Micromechanical understanding of the macroscopic features of dense granular materials
The prevalence of granular materials in nature (soil, beach sand, rubble pile asteroids) and in several industries (cement, food grains, pharmaceutical powders) has motivated extensive research towards understanding the ...
Rheology of dense non-Brownian suspensions
Suspensions are ubiquitous in nature and industry, ranging from magma, blood, and mud to cement, paint, and molten chocolate. Despite the Newtonian nature of the suspending fluid and the expectation of linearity in the ...
Investigation of multiscale biological phenomenon using kinetic modeling and molecular dynamics simulations
Biological systems inherently function at multiple spatial and temporal scales by integrating information across these scales. In this thesis, we are interested in investigating two classes of biological phenomena that ...
Advancements in Nucleic Acid Lateral Flow Assay
In recent decades, the demand for rapid and precise nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs)
has grown significantly, driven by the need to address pandemics like COVID-19 and diagnose
infectious diseases such as ...
Paper-Based Point-of-Care Diagnostic Tools: Electrokinetic Nucleic Acid Extraction and Saliva-Based Glucose Detection for Diabetes Monitoring
Currently, we face a global challenge posed by the dual burden of chronic diseases such as diabetes and infectious diseases such as tuberculosis (TB). Low-and middle-income countries are disproportionately overburdened by ...
