    الوصف: The effect of dispersing oil palm leaf-based porous carbon quantum dots (OPL QDs) in nematic liquid crystal p-methoxybenzylidene p-decylaniline (MBDA) has been studied in this paper. The dielectric properties were measured with and without bias voltage as a function of frequency and temperature. Electro-optical parameters like response time, rotational viscosity and birefringence have also been studied with respect to temperature and OPL QDs concentration. The main findings show that when the dispersion of OPL QDs increases, the sign of dielectric anisotropy changes. Fall time has been found to be faster than the rise time for pure MBDA, composites 1 and 2, while composites 3 to 5 have faster rise time than fall time. This has been due to a change in the sign of dielectric anisotropy that begins from composite 3. UV-VIS absorbance and photoluminescence studies have been carried out which demonstrates the existence of π–π* transition. The remarkable outcomes of this work can be applied in the display and photonics field. Dielectric and electro-optical characterization has been reported for MBDA-OPL composite systems. Reversal in the sign of dielectric anisotropy starts from composite 3. Faster response with reduced rotational viscosity has been revealed.

    الوصف: Hyperbolic metamaterial (HMM) based absorber comprising metasurface having periodically arranged hafnium nitride nanodisks was investigated. The constitutive and absorption properties of the structure were evaluated considering different parametric and operational conditions. Both the TE- and TM-incidence waves were studied along with different incidence and polarization angles. Using the finite integration technique, the absorber was found to exhibit high (polarization insensitive) ultrawideband absorption. With such features, the proposed HMM has prospects in developing plasmonic devices to enhance solar cell efficiency and other optical applications.

    الوصف: We have investigated the pressure (P) effect on structural (up to 10 GPa), transport [R(T): up to 10 GPa], and magnetic [(M(T): up to 1 GPa)] properties and analyzed the flux pinning mechanism of the Fe0.99Mn0.01Se0.5Te0.5 superconductor. The maximum superconducting transition temperature (T c) of 22 K with the P coefficient of T c dT c/dP = +2.6 K/GPa up to 3 GPa (dT c/dP = -3.6 K/GPa, 3 ≤ P ≥ 9 GPa) was evidenced from R(T) measurements. The high-pressure diffraction and density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal structural phase transformation from tetragonal to hexagonal at 5.9 GPa, and a remarkable change in the unit cell volume is observed at ∼3 GPa where the T c starts to decrease, which may be due to the reduction of charge carriers, as evidenced by a reduction in the density of states (DOS) close to the Fermi level. At higher pressures of 7.7 GPa ≤ P ≥ 10.2 GPa, a mixed phase (tetragonal + hexagonal phase) is observed, and the T c completely vanishes at 9 GPa. A significant enhancement in the critical current density (J C) is observed due to the increase of pinning centers induced by external pressure. The field dependence of the critical current density under pressure shows a crossover from the δl pinning mechanism (at 0 GPa) to the δT c pinning mechanism (at 1.2 GPa). The field dependence of the pinning force at ambient condition and under pressure reveals the dense point pinning mechanism of Fe0.99Mn0.01Se0.5Te0.5. Moreover, both upper critical field (H C2) and J C are enhanced significantly by the application of an external P and change over to a high P phase (hexagonal ∼5.9 GPa) faster than a Fe0.99Ni0.01Se0.5Te0.5 (7.7 GPa) superconductor.

