Atoms, owing to the polarizability of the electrons, can be easily arranged into molecules. However, atomic nanoclusters, which in many aspects are similar to that of atoms, lacks the presence of polarizable electrons and ...
The research works presented in this thesis is focused on developing new strategies to control the ACQ/AIE phenomenon in naphthalimide (NI) derivatives. In particular, these research projects include the systematic tuning ...
India has rich and extensive textile traditions across the country largely owing to its historical, geographical and cultural uniqueness. In recent times, textiles have been found to be an interesting medium for embedding ...
The elliptical-bladed rotor that has shown its potential to harness wind energy more efficiently is considered for the present numerical and experimental studies. In the present investigations, initially 2D unsteady ...
Time-frequency based signal processing is a popular technique for output only operational modal analysis (OMA). These techniques are mostly based on either Hilbert transform (HT) or wavelet transform (WT) besides other ...
The present study aims to explore and examine the aspects of ‘crime’ and ‘deviance’ that are found evident in the textual representations in the autobiographies of the African American writer and poet, Maya Angelou. Her ...
The dissertation entitled “DESIGN OF C5-SUBSTITUTED 2′-DEOXYURIDINES, SMALL FLUORESCENT MOLECULE AND STUDY OF PHOTOPHYSICAL/BIOPHYSICAL PROPERTIES” is an embodiment of research aimed towards the synthesis and studies on ...
Everything should be made as simple as possible but not simpler.'' Inspired by Albert Einstein's famous quote, this thesis proposes simple but accurate approaches to model the complex interplay between the various ...
The concept of attaining a controlled optical response of a material lies at the core of many of the advances in the field of optics. In the subwavelength regime, an effective control of the interaction between light and ...
During last few decades, functionally graded materials (FGMs) have been recognized as future advanced composite material, featuring thermo-mechanical loading, multi functionality and gradation at micro and nano scales. In ...
The consumption of energy has always been on the rising trend. In the year 2017, the world consumed 153,595 terawatt-hours (TWh) of primary energy which is above 2500 % more than in the year 1800. Majority of our current ...
The present work is conducted to reveal better understanding about the joint strength and joint formation in a new solid-state spot joining process namely Friction stir forming and its modified variant namely Dieless ...
Increasing global population and energy intensive lifestyle has resulted in increased global energy demand. Butanol, produced by clostridial fermentation, is a promising transportation alternative as a drop-in fuel due to ...
End forming of tubes generally refer to making of simple or complex shapes such as expansions, reductions, flares, flanges, tapers, and beads made at the end of the tube by single or multiple metal forming operations. These ...
In this work, the powerful Non-chiral bosonization technique (NCBT) is introduced, which is a non-trivial modification of the standard Fermi-Bose correspondence in one spatial dimension made in order to facilitate the study ...
The present thesis describes the development of multinary sulfide based semiconductor materials for utilization as efficient photocatalysts for water reduction/oxidation or dye degradation. Bare sulfide semiconductor ...
A bulldozer is one of the construction equipment, which has a tractor/engine for supplying power and a metallic blade in its front for soil cutting. A bulldozer experiences enormous resistance due to adhesion, cohesion, ...
The rapid growth of outward FDI (OFDI) from the developing nations is an emerging issue of international business studies. High growth of OFDI from India has attracted the attention of the global community. Recently, ...
In this thesis, our primary interest is to provide some uniformly convergent computational techniques for solving singularly perturbed system of parabolic initial-boundary-value problems (IBVPs) of convection-diffusion and ...
In this thesis, one sided c-Si/a-Si:H heterojunction solar cells (Ag/Al/c-Si(n)/a-Si:H(i)/a-Si:H(p)/ITO/Ag) with open circuit voltage (Voc) as high as 711 mV and efficiency (ɳ) of 17.3% were fabricated on double side ...
