Parametric Manipulation in 2D Material based NEMS Resonators
In this this thesis, I have studied dynamics of the two-dimensional (2D) material based NEMS resonators with resonant frequency ranging typically from 10 MHz to 100 MHz. The experiment involved fabrication of the ... -
Parietal and prefrontal control of distinct components of attention
In this thesis, we investigate behavioural mechanisms and neural substrates of distinct components of endogenous spatial attention. Endogenous attention facilitates neural processing of the selected stimulus through one ... -
Partial Slip Contacts in Linear Viscoelasticity
(2017-10-05)This work analyzes partial slip contact problems in the theory of linear viscoelasticity using both the semi-analytical method and nite element method. Such problems arise in metal-polymer contacts in orthopedic implants ... -
Particle Dynamics In A Turbulent Particle-Gas Suspension At High Stokes Number
(2010-12-08)Particle laden turbulent flows find applications in many industrial processes such as energy conversion, air pollution control etc. In these types of flows, there are strong coupling between the turbulent fluctuations in ... -
Particles and Fields in Partial-differential-equation Models for fluid and Superfluid Turbulence
We have shown that uniformly rotating vortex-containing gravitationally-bound solutions of the GPPE can be generated by starting the evolution from initial data obtained by integrating to convergence the (imaginary-time) ... -
Particles and Fields in Superfluid Turbulence : Numerical and Theoretical Studies
(2017-12-16)In this thesis we study a variety of problems in superfluid turbulence, princi-pally in two dimensions. A summary of the main results of our studies is given below; we indicate the Chapters in which we present these. In ... -
Passive Earth Pressure Coefficients And There Applications In The Uplift Capacity Of Anchors
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-10-13)The problem of passive earth pressure is one of the important topics in Geotechnical engineering. At attempt is made in this thesis to generate passive earth pressure coefficients for general c-Φ soils using logarithmic ... -
Path Integral Approach to Levy Flights and Hindered Rotations
(2018-04-12)Path integral approaches have been widely used for long in both quantum mechanics as well as statistical mechanics. In addition to being a tool for obtaining the probability distributions of interest(wave functions in the ... -
Pathogen-derived volatiles modulate flight or fight response in Caenorhabditis elegans
In nature, the interaction between two organisms largely relies on their ability to sense and respond to each other, which involves many specific chemicals and signaling pathways. Animals have evolved mechanisms to detect ... -
Patterns and Drivers of Multimodal Signalling in Diurnal Geckos
Effective communication in animals comprise emission of a signal by a signaller and a response by a receiver, such that the interaction is beneficial to either only the signaller, or both the signaller and the receiver. ... -
PDMS-Based Nanocomposite for EMI Shielding application
Lightweight, flexible, and easy-to-integrate solutions are in great demand in electronic devices. The present work deals with the preparation of Poly dimethyl siloxane (PDMS) based nanocomposite for suppressing electromagnetic ... -
A Peer To Peer Web Proxy Cache For Enterprise Networks
(2009-09-10)In this thesis, we propose a decentralized peer-to-peer (P2P) Web proxy cache for enterprise networks (ENs). Currently, enterprises use a centralized proxy-based Web cache, where a dedicated proxy server does the caching. ... -
Peptidase N, A Major Aminopeptidase Belonging To The M1 Family : Biochemical And Functional Implications
(2009-08-05)Intracellular protein degradation is required for maintaining the cellular proteome and regulating cellular processes. This pathway involves proximal ATP-dependent proteases that unfold and translocate proteins targeted ... -
Perceptual Criterion Based Rate Control And Fast Mode Search For Spatial Intra Prediction In Video Coding
(2010-03-11)This thesis dwells on two important problems in the field of video coding; namely rate control and spatial domain intra prediction. While the former is applicable generally to most video compression standards, the latter ... -
Perceptual Quality Assessment of Lowlight Restored and Authentically Distorted Images
The capability of hand-held devices to acquire high-definition visual content has led to a tremendous increase in the number of images and videos captured daily. However, camera hardware and pipelines are not perfect and ...
