Encapsulation is used to preserve/protect various substances within another material at microscale sizes (microencapsulation) and at nanoscale sizes (nanoencapsulation). The material encapsulated is referred to as the ‘core’ whereas the encapsulates is referred to as the ‘shell’. The core material for different nanocapsules differs in size, shape a...

The global unmanned aerial systems (UAS) sector for public safety is evolving fast, driven by breakthroughs in autonomous flight and the urgent need for real-time situational awareness. Fire departments, law enforcement, disaster response teams, and medical services are increasingly turning to drone-based solutions to boost agility, cut response ti...

Non-destructive testing (NDT) is the process of inspecting, testing, or assessing materials, components, sub-assemblies, and assemblies for defects (surface and sub-surface level defects) that can compromise product quality and/or cause premature product failures. Industries (process and discrete) have used NDT for decades to ensure the quality of ...

Changing regulatory landscapes significantly impact the chemical industry s evolution in technological advancement, product development, vertical integration, and consolidation activities. In a recent Frost & Sullivan report titled The Impact of Regulations on the Chemical Industry (PE52), we found that one of the key areas of regulation is in P...

Managing the security risks of serverless applications is not the responsibility of the cloud providers. In the shared responsibility model, cloud providers manage the security risks of the platform and cloud resources that enable serverless applications. Managing the security risks of the application layer resides squarely with the application own...

The transition towards a sustainable energy eco-system with e-mobility and renewable energy integrated power grids require efficient energy storage solutions. As of now the most promising candidate of choice has been the Lithium-ion battery (LIB) chemistry, in which, a graphite anode is paired with a lithium cobalt oxide cathode, offering high ener...
