The current paper proposes a methodological framework incorporating a Composite Sustainability Index (CSI) to determine the sustainability impact on providing segregated footpaths and cycle-lanes. It establishes a ...

Systematic experimental investigation is carried out to characterize the effect of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) grafting on the average mechanical properties and mode-II fracture toughness of carbon fiber reinforced plastics ...

A non-modal linear stability analysis (NMA) of the miscible viscous fingering in a porous medium is studied for a toy model of non-monotonic viscosity variation. The onset of instability and its physical mechanism are ...

Development of heterostructured photocatalysts which can facilitate spatial separation of photo-generated charge carriers is crucial for achieving improved photocatalytic H2 production. Consequently, herein, we report ...

We recorded one- and two-dimensional solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of meteoric insoluble organic matter with unprecedented sensitivity and resolution permitting us to reveal unambiguous spectroscopic ...

Extensive results elucidating the effect of severe blockage on drag coefficient and Nusselt number for a heated sphere sedimenting in Bingham plastic fluids on the axis of a long cylindrical tube over wide ranges of blockage ...

Bacterial infections pose a serious threat to mankind, and there is immense interest in the design and development of self-assembled peptide gels using ultrashort peptides for antibacterial applications. The peptide gels ...

We introduce two sequences of two-variable polynomials {L n K(t, `)} ∞n=1 and {F n K(t, `)} ∞n=1, expressed in terms of index value of a crossing and n-dwrithe value of a virtual knot K, where t and ` are variables. ...

Since last three decades, research in the field of robot kinematics is boosted-up among different researchers worldwide. This is mainly due to their increased use in various challenging fields of engineering and science. ...

In this paper, we give randomized approximation algorithms for stochastic cumulative VRPs for the split and unsplit deliveries. The approximation ratios are max{1+1.5α, 3} and 6, respectively, where α is the approximation ...
