Monitoring and Control of Intermittent Water Distribution Network
Millions of people in low and middle-income countries worldwide receive water only for a small fraction of the time in a day through piped networks. Even though the percentage of the world’s population with access to piped ... -
Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and cellular cooperation in cancer progression: Novel roles for AMPK
Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a developmental program hijacked by cancer cells to facilitate metastasis —a multi-step process involving the spread of cancer cells from the primary tumor site and culminating ... -
Underwater Acoustic Communications: Algorithms for Delay-Scale Spread Wideband Channels
In wideband wireless communication systems, the relative motion of the transmitter, receiver, or scatterers in the medium causes the Doppler effect, which stretches or compresses the transmitted waveforms, resulting in ... -
Comparative Analysis of Topological Structures
Measuring scientific processes result in a set of scalar functions (scalar fields) which may be related temporally, be part of an ensemble, or unrelated. Overall understanding and visualization of scientific processes ... -
Study on optical and electrical transport properties of twisted bilayer transition metal dichalcogenides
Van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures, where dissimilar atomically thin vdW crystals are vertically assembled, have initiated a new paradigm to create flexible multifunctional devices. Despite the weak nature of vdW ... -
Enabling Lithium Metal Anode for Garnet Electrolyte based Solid State Batteries
Solid-state lithium metal batteries (SSLMB) employing inorganic solid electrolytes (ISE) in conjunction with lithium metal anode and intercalation cathode are considered among the most promising alternatives for Li-ion ... -
Multi-connectivity for Urllc and Coexistence with Embb in Time-varying and Fading Channels
Ultra-reliable and low latency communications (URLLC) is a novel use case of 5G. It has challenging requirements like such as low block error rates (BLERs) and stringent latency targets. Multi-connectivity, in which multiple ... -
Boolean Functional Synthesis using Gated Continuous Logic Networks
Boolean Functional Synthesis (BFS) is a well-known challenging problem in the domain of automated program synthesis from logical specifications. This problem aims to synthesize a Boolean function that is correct-by-construction ... -
Understanding Catchment Scale Processes: Hydrological Modelling and Information-Theoretic Approaches
Catchments are complex environmental systems, and they serve as the fundamental units for hydrological classification. They are self-organizing systems whose form, drainage network, ground and channel slopes, channel ... -
