With the recent surge in the usage of electronic devices, electromagnetic interference (EMI) poses a serious threat. Unwanted electromagnetic (EM) waves not only interfere with the normal functioning of electronic components, ...

In recent times, urban water utilities have shown increasing preference for increasing block tariff (IBT) for pricing domestic water. Although appealing at the outset, IBT’s can fall short of achieving its goals such as ...

Monsoon Low-Pressure Systems (LPS) are synoptic-scale tropical disturbances that periodically form over the Indian subcontinent during the summer monsoon season (June-September). Apart from being a lifeline to agriculture, ...

Achieving low latency is of utmost importance in applications demanding real-time sensing and control as in cyber-physical systems. In this thesis, we explore three different facets of ensuring low latency in such systems. ...

The need and demand for continuous high-speed, energy-efficient hardware advancement is undisputed. Traditional computing system with von Neumann architecture leads to high energy consumption and latency due to a huge ...

Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) have been very successful due to their ability to extract meaningful information without any need for pre-processing raw data. First artificial neural networks were created in essence to ...

Graphene is a two-dimensional semimetal that has linear dispersion in energy-momentum space. When graphene is subjected to a perpendicular magnetic field, the dispersion is no longer linear, resulting in discrete energy ...

The current upsurge in demand for high energy density batteries for applications across industries ranging from small scale portable electronics, electric automobiles to storage grids, has led to research in next generation, ...

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common disorder of the joints and currently affects >300 million patients worldwide. In this disease, the articulating cartilage undergoes progressive damage which leads to severe pain and ...

MEMS vibratory gyroscopes are used to measure the angular rate of a body by sensing the Coriolis force induced motion of the sensing element vibrating in a rotating frame of reference. MEMS gyroscopes find use in a wide ...
