Estimation of Daily Actual Evapotranspiration using Microwave and Optical Vegetation Indices for Clear and Cloudy Sky Conditions
(2018-05-25)
Evapotranspiration (ET) is a significant hydrological process. It can be studied and estimated using remote sensing based methods at multiple spatial and temporal scales. Most commonly and widely used remote sensing based ...
Swelling and Dye Adsorption Characteristics of Superabsorbent Polymers
(2018-07-18)
In the current study, SAPs of cationic monomer [2 - (Methacryloyloxy) ethyl] trimethylammonium chloride have been prepared by free radical solution polymerisation with different crosslinkers. They were subjected to repeated ...
Monodisperse Gold Nanoparticles : Synthesis, Self-Assembly and Fabrication of Floating Gate Memory Devices
(2018-04-23)
The emergence of novel electronic, optical and magnetic properties in ordered two-dimensional (2D) nanoparticle ensembles, due to collective dipolar interactions of surface plasmons or excitons or magnetic moments have ...
Development Of Ionic Catalysts For The Water-gas Shift Reaction And Exhaust Gas Purification
(2013-04-04)
Treatment of fuel cell feed H2 for the removal of CO is important owing to the poisoning of the catalysts, thereby affecting the performance of the fuel cell. Strong and preferential adsorption of CO over the catalyst takes ...
Turbulence in Soft Walled Micro Channels
(2017-12-07)
In comparison to the flow in a rigid channel, there is a multi-fold reduction in the transition Reynolds number for the flow in a micro channel when one of the walls is made sufficiently soft, due to a dynamical instability ...
Alternative Mechanisms for Size Control in Synthesis of Nanoparticles - Population Balance Modelling and Experimental Studies
(2018-04-06)
The extensive growth of nanotechnology has necessitated the development of economical and robust methods for large scale production of nanomaterials. It requires detailed quantitative understanding of lab-scale processes ...
Modeling Human Immunodeficiency Virus Transmission and Infection
(2018-05-21)
HIV-1 is a global pandemic with about 39 million people infected. In India, 2.9 million people are infected and about 2 lakh new infections have been reported last year. To date, there is no cure for HIV/AIDS. Current ...
Modeling and Experimental Investigations into Soluble Lead Redox Flow Battery : New Mechanisms
(2018-05-14)
Continued emission of green house gases has energized research activity worldwide to develop efficient ways to harness renewal energy. The availability of large scale energy storage technologies is essential to make renewal ...
Testing the Hypothesis of Quorum Sensing in Vibrio fischeri : Luminescence, Motility, and Biofilm
(2018-03-15)
The individual behaviour of prokaryotic organisms such as bacteria often gives rise to complexity that is commonly associated with multicellular behaviour. The transition from unicellular to multicellular behaviour occurs ...
