Dissecting the role of Ataxin 2 Binding Protein 1 in sarcomeric protein stoichiometry and generation of muscle diversity in Drosophila melanogaster
Drosophila muscles are an excellent model to study muscle development, diversity and function. Drosophila muscles consist of two major types –1. Indirect Flight Muscles (IFM), that are fibrillar; as opposed to other tubular ... -
Distributed Target Tracking in Camera Networks
Recently, there is a tremendous increase in usage of multi-camera set-up in many applications such as surveillance, smart homes, sports analysis etc. Since manual analysis of videos in multi-camera set-up is tedious and ... -
A Divide and Conquer Framework For Graph Processing in Distributed Heterogeneous Systems
In many fields of science and engineering graph data structures are used to represent real-world information. As these graphs scale in size, it becomes very inefficient to process these graphs on a single core CPU using ... -
Droplet Interface Oscillations using Electrowetting-on-Dielectric (EWOD) for Open-Chip Microfluidic Applications
Droplet manipulation on microfluidic platform has gained significant importance due to its applicability to various healthcare technologies, where larger equipment can be reduced to portable handheld systems based on ... -
Duality for Spaces of Holomorphic Functions into a Locally Convex Topological Vector Space
Consider an open subset O of the complex plane and a function f : O ÝÑ C. We understand the concept of holomorphicity of a complex-valued function. Suppose a function f defined on O takes values in a locally convex ... -
Dynamic Strain Aging and Creep in near-α Ti Alloy, IMI834
IMI 834 is a near- Ti alloy used in high temperature applications such as compressor discs and blades of aero engines. Titanium alloys including IMI 834 are known to exhibit dynamic strain aging (DSA) over the temperature ... -
Effect of Copper on Strength of Super 304H Austenitic Stainless Steel
Super 304H is a copper-containing austenitic stainless steel with potential applications in advanced thermal power plants owing to its superior corrosion, oxidation, creep resistances and cost affordability. The addition ... -
Effect of processing on texture and microstructure in Aluminium-Lithium alloys and its consequences on mechanical properties
Lightweight Aluminium -Lithium based alloys have high potential for use in aerospace structural components. However, large anisotropy in mechanical properties restricts the use of these alloys. The alloy AA2195 (Al-Li-Cu-Mg-Ag-Zr) ... -
Effect of Rainfall and River Discharge on the North Indian Ocean
In the north Indian Ocean, the Bay of Bengal (BoB or bay) and the Eastern Arabian Sea (EAS) receive a huge amount of rainfall during summer. Several rivers along their boundaries discharge enormous amounts of freshwater ... -
Efficacy of Solar irradiance, Methane and Black carbon aerosols
In climate science literature, the concept of radiative forcing is used to infer the equilibrium temperature change that would occur as a result of changes in the forcing agents such as greenhouse gases and aerosols. ... -
Efficient and Resilient Stream Processing in Distributed Shared Environment
Internet of Things (IoT) deployments comprising of sensors and actuators collect observational data and provide continuous streams of data, often called streaming data or fast data. Smart Cities use such IoT technologies ... -
Efficient Quantum Algorithms for Linear Algebra Problems
Many simulation problems can be expressed as time evolution under specific interactions, from some simple initial state to a final state whose properties are to be investigated. In this context, the Hamiltonian evolution ... -
Electrical and Opto-Electronic Devices Based on SnSe2 Thin Films
SnSe2 is a semiconductor with unique and interesting properties such as band gap with layer thickness dependence. Theoretically, it has been predicted that the band gap can be varied between 1.2 and 2.04 eV. This range of ... -
Electromagnetic interference shielding materials derived from epoxy based nanocomposites
The thesis entitled “EMI shielding materials derived from epoxy based nanocomposites” systematically studies the effect of CF and surface modified CF on the EMI shielding of epoxy composites. In addition, to target the ... -
Electronic transport in low dimensional LaAlO3/SrTiO3 heterointerface
The large variety of phenomena exhibited by the interface between two band-insulators LaAlO3 and SrTiO3 has attracted intense research activity in recent years.The interplay of different symmetries, viz. point group ... -
