Polymeric microparticles with controlled morphologies and sizes are being studied by researchers in many applications, such as for drug release, healthcare and cosmetics. Herein, spherical and porous polymeric microparticles ...

We study the phase shifts of propagating slow magnetoacoustic waves in solar coronal loops invoking the effects of thermal conductivity, compressive viscosity, radiative losses, and heating–cooling imbalance. We derive the ...

The present article illustrates the green synthesis of novel carbon quantum dots (CQDs) from biomass viz. Tagetes erecta (TE), and subsequently fabrication of a metal ion probe for the sensing of Fe3+ in real samples. ...

This paper evaluates the efficiency of existing pedestrian facilities in Ludhiana, Punjab (India) using the Pedestrian Level of Service (PLOS) model. Assessment of the PLOS is essential in analysing the factors that lead ...

Airborne transmission is one of the routes for the spread of COVID-19 which is caused by inhalation of smaller droplets1 containing SARS-CoV-2 (i.e., either virus-laden particulate matter: PM and/or droplet nuclei) in an ...

This paper describes the controller design aspects of DFIG-based wind turbine system (WTS) using gravitational search algorithm (GSA). The appropriate control schemes are required for efficient and reliable functioning of ...

Few inadverdent errors occurred while typesetting the article, specifically in sections “Conclusions” and “Acknowledgements”, as listed below: 1. The last paragraph of the section “Conclusions” in the published version is ...

The paper represents a comprehensive review of the wind farm layout and reliability assessment of the wind farm integrated electrical power system. The authors have done a review on the proliferation of renewable energy ...

Tuning deformation mechanisms is imperative to overcome the well-known strength-ductility paradigm. Twinning-induced plasticity (TWIP), transformation-induced plasticity (TRIP) and precipitate hardening have been investigated ...

Background: Gloriosa superba L. (Colchicaceae) is a high-value medicinal plant indigenous to Africa and Southeast Asia. Its therapeutic benefits are well-established in traditional medicines including Ayurveda. It is well ...
