As the world is shifting to hydrogen as an alternative energy carrier, hydrogen storage and transportation are seen as a big challenge. This is due to the fact that hydrogen is associated with an embrittlement phenomenon ...
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 ...
Peptides and proteins play vital roles in almost all biological and physiological
processes. Since they function as hormones, enzyme inhibitors or substrates, growth
promoters, or inhibitors and neurotransmitters, life ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Producing eco-friendly products has become the need of the present due to the alarming conditions of global warming issues and depletion of natural resources. Global Footprint Network estimated the ecological footprints ...
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 ...
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 ...
This thesis presents a comprehensive experimental investigation of SERS and optical
response from various fabricated metal nanostructures using a controlled recipe. It focuses
on the extensive understanding of governing ...
Current trends of escalation in robotic applications to accomplish a variety of
tasks has led to the need of customization in the design of robotic manipulators. As
the era is rapidly heading towards Industry 4.0, where ...
Surface voltage measurement of an insulated (silicone rubber) overhead conductor
assumes importance for understanding corona, radio interference voltages, and design
purposes. Surface voltage measurement of a bare overhead ...
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 human skeleton experiences a wide range of strain rates during various activities and events. The mechanical response of bone considerably depends on the rate of applied loading. Though various studies are available ...
Organochalcogen compounds have been widely studied as they often exhibit biological
activities, including anticancer, antimicrobial, and antioxidant. More specifically, the
chalcogenocyanates and chalcogenated ethers are ...
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 ...
