An evaporating meniscus formed by a wetting °uid in a heated capillary slot with capillary driven °flow is numerically and experimentally investigated at the microscale and pore scale. In the microscale analysis, the ...

Distributed power generation through renewable sources of energy has the potential of meeting the challenge of providing electricity access to the off-grid population, estimated to be around 1.2 billion residing across the ...

This thesis deals with the study of two problems in the area of nonlinear dynamics using the method of multiple scales. Accordingly, it consists of two parts. In the first part of the thesis, we explore the asymptotic ...

Deposition of dispersed phase from flowing dispersions onto a substrate surface is of utmost relevance for various industrial processes like fouling of sparingly soluble salts, such as CaCO3 and CaSO4 in heat exchangers and ...

Targeted delivery aids in minimizing most of the drug-originated systemic toxic effects as well as improving the pharmacokinetic properties of anticancer therapeutics. Tumor targeting using hyaluronic acid (HA) as the ...

Droplet evaporation is ubiquitous to multitude of applications such as microfluidics, surface patterning and ink-jet printing. In many of the process like food processing tiny concentrations of suspended particles may alter ...

Endoscopy is an involved clinical practice requiring considerable skill in performing the procedure. Virtual reality together with haptics offers immersive, flexible, and cost-effective platform for training in endoscopic ...
