“Heat flux mapping of oxyacetylene flames and their use to characterise Cf-HfB2 composites”

The paper, authored from the Department of Materials’ Advanced Ceramics Research Group was judged as the best paper over the last two years. The significance is evidenced by the fact that this research article was adjudged as the most deserving among the 240+ articles published from various eminent groups across the globe in the journal of Advances in Applied Ceramics (AAC) published by Taylor & Francis.
