Mapping intelligent manufacturing implementation barriers to industry 5.0 pillars: Evidence from the electronics industry

Subject to global economic headwinds, electronics manufacturing is at the cusp of a transition. Several factors, ranging from geopolitics to technological innovation, have challenged manufacturing at a global scale in the form of uncertainties and disruptions. The emergence of di...

Structural analysis and prioritization of e-waste management challenges in the Indian context using ISM and MICMAC methods

E-waste has become one of the critical issues to be addressed in recent years due to ecological and health-related issues. This research intends to investigate these interrelationships among barriers to e-waste management in the Indian context. An exhaustive literature review on...

Electropolymerization Turns an Inactive Molecular Complex into a Water Oxidation Catalyst

Abstract Understanding how structure gives rise to function lies at the heart of catalysis. Yet one of the most fundamental open questions is whether catalytic activity can emerge purely from connectivity, without altering the composition or coordination of the molecular building...

Modification of plumes and heat transfer in a thermal convection environment due to intermittent cold fluid injection

Experimental and numerical investigations of plume reorganization and heat-transfer enhancement in a buoyancy-driven laminar natural convection system subjected to intermittent cold-fluid injection are presented. Experiments are conducted in a thin rectangular enclosure filled wi...

Tailoring Surface Properties of Low‐Carbon Steel Through Graphene and Inconel 718‐Reinforced Cladding via Wire Arc Additive Method

Surface degradation of low‐carbon steel remains a major concern in engineering applications under severe conditions. Wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) provides an economical approach for localized surface modification through cladding. In this study, low‐carbon steel was sur...

A unified view of the tropical tropopause layer over India from long-term radiosonde and ozonesonde observations

Abstract The tropical tropopause layer (TTL) regulates the exchange of air, moisture, and trace gases between the troposphere and stratosphere, yet its long-term structure and variability over tropical regions remain poorly constrained by in situ observations. TTL is the transiti...
