Nucleic acid quantification (NAQ) is extensively employed for gene expression analysis, monitoring viral loads, detecting rare or dysfunctional cells, and assessing treatment regimes. The gold standard, quantitative ...

The sense of touch, along with the other senses, decides the perception of world around us. We touch, grip, and wear various products in our day-to-day life, be it the constant interaction we have with our mobile phones, ...

Organic photovoltaic (OPV) modules are flexible, light weight, transparent and thin compared to other emerging photovoltaic technologies, making them well-suited for applications ranging from solar windows to fabrics. A ...

The swimming motion of fishes have long fascinated scientists and engineers. Over the past few decades, researchers have studied physical models mimicking the tail beat of fishes in an effort to extract key physical ...

Chemical weathering of continental silicate rocks releases cations and anions which are eventually precipitated as carbonates on the ocean floor. This entire process transfers carbon from the atmosphere to the oceans leading ...

The thesis entitled “EMI shielding materials derived from epoxy based nanocomposites” systematically studies the effect of CF and surface modified CF on the EMI shielding of epoxy composites. In addition, to target the ...

Liquid jets in cross flows (JICF) have been an important part of spray research in the last few decades owing to the wide spectrum of applications ranging from agricultural sprays to aircraft gas turbine engines. However, ...

Bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) exhibit attractive properties such as high strength and resilience. However, they display negligible tensile ductility due to catastrophic crack propagation inside a dominant shear band (SB). ...

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 ...
