PREDICTING LUNAR ECLIPSES IN NORTHERN LATITUDES BY NAKED EYE OBSERVATION

Charles Lee, Thomas Reilly

We investigate methods which may have been found appropriate for predicting lunar eclipses in northern Europe, where naked‐eye astronomy has to be adapted to conditions, which are different from those found at lower latitudes and in places with less cloud cover. The ecliptic is lower in the sky, and transient phenomena cannot reliably be observed under these astronomical viewing conditions. We consider...

Low-cost reusable sensor for cobalt and nickel detection in aerosols using adsorptive cathodic square-wave stripping voltammetry

Jaruwan Mettakoonpitak, Dan Miller-Lionberg, Thomas Reilly, John Volckens, more

Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry > 2017 > 805 > C > 75-82

A low-cost electrochemical sensor with Nafion/Bi modification using adsorptive stripping voltammetry for Co and Ni determination in airborne particulate matter and welding fume samples is described. Carbon stencil-printed electrodes (CSPEs) manufactured on low-cost PET films were utilized. Dimethylglyoxime (DMG) was used as a Co(II) and Ni(II) chelator with selective chemical precipitation for trace...

The Effect of Training Structure on the Latency of Responses to a Five-Term Linear Chain

Thomas Reilly, Robert Whelan, Dermot Barnes-Holmes

The Psychological Record > 2005 > 55 > 2 > 233-249

The current experiment investigated the effect of differential training histories on responses to a 5-term linear chain of nonsense syllables (described here with sequential, alphabetical characters; A<B<C<D<E) across unreinfonced probe trials. Participants’ responses to nonarbitrary stimulus relations of Morethan and Less-than were first brought under contextual control. Participants...

Physical Activity Before and After Diagnosis of Colorectal Cancer

David J. Harriss, N. Tim Cable, Keith George, Thomas Reilly, more

Exercise and Cancer Survivorship > 153-172

Physical inactivity is responsible for 13–14% of colon cancer, an attributable risk greater than family history. Epidemiological evidence shows that PA is protective against colon cancer but is inconclusive as to whether it is protective of rectal cancer or has equal effects on male and female risk of colorectal cancer. The effect of exercise interventions on the risk of colorectal cancer is currently...

A Review of Signal Processing and Analysis Tools for Comprehensive Rotating Machinery Diagnostics

Thomas Reilly

Conference Proceedings of the Society for Experimental Mechanics Series > Rotating Machinery, Structural Health Monitoring, Shock and Vibration, Volume 5 > 463-479

Rotating machinery diagnostics is an essential and often the most important function in industrial process and power generation applications. A variety of methods and tools have been employed by test personnel over the past several decades, from route based walk around methods with single and dual channel data collectors to permanently installed long term condition monitoring systems, but there does...

The impact of different cooling modalities on the physiological responses in firefighters during strenuous work performed in high environmental temperatures

David Barr, Thomas Reilly, Warren Gregson

European Journal of Applied Physiology > 2011 > 111 > 6 > 959-967

This study investigated the impact of ice vests and hand/forearm immersion on accelerating the physiological recovery between two bouts of strenuous exercise in the heat [mean (SD), 49.1(1.3)°C, RH 12 (1)]. On four occasions, eight firefighters completed two 20-min bouts of treadmill walking (5 km h, 7.5% gradient) while wearing standard firefighter protective clothing. Each bout was separated by...

The thermal ergonomics of firefighting reviewed

David Barr, Warren Gregson, Thomas Reilly

Applied Ergonomics > 2010 > 41 > 1 > 161-172

The occupation of firefighting is one that has repeatedly attracted the research interests of ergonomics. Among the activities encountered are attention to live fires, performing search and rescue of victims, and dealing with emergencies. The scientific literature is reviewed to highlight the investigative models used to contribute to the knowledge base about the ergonomics of firefighting, in particular...

Anthropometric and fitness characteristics of international, professional and amateur male graduate soccer players from an elite youth academy

Franck le Gall, Christopher Carling, Mark Williams, Thomas Reilly

Journal of Science and Medicine in Sport > 2010 > 13 > 1 > 90-95

We compared anthropometric and fitness performance data from graduate male youth players from an elite soccer academy who on leaving the institution were either successful or not in progressing to higher standards of play. Altogether, 161 players were grouped according to whether they achieved international or professional status or remained amateur. Measures were taken across three age categories...

Circadian aspects of body temperature regulation in exercise

Thomas Reilly, Jim Waterhouse

Journal of Thermal Biology > 2009 > 34 > 4 > 161-170

Internal and external factors contribute to resting core temperature and affect thermoregulation. Also, a robust circadian rhythm exists, implying that the body is in “heat-gain” or “heat-loss” modes at different times during the 24h. Moreover, many variables associated with exercise, and the body's capacity for exercise, show circadian variation. All these factors contribute to circadian changes...

Some chronobiological and physiological problems associated with long-distance journeys

Thomas Reilly, Jim Waterhouse, Benjamin Edwards

Travel Medicine and Infectious Disease > 2009 > 7 > 2 > 88-101

Long-distance travel is becoming increasingly common. Whatever the means of transport, any long journey will be associated with “travel fatigue”. The symptoms associated with this phenomenon result from a changed routine (particularly sleep lost and meals) and the general disruption caused by travel. Planning any trip well in advance will minimise many of these problems, but some factors are less...

Sports performance: is there evidence that the body clock plays a role?

Thomas Reilly, Jim Waterhouse

European Journal of Applied Physiology > 2009 > 106 > 3 > 321-332

Athletic performance shows a time-of-day effect, possible causes for which are environmental factors (which can be removed in laboratory studies), the sleep-wake cycle and the internal “body clock”. The evidence currently available does not enable the roles of these last two factors to be separated. Even so, results indicate that the body clock probably does play some role in generating rhythms in...

The effects of single and repeated bouts of soccer-specific exercise on salivary IgA

Vahid Sari-Sarraf, Thomas Reilly, Dominic A. Doran, Greg Atkinson

Archives of Oral Biology > 2007 > 52 > 6 > 526-532

Athletes frequently train with a short time recovery between sessions. The present aim was to establish how salivary IgA is altered following two soccer-specific intermittent exercise bouts performed on the same day.Ten males participated in two experimental trials (single session, double session) 1 week apart, in a counterbalanced design. One trial entailed afternoon exercise only (PMEX), in which...

Jet lag: trends and coping strategies

Jim Waterhouse, Thomas Reilly, Greg Atkinson, Ben Edwards

The Lancet > 2007 > 369 > 9567 > 1117-1129

The number of travellers undertaking long-distance flights has continued to increase. Such flights are associated with travel fatigue and jet lag, the symptoms of which are considered here, along with their similarities, differences, and causes. Difficulties with jet lag because of sleep loss and decreased performance are emphasised. Since jet lag is caused mainly by inappropriate timing of the body...

Altered sleep–wake cycles and physical performance in athletes

Thomas Reilly, Ben Edwards

Physiology & Behavior > 2007 > 90 > 2-3 > 274-284

Sleep–waking cycles are fundamental in human circadian rhythms and their disruption can have consequences for behaviour and performance. Such disturbances occur due to domestic or occupational schedules that do not permit normal sleep quotas, rapid travel across multiple meridians and extreme athletic and recreational endeavours where sleep is restricted or totally deprived. There are methodological...
