Lineage delimitation and diversification in Nyctibatrachus, an endemic frog genus from the Western Ghats
Determining how biodiversity is produced and maintained remains one of the fundamental questions in ecology. The phenomenon of diversification, which occurs via the interplay of speciation and extinction, holds the key ... -
Linear and Nonlinear Ultrafast Time Resolved Spectroscopy of Topological Insulators, Weyl Semimetals and Semiconducting Nanowires
Ultrafast time resolved spectroscopy has recently gained immense significance due to its potential capability to explore the dynamics of photoexcited carriers in condensed matter systems. The technique has proved to be a ... -
Linear Dynamical Systems with Sparsity Constraints: Theory and Algorithms
This thesis develops new mathematical theory and presents novel recovery algorithms for discrete linear dynamical systems (LDS) with sparsity constraints on either control inputs or initial state. The recovery problems ... -

Linear Instability Of Laterally Strained Constant Pressure Boundary Layer Flows
(Indian Institute of Science, 2007-03-26)The linear instability of laterally diverging/converging flows is an important aspect towards understanding the laminar-transition process in many viscous flows. In this work the linear instability of constant pressure ... -
Linear Nanopositioning Systems for Scanning Probe Microscopy
Scanning probe microscopes (SPM) are vital for visualizing and characterizing samples of interest to various fields with nanometer resolution, such as semiconductor fabrication, microbiology, and material engineering. The ... -
Linear Network Coding For Wireline And Wireless Networks
(2010-02-10)Network Coding is a technique which looks beyond traditional store-and-forward approach followed by routers and switches in communication networks, and as an extension introduces maps termed as ‘local encoding kernels’ and ... -
Linear Stability Models for Reacting Mixing Layers
(2018-03-12)We develop a physics-based reduced-order model of the aero-acoustic sound sources in reacting mixing layers as a method for fast and accurate predictions of the radiated sound. Instabilities in low-speed mixing layers are ... -
Lip Y, The PE Family Triacylglycerol Hydrolase From Mycobacterium Tuberculosis : Functional Role Of The PE Domain And Immunogenicity
(2010-10-28)More human lives have been lost to tuberculosis than to any other disease and despite the availability of effective short course chemotherapy (DOTS) as well as the Bacilli Calmette Guerin (BCG) vaccine, tuberculosis continues ... -
Liquefaction Resistance and Cyclic Response of Air - Injected Desaturated Clean Sandy Soil: Experimental and Numerical Investigations
Liquefaction has been one of the major concerns in the field of geotechnical earthquake engineering. Various mitigation techniques such as vibroflotation, deep dynamic compaction, explosive compaction, grouting, deep soil ... -
Liquid bridge breakup and detachment dynamics investigated using dynamic domain multiphase flow simulations
Liquid bridges, formed between two solid surfaces in close proximity are encountered in a variety of engineering and daily life applications. The dynamics of a liquid bridge including its evolution that typically involves ... -
Liquid Jet in Swirling Cross Flow
Liquid jets in cross flows (JICF) have been an important part of spray research in the last few decades owing to the wide spectrum of applications ranging from agricultural sprays to aircraft gas turbine engines. However, ... -
Liquid jet injection into a supersonic crossflow: Influence of jet orifice shape on penetration and atomization
Liquid jet injection into supersonic crossflow is one of the conceptually simple ways of fuel atomization in SCRAMJET engines. The success of these engines demands the efficient mixing of incoming supersonic air and the ... -
Lithium Exposure Induced Changes At Glutamatergic Synapses In Hippocampal Neurons- Insights From In Vitro Electrophysiology And Imaging Studies
(2016-11-15)Lithium is a drug used to treat mood disorders and also has many side effects, including central nervous system (CNS) complications (such as cognitive dulling), associated with its use. The mechanism of its action still ... -
Living on the Edge A Study of Boundary Modes In Two-dimensional Topological Systems
In the last few decades an enormous amount of research has been carried out on some novel phases of matter called topological phases which are beyond the paradigm of Landau’s theory of symmetry breaking. One of the ... -
Load Commutated SCR Current Source Inverter Fed Induction Motor Drive With Sinusoidal Motor Voltage And Current
(2010-07-12)This thesis deals with modeling, simulation and implementation of Load Commutated SCR based current source Inverter (LCI) fed squirrel cage induction motor drive with sinusoidal voltage and sinusoidal current. In the ... -
Load Modulated Arrays for Multi-antenna Wireless Communications
Conventional multi-antenna transmitters use a separate RF chain (consisting of DACs, mixers, filters) and a power amplifier (PA) for each antenna element, and use modulation alphabets such as QAM/PSK for transmission. The ... -
Local Interactions, Spatial Patterns and Ecosystem Stability
Many ecosystems exhibit striking patterns in the spatial distribution of organisms, for example, patterns of clumping and dispersion in semi-arid vegetation, mussel in intertidal beds and even sea-grass and macroalgae. ...
