Encapsulant of Graphene embedded polymer that exhibits low permeability to moisture and oxygen were used as a packaging material for OPVDs. Graphene-Surlyn encapsulated and unencapsulated devices were stored both in ambient ...

Jet in crossflow is a flow scenario that involves momentum exchange of a round jet injected into a crossflow. This flow configuration has industrial importance because of its application in gas turbine combustors which ...

Manipulating and utilizing fluid flows at microscale provides several opportunities towards technological advancement in different domains such as (but not limited to) lab-on-chip devices for mimicking biological laboratory ...

The performance of any deep learning model depends heavily on the quantity and quality of the available training data. The generalization of the trained deep models improves with the availability of a large number of ...

Recent climate change issues demand stringent emission standards for natural gas-fired power generation applications. The Trapped Vortex Combustor (TVC) is a relatively new concept where the flame is stabilized using a ...

Technology scaling has driven the development of semiconductor technology that forms a ubiquitous part of daily utilities such as smartphones, computers, and wearables. However, efforts to continue scaling have met ...

Tuberculosis (TB) is a debilitating infectious disease that afflicts 10 million people every year. Treatment is particularly challenging due to prolonged treatment duration (4-6 months) consisting of an oral regimen of 4 ...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a Gram-negative opportunistic pathogen, estimated to account for 15-20% of hospital-acquired infection-related deaths around the globe in a year. This bacterium exhibits two distinct collective ...

Liquid jet injection into supersonic crossflow is one of the conceptually simple ways of fuel atomization in SCRAMJET engines. The success of these engines demands the efficient mixing of incoming supersonic air and the ...

The introduction of two dimensional (2D) materials in electronic device applications has provided a platform for several new device concepts and architectures. Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) is the only insulator in the ...
