Palladium and Nickel Chalcogenides as Electrocatalysts
(2017-12-02)In recent years, there has been an increasing interest on renewable energy sources as substitute to fossil fuels. Among various processes of energy generation, electrochemical methods such as storage and conversion systems, ... -
Palladium Catalyzed Refunctionalizations of Olefins : Novel Strategies for Construction of C-C, C-Hetero Bonds and Homogeneous Hydrogenation
(2018-07-18)Chapter 1: Metal carbenoids in organic synthesis The chapter describes the phenomena of metal carbenoid insertion reactions in two parts: Part A, and Part B. The study of N-tosylhydrazones as diazo precursor was commenced ... -
Panchromatic study of star clusters: binaries, blue lurkers, blue stragglers and membership
Binary systems can evolve into immensely different exotic systems such as blue straggle stars (BSSs), yellow straggler stars, cataclysmic variables, type Ia supernovae depending on their initial mass, the orbital ... -
Panoramic View of RNA Binding Proteins (RBPs) in Glioblastoma : IMP3, an RBP, is Essential for Glioma Stem-like Cell Maintenance
Gliomas are primary brain tumors in adults that are believed to originate from different types of glial cells. Central nervous system gliomas pose particularly difficult problems because of their tendency towards malignancy, ... -
Paper microfluidic tools to improve the sensitivity and dynamic range of point-of-care immunoassays
Over the past decade, developing affordable home-based tests to diagnose infectious diseases has become a pressing need. The lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) is the most successfully commercialized point-of-care immunoassay. ... -
Paper-Based Point-of-Care Diagnostic Tools: Electrokinetic Nucleic Acid Extraction and Saliva-Based Glucose Detection for Diabetes Monitoring
Currently, we face a global challenge posed by the dual burden of chronic diseases such as diabetes and infectious diseases such as tuberculosis (TB). Low-and middle-income countries are disproportionately overburdened by ... -
Parallel Computing Techniques for High Speed Power System Solutions
Modern power systems are enormously large and complex entities. Planning, maintaining and operating such a system would be cumbersome if it were not for the wide assortment of analytical methods available to assist the ... -
Parallel methods to solve large-scale stochastic linear and nonlinear mechanics problems in a domain decomposition framework
Parallel methods to solve large-scale stochastic linear and nonlinear mechanics problems in a domain decomposition framework Mechanics problems with inherent uncertainties are mathematically modeled using stochastic partial ... -
Parallel Smoothers for Multigrid Method in Heterogeneous CPU-GPU Environment
Real-world applications require the solution of large a sparse system of algebraic equations that arise from the discretization of partial di erential equations with the help of supercomputers. Modern supercomputers are ... -
A Parallelizing Compiler for Fortran
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-03-09)With the advent of Distributed Memory Machines (DMMs) numerous work have been undertaken to ease the work of a programmer these systems. Data parallel languages like Fortran D, Vienna Fortran, High Performance Fortran and ... -
Parameter Estimation to Determine the Groundwater Flow and Seawater Intrusion in a Coastal Aquifer of Karnataka, India
Seawater Intrusion (SWI) into the fresh groundwater aquifers is one of the major hydrological problems in coastal regions. This global issue is aggravated by increasing demands for fresh groundwater due to on-going ... -
Parameterized Complexity of Maximum Edge Coloring in Graphs
(2018-03-09)The classical graph edge coloring problem deals in coloring the edges of a given graph with minimum number of colors such that no two adjacent edges in the graph, get the same color in the proposed coloring. In the following ... -
Parametric Analysis Of A Free Piston Stirling Engine For Spacecraft Power Applications With A Radioisotope Heat Source
(2014-07-11)Stirling engines are promising candidates for applications where air breathing engines cannot be used. Self contained engines capable of operating independently of the environment are required to convert thermal energy ... -
Parametric Manipulation in 2D Material based NEMS Resonators
In this this thesis, I have studied dynamics of the two-dimensional (2D) material based NEMS resonators with resonant frequency ranging typically from 10 MHz to 100 MHz. The experiment involved fabrication of the ... -
Parietal and prefrontal control of distinct components of attention
In this thesis, we investigate behavioural mechanisms and neural substrates of distinct components of endogenous spatial attention. Endogenous attention facilitates neural processing of the selected stimulus through one ... -
