Phase Interface Dynamics And Heat Transfer Mechanisms In Evaporating Droplet And Pool Boiling Processes, Md Tanbin Hasan Mondal
Doctoral Dissertations
Despite the significant importance and widespread use of phase-change cooling techniques, there are still fundamental questions about the microscopic processes that govern the heat transfer mechanisms. In order to gain a better understanding of the underlying physics involved, it is essential to have information at the microscale regarding the surface temperature distribution with time as well as the location and speed of the moving contact line (MCL). A comprehensive understanding of heat transfer mechanisms and phase-interface behavior during phase-change cooling is crucial for improving heat transfer models, optimizing surface engineering, and maximizing overall effectiveness. Firstly, this dissertation presents a capacitance-based …
Selective Targeting Of Microglia By Quantum Dots And Green Synthesis Of Metal Organic Biohybrids; Applications In Dynamic Cell And Assay Systems, Navya Uppu
Doctoral Dissertations
Neurological disorders are the leading cause of physical and cognitive disability across the globe, currently affecting approximately 15% of the worldwide population. Part of the glioma microenvironment are microglia, resident immune cells of the CNS that were thought to be involved in the pathogenesis of diverse neurodegenerative diseases. Though it remains uncertain what triggers microglial activation in these disorders, targeting and tracking microglial functions using nanotools like Quantum Dots (QDs) could help us elucidate them in such neurological diseases. This research focuses on the comparative study of different QDs formulations and their selective uptake by brain microglia in primary cultures …
