Superconductivity is the disappearance of DC electrical resistance in a material when it is cooled to a certain critical temperature, when a material changes from normal state to superconducting state when it is cooled ...

Sloping regions of the earth’s crust have formed part of human settlements from time immemorial. However, these regions are prone to geological hazards especially mass wasting processes such as debris flows and landslips. ...

Motivated by the performance of reduced Titania in various important applications including photo-catalysis, photo-voltaics and CO2 reduction in hydrocarbon fuels, a systematic study of the structural properties and the ...

Nickel Oxide (NiO) has many applications in solar energy utilization, due to variations in electronic, optical and magnetic properties. However, a satisfactory description of its properties is still not available. There ...

Ring resonators are key components in modern optical networks. Their small size allows high density integration in optical photonic circuits due to the use of high index contrast. Ring resonator filters based Optical Filters ...

In this Thesis crystallization of a hard-sphere assembly of fermions with densities ranging from low to high values has been theoretically investigated, the fermions are very close to each other, and the interaction between ...

Wind energy is increasingly becoming popular all over the world as a green energy source for electricity generation since it is renewable and environmentally friendly. Pioneer wind turbines for electricity generation ...

Products in many disciplines frequently involve blending two or more ingredients together. The design factors in a mixture experiment are the proportions of the components of a blend, and the response variables vary ...

Distributed fibre optic sensing presents unique features that have no match in conventional sensing techniques. The ability to measure temperatures and strain at thousands of points along a single mode fibre is ...

Vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) are now major optical sources in optical communication and technology. The VCSEL-based transmission systems satisfy the next generation optical fibre access networks ...
