Lightning Protection System To Indian Satellite Launch Pads : Stroke Classification And Evaluation Of Current In The Intercepted Strokes
(2009-03-11)Satellites have become absolute necessity in the growing modern space technology. At present, launch pads are the only means for launching of satellites or any other space vehicles. Due to the large magnitude of current ... -
Lightning Shielding Failure Analysis of Ultra High Voltage Power Transmission Lines
(2018-08-14)In India, the natural energy resources (thermal and hydro) are unevenly distributed and are mostly present in the remote areas and the load centers are distributed across various regions of the country. Therefore high ... -
Lightning Threat to Cables on Tall Towers and the Question of Electrical Isolation
(2018-04-23)Electromagnetic effects of lightning currents during a direct hit to tall communication towers, other instrumented towers and chimneys can be hazardous to associated cables, as well as, electrical and electronics systems. ... -
Lignin and Extractive Tracing - an Alternative approach to Assess and Predict Biogas Yields and Production Rates among Tropical Biomass Feedstocks
Predicting biogas yields from the composition of biomass feedstocks has been difficult primarily due to the variations found in their chemical composition and structure of lignocellulosics. This study aims at understanding, ... -
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 block source coding for binary memoryless sources
Despite the existence of well-defined rate-distortion functions for general binary memoryless sources (BMS), block source coding theory has traditionally been restricted to sources with equiprobable symbols, in which case ... -
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 analysis of fluid flow adjacent to a flexible surface
Fluid flow adjacent to a flexible surface is often encountered in biological systems and bio-technological processes. These flows have been analyzed using models similar to those for the flow past a rigid surface, but the ... -
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 ... -
Linguistic anlaysis of stuttering patterns among monolinguals and bilinguals
It is concluded from this study that stuttering is influenced by two major factors: phonetic factors and factors associated with the encoding process of speech. The results also support Bloodstein's anticipatory struggle ... -
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 ... -
Liquefaction response of the sand reinforced with 3D printed geocells
Geocells are one of the most widely used geosynthetics, owing to their three-dimensional interconnected cellular structure that allows immediate support to heavy loads and provides high lateral confinement and wider ...
