Microstructure and texture engineering strategies to enhance the corrosion resistance of tin based coatings
Coating corrosion-prone material with metal/alloy and passivated oxide layers is the primary protection method in the ever-evolving corrosion protection area. To improve the corrosion resistance of the coatings, the coating ...
Satellite Attitude Determination from Terrestrial/Planetary Landmarks
Attitude Determination (AD) or specifying orientation relative to a known reference frame
plays a crucial role in meeting the mission specific pointing goals of a satellite. Attitude sensors
provide measurements of known ...
Permeability Modeling for Single Scale and Dual Scale Fabrics and its implementation to Fabrics Undergoing Shear
Composites have found applications, right from high-end aerospace structures to naval and land-based structures. These structures are realized by manufacturing processes like, autoclave and vacuum assisted resin transfer ...
Rheology of dense granular materials
Granular materials are frequently encountered in our daily lives and are widely used in several industrial processes. Characterising the flow of these materials has always proved challenging due to the lack of simple ...
Uncertainty modeling and analysis of aerospace structures
Aerospace structures are different from other structures due to the difference in the required
properties for an aerospace application. The primary motivation of this kind of structure lies in
its lightweight nature, ...
Blast Mitigation Strategies for Marine Sandwich Structures
Blast mitigation is being researched from the time of world war II. There were full field blast tests and analytical studies on the performance of monolithic structures to mitigate blast load. Sandwich structures were also ...
Molecular dynamics investigations of the bacterial cell envelope: Elucidating differential barriers for antimicrobials
The bacterial cell envelopes possess a complex multilayered architecture exhibiting
unique properties evolved to regulate interactions with the external environment
and molecules with antimicrobial properties. A molecular ...
FLIPP-NAAT: A paper-based LAMP assay for point-of-care TB detection
Molecular diagnostic techniques like polymerase chain reaction (PCR) revolutionized the world of healthcare. Instead of waiting for infectious agents to physically grow as in conventional culture-based tests, genetic ...
Development of a coarsening resistant microstructure in precipitation strengthened aluminium alloys with Zr, Ta and Hf
The work herein aims at developing precipitation-strengthened aluminium-copper (Al-Cu) alloys that can meet the current challenges of the aeronautical and automobile sectors to increase the fuel efficiency where operating ...
Wave Propagation in Adhesively Bonded Single Lap Joints: Solution of Forward and Inverse Problems
The use of adhesives for bonding composites as well as metals is rapidly increasing since it provides uniform load transfer and is free of stress concentration seen around the drilled holes in bolted or riveted joints. ...
