Sputter Deposited Thin Film Cathodes from Powder Target for Micro Battery Applications
(2018-07-16)All solid state Li-ion batteries (thin film micro batteries) have become inevitable for miniaturized devices and sensors as power sources. Fabrication of electrode materials for batteries in thin film form has been carried ... -
Sputter Deposited ZrC and NbC Thin Films – Studies on Microstructure, Texture and Hardness
(2018-08-29)Transition metal carbides have great industrial importance with a wide area of applications. Unlike many ceramic materials which can be produced from raw materials found in nature, the refractory carbides generally do not ... -
SRF regulates the generation of neuroprotective astrocytes in the brain
In response to injuries, infections or in neurodegenerative disorders, astrocytes get activated to become reactive. This phenomenon is called astrogliosis and is marked by a spectrum of changes which encompasses structural, ... -
Stabilisation Of Black Cotton Soil By Lime Piles
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-07-07)Modification of black cotton soils by chemical admixtures is a common method for stabilizing the swell-shrink tendency of expansive soils. Advantages of chemical stabilization are that they reduce the swell-shrink tendency ... -
Stabilised Rammed Earth For Walls : Materials, Compressive Strength And Elastic Properties
(2011-01-10)Rammed earth is a technique of forming in-situ structural wall elements using rigid formwork. Advantages of rammed earth walls include flexibility in plan form, scope for adjusting strength and wall thickness, variety of ... -
Stability Numbers For Slopes With Associated And Non-Associated Flow Rule And Shake Table Liquefaction Studies
(2007-10-23)Based upon the upper bound limit analysis, the stability numbers have been developed for a two-layered soil slope both for an associated flow rule material and for a homogeneous slope with non-associated flow rule material. ... -
Stability of Accretion Flows And Radiative-Hydrodynamics Around Rotating Black Holes
(2013-06-24)In the case of cold accretion disk, coupling between charge neutral gas and magnetic field is too weak such that the magneto-rotational instability will be less effective or even stop working. In such a situation it is of ... -
Stability Of Double-Diffusive Finger Convection In A Non-Linear Time Varying Background State
(2010-09-06)Convection set up in a fluid due to the presence of two components of differing diffusivities is known as double diffusive convection. Double diffusive convection is observed in nature, in oceans, in the formation of certain ... -
Stability of wall-bounded compressible shear flows
In this work, the linear stability of compressible shear flows in channels and pipes are studied. A steady fully-developed laminar flow of an ideal gas, driven in a channel and a pipe by a constant body acceleration, is ... -
Stability Preserving Bisection Algorithms in Reaction-Diffusion Complex Networks
Reaction-Diffusion complex networks are ubiquitous in many pragmatic models of network of interacting nodes with individual dynamics, such as social interactions, neuronal functions, transportation models, ecological ... -
Stabilization Schemes for Convection Dominated Scalar Problems with Different Time Discretizations in Time dependent Domains
(2018-05-21)Problems governed by partial differential equations (PDEs) in deformable domains, t Rd; d = 2; 3; are of fundamental importance in science and engineering. They are of particular relevance in the design of many engineering ... -
Stabilized finite element schemes for computations of viscoelastic free-surface and two-phase flows
Viscoelastic flows can be found in a wide range of industrial and commercial applications such as enhanced oil recovery, pesticide deposition, medicinal/pharmaceutical sprays, drug delivery, injection molding, polymer ... -
Stable Galerkin Finite Element Formulation for the Simulation of Electromagnetic Flowmeter
(2018-02-07)Electromagnetic flow meters are simple, rugged, non-invasive flow measuring instruments, which are extensively employed in many applications. In particular, they are ideally suited for the flow rate measurement of liquid ... -
Stable isotope and biogeochemical study of arsenic contamination in shallow groundwater at seasonal time intervals from West Bengal (Nadia district)
Seasonal monitoring of groundwater is essential to ascertain safe water for the population and ecosystem for drinking, irrigation, domestic purposes and to keep track of groundwater quality with natural (climate change ... -
Stable Isotope and Geochemical Approaches for Hydrological Characterization and Estimation of Seasonal Groundwater Inputs in the Humid to Semi-Arid Reach of the Kabini River, South India
In tropical catchments, like the Kabini region of South India, understanding the intricate contributions of baseflow is essential for sustainable water management and ecosystem preservation. Baseflow, which is predominantly ... -
Stable isotope geochemistry of carbonatites: New insights into the petrogenesis and evolution
Carbonatites are carbonate-rich magmatic rocks that are commonly thought of having a mantle origin and are thus, of great interest to geologist for understanding the chemical evolution of the upper mantle. This thesis ... -
Stable Isotopic Composition of Rice Grain Organic Matter as an Archive of Monsoonal Climate
(2018-08-30)Rice grows in saturated soil water condition and its requirement for water is highest amongst other cereal crops. In India, the southwest monsoon wind regime brings rainfall that provides a favourable environment for rice ... -
