Studies on Two-Stage Air-Cooled Silica gel + Water Adsorption Cooling System
Adsorption cooling systems are evolving as promising complements to conventional vapor compression refrigeration (VCR) systems because of their ability to utilize low-grade heat sources such as industrial waste heat, solar, ...
Seismic evaluation of 3D tunnels in near fault ground motion using domain reduction method
Underground tunnels are an essential part of transportation and utility networks, and their vulnerability to earthquakes has significant socio-economic impacts. Tunnels have suffered substantial damage in past earthquakes, ...
Characterization and Control of Boundary Layer Transition Caused by Distributed Surface Roughness
Distributed roughness occurs over a variety of aerodynamic surfaces such as wind-/gas-turbine blades and aircraft wings in the form of dust, insect strikes, fouling or icing. The disturbances introduced by the roughness ...
Effect of Electric Current Pulses on Pre-cracked Thin Metallic Conductors: From Crack Propagation to Healing of Cracks
Both scientifically and technologically, it is important to investigate the effects of electric current on the structural integrity of metallic components. As an electric current reverses its direction across a crack, ...
Synthesis of Monodispersed Pdms Microspheres of Tunable Modulus Using Droplet Microfluidics and Study of the Rheology of Dense Suspensions of Rigid and Soft Particles in Shear Flow
We report the synthesis of monodispersed PDMS microspheres of tuneable modulus using a droplet-based microfluidics approach. Nevertheless, polymer microspheres can be used as a model representative particle to mimic the ...
Investigations of Sensors Based on New Molecular Architectonics: Synthesis, Fabrication and Application
Rapid industrialization and expansion of urban landscapes in large cities generate maximum
polluting ingredients to the surrounding environment. While organic contaminants are
naturally occurring, the increase in human ...
Vorticity and scalar transport in turbulent round jets with and without heating
The round turbulent jets are ubiquitous in both natural and engineered systems such as clouds,
engine exhausts, chimney plumes, and respiratory flows. We aimed to understand the vorticity and
scalar transport in turbulent ...
Evaluation Frameworks for Informed Multi-Site Multi-Variate Hydrological Assessment
The process of choosing a suitable hydrological model, calibrating it, and evaluating its performance poses intricate challenges for a modeler. The process of model selection is frequently influenced by the modeller's ...
Novel Microfluidic Tools for Multiplex Colorimetric Detection of Analytes and Point Mutation Detection in Infectious Pathogens
Recently, the need for affordable point-of-care tests has grown exponentially. An ideal point of
care (POC) test or device should satisfy the WHO-endorsed ASSURED criteria, meaning that the
test/device should be accessible, ...
Microstructure-Corrosion Property Correlation in Electrodeposited Sn and Cu Based Coating Systems
Conventional metallic coatings are widely used for protection against corrosion. This study investigates the correlation between microstructure and corrosion properties in SnCr and CuCr electrodeposited coatings. The wide ...
