Fine-Scale Structure Of Diurnal Variations Of Indian Monsoon Rainfall : Observational Analysis And Numerical Modeling
(2010-12-31)
In the current study, we have presented a systematic analysis of the diurnal cycle of rainfall over the Indian region using satellite observations, and evaluated the ability of the Weather Research and Forecasting Model ...
Intraseasonal Variations In Sea Level Pressure And Association With Tropical Convection
(2010-07-19)
This thesis deals with tropical intraseasonal variation (TISV) having time scales in 20-80 day range. Variations on this time scale have been observed to have profound influence on the weather and climate of the entire ...
Measurements And Modelling Of Internal Waves In The Northeastern Arabian Sea
(2010-08-30)
Internal waves (IWs) owe their existence to the stratification in the medium. These waves affect acoustic transmission greatly. Impact of these waves on acoustic transmission in deep water is fairly well understood due ...
Aerosol Absorption And Source Characteristics Over Different Environments
(2010-11-02)
Extremely fine liquid droplets or solid particles, those remain suspended in the air, are known as aerosols. They are produced by natural sources and anthropogenic activities. Several types of aerosols produced by different ...
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 ...
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 ...
Investigation Of Ramp/Cowl Shock Interaction Processes Near A Generic Scramjet Inlet At Hypersonic Mach Number
(2010-08-05)
One of the major technological innovations that are necessary for faster and cheaper access-to-space will be the commercial realization of supersonic combustion jet engines (SCRAMJET). The establishment of the flow through ...
Multi-Agent Search Using Voronoi Partition
(2010-08-05)
This thesis addresses a multi-agent search problem where several agents, equipped with sensors and communication devices, search an unknown area. Lack of information about the search space is modeled as an uncertainty ...
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 ...
Dynamic Response Of A Satellite With Flexible Appendages And Its Passive Control
(2010-11-25)
Most present day spacecrafts have large interconnected solar panels. The dynamic behavior of the spacecraft in orbit can be modeled as a free rigid mass with flexible elements attached to it. The natural frequencies of ...
