Study of reaction mechanism in solution combustion synthesis of transition metals
(
AIChE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we investigate the reaction mechanism followed during the solution combustion synthesis of transition metals (Cu, Ni and Co) and their alloys. Metal nitrates were mixed with a choice of fuel (glycine, and ...
Understanding ethanol hydrogen abstraction mechanism on CuNi catalyst
(
AIChE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this work we report the synthesis of copper oxide nanoparticles using solution combustion synthesis. These nanopowders are used as catalyst in ethanol decomposition reaction for hydrogen production. In situ study of ...

Engaging Engineering Students in Active Learning and Critical Thinking through Class Debates
(
Elsevier Ltd.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Within the program of engineering, typically there are courses that are heavily dependent on mathematics and derivations of fundamental concepts. A lot of active learning can be done in these classes by using the engineering ...
New vehicle bumper design for pedestrian protection during impact
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This study discusses the influence of the active bumper design on the performance of the selected current bumper in terms of pedestrian protection by using finite element method. The legform impactor is used to test the ...
Numerical simulation of a novel expanded metal tubular structure for crashworthiness application
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Search for new geometries and materials that would serve in crashworthiness applications is a cumulative process. Recent studies investigated the performance of expanded metal tubes and the possible ways to enhance its ...
