Aeroelasticity of Flapping Wings towards Micro Air Vehicle Applications
Studies have revealed that insect like flapping flight can serve as a benchmark in designing Micro Aerial Vehicles (MAV) owing to its power efficiency and high maneuverability. Primarily envisioned as agents facilitating ... -
AGN Feedback in Galaxy Clisters - Controlling Cooling Flows in Galaxy Clusters by Momentum-driven AGN Jets
Synopsis According to the hierarchical structure formation model, massive structures like galaxy clusters are formed due to the gravitational collapse of initial density perturbations and their subsequent mergers. ... -
Alkynones Derived from Tartaric Acid : Efficient Building Blocks for the Synthesis of Macrolactone Natural Products
(2018-07-05)The thesis describes the synthesis and application of various alkynones derived from the bis-Weinreb amide of tartaric acid in the total synthesis of macrolactone natural products. The thesis is divided into three sections. ... -
Alternate Fates of tRNAs in Initiation and Elongation
Protein synthesis in all organisms utilizes a special tRNA called the initiator tRNA. Initiator tRNAs take part in the initiation step of protein synthesis by their direct binding to the P‐site of the ribosome. The other ... -
Analysis, Control and Applications of Active Phase Converters for Single-Phase Power Grids
Single-phase distribution is a preferred approach for setting up microgrids or supplying power to rural and remote locations due to its lower infrastructure costs when compared to a three-phase grid. On the other hand, ... -
Analysis, Diagnosis and Design for System-level Signal and Power Integrity in Chip-package-systems
(2018-05-25)The Internet of Things (IoT) has ushered in an age where low-power sensors generate data which are communicated to a back-end cloud for massive data computation tasks. From the hardware perspective this implies co-existence ... -
Analytic Models, Dilations, Wandering Subspaces and Inner Functions
This thesis concerns dilation theory, analytic models, joint invariant subspaces, reproducing kernelHilbert spaces and multipliers associated to commuting tuples of bounded linear operators on Hilbert spaces. The main ... -
Analytical Modelling and Non-linear Characterisation of Piezoelectric Materials for Actuation and Vibration Control of Beams
(2018-08-29)The use of piezoelectric materials for actuation, and vibration suppression of thin beams, is the subject of study in this doctoral thesis. The initial focus is set on reducing beam vibrations with resistively shunted ... -
Analyzing Inter-modal Competition Between High Speed Rail and Conventional Transport Modes in Indian Context
Indian Railway provides an important mode of public transport in India. This is the most commonly used and cost effective long-distance transport system of the country. Indian Railways has played an immense role in ... -
Anomalous Diffusion in a Rearranging Medium Diffusing Diffusivity Models
Diffusion processes, because of their applications to a wide range of phenomena, have been a subject of great scientific interest ever since Einstein formulated the celebrated theory of Brownian motion. Brownian motion is ... -
Anti-thrombotic Secondary Metabolites from Endophytic Fungi of Datura Metel and Cassia Fistula
Blood coagulation is a process that occurs normally in an animal during bleeding, to prevent the loss of blood from the body and is assisted by two key players -blood platelets and coagulation factors particularly thrombin. ... -
