Chemical Processing in the E-Kidney Filtration Revolution
Abstract: The convergence of bioengineering and advanced materials science has catalyzed groundbreaking innovations in renal replacement therapies, most notably in the development of the electronic kidney (e-kidney). Central to the functionality of this compact, wearable filtration system is the integration of in situ chemical processing mechanisms that emulate the nuanced biochemical regulation of the human nephron. Unlike conventional dialysis, which relies on passive diffusion and ultrafiltration, the e-kidney employs microfluidic arrays …

Tourism - Driven Monument Conservation and Cultural Heritage Governance:The Intercessing Role of Architecture in India
Abstract: The relationship between tourism and monument conservation has become increasingly significant in contemporary heritage management. With the continued growth of tourism, heritage sites are increasingly required to accommodate new demands of accessibility, movement, interpretation, and infrastructure, leading to conflict between conservation and development of the sites through tourism. In this sense, architecture acts as an important intermediary for such processes. This paper examines the intersection of architecture, tourism, and cultural …

Intelligent Rocket and Missile Propellants: A Study
Abstract: The pursuit of enhanced performance, increased safety, and unparalleled mission adaptability in aerospace and defence systems necessitate a paradigm shift in propulsive technologies. Traditional rocket and missile propellants, while highly effective, possess intrinsic limitations related to fixed energy release profiles, inherent handling risks, and susceptibility to environmental factors. This paper introduces the concept of Intelligent Rocket and Missile Propellants: advanced chemical or energetic materials endowed with intrinsic sensing, self-monitoring, and …
