Particle image velocimetry measurements of blood flow in aneurysms using 3D printed flow phantoms

Tshimanga, Ilunga Jeanmark (2019-11)

Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) remain one of the leading causes of deaths worldwide. The formation and presence of aneurysm is a very important question in the study of this CVDs. An aneurysm is a balloon-like bulge on a ...
Estimation of critical heat flux in vertically downward two-phase flows

Sripada, Rajeshwar (2020)

Critical Heat Flux (CHF) is one of the important design considerations of two-phase flow equipment used in many industries including nuclear, chemical and power plants. If the CHF is not accounted for properly, it may ...
Improvement of vibration behaviour of small-scale wind turbine blade

Babawarun, Tolulope (2020-02)

Externally applied loads from high winds or impacts may cause structural damage to the wind-turbine blade, and this may further affect the aerodynamic performance of the blade. Wind-turbine blades experience high vibration ...
The use of enhanced anaerobic digestion process for energy recovery and phosphorus release from agro-industrial wastes

Nnaemeka, Ugwu Samson (2020-12)

Enhancement of anaerobic digestion process is an established strategy for ensuring the usability of diverse substrate-types, overcoming the recalcitrance of substrates to biological conversion and increasing biodegradability. ...
Biodetoxification of organic contaminants using microorganisms isolated from gold (Au) mine tailings

Mosam, Rashid Ahmed (2022-01)

Benzonitrile (C6H5C≡N) is a synthetic nitrile with vast applications as a solvent and intermediate in the manufacturing of drugs, perfumes, dyes, rubber, textiles, agrochemicals, resins, and specialty lacquers. Benzonitrile ...
Development and application of carbon-based nanomaterials to improve the performance of lead acid energy storage device

Doraswamy, Sreedhar Naidu (2022-01-30)

Lead-acid batteries with conventional materials are now no longer able to meet the emerging requirements for several applications in telecom, automobile, solar, etc., Due to the increase in the demand for higher ...
Design optimization of heavy motor vehicle chassis

Agarwal, Abhishek (2022-03)

A vehicle chassis is one of the most vital components of an automobile. It supports various components like the vehicle body, engine, and suspension and transmission system. The purpose of heavy-duty motor vehicles (HMV) ...
An investigation into the integration of industry 4.0 with lean management in supply chain to advance productivity

Mncwango, Bongumenzi Talent (2022-10-26)
