Platinum overlayers characterization and fabrication via self-terminating electrodeposition
Hydrogen is considered a promising alternative fuel for the future. However, despite its perception as a “zero-carbon” energy carrier, fossil fuels remain the primary feedstocks for hydrogen production, involving significant ...
Micromechanics of Wedge and Cone Indentation of Metallic Specimens with Subsurface Voids
Near-surface voids and pores occur in metal parts manufactured by processes as diverse as casting, powder metallurgy, and additive manufacturing. These pores range in size from a few microns to a few mm, depending on the ...
Longitudinal Acceleration-based Variable Speed Bio-inspired Guidance Law
Most analyses of existing interceptor guidance laws assume the interceptor speed to be constant, which simplifies mathematical analysis and enhances predictability in interception characteristics. In reality, this is not ...
Ecology of the terrestrial carbon cycle: Influence of climate and animals
The terrestrial carbon (C) cycle involves fluxes between multiple pools that determine ecosystem functions and regulate global climate. These fluxes and pools are influenced by changes in abiotic (temperature, precipitation ...
Effects of 3d Morphological Characteristics of Sand on Multi-scale Intergranular and Sand-geosynthetic Interactions
To understand the process of mobilization of shear strength in sands and sand-geosynthetic interfaces at a fundamental level, it is essential to precisely characterize the size and shape of the grains and the shear-induced ...
Arabian Sea High Salinity Core in the Bay of Bengal
The Summer Monsoon Current (SMC) advects high salinity water from the Arabian Sea into the Bay of Bengal (BoB) during the summer monsoon. This high salinity water subducts and enters the BoB as a subsurface high salinity ...
Advancements in Nucleic Acid Lateral Flow Assay
In recent decades, the demand for rapid and precise nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs)
has grown significantly, driven by the need to address pandemics like COVID-19 and diagnose
infectious diseases such as ...
An investigation into the axial dipole field and mantle-induced heterogeneity in Earth
The Earth’s axial dipole field is generated by dynamo action in the planet’s outer core. It is understood from observations that the convection in the outer core is influenced by the lateral heterogeneity in the overlying ...
Paper-Based Point-of-Care Diagnostic Tools: Electrokinetic Nucleic Acid Extraction and Saliva-Based Glucose Detection for Diabetes Monitoring
Currently, we face a global challenge posed by the dual burden of chronic diseases such as diabetes and infectious diseases such as tuberculosis (TB). Low-and middle-income countries are disproportionately overburdened by ...
Low–Speed Impact Mechanics and Fragmentation of Wooden Panels: Characterization of Indian Woods
Low–speed impact (LSI) of brittle structural panels by rigid bodies causes significant damage, evident in familiar scenarios like the breaking of monolithic and laminated glass panes due to stone pelting, punching a hole ...
