We all know that getting good food and good air is very essential for fundamental well being. This amplifies its importance in space, particularly in the International Space Station and other spacecraft. Like oxygen, water is a precious resource in space. Hence water management in spacecraft is extremely important. There have been rumors that astronauts…
When we design machines, the traditional engineer’s toolbox can look rather empty. We need a new set of manufacturing and construction tools to meet the new realities of software-driven products fueled by digital disruption. A digital twin is a breakthrough technology proposed by Professor Michael Grieves in 2003 at the University of Michigan. We’ve seen…
The gig economy is part of a crucial transformation occurring in India’s work landscape, and ride-hailing companies are examples of platforms on which “gigs” can be found. The Indian ride-hailing market was projected to grow by 15.5 percent until 2023; the COVID-19 pandemic, however, has disrupted the trajectory.

However, a tiny aspect of the energy sector hasn’t gotten the…
Computational Science is the discipline that utilizes mathematical models to solve and analyse problems. Due to the recent advances in technology, particularly in modern-day computing, computational science has seen an increase in its use. Starting as simulations of natural processes, this field has led to great discoveries in both science and engineering. Numerical analysis is…
