Understanding deformation mechanisms in the Hall-Petch breakdown regime of Ni-W alloys
The substantially higher strengths of nanocrystalline metals has been to attributed to the well-known Hall-Petch relationship σ= σ_o+k_HP d^(-1/2) where 𝜎 is the yield stress, 𝜎𝑜 is the lattice friction stress, 𝑑 is ...
Bioinspiration for battling bacteria: Nature inspired high aspect ratio nanostructures for new age antibacterial surfaces
Bacterial colonization and biofilm formation on abiotic surfaces effectuate corrosion,
fermentation, and infection resulting in tremendous economic and human losses each year.
Aggravating the situation, new multi-drug ...
Design and Performance Analyses of Osculating Cone Waveriders
Modern mission requirements for long-range maneuverable hypersonic vehicles for
space, military, and transportation applications necessitate vehicle design innovations.
The primary challenges that a hypersonic vehicle ...
Interfacial oscillations and atomization of liquid jets from non-circular orifices
Understanding the flow behaviour of liquid jets discharging from orifices is essential for several applications such as fuel spraying, ink-jet printing, aerosol devices in pharmaceutical industries, micro-machined fuel ...
Design and Development of Force Sensor for measurement of Tactile Friction
The sense of touch, along with the other senses, decides the perception of world around us. We touch, grip, and wear various products in our day-to-day life, be it the constant interaction we have with our mobile phones, ...
Exploration of Design Thinking in School Education
