Distributed Computation With Communication Delays: Design And Analysis Of Load Distribution Strategies
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-11-09)Load distribution problems in distributed computing networks have attracted much attention in the literature. A major objective in these studies is to distribute the processing load so as to minimize the time of processing ... -
Drilling Damage in Laminated Polymer Matrix Composites Considering Thermal Efefcts: Experimental and Numerical Analysis
In the present work, drilling induced damage in multi-directional carbon fiber reinforced polymer (MD-CFRP) laminates has been investigated by experimental and numerical approaches. Exit-ply delamination during drilling ... -
Dynamic behavior of electro-rheological fluid sandwich beams
Electrorheological (ER) fluids are fluids with controllable rheological properties. The study of change in rheology of suspensions due to application of electric field is of interest both from academic and industrial points ... -
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 ... -
Dynamics And Stability Of A Launch Vehicle
(2011-07-08)Stability is an important criterion in the design and performance of launch vehicles. Present day launch vehicles have become more and more flexible due to the constraints of weight reduction, necessarily imposed for ... -
Dynamics of Actuated and Interacting Swirl Premixed Flames in Model Gas Turbine Combustors
Lean premixed combustion is preferred in gas turbines because of the reduced (NOx) emissions. However, the combustors operating in lean premixed regime could suffer from problems like flame flashback, flame blowoff and ... -
Dynamics Of Early Stages Of Transition In A Laminar Separation Bubble
(2010-04-12)This is an experimental and theoretical study of a laminar separation bubble and the associated transition dynamics in its early stages. The separation of a laminar boundary layer from a solid surface is prevalent in very ... -
Dynamics of Laminar Separation Bubbles on Low Reynolds Number Airfoils
This is a detailed study on the aerodynamics of low Reynolds number airfoils. E387 airfoil that comes under the category of trailing-edge stall is used extensively in this study. The reduction in lift due to low Reynolds ... -
Dynamics Of Water Drops Impacting Onto The Junction Of Dual-Textured Substrates Comprising Hydrophobic And Hydrophilic Portions
(2014-11-24)The research topic of liquid drop interaction with solid surfaces is being actively pursued to gain in-depth understanding of several practical cases such as the impingement of fuel spray droplets on surfaces like combustion ... -
Edge Effect of Semi-Infinite Rectangular Posts on Impacting Drops
(2018-05-30)The inhibiting effect of a sharp edge on liquid spreading is well observed during drop interaction with textured surfaces. On groove-textured solid surfaces comprising unidirectional parallel grooves, the edge effect of ... -
Effect of a Mesh on Boundary Layer Transition Induced by Free-stream Turbulence and an Isolated Roughness Element
(2018-06-23)A high level of free-stream turbulence and surface roughness are known to cause breakdown of an otherwise stable laminar flow. In transition induced by free-stream turbulence, streaks are formed due to the lift-up effect ... -
Effect of convex transverse surface curvature on transition and other properties of incompressible boundary layer.
A study of the incompressible boundary layer with transverse surface curvature has been made with particular reference to transition from laminar to turbulent flow. Calculations based on linearised hydrodynamic stability ... -
Effect Of Cross-sectional Nonlinearities On Anisotropic Strip-based Mechanisms
(2013-05-28)The goal of this work is to develop and demonstrate a comprehensive analysis of single and multi-body composite strip-beam systems using an asymptotically-correct geometrically nonlinear theory. The comprehensiveness ... -
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 ... -
Effect of Favourable Pressure Gradient on Turbulence in Boundary Layers
(2018-07-16)This thesis explores the effects of favourable pressure gradient on the structure of turbulent boundary layers (TBL). In this context, the structure of three types of boundary layers namely a zero-pressure-gradient ... -
