Monitoring and Control of Intermittent Water Distribution Network
Millions of people in low and middle-income countries worldwide receive water only for a small fraction of the time in a day through piped networks. Even though the percentage of the world’s population with access to piped ... -
Monitoring program dynamics : Evaluation of software profiler effectiveness
Program monitoring tools are often used to verify program correctness, study program performance, and identify performance bottlenecks. Program profilers are a class of program monitoring tools which aid in tuning the ... -
Monodisperse Gold Nanoparticles : Synthesis, Self-Assembly and Fabrication of Floating Gate Memory Devices
(2018-04-23)The emergence of novel electronic, optical and magnetic properties in ordered two-dimensional (2D) nanoparticle ensembles, due to collective dipolar interactions of surface plasmons or excitons or magnetic moments have ... -
Monolayer MoS2 and plasmonic heterostructure for molecular sensor
In recent years, artificially engineered materials, known as meta structures, have demonstrated tuneable optoelectronic properties, making meta-coupled devices highly advantageous for a wide range of technological applications. ... -
Monolayer MoS2-based heterostructure devices on Silicon and Flexible Substrates
This work presents a comprehensive study of MoS2-based field-effect transistors (FETs), investigating three key aspects: hysteresis effects, asymmetric I-V characteristics, and piezoelectric properties. Through an exploration ... -
A Monolithic Finite Element Formulation for Magnetohydrodynamics Involving a Compressible Fluid
This work develops a new monolithic finite-element-based strategy for Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) involving a compressible fluid based on a continuous velocity-pressure formulation. The entire formula- tion is within a ... -
The monopole-dimer model and eccentricities for Cartesian product of graphs
This thesis comprises two main parts. The details of the two parts are as follows: The first part of the thesis deals with the monopole-dimer model. The dimer (resp. monomer-dimer) model deals with weighted enumeration of ... -
Monte Carlo Simulation Based Response Estimation and Model Updating in Nonlinear Random Vibrations
(2018-02-22)The study of randomly excited nonlinear dynamical systems forms the focus of this thesis. We discuss two classes of problems: first, the characterization of nonlinear random response of the system before it comes into ... -
Monte Carlo simulations of Electric Double Layer Capacitors with aqueous electrolytes
Electric double layer capacitors (EDLCs) also known as supercapacitors are a category of energy storage devices that are known for their remarkable power delivery (upto 1000KW/kg). The energy storage is through physical ... -

The work reported in this thesis is in the area of computational structural reliability modelling. The primary focus of the study is on the estimation of structural reliability using Monte Carlo simulations with sampling ... -
Monte Carlo Simulations with Variance Reduction for Structural Reliability Modeling, Updating and Testing
(2018-04-24)Monte Carlo simulation techniques have emerged as widely accepted computing tools in tackling many problems in modern structural mechanics. Apart from developments in computational hardware, which have undoubtedly made ... -
Moonlighting Functions of the Rv0805 Phosphodiesterase from Mycobacterium Tuberculosis
(2018-04-18)All organisms must sense and respond to their environment in order to survive. The processes that allow a living cell to sense changes in its environment, and respond appropriately are collectively referred to as ‘signal ... -
Morphological Perspectives of Sand Liquefaction and its Mitigation
Liquefaction of soils under seismic conditions has profound implications for infrastructure resilience in earthquake-prone regions. Saturated loose cohesionless granular soils have the tendency to readily lose grain contacts ... -
Morphology and topology of cosmological fields during the Epoch of Reionization
In this thesis we have introduced a real space morphological tool, Contour Minkowski tensor (CMT) to analyse the 21cm brightness temperature field from EoR. We showed that the size and shape information of structures ... -
Morpological Architecturing of Electroactive Materials in Organic Electronics
