Natural rubber latex (NRL) is used as a basic raw material in manufacturing latex products for household, medical and industrial applications. This widespread use of NRL is caused by the extensive generation of solid ...

Site closure and rehabilitation is seldom practiced in Sri Lankan quarrying industry. Hence, open craters filled with water and garbage, having steep unstable slopes represent most of the abandoned quarry sites, raising ...

Thermal conductivity is the one of most significant parameters in materials when it comes to the industrial applications, it is important to know the thermal conductivity of materials for materials selection, especially ...

This paper proposes a three degrees of freedom (DOF) robotic ankle exoskeleton with compatible joint axes, named C-JAE. The device consists of three separate units to achieve triplanar motions. The plantarflexion-dorsiflexion ...

Effect of 1,4–dimethylpiperazine as a catalyst in producing polyether foam was investigated. Reference samples were produced from polyol, methylene di isocyanate (MDI), triethylene diamine (as a control catalyst), ...

Throughout the years researches and practitioners have proved that the technology can play a significant role in gaining competitive advantage. However, despite superior technology, organizations may fail to successfully ...

Cultivation is the paramount step of microalgae bioprocessing as a concentrated and flourished biomass broth will result in higher recoveries of its metabolites. But there is scarce model development for the prediction ...

Autonomous navigation is highly important in robotics, especially when it comes to the robotic applications in disaster management etc. There are many algorithms to implement autonomous navigation and most of them are ...

Determination of the grain size is usually done by microscopic techniques which require special sample preparations. Nondestructive evaluation of grain size becomes important when sample preparation is restricted such ...

Electric vehicles (EV) are becoming the most preferred and rapidly growing mode of transportation all around the world. Development of battery technologies and attention on residential scale renewable energy based distribution ...
