Fluid-rock interactions in the high-grade terrain of south India: a mineralogic and thermodynamic study
The formation of major rock types in the Kerala high-grade terrains, northern Tamil Nadu, and southern Karnataka Precambrian shield has been studied thermodynamically by focusing on: a) characterization of the fluid phase ... -
Fluoranthene-Based Materials for Non-Doped Blue Organic Light-Emitting Diodes
(2018-05-16)The organic light-emitting diode (OLED) technology is emerging to be the future technology of choice for thin, flexible and efficient display and lighting panels and is a potential competitor for the existing flat panel ... -
Fluorescence of Manganese in mixed sulphate glasses and Crystalline medium.
The observed fluorescence decay of Mn²? in potassium sulphate–zinc sulphate glass is of single exponential at low (3 mole %) and high concentrations (12 mole %) of manganese. At higher concentrations of manganese, concentration ... -
Fluorescence-detected Multidimensional Electronic Spectroscopy (fMES) with a Visible White-light Continuum: New Experimental Approaches and Vibronic Exciton Models
Multidimensional Electronic Spectroscopy (MDES) represents the state-of-the-art optical spectroscopy method within the umbrella of time-resolved four-wavemixing techniques. MDES works by resolving the femtosecond quantum ... -
Flurorescence investigation of biological systems. the alamethicin transmembrane channel and model systems
Fluorescence is a technique that has been extensively utilized in the study of systems of biological relevance due to the longevity of the excited states of many molecules, which allows for a variety of physical and chemical ... -
Flutter Identification and Aeroelastic Stability during Wake Penetration
Demonstration of utter stability over the design envelope and identi fication of safe ight envelope is a prerequisite for operational clearance of any new aircraft design. An important step involved in flight flutter ... -
Flutter Susceptibility Assessment of Airplanes in Sub-critical Regime using Ameliorated Flutter Margin and Neural Network Based Methods
(2018-02-17)As flight flutter testing on an airplane progresses to high dynamic pressures and high Mach number region, it becomes very difficult for engineers to predict the level of the remaining stability in a flutter-prone mode and ... -
Flux Rate Controlled Harmonic Filtering of Integrated Magnetic-Based Isolated-Inverter Topologies and Dynamically Variable Inductors
An intermediate filtering stage is mandatory to deliver smooth sinusoidal output voltage across the load. Several multilevel and modular multilevel-based inverter topologies are reported in the literature to reduce the ... -
FMCW Radar Systems for Indoor Biomedical Applications: Hardware, Software, and Techniques
The growing global demand for unobtrusive, non-contact health monitoring systems, driven by aging populations and the increasing prevalence of neurological disorders, underscores the urgent need for innovative sensing ... -
Foaming of Surface Waterbodies: A Comprehensive Study on Causes, Persistence, Seasonality, and Mitigation Strategies
Foaming waterbodies have emerged as a significant global concern due to their adverse effects on aquatic ecosystems, offensive odour emissions, disruption of daily activities in nearby areas, and visual unpleasantness. ... -
Folding Studies On Peanut Agglutinin : A Lectin With An Unusual Quaternary Structure
(2009-03-04)The thesis entitled “Folding studies on Peanut Agglutinin: A lectin with an unusual quaternary structure” deals with the several aspects of the folding of the tetrameric legume lectin Peanut Agglutinin ... -
Food and Nutritional Status: Overall Assessment and COVID-19 Studies
Malnutrition remains a global health concern, especially in India with high child mortality rates. While some studies examine nutrient inadequacy in a child’s diets, a lack of comprehensive assessment of underlying ecosystem ... -
For Queen and Country : Reproductive and Non-Reproductive Division of Labour in the Primitively Eusocial Wasp Ropalidia Cyathiformis
(2018-07-05)Division of labour is a hallmark of eusocial insects and is believed to be a major factor in their evolutionary success and ecological dominance. Division of labour can be of two kinds – reproductive division of labour ... -
Foraging Decisions of the Lesser False Vampire Bat, Megaderma Spasma in a Heterogeneous Landscape
Predators make various foraging decisions at different spatial and temporal scales. Such decisions can be studied at two levels: patch decisions at the landscape level, and prey decisions at the foraging patch level. In ... -
Force and Shape Estimation using Fiber Bragg Grating Sensors for Assistance in Minimally Invasive Diagnostic and Surgical Procedures
Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors have become increasingly popular for applications in biomedical engineering. Amongst these, use of FBGs in ‘smart instruments’ for minimally invasive diagnostic and surgical procedures ... -
Force Measurements On Rigid And Flexible Oscillating Foils
(2013-10-04)In the present work, we experimentally study thrust generation from sinusoidally pitched rigid and flexible foils immersed in a uniform flow. The flexible foils are made by attaching a flexible flap of known flexural ... -
