Development and Validation of Novel Methods for Measuring and Tracking Clean Energy Transitions: Case Studies from Rural India
Modern energy sources are crucial to gain all the benefits that modern living affords and is central to our idea of holistic human development. While they pose multitude benefits over their traditional counterparts, they ... -
Development And Validation Of Two-Dimensional Mathematical Model Of Boron Carbide Manufacturing Process
(2009-03-06)Boron carbide is produced in a heat resistance furnace using boric oxide and petroleum coke as the raw materials. In this process, a large current is passed through the graphite rod located at the center of the cylindrical ... -
Development of 2D and 3D Sketching Environment to Support Early Phases of Design
(2018-04-06)The traditional pen-paper sketching is extensively used in the early stages of product design as it supports creative exploration of product concepts and provides a fluidic mode for the expression of ideas. The Computer ... -
Development of 3D model and understanding translational regulation of breast cancer
Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in India and worldwide. It is a highly heterogeneous disease caused by several genetic and epigenetic alterations in mammary epithelial cells. Both inter- and intra-patient ... -
Development of a coarsening resistant microstructure in precipitation strengthened aluminium alloys with Zr, Ta and Hf
The work herein aims at developing precipitation-strengthened aluminium-copper (Al-Cu) alloys that can meet the current challenges of the aeronautical and automobile sectors to increase the fuel efficiency where operating ... -
Development of a Flexible Actuator and Motion Planning for Endoscopic Robots
Endoscopy is a procedure by which a long flexible device called the `endoscope' is inserted into a patient's gastro-intestinal(GI) tract primarily for diagnosis. An endoscope is typically equipped with a camera, ... -
Development Of A Knowledge-Based Hybrid Methodology For Vehicle Side Impact Safety Design
(2011-08-05)The present research work has been carried out to develop a unified knowledge-based hybrid methodology combining regression-based, lumped parameter and finite element analyses that can be implemented in the initial phase ... -
Development of a low modulus Ti-Nb-Ta-O alloy for orthopedic applications
Ti-Nb-Ta-Zr based β-Titanium alloys are currently projected as potential candidates for use in orthopaedic implants owing to their low elastic modulus and use of non-toxic elements. However, most of these alloys contain ... -

Development Of A New Finite-Volume Lattice Boltzmann Formulation And Studies On Benchmark Flows
(2011-06-30)This thesis is concerned with the new formulation of a finite-volume lattice Boltzmann equation method and its implementation on unstructured meshes. The finite-volume discretization with a cell-centered tessellation is ... -
Development of a novel LPG/PNG domestic burner for high efficiency and low emissions
Domestic cooking is one of the basic human needs, and cookstoves based on fuel combustion are widely used. LPG (Liquified Petroleum Gas) is the most common cooking fuel, followed by PNG (Piped Natural Gas), which has an ... -
Development of a Planar Robotic Platform with Localized Magnetic Actuation and its Applications for Untethered Ferromagnetic Robots and Shape-morphing Compliant Robots
This thesis focuses on the development of a solenoid-grid-based setup for independent planar actuation of multiple ferromagnetic robots referred to as ferrobots, by locally varying the magnetic field in different regions ... -
