Inverse Sensitivity Methods In Linear Structural Damage Detection Using Vibration Data
(2009-06-29)The thesis addresses the problem of structural damage detection using inverse sensitivity based methods. The focus here is on characterization with regard to identification, location, and, quantification of structural ... -
Invertase in a thermophilic fungus, thermomyces lanuginosus: its unusual behaviour And regulation
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-04-25)The understanding of the phenomenon of thermophily requires investigations of both thermophilic prokaryotes and eukaryotes. In the eukaryotes, thermophily is exhibited only by a few species of fungi which can grow up to ... -
Investigating and Modelling the Microscopic Pedestrian Behavioral Dynamics in Mass Religious Gatherings
Pedestrian models that can realistically reproduce observed pedestrian movement dynamics are crucial in facility planning and pre-event planning of crowded situations. Despite the elaborate arrangements, crowd disasters ... -
Investigating DNA structural basis for fragility during chromosomal translocations associated with human B-cell lymphomas
Genome integrity is essential for normal cellular functions. Erroneous repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) could lead to chromosomal rearrangements, including chromosomal translocations that may result in altered ... -
Investigating Instability Mitigation through Flame Oscillator Synchronization
Stringent emission regulations for reducing NOx and soot emissions are driving gas turbine combustors manufacturers to adopt lean premixed combustion technology. However, the rich dynamics of turbulent, lean premixed ... -
Investigating Mechanical Properties of Suspended Ovarian Cancer Cells and Clusters
The peritoneal cavity of a patient suffering from advanced epithelial ovarian cancer is filled with disseminated multicellular aggregates, commonly known as spheroids. These spheroids colonize abdominal organs leading to ... -
Investigating mechanisms underlying astrocytic involvement in depressive-like behavior and antidepressant action
Major Depressive disorder (MDD) is a complex, multifactorial psychiatric illness which affects over 20% of the population worldwide. Despite its prevalence, our understanding of its pathophysiology is severely limited, ... -
Investigating Membrane Dynamics And Oligomerization Of Pore-forming Toxins Using Single-molecule Fluorescence Techniques
The biological membrane is a thin fluidic matrix composed of a lipid bilayer that forms the primary cellular barrier against the extracellular environment. The high-density of embedded proteins and glycosylated molecules ... -
Investigating Neural Mechanisms of Word Learning and Speech Perception
Language learning and speech perception are remarkable feats performed by the human brain, involving complex neural mechanisms that allow us to understand and communicate with one another. Unravelling the mysteries of these ... -
Investigating Ocular and EEG parameters for pilot’s cognitive load estimation using flight simulators
Present day aircraft systems are becoming incredibly complicated with the advent of new technologies. As per International civil aviation organization’s safety report, failure of mechanical or any physical hardware has ... -
Investigating Partners of OsMADS1 Transcription Factor and functions for some associated factors for roles in rice inflorescence and floral development
Title: Investigating Partners of OsMADS1 Transcription Factor and functions for some associated factors for roles in rice inflorescence and floral development The classic ABCDE model for floral organ identity show that ... -
Investigating Pattern Recognition And Bi-coordinate Sound Localization in the Tree Cricket Species Oecanthus Henryi
(2017-09-20)Acoustic communication, used by a wide variety of animals, consists of the signaler, the signal and the receiver. A change in the behaviour of the receiver after reception of the signal is a prerequisite for communication. ... -
Investigating spin transport across magnetic insulators and their interfaces
Spin transport across magnetic insulator/heavy metal (MI/HM) interfaces has been a topic of interest in spintronics. The spin Seebeck effect (SSE) and spin Hall magnetoresistance (SMR) are two phenomena that have ... -
Investigating Systematics In The Cosmological Data And Possible Departures From Cosmological Principle
(2013-06-11)This thesis contributes to the field of dark energy and observational cosmology. We have investigated possible direction dependent systematic signal and non-Gaussian features in the supernovae (SNe) Type Ia data. To detect ... -
Investigating the Impact of Habitat Disturbance and the Role of Functional Traits in a Tropical Butterfly Assemblage
(2018-07-09)Tropical habitats face a diverse range of anthropogenic threats. Two common and important threats to tropical biodiversity are invasive species and roads. Invasive plants are proposed to be a major threat to biodiversity ... -
