Direct Numerical Simulations and Fluctuating Force Simulations of Turbulent Particle-gas Suspensions
(2018-05-18)Turbulent gas-particle suspensions are of great practical importance in many naturally phenomena, such as dust storms and snow avalanches, as well as in industrial applications such as fluidised, circulating bed reactors ... -
DNA-based fluorescent reporters for biosensing and lipid dynamics
With the growth of DNA nanotechnology, significant efforts have been made to expand the chemical functionality of DNA beyond the genetic code carrier. By leveraging the specificity of the interactions and modularity afforded, ... -
Droplet Isothermal Amplification For Nucleic Acid Quantification
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 ... -
Droplet Microfluidics for Nucleic Acid Quantification and Single Cell Analysis
Droplet microfluidics provides controlled generation of monodispersed droplets of the order of a few picoliters in multiphase microfluidic systems. These droplets are employed as micro-reactors to conduct chemical/biochemical ... -
Dynamics and Rheology of Non-colloidal Suspensions: Active and Soft Deformable Particles
Classical works on the suspensions of rigid spherical and ellipsoidal particles have been carried out by Einstein and Jeffery. However, in nature and industry, we come across materials that are either deformable or active. ... -
Dynamics of gas bubbles in liquids
The study of bubble formation in liquids is of great importance because of its application in the design of many industrial bubble contactors like distillation columns, bubble cap columns, absorption towers, reactors, extraction ... -
Electrochemical - Morphological Evolution of the Positive Electrode in Autonomous Soluble Lead Redox Flow Batteries
The world is witnessing a transition where reliance on renewable energy is increasing. As of 2025, the renewable electricity capacity has risen to roughly 5000 GW (from 2000 GW in 2010). This progressive growth is to be ... -
Engineering Analysis Of Pichia Pastoris Fermentation
(2010-07-14)In recent years, several industrial yeasts, owing to their robust growth and certain other characteristics, have been developed as recombinant host systems for commercial production of heterologous proteins. One such ... -
Engineering the N-Glycosylation Pathway in Pichia Pastoris for the Expression of Glycoprotein Hormones
(2018-01-15)Proteins, participating in a myriad of biological function, are at the core of all cellular activities occurring within living organisms. Therapeutic proteins, hence constitute a major part of the pharmaceutical industry. ... -
Enzymatic reactions in supercritical carbon dioxide
Lipases are enzymes that are widely used to catalyze a variety of industrially important reactions. However, lipase-catalyzed reactions are heterogeneous and are mass-transfer limited. Therefore, in most cases, the rates ... -
Enzymatic synthesis of esters in supercritical fluids
Lipases are enzymes that are widely used to catalyze a variety of industrially important reactions. However, lipase?catalyzed reactions are heterogeneous and mass?transfer limited. Therefore, in most cases the reaction ... -
Estimation of thermophysical properties of binary organic solutions- surface tensions
Thermophysical properties present an interesting field of research to understand molecular nature and behaviour. The primary reason is that these properties mirror any change at the molecular level. One such property is ... -
Estimation of thermophysical properties of organic liquids: diffusion coefficients and excess volumes.
The objective of this work is to experimentally determine the thermophysical properties such as diffusion coefficients and excess volumes of mixing of some organic liquids, specifically of binary systems involving the ... -
Evaluating Nanoporous Graphene for Enhanced Evaporation-Based Separations using Molecular Dynamics Simulations
Amidst the plethora of separation processes used in chemical industries, water purification and bioethanol production are important, given their critical role in mitigating water scarcity and developing sustainable energy ... -
Experimental Determination And New Correlations For Multi-Component Solid Solubilities In Supercritical Carbon Dioxide
(2016-03-02)The fluids that are operated above their critical temperature and pressure are known as supercritical fluids (SCFs). SCFs replaces the conventional organic solvents in the chemical processes due to their attractive ... -
Experimental study of the flow of granular media through a horizontal screw feeder system
A significant fraction of the materials handled in the chemical, food-processing, and pharmaceutical industries are particulate in nature. Screw feeder systems are often employed in such scenarios to achieve their bulk ... -
Exploring water dynamics and gas separations in graphene oxide surfaces and nanopores
Graphene oxide (GO) is a chemically functionalized graphene with various oxygen-containing functional groups, such as epoxy (-O-), hydroxyl (-OH), and carboxyl (-COOH) on the basal plane. As a consequence, GOs have hydrophilic ... -
Flexible Nanostructured Hydrogen Sensors
Hydrogen is rapidly emerging as a key energy carrier and industrial feedstock in the global transition to cleaner energy systems. However, due to its high diffusivity and flammability, even minor leaks can result in ... -
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 ...
