In this paper, a unique approach to correlate influence of doping on ionic mobility, through thermo-kinetic analysis, is reported. Formation kinetics of Li2TiO3 and Li4Ti5O12, with Mo+6 doping, were successfully analyzed ...

Using computational modeling, we show that self-oscillating Belousov–Zhabotinsky (BZ) gels can both emit and sense a chemical signal and thus drive neighboring gel pieces to spontaneously self-aggregate, so that the system ...

Hybridization of metal NPs with redox-switchable polymer supports not only mitigates their aggregation, but also introduces interfacial electron pathways desirable for catalysis and numerous other applications. The large ...

Seismic hazard assessment is the key tool for rational planning, safety and design of infrastructures in seismically vulnerable regions. Gujarat is the only state in peninsular India with the maximum seismic hazard of large ...

The rheology of self-assembled elongated iron oxyhydroxide (FeOOH) and spherical silica (SiO2) particles in hexagonal (H1) liquid crystal (LC) phase of water and non-ionic surfactant C12E9 is investigated by varying particle ...

Clostridium acetobutylicum exhibits a two-step metabolic pathway where substrates are first converted to organic acids accompanied by a decrease in pH. The acids are then assimilated to organic solvents. The transition ...

Plants have a great potential to grow while carrying inside them fungi and bacteria known as endophytes. These endophytes have a potential to produce bioactive molecules which are of immense pharmaceutical importance. In ...

The rapid development of self-assembly approaches has enabled the creation of materials with desired organization of nanoscale components. However, achieving dynamic control, wherein the system can be transformed on demand ...

The modeling of moving objects has been the focus of many studies and has succeeded to attract sufficient attention by researchers. However, commonly used modeling approaches such as discrete element modeling (DEM), direct ...

In this work, a simple criterion is proposed for prediction of a long-term stability of aqueous suspensions of ultrafine particles of a poorly water soluble drug, curcumin. A new “stability parameter” (γ0ε/γε0) has been ...
