Small Heat Shock Proteins from Bacteria and a Bacteriophage
Proteins can unfold during heat and other types of stress and tend to aggregate with subsequent loss of function. This event is prevented by small Heat Shock Proteins (sHSPs) acting as molecular chaperones. sHSPs do not ... -
Small Heat Shock Proteins from Oryza Sativa and Salmonella Enterica
(2018-05-09)Small heat shock proteins (sHSPs) are a ubiquitous family of molecular chaperones that play a vital role in maintaining protein homeostasis in cells. They are the first line of defence against the detrimental effects of ... -
Small Signal Stability Analysis of a Power System with a Grid Connected Wind Powered Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG)
(2018-07-18)Small signal oscillation has been always a major concern in the operation of power systems. In a generator, the electromechanical coupling between the rotor and the rest of the system causes it to behave in a manner similar ... -
Small-amplitude Oscillations in Hypersonic Double-cone Flow
Unsteady compressible flows typically pose problems with rich dynamics. The broad concern of this thesis is the shock wave unsteadiness that arises in external high-speed flow over a double-cone body. This unsteadiness is ... -
Smart textiles with Tuneable Architectures for Multifunctional Applications
Innovations in electronics and the rapid developments in communication systems have been unprecedented and made life easier. One such advancement is wireless electronics, where gadgets operate in gigahertz frequencies – ... -
A Smooth Finite Element Method Via Triangular B-Splines
(2013-07-25)A triangular B-spline (DMS-spline)-based finite element method (TBS-FEM) is proposed along with possible enrichment through discontinuous Galerkin, continuous-discontinuous Galerkin finite element (CDGFE) and stabilization ... -
Smooth Finite Element Methods with Polynomial Reproducing Shape Functions
(2018-04-03)A couple of discretization schemes, based on an FE-like tessellation of the domain and polynomial reproducing, globally smooth shape functions, are considered and numerically explored to a limited extent. The first one ... -
Social Capital And Its Impact On New Venture Performance
(2011-10-10)Entrepreneurship is the process of transforming an idea into a tangible product or service that can be traded. High-growth entrepreneurial firms contribute a disproportionate share of all new jobs created by new firms. ... -
Social Organisation And Cooperation In Genetically Mixed Colonies Of The Primitively Eusocial Wasp, Ropalidia Marginata
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-08-05)Altruism in its extreme form is seen in social insects where most individuals give up their own reproduction and work to rear the offspring of their queen. The origin and evolution of such sterile worker castes remains a ... -
Soft Materials Derived From Bile Acid Analogues
(2009-05-06)Chapter 1. Introduction This chapter is an overview on the literature of self-association of small organic molecules. The chapter is presented in four parts. First, an introduction to aggregation of small molecules is ... -
Soft Matter : Routes To Rheochaos, Anomalous Diffusion And Mesh Phases
(2008-10-06)Soft condensed matter (SCM) systems are ubiquitous in nature. SCM systems contain mesoscopic structures in the size range 10 nm to 1 am that are held together by weak entropic forces. These materials are therefore easily ... -
Soft Matter Under Electric Field And Shear
(2010-06-09)‘Soft condensed matter’ is a newly-emerged sub-discipline of physics concerned with the study of systems that are mechanically soft such as colloids, emulsions, surfactants, polymers, liquid crystals, granular media and ... -
Soft Switched Multi-Phase Tapped-Boost Converter And Its Control
(2009-08-04)Boost dc-to-dc converters have very good source interface properties. The input inductor makes the source current smooth and hence these converters provide very good EMI performance. On account of this good property, the ... -
Soft Switched Multilevel Unidirectional High Frequency Link DC to AC Converter for Medium Voltage Grid Integration of Solar Photovoltaics
Grounding the frame of photovoltaic (PV) panel is a necessity for the safety of humans. This leads to the formation of large capacitance between PV cells and ground. Hence, to reduce leakage current due to parasitic ... -
Soft X-ray Multilayers As Polarizing Elements : Fabrication, And Studies Of Surfaces And Interfaces
(2010-03-09)The exploitation of the soft x-ray/extreme ultra-violet (EUV) region of the electromagnetic spectrum is possible mainly due to the development of multilayer (ML) mirrors. This region of the electromagnetic spectrum offers ... -

SOI Based Integrated-Optic Microring Resonators for Biomedical Sensing Applications
(2018-02-23)Integrated Silicon Photonics has emerged as a powerful platform in the last two decades amongst high-bandwidth technologies, particularly since the adop- tion of CMOS compatible silicon-on-insulator(SOI) substrates. Microring ... -
Soil microorganisms and biogeochemical cycles in a grazing ecosystem: interactions between producers, consumers, and decomposers
Microorganisms are the unseen majority that determines ecosystem processes, they perform biogeochemical functions that translate into essential services, and regulate global climate. In grazing ecosystems, which represent ... -
Soil Moisture Modelling, Retrieval From Microwave Remote Sensing And Assimilation In A Tropical Watershed
(2016-03-01)The knowledge of soil moisture is of pronounced importance in various applications e.g. flood control, agricultural production and effective water resources management. These applications require the knowledge of spatial ...
