When given solutes are transported in porous media flows, various propagation regimes can be observed depending on the adsorption isotherms. We perform numerical simulations to investigate the influence of an anti-Langmuir ...

This paper describes our approach for the Disguised Faces in the Wild (DFW) 2018 challenge. The task here is to verify the identity of a person among disguised and impostors images. Given the importance of the task of ...

Enabling mechanical responsiveness in field-effect transistors (FETs) offers new technological opportunity beyond the reach of existing platforms. Here a new force-sensing concept is proposed by controlling the wettability ...

We address the question of non-vanishing of L(1, f) where f is an algebraic- valued, periodic arithmetical function. We do this by characterizing algebraic-valued, periodic functions f for which L(1, f) = 0. The case of ...

The feedback interaction between unsteady heat release rate and combustor acoustics leading to self-excited oscillations is a well-known phenomenon, referred technically to as thermoacoustic instability. The phenomenon is ...

The direct, one-pot catalytic conversion of carbohydrates (especially sucrose and glucose) to 2,5- diformylfuran is a challenging task. The development of a bi-functional sustainable heterogeneous catalyst is crucial to ...

The recent years have witnessed a remarkable growth in the area of chiral hypervalent iodine chemistry. These environmentally friendly, mild and economic reagents have been used in catalytic or stoichiometric amounts as ...

A dual mechanistic FRET and PET paired ratiometric fluorescence sensor probe has been prepared using carbon dots and naphthalimide fluorophores. The carbon dots are covalently joined with a naphthalimide moiety to develop ...

Nanoparticle dispersions or more popularly “nanofluids” have been extensively researched for their candidature as working fluid in direct-volumetric-absorption solar thermal systems. Flexibility in carving out desired ...

In multigigahertz integrated circuit design, the extra delay and power losses due to surface roughness in copper (Cu) interconnects is more evident than ever before and needs utmost consideration. This paper reports ...
