Soft robotics, inspired by nature, is a trending research area that is based on material science and the available mechanism (pneumatic, thermal, magnetic, electrostatic, etc.) to activate them. In the recent past, polylactic ...

The fibre of engineering education has evolved from knowledge to competencies. This is a logical consequence of the technologically advanced and multifaceted learning environment where engineers are expected to be technically ...

Heat transfer behavior of laminar flow inside circular duct with centre-cleared twin twisted tape (CTTT) swirl generator was investigated numerically. The governing equations were solved with a finite-volume-based numerical ...

This study aims to explore the sensing capabilities of polyvinylidene fluoride-hydroxyapatite-chitosan (PVDF-HAP-CS) composite-based hernia mesh implants (of conformal/planar design), followed by in-vitro analysis for ...

This Special Issue of Journal of Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry contains a selection of research articles related to the contributions presented at the 48th National Conference on Fluid Mechanics and Fluid Power (FMFP ...

This chapter presents a comprehensive overview of 4D printing, including the process fundamentals, materials, techniques, challenges, and applications.

High-quality academic publishing is built on rigorous peer review. Fluids was able to uphold its high standards for published papers due to the outstanding efforts of our reviewers. Thanks to the efforts of our reviewers ...

Design can substantially affect the life cycle of a product. During design there is a need to consider the whole life cycle rather than a single phase of a product life cycle. Different approaches on life cycle design are ...

This paper summarizes the developments in humanoid robotics by Team AcYut of Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani. This paper is submitted as a prerequisite for participation in TeenSize Hu- manoid Soccer ...

Cross-machine fault detection is crucial due to the challenges of data labeling. While domain adaptation methods facilitate diagnosis across rotating machines, they often require data sharing, which is impractical due to ...
