A Study of an R&D team in an Indian research organization : an ethnographic approach
The research reported in this thesis has attempted to provide a suggestive ethnographic case study of an R&D team in a government-sponsored power research institute in Southern India. This case study has tried to demonstrate ... -
A Study of electronic structure and semiconductor-metal transitions in perovskite oxides
In this chapter we discuss the semiconductor-metal transition in La???Sr?CoO?. We study the electrical resistivity, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS), Auger electron ... -
A Synthesis study of the radio sky at decametre wavelengths.
This thesis describes an all-sky survey made at 34.5 MHz using the low frequency telescope situated at Gauribidanur, near Bangalore (latitude 13.36 12 N). The antenna system is made up of 1000 dipoles arranged in the ... -
A Systems approach for utility assessment of Energy resources in rural Applications
The main objective of the thesis is to develop a systems approach to assess the utilities of alternative energy resources in the context of rural India. The methodology proposed includes those energy resources also which ... -

A token ring local area network for small systems application
This research work deals with a new design/ and study of a token ring local area network (LAN) for small systems application like microcomputer network. The salient features of the work carried out are as follows: “ ... -
A-T base sequences: a theoretical and an experimental study
As a result of the study undertaken, besides predicting the relative stabilities of polynucleotide duplexes containing A–T base pairs, the following conclusions can be drawn (Rajagopalan et al., 1984): a) Base–base ... -
Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics Studies of Bronsted Acid-Base Chemistry in Aqueous Solutions
(2018-08-11)Knowledge of the dissociation constants of the ionizable protons of weak acids in aqueous media is of fundamental importance in many areas of chemistry and biochemistry. The pKa value, or equilibrium dissociation constant, ... -
Ab initio Quantum Chemical Studies on Kinetic Fractionation during the analysis of Carbonates for the Clumped Isotope Thermometry
Stable and clumped isotopic compositions of molecules and minerals carry the signatures of temperatures and other physical and chemical conditions of the time of their formation. Isotopic compositions of such precipitate ... -
Ab initio quantum chemical studies on the molecular geometry, force field and vibrational spectra of diborane and related compounds .
A good quality force?constant set for a polyatomic molecule can be derived from ab initio calculations using the L?matrix without recourse to arbitrary scale factors or extra computational effort. The RECOVES procedure can ... -
Ab-initio Modeling and Designing of Materials for Thermoelectrics, Optoelectronics and High Temperature Applications
