This work is concerned with the application of compact and higher order compact (HOC) finite difference schemes to complex heat and mass transfer problems on nonuniform grids, which have been used overwhelmingly for fluid ...
Microchannel-based devices are widely used in microelectronic devices, turbine blade cooling, microfluidics for drug delivery devices, etc. Therefore, microchannel-based devices require the use of materials with high ...
In this thesis, our work addresses the outcomes of the transport measurements in the presence of spin orbit couplings and an external magnetic field in a two dimensional (2D) semi Dirac system. Semi Dirac systems are ...
Study of quantum phase transitions in artificial systems has attracted enormous
attention in recent years. In this thesis, we study the quantum phase transitions in
systems of constrained bosons in low dimensional lattices. ...
In the present thesis work, epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) plasmon resonance and lossy mode resonance (LMR) properties of pulsed laser deposited indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films and metallic indium-rich ITO thin films are studied ...
Active matter or self-propelled particles (SPPs) are characterised by their inherent ability to consume energy from the environment and eventually drive themselves out of equilibrium. Bacteria swarms, cell clusters, insects, ...
The prime inspiration of this research is to formulate a framework for strategic selection and integration of design methods for service development process in Product Service Systems (PSS) perspective. This research maps ...
Oleaginous microalgae are deemed as cell bio-factories for biodiesel production. However, the lower biomass and lipid productivity, along with the high cost of downstream processing such as harvesting, lipid extraction and ...
Single beam optical trap comprises a tightly focused laser beam that exerts a pico-Newton level force on suspended microscopic particles. Since last couple of decades optical traps have become an important tool in areas ...
The global biotherapeutics market has been tremendously growing with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.8%, and is expected to reach a total sales value close to half a trillion USD within the next five years. The ...
The bell metal industry worldwide enjoys heritage estate. However, field survey and literature review shows the industry is presently encompassed with several difficulties, such as age-old traditional production techniques, ...
This dissertation addresses safety and performance optimization issues related to guidance and control of pursuit vehicles. Applications including but not limited to surveillance, inspection, monitoring, man-machine ...
This thesis aims to enhance the quality of the narrowband speech signal transmitted in narrowband telephonic communication. The transmitted narrowband speech signal has frequency components in the range of 300-3400 Hz. ...
The efficiency of several real-time vision tasks severely degrades when presented with noisy or corrupt images or videos taken in adverse rainy or hazy weather conditions. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to propose ...
In this thesis, a novel grating array based wavefront sensing (GAWS) scheme is proposed and demonstrated experimentally which can be used to measure both the thickness and surface profiles of the thin films simultaneously ...
Phonocardiogram (PCG) is a graphical representation of a heart sound signal. It provides vital information about the myocardium, septum, and valvular events, resulting directly from hemodynamic and heart rhythm. Any heart ...
Predictive control has gained much popularity since its introduction in the 1960s. The popularity of these controllers is mainly due to their easy handling of constraints, multi-input multi-output system and control of ...
The freshwater ecosystem performs numerous environmental functions, including nutrient recycling, flood attenuation, and habitat for aquatic flora and fauna. In 2015, the United Nations established the sustainable development ...
Coherent control is a promising technique for manipulating atomic and molecular
systems. It has found numerous applications in a wide range of areas such as, ultracold physics, laser cooling, Bose-Einstein condensates, ...
Education aids in the process of individual personality development, enhances knowledge, skill and character-building, enables one to survive different challenges of life, adjust with the surroundings and as a whole, ...
