CAD-based geometry parametrisation for shape optimisation using Non-uniform Rational B-splines
(Queen Mary University of London, 2018-05-10)With the continuous growth in computing power, numerical optimisation is increasingly applied in shape optimisation using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Since CFD computations are expensive, gradient-based optimisation ... -
CADM1 inhibits squamous cell carcinoma progression by reducing STAT3 activity.
(Springer Nature, 2016-04-01)Although squamous cell carcinomas (SqCCs) of the lungs, head and neck, oesophagus, and cervix account for up to 30% of cancer deaths, the mechanisms that regulate disease progression remain incompletely understood. Here, ... -
CAESAR8: An agile enterprise architecture approach to managing information security risks
(Elsevier, 2022-11)In theory, implementing an Enterprise Architecture (EA) should enable organizations to increase the accuracy of information security risk assessments. In reality, however, organizations struggle to fully implement EA ... -
Caffeine induces gastric acid secretion via bitter taste signaling in gastric parietal cells
(National Academy of Sciences, 2017-07-10)Caffeine, generally known as a stimulant of gastric acid secretion (GAS), is a bitter-tasting compound that activates several taste type 2 bitter receptors (TAS2Rs). TAS2Rs are expressed in the mouth and in several extraoral ... -
The CAIRN method: Automated, reproducible calculation of catchment-averaged denudation rates from cosmogenic radionuclide concentrations
(European Geosciences Union, 2016-04-19)<jats:p>The use of cosmogenic radionuclides to calculate catchment-averaged denudation rates has become a widely adopted technique in the last two decades, yet the methodology varies between studies and is not always ... -
Calanus helgolandicus in the western English Channel: population dynamics and the role of mortality
(Queen Mary University of London, 2017-08-23)Calanus helgolandicus is a key copepod species occurring in the North East Atlantic that is responding to oceanic warming through an expansion of its geographic range. This range extension has led to concerns about how ... -
Calcification and photosynthesis in montipora sp. (cnidaria) and corallina officinalis (rhodophyceae)
(2006)Over half of the world's calcification is carried out by algae or by organisms which harbour them, such as coccol ithoph ores, foraminiferans, coralline seaweeds and reef-building corals. Calcification acts as a sink ... -
Calcified tissue structure in the distal condyle of the third metacarpal bonein young Thoroughbred horses
(Queen Mary University of London, 2007-12)Aims: To determine improvements in third metacarpal (Mc3) condylar microanatomy attributable to preconditioning exercise. To investigate developmental causes of Mc3 condylar fracture. Methods: Twelve Thoroughbred horses ... -
The Calcitriol Study A Randomised Placebo Controlled Clinical Trial to Test the Effects of Calcitriol in Steroid Resistant Asthma.
(Queen Mary University of London, 2015)Background Over five million people in the UK are receiving treatment for asthma. Corticosteroids (steroids) are the mainstay of asthma therapy but some patients do not respond fully to steroid treatment, they are ...
