Smart Helmet - Intelligent Safety Helmet
International Journal of Advanced Research in Science, Communication and Technology, 2021 Bike riding is a lot of fun, but accidents happen. People choose motorbikes over cars as it is much cheaper to run, easier to park and flexible in traffic. In India, more than 37 million people are using two wheelers. Since usage is high, accident percentage of two wheelers are also high compared to four wheelers.

Load Distributing Metamaterials Via Discrete Optimization
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Mechanical metamaterials are computationally optimized to homogenize transmitted forces by minimizing the spread of reaction forces. The resulting architectures transform localized loading into broader, more uniform force distributions and experimentally demonstrate robust load spreading under quasi‐static and impact loading.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This study demonstrates that Tf‐PDA NPs combine a receptor‐mediated targeting with mild photothermal activation to enhance nanoparticle accumulation in the brain. NIR‐activated Tf‐PDA NPs increase BBB permeability to NPs in vitro and in vivo without inducing cytotoxicity or adverse immune responses.
