The present study attempts the application of Natural Rubber Latex (NRL) to improve
di erent mechanical characteristics of the soil. The study mainly focuses on the strength
and ductility characteristics, liquefaction ...
In the past decade, two-dimensional (2D) layered materials have emerged as a promising area
of research, with significant efforts devoted to their fundamental studies and practical device
applications. Due to their ...
Specific ion effects at air/aqueous interfaces are widely involved in physical, chemical, environmental, and biological processes imperative in modern surface science and technology. The kinetics and thermodynamics of these ...
Chapter 1: Introduction
To pursue the above thought process, a detailed literature studies as well as vigorous surveys of
previous reports on main group Lewis acid (B(C6F5)3 and InBr3)-catalyzed functionalization of ...
The immense amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions has resulted in the most serious
environmental issues like ocean acidification, extreme weather, species extinction, and global
warming. Consequently, the utilization ...
Continued industrialization and urbanization all around the globe have resulted in
equally rapid growth in global energy consumption as well as demand. This massive surge
in energy demands has increased our dependence ...
Nanobubbles are nanoscale bubble swarms with several peculiar properties that
have been demonstrated to have a widespread application in the engineering and
medical sectors. Surface nanobubbles are bubbles that are confned ...
Hypertension, a common condition that affects over 25% of the global population, is a significant risk factor for
various cardiovascular and renal complications. It is also a leading cause of death worldwide. In ...
Chemosensors are molecular systems that interact with particular target species to generate an analytically useful signal. For instance, the optical chemosensors interact with analytes resulting a change in optical properties ...
The human brain is a predictive machine (Clark, 2013), and it is well established in psycholinguistics
that it routinely and inherently predicts upcoming words during realtime
sentence comprehension. some central questions ...
The solar pond is a radiation collecting and storing device used for low to medium-scale thermal applications. It traps the radiation either because of the halocline or any other method suppressing the natural convection ...
Non-Destructive Testing and Evaluation (NDT&E) is a reliable process to reveal the surface and sub-surface information of the test objects using various inspection methods without impairing their future usefulness. Among ...
Domination and its variations are widely studied graph optimization problems. In a graph
G = (V;E), a set D V is called a dominating set if every vertex not in D has a neighbour
in D. The MI N IMUM D OMI NAT I O N ...
Water is the fundamental need of every human being, but its shortage is affecting
large number of developing countries which are home to more than half of the world’s
population. Solar-energy driven humidification-dehu ...
Non-destructive testing & evaluation (NDT&E) in conjunction with efficient post-processing approaches play a vital role in computer aided industrial quality control. NDT&E techniques are capable to detect different types ...
Metallicity is a critical factor in determining a material's suitability for interconnect applications. In case of shrinkage in cross-sectional dimensions, interconnect performance is severely impacted. More than half of ...
In recent years, there has been an increase in the applications of multispectral images
(MSIs) in different domains. However, the adoption of MSIs in the real world has been
constrained primarily because current multispectral ...
Changing climatic conditions is one of the biggest challenges to species persistence
and biodiversity maintenance. Numerous biodiversity hotspots are expected to fear
unprecedented rises in temperatures in the near future. ...
The phenomenon of evaporation-induced self-assembly inspires the co ee-ring phenomena,
in which a drying co ee droplet creates a ring-like pattern on the surface. On
the nano or microscale, the majority of surfaces, ...
In recent decades, Infrared Imaging has been immersed as a non-invasive testing and imaging technique in the area of biomedical applications for revealing the surface, subsurface, and characteristic information about the ...
