Environmental pollution and energy storage are two important issues in the modern day society. In this regard, Carbon nanomaterials have attained immense importance, due to their high surface area and electrical conductivity ...

Recently, the fields of energy conversion and storage have drawn great interests in the research community due to the wide range of practical applications in the society. Among them, photodetector (PD) and supercapacitor ...

UV light detection has a lot of applications including secured satellite communication, solar and celestial observation and biological imaging. Wide bandgap materials are used to sense UV light. SiC is an excellent material ...

Many scientific data sets are contaminated by noise, either because of data acquisition process, or because of naturally occurring phenomena. A first step in analyzing such data sets is denoising, i.e., removing additive ...

Failed fuel refers to the breach in the fuel-clad of an irradiated fuel assembly in a nuclear reactor. Neutron detection or gamma detection is commonly used in Failed Fuel Detection and Locating (FFDL) system to monitor ...

Among the five human basic senses, touch is thought to be the sense that makes the world 'real' to us. Tactile sensors are a category of artificial sensors that acquire information through physical touch. Tactile sensors ...

This thesis describes the development of light-based, non-interfering interrogation tools for quantitative assessment of density variations in hypersonic flows over the test models of interest in aerodynamics. Since flow ...

Vortex tube (VT) is a mechanical device with no moving parts. The fundamental principle of Vortex Tube is that it can split an incoming fluid flow of a constant pressure and constant temperature gas stream into two separate ...

Now-a-days sensors are not limited only to industry or research laboratories but have come to common man’s usage. From kids toys to house hold equipment like washing machine, microwave oven as well as in automobiles, a ...