    الوصف: In this project, it was chosen to investigate a specific piston design and its maximum gas pressure capabilities. The first aim for this project is to create a piston model using the solid modelling software CATIA V5. The geometry will be meshed and analyzed using the ANSYS software. A thorough literature search was conducted for the examination of piston input circumstances and the analytical process. High combustion gas pressures operate as mechanical loads, causing substantial strains in the piston's critical area. For various loading situations, such as maximum gas pressure load, a detailed static structural analysis is carried out. To choose the best material, a comparative research is carried out. Relative examination is never really dominated material. A cylinder is a mechanical part found in an assortment of cycles like pneumatic chambers. Responding siphons, responding motors and gas blowers. It is the upward development inside a chamber that is put away gastight by cylinder .In the auto business, it is found that the cylinder is the most fundamental part of the motor, and that it is presented to serious mechanical and warm loads. Warm burdens are initiated in the cylinder because of the exceptionally high temperature differential between the cylinder crown and the cooling displays. The cylinders are regularly built of aluminum due to its lightweight and heat conductivity. Be that as it may, as a result of its low hot strength and high development coefficient, it isn't suggested for use in high-temperature applications. The reason for a section bar or potentially an associating bar in a motor is to move power from growing gas to the barrel shaped shaft through an interfacing bar and additionally segment pole. To pack or remove the liquid put away in the chamber, the siphons turned around the capacity of the cylinder and communicate power from driving rod to it. In the initial step the primary examination of a common cylinder developed of the aluminum composite is concentrated in this exploration. The subsequent advance is to direct an investigation on a cylinder developed of Aluminum and Cast iron. Lightweight, minimal expense, primarily and thermally safe materials ought to be used in the development of pistons in the third step Validation of investigation result with contrasting the traditional material.

    الوصف: The spontaneous progress in scientific bases to combat infections resulting from pathogenic microbial colonies has led to the development of nanomaterials capped with plant phytochemicals that possess exceptional bacterial growth resistance. In this study, the Authors report an economical biogenic synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles and its nanocomposites with silver, gold, and silver-gold bimetal to evaluate their antibacterial potency towards bacterial colonies. Further, these nanomaterials were functionalized with tea-phytochemicals for cost-effective synthesis, as a biogenic capping and reducing agent, for modulating the growth kinetics of nanomaterials, and because of their synergy with the nanomaterials in improving their antibacterial property. The identification of the biosynthesized nanomaterials was performed through various microscopic and spectroscopic techniques. The model microbes chosen to undergo this study were Escherichia coli, a gram-negative bacterium, and Staphylococcus aureus, a gram-positive bacterium. Based on the anti-bacterial essay, certain factors, such as the nature of the bacteria and nanomaterials, the production rates of superoxide radicals, etc. determined the extent of microbial growth inhibition.

    الوصف: Both CaH2 and MgH2 are good candidate for the development of hydrogen storage materials because of their high hydrogen storage capacity. However, both the hydrides are quite stable thermodynamically and required high temperature for hydrogen sorption process. The MgH2–CaH2 composite could show the favourable hydrogen sorption reaction because of Ca–Mg intermetallic formation. The idea motivated to perform the experiments starting with these metal hydrides. It has been found that the hydrogen sorption reaction kinetics improved substantially. The dihydrogen product has shown a few intermetallic of magnesium and calcium. The hydrogen sorption temperature and pressure of the alloy was remarkably improved by the doping with ZrCl4 as a catalyst. The activation energy and the thermodynamic parameters of un-catalyzed and catalyzed alloy were studied. Present studied indicated that the CaH2–MgH2–ZrCl4 could be a potential candidate for the mobile hydrogen storage system.

    الوصف: A significant proportion of recently approved drug molecules possess poor aqueous solubility which further restrains their desired bioavailability. Poor aqueous solubility of these drugs poses significant hurdles in development of novel drug delivery systems and achieving target response. Self-emulsifying drug delivery systems (SEDDS) emerged as an insightful approach for delivering highly hydrophobic entities to enhance their bioavailability. Conventional SEDDS were developed in a liquid form which owned numerous shortcomings like low stability and drug loading efficiency, fewer choices of dosage forms and irreversible precipitation of drug or excipients. To address these curbs solid-SEDDS (S-SEDDS) was introduced as an efficient strategy that combined advantages of solid dosage forms such as increased stability, portability and patient compliance along with substantial improvement in the bioavailability. S-SEDDS are isotropic mixtures of oil, surfactant, solvent and co-solvents generated by solidification of liquid or semisolid self-emulsifying ingredients onto powders. The present review highlights components of S-SEDDS, their peculiarities to be considered while designing solid dosage forms and various methods of fabrication. Lastly, key challenges faced during development, applications and future directions for the research in this area are thoroughly summarized.
