Dynamics Of Activated Processes Involving Chain Molecules
(2009-09-11)This thesis presents our recent study of few interesting problems involving activated processes. This chapter gives an overview of the thesis. It is now possible to do single molecule experiments involving enzyme molecules. ... -
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 Bubbles and Drops in the Presence of an Electric Field
(2018-07-16)The present thesis deals with two-phase electrohydrodynamic simulations of bubble and droplet dynamics under externally applied electric fields. We used the Coupled Level-Set and Volume-of-fluid method (CLSVOF) and two ... -
Dynamics Of Cricket Song Towards Nature-inspired MEMS Speakers
(2016-09-15)The clever designs of natural transducers are a great source of inspiration for man-made systems. At small length scales, there are many transducers in nature that we are now beginning to understand and learn from. Here, ... -
Dynamics of Droplets Under Support, Acoustic And/Or Ambient Flow Excitation
(2018-04-24)The first step on the way to understanding the complicated dynamics of spray is to study the behavior of isolated droplets. In many industrial and natural processes such as turbulent combustion, agricultural sprays, spray ... -
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 ... -
The Dynamics Of Erosion Of Gradient-Zone In Solar Ponds

Dynamics of glass forming liquids with emphasis on vibrational modes
The potential energy landscape (PEL) description is regarded as one of the fundamental landmarks in the theory of glass transition, which has found wide applications not only in the understanding of disordered materials ... -
Dynamics of Glass-Forming Liquids and Shear-Induced Grain Growth in Dense Colloidal Suspensions
(2018-06-19)The work presented in this doctoral thesis employs colloidal suspensions to explore key open problems in condensed matter physics. Colloidal suspensions, along with gels, polymers, emulsions and liquid crystals belong to ... -
Dynamics of Hollow Cone Spray in an Unconfined, Isothermal, Co-Annular Swirling Jet Environment
(2018-07-20)The complex multiphase flow physics of spray-swirl interaction in both reacting and non-reacting environment is of fundamental and applied significance for a wide variety of applications ranging from gas turbine combustors ... -
Dynamics of Invariant Object Representations in the Monkey Inferotemporal Cortex
(2018-06-18)Vision is computationally challenging because objects in the real world can change in size, position, viewpoint etc., and therefore cast a myriad images on the retina. Viewpoint changes are particularly challenging because ... -
The Dynamics of Iron in Miniferritins : A Structure-Function Connection
(2017-11-23)The DNA binding proteins under starvation (Dps) from M. smegmatis are cage-like structures which internalize iron and bind DNA. They provide resistance to the cells from free radical damage, and physically protect the DNA ... -
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 Leidenfrost droplets on microtextured substrates
A liquid droplet placed on a heated substrate at temperatures significantly higher than the saturation temperature of the liquid levitates over a thin film of vapor and is termed as a Leidenfrost (LF) droplet. Leidenfrost ... -
Dynamics of Protein Kinases : Its Relationship to Functional Sites and States
(2018-05-22)A cell is a highly complex, ordered, and above all, a robust system. It copes with in-trennel and external uncertainties like heterogeneous stimuli, errors in processing and execution, and changes within and outside the ... -
Dynamics of Quantum Supercooled Liquids: A Mode Coupling Approach
In this thesis, I use the quantum mode coupling theory (QMCT) formulation to study the dynamics in a supercooled liquid to understand how quantum fluctuations affect the liquid-glass transition. I calculate the Kubo-transformed ... -
Dynamics of Research Scholar-Supervisor Relationship : A Study of Conflict Resolution among Indian Research Scholars
(2018-07-16)The pivotal role that R&D plays in a nation’s development is well recognized globally. Even India has made long strides in this area post-independence. However, it is plagued by issues such as lack of investment, dearth ... -
Dynamics of river plumes in the Bay of Bengal
The Bay of Bengal (BoB) receives a large amount of freshwater through runoff from sev- eral rivers along its border. This large freshwater gain has severe implications on the dynamics and thermodynamics of the BoB as ... -
