Cryogenic Instrumentation using Planar Inductor based Eddy Current Sensors
Cryogenic sensors have become vital in the measurement of crucial parameters in modern scientific research. This work addresses the design, development and testing of planar inductor eddy current sensors and associated ... -
Deciphering the evolutionary significance of maintaining cryptic genetic systems by bacteria
Cryptic genes are phenotypically silent DNA sequences with the potential to code for a function, but remain inactive during the normal life span of the organism. However they can be activated by a single mutational event ... -
Demand Response Planning in a Transitioning Electricity System
Globally, the electricity systems are undergoing major transitions from robust, carbon intensive, and firm power conventional systems to uncertain, intermittent and variable renewable energy integrated low carbon systems. ... -
Design and Development of Novel Fiber Bragg Grating based devices for various Biomedical applications
Sensors have always been an integral part of human life. Apart from the numerous inherent sensors which the human body possesses, there are various man-made sensors which has been studied and implemented widely to fulfill ... -

Organic photovoltaics is a fast-developing technology and has the potential to revolutionize the energy market. In the recent years, high photoconversion efficiency has been achieved through continuous efforts on design ... -
Design and Synthesis of New Delivery Vehicles for Anti- Cancer Therapeutics
The thesis entitled ‘‘Design and Synthesis of New Delivery Vehicles for Anti-Cancer Therapeutics’’ encloses the syntheses, characterization and bioactivity determination of the novel systems designed for achieving high ... -
Design of soluble and particulate immunogens derived from the stem of Influenza hemagglutinin
Influenza is a highly contagious virus, belonging to the family Orthomyxoviridae that causes acute febrile respiratory illness which can be fatal in some cases. The highest risk groups for influenza viral infection ... -
Design, Development and Characterisation of piezoelectric microvalve for electric propulsion system
The advanced geostationary communication satellites have shown trends in terms of increased power, life and payload mass. For these platforms, Electric Propulsion Systems (EPS) offer an attractive option for overall mass ... -
Design, Synthesis and Optical Characterization of Thiophene Based Luminophore
We successfully designed and synthesized a series of thiophene based luminophores. We were able to modulate the optical band gap of these luminophores by systematically fine-tuning the chemical structure of these compounds. ... -
Determination of significance of SUMOylation of the Smc5/6 complex
The fascination of scientists to the Smc5/6 complex began in the 1990s, with the characterization of UV and γ radiation-sensitive rad18 mutant and its identification as a component of a novel Structural Maintenance of ... -
Devanagari Online Handwritten Character Recognition
In this thesis, a classifier based on local sub-unit level and global character level representations of a character, using stroke direction and order variations independent features, is developed for recognition of ... -
Development and application of sequence-based approaches for recognition and functional characterization of protein kinases
Protein kinases, the third most populous protein family, are a major class of enzymes that regulate a wide range of cellular processes by phosphorylating multiple cellular proteins. There are many conserved sequence motifs ... -
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 wrought Mg‒7Sn‒3Zn alloy with improved strength and ductility
The current focus of research in Mg alloys is to develop wrought alloys suitable for the automotive industry. The challenges to be overcome are low strength, poor ductility, and high cost associated with wrought Mg‒based ... -
Development of advanced regularization methods to improve photoacoustic tomography
Photoacoustic tomography (PAT) is a scalable imaging modality having huge potential for imaging biological samples at very high depth to resolution ratio, thereby playing pivotal role in the areas of neuroscience, ... -
Development of an Automated Test & Parameter Extraction Tool for Active Matrix Displays
Active matrix backplanes used in at panel displays are prone to line faults (opens and shorts) and pixel faults (poor transistor performance and parameter variations). These faults could occur during fabrication or ... -
Development of Copper Telluride based Thermoelectric Materials Synthesis, Microstructure and Properties
Thermoelectric materials play an important role in harvesting the waste heat into useful electrical energy. Since thermoelectricity can lead to a clean energy conversion technology, it is important to find suitable TE ... -
Development of high throughput methodologies to isolate stabilized mutants and to identify interfacial residues
When eukaryotic or unstable proteins are overexpressed in bacteria, these often form insoluble aggregates called inclusion bodies (IB). Refolding the proteins from inclusion bodies can be challenging, resulting in low ... -
