Catalytic Studies with Ru and Ir Half-sandwich Complexes Bearing NHC Ligands
The thesis describes the study of arene-tethered and untethered Ru half-sandwich complexes as catalysts in the addition of hydroelements (E‒H, E = H, B, Si) across unsaturated C-C, C-N and C-O bonds and transfer hydrogenation ... -
Causes and Consequences of Hetrospecific Foraging Associations in Terrestrial Bird Communities
(2018-04-12)The question of group-living in animals has attracted a lot of research attention. Today, we have a nuanced understanding of ultimate explanations and proximate mechanisms for group-living, as well as the genetic basis for ... -
CDMA Base Station Receive Co-Processor Architecture
(2007-10-23)Third generation mobile communication systems promise a greater data rate and new services to the mobile subscribers. 3G systems support up to 2 Mbps of data rate to a fixed subscriber and 144 Kbps of data rate to a fully ... -
Cell Surface Of Mycobacterium Smegmatis At The Stationary Phase : Regulation Of Gene Expression
(2009-05-21)Tuberculosis remains one of the oldest diseases known to mankind but still persists as a very major risk. Discovery of several antimycobacterials was marked by a steady decline in the active cases of pulmonary tuberculosis. ... -
Cell Survival Strategies : Role Of Gyrase Modulatory Proteins
(2010-07-21)A steady state level of negative supercoiling is essential for chromosome condensation, initiation of replication and subsequent elongation step. DNA gyrase, found in every eubacteria, serves the essential housekeeping ... -
Cellular and Molecular Features of the Response of Mycobacterium smegmatis to Rifampicin and Moxifloxacin Upon Prolonged Exposure
Bacterial persisters are a subpopulation of bacteria that can tolerate lethal concentrations of antibiotics. These are phenotypic variants that can give rise to drug‐susceptible population upon withdrawal of the antibiotic. ... -
Cellular Services Market In India : Predictive Models And Assessing Interventions
(2009-04-27)The Objective of this thesis is to address some interesting problems in the Indian cellular services market. The first problem we address relates to identifying important change points that marked the evolution of the ... -
Central and Peripheral Correlates of Motor Planning
(2018-02-11)A hallmark of human behaviour is that we can either couple or decouple our thoughts, decision and motor plans from actions. Previous studies have reported evidence of gating of information between intention and action that ... -
CFD Studies Of Pulse Tube Refrigerators
(2012-12-06)The performance evaluation and parametric studies of an Inertance Tube Pulse Tube Refrigerator (IPTR) are performed for different length-to-diameter ratios, with the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) package FLUENT. The ... -
Changes In The Duration-Depth Characteristics Of Indian Monsoon Rainfall During 1951-2000
(2010-11-22)Several previous studies have found that various characteristics of the Indian monsoon rainfall have shown secular changes over the past century. In this study, using a gridded (1degree) daily rainfall dataset, we analyse ... -
The Changing Nature Of Rainfall Annual Cycle And The Propagation Characteristics Of The Intraseasonal Oscillations In Flood And Drought Years Of The Indian Monsoon
(2010-08-30)Using a 50-year (1951-2000) gridded (1-degree) daily rainfall data set over the Indian land region, we study two main aspects of the Indian monsoon. The first aspect deals with the changing nature of the rainfall annual ... -

Characterisation and Analysis of a Vibro-fluidised Granular Material
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-12-12)The present work is concerned with the mathematical modelling of a bed of granular material in a gravitational field vertically fluidised by a vibrating surface. The particles are in rapid motion, and lose energy by inelastic ... -
Characterisation Of DNA Llgase And Pairing Activities From A Partially Purified Fraction From Rat Testis
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-04-06)Homologous genetic recombination is a central feature of meiosis in most sexually dividing organism. It leads to the establishment of new linkage relationships between genes and is crucial for the successful completion of ... -
Characterisation of Monoclonal Antibodies and Small Molecule Inhibitors as Hepatitis C Virus Entry Inhibitors
(2017-12-15)Hepatitis C virus (HCV) represents a global health threat. HCV is a blood-borne positive-strand RNA virus belonging to the Flaviviridae family that infects ~160 million people worldwide. About 70% of infected individuals ... -
Characteristics of Convective Clouds Over the Indian Monsoon Zone from Weather Radar Data
Deep convective clouds play an important role in global energy balance through vertical transport of water vapor, momentum and energy, altering radiation and also influence hydrological cycle via precipitation. These clouds ... -
Characterization and Assessment of Organically Modified Clays for Geo Environmental Applications
(2018-04-11)Clays are used for long for the control of soil and water pollution as they are inexpensive natural materials with a high adsorption capacity for a wide range of pollutants. However their use as components in engineered ...
