(2017-12-03)This thesis titled, “Nature of Local Interactions at cisPro-Aro Peptide Sequences in Proteins: Evidences for van der Waals type Interactions. Design and Synthesis of Novel Covalent Surrogates for the Peptide Hydrogen Bond”, ... -
Neuronal Dissimilarity Indices that Predict Oddball Detection in Behaviour
(2017-09-23)Our vision is as yet unsurpassed by machines because of the sophisticated representations of objects in our brains. This representation is vastly different from a pixel-based representation used in machine storages. It is ... -
New Algorithms for Some Economic Dispatch Problems
(2018-01-01)An electric power system consists of several generating stations which cater to the load demands of various regions. The prime function of any generating utility is to optimally schedule the real power output of its ... -
New Models and Methods for Formation and Analysis of Social Networks
Social networks are an inseparable part of human lives, and play a major role in a wide range of activities in our day-to-day as well as long-term lives. The rapid growth of online social networks has enabled people to ... -
NMR Solution Structures of Human γC-Crystallin & the Intrinsically Disordered Viral Genome Linked Protein in the Free & Bound Form
(2018-02-14)This thesis describes the tertiary structures and dynamic studies of two protein systems. The first is human γC -crystallin protein, which is present in the nucleus of the human eye lens and the other is the plant viral ... -
Nonequilibrium Fluctuations, Quantum Optical Responses and Thermodynamics of Molecular Junctions
(2018-02-06)Mankind has come a long way since the invention of wheel to accessing information in the quintillionth of a second. At the heart of every invention ever made, there has been only one objective, to ease the way of living. ... -
Novel 1-D and 2-D Carbon Nanostructures Based Absorbers for Photothermal Applications
(2018-03-02)Solar thermal energy is emerging as an important source of renewable energy for meeting the ever-increasing energy requirements of the world. Solar selective coatings are known to enhance the efficiency of the photo thermal ... -
A Novel Generalized Analytical Framework to Diagnose True Radial and Axial Displacements in an Actual Transformer Winding
(2017-12-02)Frequency response analysis (FRA) has emerged as the de-facto industry standard condition-monitoring tool to assess mechanical integrity of transformer windings during its service life. It the prerequisite detection ... -
Nucleic Acid-binding Adenylyl Cyclases in Mycobacteria : Studies on Evolutionary & Biochemical Aspects
(2018-02-08)Mycobacterium tuberculosis is one of the most successful human pathogens, estimated to have infected close to one-third of the global human population. In order to survive within its host, M. tuberculosis utilises multiple ... -
Number Theoretic, Computational and Cryptographic Aspects of a Certain Sequence of Arithmetic Progressions
(2018-06-21)This thesis introduces a new mathematical object: collection of arithmetic progressions with elements satisfying the inverse property, \j-th terms of i-th and (i+1)-th progressions are multiplicative inverses of each other ... -
A Numerical Implementation of an Artery Model Using Hybrid Fem
(2017-12-07)The goal of this thesis is to develop a hybrid _nite element formulation to carry out stress analysis of arteries. To the best of our knowledge, a hybrid _nite element impel mentation of the Holzapfel-Ogden artery model ... -
Numerical Investigation of Masonry Infilled RC Frames Subjected to Seismic Loading
(2018-02-21)Reinforced concrete frames, infilled with brick/concrete block masonry, are the most common type of structures found in multi-storeyed constructions, especially in developing countries. Usually, the infill walls are ... -
Numerical Investigation of Segmented Electrode Designs for the Cylindrical Ion Trap and the Orbitrap Mass Analyzers
(2018-02-08)This thesis is a numerical study of fields within ion traps having segmented electrodes1. The focus is on two cylindrical ion trap structures, two Orbit rap structures and one planar structure which mimics the field of the ... -
A Numerical Study of Droplet Dynamics in Viscoelastic Flows
(2017-10-05)The polymers are integral part of vast number of products used in day to day life due to their anomalous viscoelastic behaviour. The remarkable flow behaviour exhibited by the polymeric fluids including rod climbing, ... -
On Learning k-Parities and the Complexity of k-Vector-SUM
(2018-02-06)In this work, we study two problems: first is one of the central problem in learning theory of learning sparse parities and the other k-Vector-SUM is an extension of the not oriousk-SUM problem. We first consider the problem ... -
Optical Tweezers and Its use in Studying Red Blood Cells - Healthy and Infected
(2017-11-29)The experiment discussed in the next chapter was to confirm the aforementioned bystander effect. In the first experiment we separated hosting and non-hosting mRBCs by the percol purification method and then measured the corner ... -
Optimal Control of Information Epidemics in Homogeneously And Heterogeneously Mixed Populations
