Static And Dynamic Behaviour Of Cement Stabilised Rammed Earth Panels And Building Models
(2011-01-10)
Rammed earth is one of the earliest building materials used for structural walls. Stabilised rammed earth is a variant of traditional or pure rammed earth that involves addition of a small amount of cement to improve ...
Application Of Polynomial Reproducing Schemes To Nonlinear Mechanics
(2011-03-15)
The application of polynomial reproducing methods has been explored in the context of linear and non linear problems. Of specific interest is the application of a recently developed reproducing scheme, referred to as the ...
Investigations Of Polymer Grafted Lipid Bilayers Using Dissipative Particle Dynamics
(2011-01-25)
Lipid molecules are amphiphilic in nature consisting of a hydrophilic head group and hydrophobic hydrocarbon tails. The lipid bilayer consists of two layers of lipid molecules arranged with their hydrophobic tails facing ...
Methane Storage In Activated Carbon Nanostructures : A Combined Density Functional And Monte Carlo Study
(2011-08-04)
Natural gas is stored as compressed natural gas (CNG) in heavy steel cylinders under pressures of 200-250 atm. However, such a method of storage has certain disadvantages which include multistage compression costs, limited ...
Regional Frequency Analysis Of Hydrometeorological Events - An Approach Based On Climate Information
(2011-04-01)
The thesis is concerned with development of efficient regional frequency analysis (RFA) approaches to estimate quantiles of hydrometeorological events. The estimates are necessary for various applications in water resources ...
