Computerized Landmarking And Anthropometry Over Laser Scanned 3D Head And Face Surface Meshes
(2008-01-11)
Understanding of the shape and size of different features of human body from the scanned data is necessary for automated design and evaluation of product ergonomics. The traditional method of finding required body dimensions ...
Surface Energy Budget Over A Land Surface In The Tropics
(2009-05-21)
Atmospheric convection is sensitive to the nature of the surface and its temperature. Both dry (without cloud) and moist (with cloud) convections depend on the surface temperature. Surface temperature is of critical ...
Experimental And Computational Investigations Of Underexpanded Jets From Elliptical Sonic Nozzles
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-10-25)
Three dimensional nozzles and jet flows have attracted the attention of many researchers due to their potential application to many practical devices. Rectangular nozzles are considered for short/vertical take off and ...
Autonomous Orbit Estimation For Near Earth Satellites Using Horizon Scanners
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-10-20)
Autonomous navigation is the determination of satellites position and velocity vectors onboard the satellite, using the measurements available onboard. The orbital information of a satellite needs to be obtained to support ...
On The Reduction Of Drag Of a Sphere By Natural Ventilation
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-07-08)
The problem of bluff body flows and the drag associated with them has been the subject of numerous investigations in the literature. In the two-dimensional case, the flow past a circular cylinder has been most widely studied ...
Computational Studies On Certain Problems Of Combustion Instability In Solid Propellants
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-11-17)
This thesis presents the results and analyses of computational studies on certain problems of combustion instability in solid propellants. Specifically, effects of relaxing certain assumptions made in previous models of ...
Analysis Of Solar Pumped Chemical Oxygen Iodine Laser
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-10-11)
Chemical Oxygen Iodine Laser(COIL) is an electronic transition high energy chemical laser having a wavelength of 1.315 /mi. This is the first chemical laser to operate on an electronic rather than a rotational or vibrational ...
Turbulent Near Wake Behind An Infinitely Yawed Flat Plate
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-09-20)
Near wake is the region of wake flow just behind the trailing edge of the body where the flow is strongly influenced by the upstream flow conditions and also perhaps by the characteristics of the body. The present work ...
A Methodology To Recover Unstable Aircraft From Post Stall Regimes: Design And Analysis
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-07-26)
This thesis deals with high angle of attack behaviour of a generic delta wing model aircraft. A high angle of attack wind tunnel database has been generated for this aircraft and based upon the bifurcation analysis of the ...
Application Of Controlled Random Search Optimization Technique In MMLE With Process Noise
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-08-08)
Generally in most of the applications of estimation theory using the Method of Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MMLE) to dynamical systems one deals with a situation where only the measurement noise alone is present. However ...
