Internal Lattice Structure and Local Order of Ge Atoms Structure in Amorphous Mn doping GeTe Thin Films
Abstract: Phase-change Magnetic materials (PCMMs) represent the leading candidates for universal data storage devices, which exploit the large difference in the physical properties of their transitional lattice structures. Here, an experimental study was done to investigate the internal lattice structure and local order of Ge atoms in amorphous Mn doping GeTe thin films. The microstructure of the as-deposited films of Ge1-xMnxTe thin films (with x = 0.06, 0.13, 0.52 and 0.61) …

Optimization of Operational Parameters for Production of Bio-ethanol from Red Gram Straw
Abstract: AbstractBio-alcohol is a neat and cleaner source of energy, which could be obtained from locally available biomass. However, the complex structure of lignocellulose in biomass makes a primary protective barrier that prevents cell destruction. In order to break down this structure for the conversion of biomass to fuel ethanol, the cellulose and hemicellulosic materials must be broken down to corresponding monomers (sugars). It could be done easily with acid hydrolysis …

Role of Strontium in Structural and Dielectric characterstics of Barium Titanate
Abstract: Ba₀.₇₅Sr₀.₂₅TiO₃ (BST) compound was synthesized through the conventional solid-state reaction methodology, aimed at investigating its structural, microstructural, and dielectric characteristics. The structural characterization was executed employing X-ray diffraction (XRD), and the resultant diffraction patterns were refined utilizing the Rietveld method, which substantiated the establishment of a single-phase perovskite configuration exhibiting tetragonal symmetry and belonging to the P4mm space group. The refined lattice parameters revealed subtle distortions correlating with the substitution …

The Rise of Fractional Calculus: Novel Applications in Engineering and Biological Systems
Abstract: Fractional calculus (FC) is an advanced mathematical framework that generalizes the classical concepts of differentiation and integration to non-integer, or fractional, orders. This extension of traditional calculus allows for the modeling of complex dynamic systems that exhibit behavior not easily captured by integer-order differential equations. Over the last few decades, fractional calculus has seen a rapid rise in popularity, particularly in applied mathematics, engineering, and biological sciences, due to its …

Development and Mechanical Characterization of Polymer based Bio Composite Filaments for FDM Applications
Abstract: Additive Manufacturing (AM) is an advanced fabrication process capable of producing complex and intricate components to meet diverse industrial and customer demands. For small-scale producers and researchers, FDM is the most straightforward, affordable, and easily accessible of the several AM processes. The majority of conventional polymer feedstocks used in FDM lack sufficient mechanical strength and thermal stability, which limits their use in load-bearing or structural components. This effort aims to …

pH-Responsive Smart Polymer Nanocomposites for Anti-Corrosive Coatings
Abstract: Metallic corrosion under adverse marine and industrial conditions imposes gigantic financial burdens and risks worldwide. Conventional waterproofing waterborne epoxy has passive barrier protection, but is also inherently microporous, lacking intrinsic repair ability against mechanical damage and thus rapidly decays. This is a critical gap that this work tries to bridge by designing a new pH-responsive hybrid polymer nanocomposite by using polyethyleneimine-tannic acid-cerium functionalized boron nitrate nanosheets with chitosan-capped mesoporous silica …
