In this paper, we have developed a theoretical model to explain the elastocapillary effects of an active drop. This is Ghansham’s 6th paper from the group.

In this paper, we report the discovery of a news type of metal-free 3D printable conductive inks (CNT-GO-PPD inks) reporting a conductivity value that is amongst the highest in metal-free inks. This is Subad’s 1st paper and Raashiq’s 12th paper from the group. Congrats!!!

Prof. Das delivered a Keynote Talk on “Interactions between Nanoparticles and Soft-Matter-Liquid Interfaces: Towards Developing Generic Nanocomposites, Conductive Inks with Low Sintering Temperatures, and Droplet-Based Cargo Transfer Mechanisms” in the ACS Colloids Conference held at Edmonton, Canada.

In this paper, we propose a Linear Discriminant Analysis based Machine Learning methods that helps to identify the factors to be studied to explain the electroosmotic transport in cationic brush grafted nanochannels. This is Raashiq’s 11th paper from the group.

In this paper we numerically study the interaction of one polymeric drop impacting on a film of a different, but miscible polymer. This is Arka’s 3rd paper and Vishal’s from the group and Vishal’s 27th paper from the group. Congrats !!!!

In this single-authored paper, I study the manner in which the use of active fluids can drive immiscible non-active fluids, when these two fluids are present in a capillary in a core-annular configuration.

In this paper, we show how the use of Na-TFSI salt with POEM SPE improves the electrolyte conductivity. This is Tanmay’s 7th paper and Raashiq’s 10th paper from the group. Congratulations to both !!!!!

In this paper, we report a non-linear increase in electroosmotic transport in nanochannels grafted with PMETAC brushes. We discuss the reason for such an increase to an anti-electrophoretic deformation of the brushes that localizes the counter ions at brush-bulk interface away from the interior of the brush layer. This is Raashiq’s 9th paper from the

In this paper, we study the effect of active liquids in altering the Nusselt number in thermally fully developed pipe flows.

Prof. Das delivers an invited talk at the Catholic University of America titled “Soft and Active Interfaces: Enhanced Liquid Flows in Polymer-Functionalized Nanochannels, Self-Assembly via Active Drops, and Reduced Conductivity of Printed Nanoparticle Traces.”
