Fracture and Fatigue Behaviour of Notched Plain Concrete Beams: The Role of Theory of Critical Distances and Acoustic Emission
Concrete structures, including buildings, bridges, pavements, and offshore structures, face a wide range of loading conditions, both static and cyclic. When subjected to fatigue loading, the response of concrete elements ... -
Renormalization Group Summation at High Orders and Implications to the Determination of Some Standard Model Parameters
In perturbation theory, predictions from theories like Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) are obtained by evaluating Feynman diagrams to high orders. Such calculations for re sults for various processes are already available ... -
Studies on chalcopyrite phosphides and phenolic acid-based derivatives towards lithium storage and chemical sensors
Li-ion batteries are among the highly promising power sources for many emerging technologies, including electric vehicles and smart grids. However, an increased demand for energy density and long cycle life cannot be ... -
Two-dimensional layered materials integrated with oxide semiconductor-based hybrid devices for broadband photodetector applications
Photodetectors find their applications in several arenas such as that of bio-integrated electronics, health monitoring, high-definition imaging, remote controls, spectroscopy, and others. Therefore, photodetectors play an ... -
Structural insights into the organization and channel behavior of Pannexin isoforms
Pannexins are large-pore ion channels structurally related to Connexins and Innexins but remain as hemichannels to release cellular ATP upon activation. Pannexins comprise three isoforms, Pannexin1, 2, and 3, with diverse ... -
Fragile Interpretations and Interpretable models in NLP
Deploying deep learning models in critical areas where the cost of making a wrong decision leads to a substantial financial loss, like in the banking domain, or even loss of life, like in the medical field, is significantly ... -
Stress-Assisted Pitting Corrosion Studies in Metallic Structures Using Advanced Modeling Methodologies
Pitting corrosion poses a significant threat to deepwater oil and gas production facilities, yet our current understanding of its impact on specific systems such as steel catenary riser (SCR), tensioned leg platforms (TLP), ... -
Prompt and Displaced Signatures of Physics Beyond the Standard Model
The quest to understand our Universe’s fundamental particles and their interactions has led us to the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics. Despite successfully explaining the weak, electromagnetic, and strong ... -
Tailoring Van – der – Waal materials for nonlinear nanophotonics
Van der Waals or two-dimensional (2D) material are emerging nanomaterials which has shown tremendous potential in building next-generation nonlinear optical devices. Monolayer and multilayer 2D materials exhibit strong ... -
Room Temperature Phosphorescence and Circularly Polarized Luminescence Characteristics of Phosphine Oxides and Phosphoramides
Room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials have attracted much attention in recent years owing to their potential applications in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), security writing, time-gated bio-imaging, ... -
A Ligase IV/XRCC4-dependent single strand break repair pathway for the maintenance of A/T-rich regions during DNA replication in mammals
The DNA in our cells is under constant threat from various exogenous and endogenous sources. To ensure error free and faithful transmission of hereditary material, human cells employ several DNA repair pathways. Mammalian ... -
Investigating Instability Mitigation through Flame Oscillator Synchronization
Stringent emission regulations for reducing NOx and soot emissions are driving gas turbine combustors manufacturers to adopt lean premixed combustion technology. However, the rich dynamics of turbulent, lean premixed ... -
Inverse Material Design using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks and Ontology
Materials design is the process of tailoring materials with specific properties and performance characteristics to meet the particular needs of an application. It involves going back on the process-structure-property (PSP) ... -
Dereverberation of Speech Using Autoregressive Models of Sub-band Envelopes
