Role Of Boron On The Evolution Of Microstructure And Texture In Ti-6AL-4V-0.1B Alloy
(2013-06-04)Titanium and its alloys constitute an important class of materials for aerospace, biomedical, and chemical industries, primarily due to their high specific strength and fracture toughness with good corrosion resistance. ... -
Role of buoyancy in driving upper ocean mixing across timescales
This thesis explores the response of the upper ocean to surface buoyancy fluxes on different timescales using theory, numerical simulations and observation-based datasets. First, we investigate the role of evaporation in ... -
Role of calcium sensors in differential alignment of synaptic nanomachinery during neurotransmission
Some of the brain's most remarkable feats such as learning and memory, are thought to emerge from elementary properties of chemical synapses. The distinctive feature of these synapses is that the action potential in the ... -
Role of CG9650 in Neuronal Development And Function of Drosophila Melanogaster
(2017-10-05)The nervous system is the most complex system in an organism. Functioning of the nervous system requires proper formation of neural cells, as well as accurate connectivity and signaling among them. While the major events ... -
Role of Channel State Information in Adaptation in Current and Next Generation Wireless Systems
(2017-11-24)Motivated by the increasing demand for higher data rates, coverage, and spectral efficiency, current and next generation wireless systems adapt transmission parameters and even who is being transmitted to, based on the ... -
Role of Chemokine Receptor, CXCR4 Mediated Signaling in Cellular Senescence
(2017-10-05)Cellular senescence has been proposed to be equivalent to organismal aging and is one of the outcomes of the cell fate decision process in response to DNA damage that occurs in cells. When a cell encounters DNA damage, the ... -
Role of Composition, Structure and Physico-Chemical Environment on Stabilisation of Kuttanad Soil
(2018-04-12)Soft soil deposits of coastal regions and lowland areas pose many geotechnical problems but it is indispensable to utilize these grounds to meet the growing demand for infrastructure with ever increasing urbanization and ... -
Role of conserved features of initiator tRNA and ribosome heterogeneity in translation initiation in Escherichia coli
Translation is one of the fundamental and core cellular processes catalysed by a ribonucleoprotein complex called ribosome. The process involves four major steps: initiation, elongation, termination and recycling. Initiation ... -
Role of Crosslinks and Fiber Reinforcement in Hydrogel Mechanics
Hydrogels are soft materials that exhibit nonlinear mechanical behavior under large deformations but can fail catastrophically, limiting their applications. Developing tough, biocompatible hydrogels with high strength and ... -
The Role of Cytoskeletal Morphology in the Nanoorganization of Synapse
(2018-01-10)Synapse is the fundamental unit of synaptic transmission. Learning, memory and neurodegenerative diseases of the brain are attributed to the maintenance and alteration in synaptic connections. The efficiency for synaptic ... -
Role of DNA Methylation in Glioblastoma Development
(2018-04-11)Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and malignant of the glial tumors. These tumors may develop from lower-grade astrocytomas (diffuse astrocytoma; grade II or anaplastic astrocytoma; grade III) through a progressive ... -
The Role of DNA Structural Features of Eukaryotic Promoter Sequences in Transcription Regulation
(2018-09-04)Understanding the molecular structure of DNA was considered as greatest achievement in modern biology. It helped in understanding fundamental cellular processes such as replication of DNA, nature of the ... -
Role of equatorial convection and moisture in the structure and propagation of Boreal Summer Intraseasonal Oscillations
Boreal Summer Intraseasonal Oscillation (BSISO) is the dominant mode of tropical variability during Boreal summers. BSISO is manifested by northward propagation of the Maximum Cloud Zone (MCZ) from the warm equatorial ... -
Role of Escherichia coli UvrD helicase in resolving G-quadruplex DNA structures
G-quadruplex (G4) secondary structures have been implicated in various biological processes, including gene expression, DNA replication and telomere maintenance. However, unresolved G4 structures impede replication ... -
