Effect of Cyclic Strain Path And Vibration Cycles on Shear Modulus And Damping of Sand
(2017-09-23)The soil strata is often subjected to various kinds of vibrations such as that caused by earthquakes, water waves, traffic loads, wind power plants, construction related equipments, pile driving and vibratory machines. The ... -
Effect of Electric Current Pulses on Pre-cracked Thin Metallic Conductors: From Crack Propagation to Healing of Cracks
Both scientifically and technologically, it is important to investigate the effects of electric current on the structural integrity of metallic components. As an electric current reverses its direction across a crack, ... -
The Effect Of Energy Deposition In Hypersonic Blunt Body Flow Field
(2010-09-23)A body exposed to hypersonic flow is subjected to extremely high wall heating rates, owing to the conversion of the kinetic energy of the oncoming flow into heat through the formation of shock waves and viscous dissipation ... -
Effect of Extractives and Crude Proteins on the Kinetics of Hydrolysis in a Solid State Bio-Reactor
(2018-04-18)Polymer hydrolysis is the first (and rate limiting) step for biomethanation of heterogeneous biomass feedstock’s. Satisfactory hydrolysis has been difficult to achieve, understand and predict adequately, to run anaerobic ... -
Effect of Favourable Pressure Gradient on Turbulence in Boundary Layers
(2018-07-16)This thesis explores the effects of favourable pressure gradient on the structure of turbulent boundary layers (TBL). In this context, the structure of three types of boundary layers namely a zero-pressure-gradient ... -
Effect Of Free-Volume On The Fracture And Fatigue Of Amorphous Alloys
(2010-07-01)Bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) are a new class of structural materials and exhibit unique combinations of mechanical properties. As a result, their mechanical behavior has been an active area of scientific pursuit in the ... -
The Effect of Gamma Radiation on Protein Structure and Dynamics
Gamma radiation being the most energetic form of electromagnetic radiation has applications in number of different fields such as in medicine for treating cancer, food sterilization and in astronomy for studying phenomenon ... -
Effect Of Glycodelin A On Cells Of The Immune System Insights Into GdA-Induced Signaling In Monocytes, B And NK Cells
(2010-04-06)Glycodelin is a 162 amino acid dimeric, glycosylated, secretory protein of the lipocalin superfamily. Its classification as a lipocalin(carriers of small hydrophobic molecules) is based mainly on the presence of lipocalin ... -
Effect of Heat Treatment and Modification on Flow and Fracture Behaviour of a Newly Developed Al-Si Based Cast Alloy
(2018-04-17)The compression behavior of a newly developed near eutectic Al-Si based cast alloy with three different microstructures has been investigated in the present work. Microstructures with modified and unmodified Si particles ... -
Effect of High Pressure Torsion Processing on Precipitate Containing Alloys
Severe plastic deformation (SPD) processes yield excellent grain refinement in metallic materials by application of very large shear strains while retaining the initial sample dimensions. Its effects on simultaneously ... -
Effect of High-Pressure Torsion and Natural Ageing on Hardness, Electrical Resistivity and Fatigue Properties of Commercially Pure Cu
Commercially pure Cu was processed through high-pressure torsion (HPT) at a pressure of 6 GPa starting from ¼ up to 50 turns. These samples were then naturally aged for 1.75 years under the laboratory condition. Subsequently, ... -
Effect of Humidity and Temperature on Wear of TiN and TiAIN Coatings
(2018-05-30)When loss of material due to sliding of two solids is promoted/prevented, in the presence of chemically reacting liquid or gas, tribochemical wear is said to occur. Tribochemical wear, in which corrosive media promotes ... -
The Effect Of Interference Of Strip Foundations And Anchors On Their Ultimate Bearing Capacity And Elastic Settlement
(2011-01-10)Due to close proximity of different civil engineering structures, the ultimate bearing capacity and failure pattern of adjoining footings/anchors are often influenced by their mutual interference. The present thesis is an ... -
Effect of Length Scale on High Temperature Mechanical Behavior of Sn-Cu Joints: A Mechanics and Material Science Based Treatment
With the ongoing miniaturization of microelectronic devices, the size of compliant solder in microscale solder joints has significantly reduced, proportion of brittle phases has increased, and the microscale joints have ... -
Effect of Li Addition on the Plasticity of AZ31 Mg-Alloy
(2017-11-14)Mg-alloys, despite being the lightest structural metallic materials, find limited applications due to their poor workability, which is due to the hcp structure that does not provide sufficient number of independent slip ... -
Effect of microstructure and texture on the dwell fatigue behaviour of titanium alloys
Ever since the failure of the fan blades of the Rolls Royce gas turbine engine that powered the Lockheed Martin tristar aircraft in 1972, ambient temperature dwell fatigue (DF) in titanium alloys has received considerable ... -
