Sharma, S. (author)Electrochemical Promotion of Catalysis (EPOC) is a method for enhancing a catalytic reaction by modifying the surface properties of the catalyst through the application of a small amount of current or interfacial potential. It can also be used to enhance the selectivity of heterogenous catalytic reactions. It was first discovered by M. Stoukides...master thesis 2020

Sharma, Saurabh (author)Pavement undergoes a fast deterioration process either due to the damages induced by weather conditions, an increase in traffic flow and load, or passive factors like aging of infrastructure. Thus requiring periodic rehabilitation measures to maintain the condition of the underlying asset. Since damages on the asphalt road, impose economic...master thesis 2020

Abdelrady, Ahmed (author), Sharma, Saroj (author), Sefelnasr, Ahmed (author), Kennedy, M.D. (author)Bank filtration (BF) has been used for many years as an economical technique for providing high-quality drinking water. However, under anaerobic conditions, the aquifer release of undesirable metal(loid)s, such as iron manganese, and arsenic, reduces the bank filtrate quality and thus restricts the application of this technique. This study...journal article 2020

Abdelrady, Ahmed (author), Bachwenkizi, J. (author), Sharma, S. (author), Sefelnasr, Ahmed (author), Kennedy, M.D. (author)The effectiveness of bank filtration (BF) is highly dependent on the source water quality (e.g., organic matter composition, pH, and concentration of heavy metals (HMs)). In this study, the impact of dissolved organic matter (DOM) on the removal of selected metals (Cu, Zn, Pb, Se, and Ni) during BF was investigated. Column studies were...journal article 2020

Yu, T. (author), Zhang, Xiang (author), Sharma, S. (author), Blanter, Y.M. (author), Bauer, G.E. (author)We theoretically investigate the collective excitations of multiple (sub)millimeter-sized ferromagnets mediated by waveguide photons. By the position of the magnets in the waveguide, the magnon-photon coupling can be tuned to be chiral, i.e., magnons only couple with photons propagating in one direction, leading to an asymmetric transfer of...journal article 2020

Šimić, Fran (author), Sharma, S. (author), Blanter, Y.M. (author), Bauer, G.E. (author)We propose and model a method to excite a large number of coherent magnons with high momentum in optical cavities. This is achieved by two counterpropagating optical modes that are detuned by the frequency of a selected magnon, similar to stimulated Raman scattering. In submillimeter-size yttrium iron garnet spheres, a milliwatt laser input...journal article 2020

Yu, T. (author), Zhang, Yu Xiang (author), Sharma, S. (author), Zhang, Xiang (author), Blanter, Y.M. (author), Bauer, G.E. (author)We report strong chiral coupling between magnons and photons in microwave waveguides that contain chains of small magnets on special lines. Large magnon accumulations at one edge of the chain emerge when exciting the magnets by a phased antenna array. This mechanism holds the promise of new functionalities in nonlinear and quantum magnonics.journal article 2020

Abdelrady, Ahmed (author), Sharma, Saroj (author), Sefelnasr, Ahmed (author), El-Rawy, Mustafa (author), Kennedy, M.D. (author)Bank filtration (BF) is acknowledged as a sustainable and effective technique to provide drinking water of adequate quality; it has been known for a long time in Europe. However, this technique is site-specific and therefore its application in developing countries with different hydrologic and environment conditions remains limited. In this...journal article 2020

Rahman, Muhammad Fazalul (author), Murukannaiah, P.K. (author), Sharma, Naveen (author)Vacant lots are municipally-owned land parcels which were acquired post-abandonment or due to tax foreclosures. With time, failure to sell or find alternate uses for vacant lots results in them causing adverse effects on the health and safety of residents, and cost the city both directly and indirectly. Although existing research has tried to...conference paper 2020

Sharma, S. (author), Hari, K.V.S. (author), Leus, G.J.T. (author)The development of compressed sensing (CS) techniques for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is enabling a speedup of MRI scanning. To increase the incoherence in the sampling, a random selection of points on the k-space is deployed and a continuous trajectory is obtained by solving a traveling salesman problem (TSP) through these points. A...conference paper 2020

Sharma, S. (author), Hari, K.V.S. (author), Leus, G.J.T. (author)A novel class of k-space trajectories for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sampling using space filling curves (SFCs) is presented here. More specifically, Peano, Hilbert and Sierpinski curves are used. We propose 1-shot and 4-shot variable density SFCs by utilizing the space coverage provided by SFCs in different iterations. The proposed...conference paper 2020

Although the literature recognizes that different classes of vehicles have different ways of performing lane-change maneuvers, lane change behavior of truck drivers is an overlooked research area. We propose that truck drivers are heterogeneous in their lane change...journal article 2020
