Design and Development of Onion Storage Shade for Better Ventilation and Longer Life
Abstract: Onions are one of the most important cash crops for farmers in India and many other countries. However, most harvested onions are lost every year due to improper storage. Traditional storage methods, such as keeping onions in heaps under trees, in closed rooms, or in poorly ventilated sheds, do not provide sufficient airflow. As a result, moisture accumulates, leading to sprouting, fungal growth, rotting, and physical damage. These losses reduce …

Electrochemical Evaluation of Corrosion Behavior in Industrial Alloys Under Acidic and Marine Conditions
Abstract: Corrosion represents a spontaneous physicochemical transformation in which metals revert to their more stable thermodynamic state, typically oxides, hydroxides, or sulfides, as a result of interaction with environmental elements. Rather than being a simple surface reaction, corrosion is a complex electrochemical phenomenon that significantly influences the durability, reliability, and performance of metallic structures across industrial, marine, and domestic sectors. The consequences extend beyond material degradation, contributing to substantial economic losses, …
