Simple and convenient measurement of RBC deformability using QCM integrated with a novel model of cell viscoelasticity (2018)
Journal Article
© 2018 Elsevier B.V. It is well-established that alterations in cell morphology are regulated by cell signalling pathways, with the qualitative and quantitative monitoring of these intrinsic processes being of potential diagnostic value. Moreover, th... Read More about Simple and convenient measurement of RBC deformability using QCM integrated with a novel model of cell viscoelasticity.
Slat broadband noise prediction of multi-element 30P30N airfoil by a hybrid RANS-LES method (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
This paper presents a combined CFD and CAA study to assess the slat noise emissions from a multi-element 30P30N airfoil at the 5-degree and 8-degree angle of attack, using a hybrid RANS-LES method. In this simulation, the structured mesh is used and... Read More about Slat broadband noise prediction of multi-element 30P30N airfoil by a hybrid RANS-LES method.
Aeroacoustics investigation of a harmonically morphing trailing edge flap (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
In this paper, an aeroacoustic study of a NACA 0012 airfoil fitted with a morphing Trailing Edge Flap (TEF) was performed at conditions of an Angle of Attack (AoA) = 4º, Reynolds number = 0.62×10^6 and Mach number = 0.11. A modified parametrization m... Read More about Aeroacoustics investigation of a harmonically morphing trailing edge flap.
Micro-habitat distribution drives patch quality for sub-tropical rocky plateau amphibians in the northern Western Ghats, India (2018)
Journal Article
The importance of patch quality for amphibians is frequently overlooked in distribution models. Here we demonstrate that it is highly important for the persistence of endemic and endangered amphibians found in the threatened and fragile ecosystems th...
