Methods on Probabilistic Structural Vibration using Stochastic Finite Element Framework
(2018-02-07)Analysis of vibration of systems with uncertainty in material properties under the influence of a random forcing function is an active area of research. Especially the characterization based on mode shapes and frequencies ... -
Methyl Methacrylate Styrene
Polymeric peroxides are mainly a class of 1:1 copolymers of vinyl monomers and oxygen. The study of the formation of these polymers has been instrumental in explaining the inhibitory role of oxygen in vinyl polymerization. ... -
Methylammonium Lead Iodide thin lms grown by Pulsed Laser Deposition for Photodetector Applications
This thesis studies the fabrication and characterization of Methylammonium Lead Iodide perovskite thin films for photodetector applications. Unlike, any other perovskite halide material, Methylammonium Lead Iodide perovskite ... -
MHD Waves Driven by Small-scale Motion and Implications for the Earth's Core
(2018-05-22)Rotating convection in the Earth's core produces columnar vortices of radius ~10 km or less near the inner core boundary. Small-scale motions in the core can travel as Alfvén waves in the face of Ohmic diffusion, provided ... -
Micro-Blast Waves
(2014-09-02)The near field blast–wave propagation dynamics has been a subject of intense research in recent past. Since experiments on a large scale are difficult to carry out, focus has been directed towards recreating these blast ... -
Micro-carriers mediated bacteriophage delivery for targeting intracellular Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection and TB prevention
Tuberculosis (TB) is a debilitating infectious disease that afflicts 10 million people every year. Treatment is particularly challenging due to prolonged treatment duration (4-6 months) consisting of an oral regimen of 4 ... -
Micro-Mechanisms Associated with Friction Stir Welding of Aluminum with Titanium
(2018-01-10)Out of the known aerospace metal and alloys, Aluminium (Al) and Titanium (Ti) are important due to their unique combination of properties, such as strength, ductility and corrosion resistance etc. For these reasons, welding ... -
Micro-Newton Force Measurement and Actuation : Applied to Genetic Model Organisms
(2018-07-10)Mechanical forces have been observed to affect various aspects of life, for example, cell differentiation, cell migration, locomotion and behavior of multicellular organisms etc. Such forces are generated either by external ... -
Micro-PIV Study Of Apparent Slip Of Water On Hydrophobic Surfaces
(2010-07-01)The condition of no relative velocity of fluid past solid is termed as ‘no-slip boundary condition’. This condition is a general observation in fluid mechanics. However, several research groups have recently reported slip ... -
A micro-robotic system with integrated force sensing capability for manipulation of magentic particles in three dimensions
Micro-robotic systems are used in various fields of science and technology for the manipulation of objects of size less than a millimeter. Magnetic tweezers can be considered as micro-robotic systems due to their ability ... -
Micro-scale Fracture Testing of Graded (Pt,Ni)Al Bond Coats
(2018-04-16)PtNiAl bond coats are diffusion aluminide coatings deposited on superalloy based turbine blades for oxidation resistance and improved adhesion between the substrate and the YSZ thermal barrier coating on top. They are ... -
Micro-spectroscopic studies on Mycobacteria & Cancer cells
Evasion of the immune system is a key hallmark of cancer progression. Developing strategies that diagnose early the immune-cancer synapse may lead to long term cures from these aggressive cancers. We aimed to develop optical ... -
Microbial emulsification and metabolism of organophosphorous pesticides.
The ever-increasing usage of pesticides during the last three decades has caused widespread environmental contamination. For this reason, the more persistent organochlorine pesticides have been replaced by less persistent ... -
Microbially-induced Mineral Flocculation and Flotation with Proteins and Polysaccharides Isolated from Paenibacillus
The most significant environmental issue that has arisen in the mining industries over the last decade is that of acid mine drainage (AMD) from tailing dumps and waste mined rock piles. AMD is caused by the oxidation of ... -

The thesis entitled "Microbiological transformations of terpenes and steroids" is divided into three main chapters. Chapter I. Microbiological transformations of monoterpenes. This chapter commences with a review of the ... -
Microbiological transformations of terpenes and steroids
The thesis entitled “Microbiological Transformations of Terpenes and Steroids” is divided into three chapters. Chapter I — Microbiological Transformations of Monoterpenes This chapter opens by emphasizing microbiology as ... -
Microengineered Force Sensors and Haptic Feedback System for Catheter Contact Force
Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) pursues the highest attention in various medical procedures globally because of the reduced complicated process compared with traditional surgery, short postprocedural convalescence, and ...
