Sodium intercalation/de-intercalation mechanism in Na4MnV(PO4)3 cathode materials
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
Na4MnV(PO4)3 is a sodium ion conducting material with a NASICON type crystal structure. This phase is not much known as an electrode material. The present work focuses on the sodium ion intercalation/de-intercalation ...
Designing and performance evaluation of polyelectrolyte multilayered composite smart coatings
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
This work reports the synthesis of polyelectrolyte microcapsules and its effect on the anti-corrosion performance of polymeric coating applied on steel substrates. In situ polymerization technique was used for the synthesis ...

Hydromagnetic couple-stress nanofluid flow over a moving convective wall: OHAM analysis
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
This communication presents the magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) flow of a couple-stress nanofluid over a convective moving wall. The flow dynamics are analyzed in the boundary layer region. Convective cooling phenomenon combined ...
Validity of the effective potential method to study PT-symmetric field theories
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
We calculate the one loop effective potential for the class (-(iϕ)α) of PT-symmetric and non-Hermitian field theories in 0+1 space-time dimensions. To test the method, we showed that for the massless Hermitian ϕ4 theory, ...
