Mahatma Gandhi's birth anniversary on 2nd October is also celebrated as International Non-Violence Day. To commemorate this occasion, Department of Electrical Engineering, IIT Palakkad, along with Energy swaraj foundation is organizing a Solar Ambassador Workshop (SAW), which aims to provide participants with hands-on experience in solar technology, highlighting the significance of solar energy in mitigating climate change.

IIT Palakkad is hosting the Nurturing Mathematical Talents in Schools programme organised by the State Council for Educational Research and Training, Kerala, from June 19 to June 23. This five-day programme envisages delivering topics in higher mathematics to selected school students from across the state of Kerala.
This workshop on 'Post-Buckling of Composite Shells' aims to provide valuable insights and hands-on experience in finite element (FE) analysis of post-buckling analysis of composites. More details in the flyer...
A single factor that determines the implementation of green hydrogen is its cost. Currently practiced electrolysis methods are expensive in terms of Capex and Opex. A single factor that determines the Opex is the input energy, which is around ~55 kWh/kg H,, is due to high voltage required for oxygen evolution reaction (OER). How the oxidation can be handled suitably, so that running expenses could be brought down to the lowest level.
In this talk I will discuss some of the problems in Semiconductor Device research I pursued, focussing on the insights gained. The first example would be a critical question I asked which led to the transformation of minority carrier transport equations. I explain how they can be used to solve a variety of problems, including non-quasi-static problems. Two insightful dimensionless constants were introduced. The first one is the Ki number which embeds all the essential bulk transport properties and the second one is the Sf number which embeds all the essential surface transport properties.
