AN ANGIOGENIC AND ANTIBACTERIAL GELMA MICRONEEDLE ARRAY PATCH FOR DIABETIC WOUND HEALING APPLICATIONS
(Mechanical Engineering, 2024 , Master Thesis)
Diabetic wounds represent a significant healthcare challenge due to their protracted healing processes and susceptibility to infection. Nitric oxide (NO) and oxygen have emerged as promising therapeutic agents for enhancing ...
INVESTIGATING THE IMPACT AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF RECLAIMED RUBBER AND SAWDUST COMPOSITE
(Mechanical Engineering, 2022 , Master Thesis)
Reclaimed rubber composites can offer promising mechanical properties and a new way of incorporating waste materials for sustainable recycling. Sawdust is a good additive for producing reclaimed rubber composites due to ...
INVESTIGATING FATIGUE LIFE IN BOLTED FLANGE CONNECTION IN WIND TURBINE TOWERS
(Mechanical Engineering, 2023 , Master Thesis)
A comprehensive assessment of fatigue was performed on an L-flanged bolted connection under four different wind speeds. The wind turbines were subjected to average wind speeds of 5, 10, 15, and 20 m/s. The primary objective ...
EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATIONS AND COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMIC PREDICTIONS OF PRESSURE DROP CHARACTERISTICS IN MULTIPHASE FLOW FOR CONCENTRIC INCLINED ANNULI IN NEAR HORIZONTAL WELLS
(Mechanical Engineering, 06-2 , Master Thesis)
In oil and gas sectors, the accuracy of pressure drop predictions plays significant role in designing multiphase flow systems. In recent decades, there is a considerable amount of theoretical and experimental studies dealing ...
Development of air-jet spun PHBV/PCL composite scaffolds for wound healing applications
(Mechanical Engineering, Jun- , Master Thesis)
Delay in the healing of chronic wounds is one of the major problems causing individuals to lose their lives and which also becomes a severe burden on the nation's healthcare. Nanotechnology has allowed the development of ...
Design of Embedded 3D Printed Sensors on a Robot for Monitoring and Capturing Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide
(Mechanical Engineering, 2021 , Master Thesis)
Gas detection is a critical task in dangerous environments that involve hazardous or contaminant gases. Quick detection of gas leaks and their rectification ensure the protection of lives and safeguards equipment installed ...
Investigation of the Suitability of the Vibration Acceptance Criteria for Process Pipework in Assessing the Vibration Levels of the Flow-Induced Fatigue Failure
(Mechanical Engineering, 2021 , Master Thesis)
Process pipework is essential to the oil and gas industries. Usually, pipework is designed to satisfy static requirements. Often, vibration problems in process pipework are treated on an Adhoc basis. Pipework vibration can ...
EXPERIMENTAL AND CFD INVESTIGATION OF SOLAR CENTRAL RECEIVER TUBES
(Mechanical Engineering, 2018 , Master Thesis)
Lower electricity cost corresponds to high efficiency, which in turn corresponds to high operating temperatures in Concentrated Solar Power technology. Central receiver of such system constitutes 15% of the cost and plays ...
Reduced Graphene Oxide Incorporated GELMA Hydrogel Promotes Angiogenesis for Wound Healing Applications
(Mechanical Engineering, 2019 , Master Thesis)
Non-healing or slow healing of chronic wounds is among the serious
complications of diabetes. The decrease in blood supply due to lack of angiogenesis
leads to reduced supply of oxygen, nutrients and growth factors ...
A Finite Element Investigation of Existing Pipework Vibration Acceptance Criteria
(Mechanical Engineering, 2020 , Master Thesis)
In this thesis, a literature review was conducted to cover the assessment techniques for Oil and Gas (O&G) pipework that includes Small Bore Pipes (SBP). The various methods that were studied are the most commonly found ...
