Increasing global energy demand and dependence on fossil fuels which are limited in stoke and are associated with environmental and health concerns arising from their use, have sparked the research interest in alternative ...
Chapter 1: Nitrogen-Containing Molecules: The Privileged Motifs and Their Diverse Synthetic Tactics
The nitrogen acyclic and heterocyclic scaffolds are of paramount interest among the total heterocycles not only due to ...
The entire work was focused on the application of two powerful state-of-the-art techniques, namely EDA (Electron donor acceptor) concept and Photoredox Catalysis, to develop novel synthetic protocols for the generation of ...
Cutting fluids are generally used during the conventional turning process to provide lubrication and
flushing of chips from the cutting zone. However, cutting fluids cost around 16-20% of total production
cost apart from ...
A large variety of metalworking fluids, such as neat oils, oil-water emulsions, water based synthetic coolants, aerosols, etc., are commonly employed in the metal cutting industry to mitigate the severe tribological ...
Chapter 1: An Exordium to Oxygen Heterocycles and Reactivity of Cyclopropane
Monocarbonyls
Heterocycles irrespective of their class, circumscribe the major part of all bioactive
molecules like natural products, biomolecules, ...
Fingering instabilities are ubiquitous in porous media flows like enhanced oil recovery,
contaminant transport in aquifers to name a few. Fingering instabilities are observed
when the fluid-fluid interface deforms into ...
Dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) are widely used in soft robotics as they are flexible,
light weight, resembles natural muscle, induce large strain, have high energy density and
quick response time. The DEA is a ...
The aim of this thesis is to understand the external field induced (gravitational, electric and magnetic fields) spreading dynamics of drops on surfaces of varying degrees of wettability. In pursuit of this, the present ...
Continuous increase in global population and technology dependence has led to
extensive exploitation of non-renewable sources of energy like fossil fuels. Adverse
consequences on environment due to burning of fossil fuels ...
One of the main focuses of the present thesis is to carry out various C-heteroatom bond forming reactions under transition-metal-free condition.
Chapter 1: Introduction
To pursue the above thought process, a detailed ...
The present thesis investigates the influence of impact elasto-hydrodynamics of non-Newtonian fluid droplets on the different wettability, temperature and curvature targets. Research into droplet deposition following impact ...
Balancing the energy demand and supply in real-time is vital for the power
grid's stable and reliable operation. Traditionally, this task is accomplished by
managing the supply. At times, when controlling generation is ...
Discovering new materials is a key aspect of semiconductor physics for sustaining
the continuous progress and improvements in current electronic devices. The
discovery of the non-trivial topological phase was a deviation ...
Monel K-500 is a nickel-based alloy having excellent mechanical and anti-corrosive properties.
It is widely used in power generation turbines, aircraft, springs and fasteners for the marine industry, components for chemical ...
The enormous success of crowdsourced portals such as Wikipedia, Stack Overflow, Quora and
GitHub has motivated researchers to discern the underlying dynamics of knowledge-building
and collective intelligence on these ...
Electric vehicles are a good alternative for a clean and environmentally friendly urban transport
system. The electrical drive is the core component of electric vehicles, and researchers are
continuously making efforts ...
The skin is the first protective layer against the external environment of the body. The body's largest organ, the skin, plays a crucial role in everyday biological and social life. The skin controls the interference of ...
