is applicable to problems in both two and three dimensions. In support of establishing a state-of-the-art adaptive meshing tool, boundary vertices are allowed to slide along geometric boundaries in an automated manner. …”
