The Establishment of Defence Science and Technology in Sri Lanka
(2017)It is well understood that for a modern military to be effective it needs to have access to an advanced science and technology organisation specialising in defence related activities. This includes both project based an ... -
Establishment of Diagnostic Reference Level (DRL) for Computed Tomography (CT) Examinations from Selected Hospitals in Sri Lanka
(2018)Computed Tomography (CT) examinations deliver higher patient dose in comparison with other conventional x-ray examinations. The aim of this study was to establish local diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) for selected ... -
Establishment of Facility Reference Level for Computed Tomography in Radiotherapy Simulation Examinations at National Cancer Institute Sri Lanka
(2023-09)Computed Tomography (CT) plays a crucial role in radiotherapy treatment planning. The optimization of radiation dose to patient during CT simulation is not a matter of concern so far in most of the countries but it cannot ... -
Establishment of Institutional Diagnostic Reference Levels for Whole-body Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography Imaging Procedures
(2023-09)The use of Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET/CT) imaging has become more popular in oncology. A concern with PET/CT is the combined radiation doses from both CT and radiopharmaceuticals. A Diagnostic ... -
Estimation of Lift Hysteresis of an Airfoil in low speed flow
(2022-09)Abstract: A phenomenon called hysteresis leads to a difference in separation and reattachment angles of an airfoil at angles of attack near and above stall. This an airfoil than expected for a given angle ... -
Estimation of Above Ground Biomass in Sinharaja Forest Reserve, Using Sentinel Images
(2023-09)This research aimed to explore the potential of remote sensing techniques in estimating Above Ground Biomass (AGB) values over the Sinharaja forest area in Sri Lanka. Sentinel-1&2 satellite images were used to extract ... -

Estimation of Hydro-acoustic Signatures Originated from Ship's Hull Vibration
(2016)The origin of shipboard hull vibrations is dominantly determined by vessels propulsion system, main machinery, auxiliary systems, pumps, breaking of the waves at the ship hull, etc. All of these peripherals and systems ... -
Estimation of Lift Hysteresis of an Airfoil in Low Speed Flow
(2022-09-29)A phenomenon called hysteresis leads to a difference in separation and reattachment angles of an airfoil at angles of attack near and above stall. This occurs when there is a difference in the lift distribution of an ... -
Estimation of Phenolic Content, Flavonoid Content, and Antioxidant Activities of Selected Fruits in Sri Lanka
(2023-09)The aim of this study was to evaluate the Total Phenolic Content (TPC), Total Flavonoid Content (TFC), and in vitro antioxidant activity, of six underutilized fruits in Sri Lanka. The selected fruits are Elaeocarpus ... -
Estimation of probable maximum precipitation in the context of climate
(2023-09)Probable Maximum Precipitation (PMP) estimates are essential when designing hydraulic structures, especially since the risk of the failure of such structures are high. The impact on climate change with PMP has been crucial ... -
