I am a second year graduate student pursuing my PhD in Mechanical Engineering with an emphasis in Controls. My main research interests lie in the realm of Model Predictive Control (MPC), an optimization based control technique. I am particularly interested in Distributed Model Predictive Control (DMPC), which seeks to form algorithms to split up computation of the MPC solution. I have been stud...

The virtual colony count (VCC) microbiological assay has been utilized for over a decade to measure the antimicrobial activity of peptides such as defensins and LL-37 against biosafety level (BSL)-1 and BSL-2 bacteria including , , , and Escherichia coli Staphylococcus aureus Bacillus cereus Enterobacter . In addition, a modified pipetting technique was presented in a 2011 aerogenes study of de...

A geochemical and speciation study of As, Fe, Mn, Zn, and Cu was performed using sequential extraction and statistical approaches in the core sediments taken at two locations-Rigni Chhapra and Chaube Chhapra-of the central Gangetic basin (India). A gradual increase in the grain size (varying from clay to coarse sands) was observed in both the core profiles up to 30.5 m depth. The concentrations...
