Ultrastrong coupling in a cavity-electromechanical device
Cavity optomechanics is a field that explores the interaction between light and motion of matter via radiation pressure force. Such systems mainly consist of an optical/microwave cavity coupled to a mechanical resonator. ... -
Ultrastructural and Molecular Analyses of the Unique Features of Cell Division in Mycobacterium Tuberculosis and Mycobacterium Smegmatis
(2018-04-13)The Mycobacterium genus contains major human pathogens, like Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium leprae, which are the causative agents of Tuberculosis and Leprosy, respectively. They have evolved as successful ... -
Ultrawideband and wide-angle scan antenna element and small active phased arrays
Wideband, wide-scan active phased arrays (APA) are widely used for multi-function radars, communication and electronic warfare. Although considerable research is available on the design and analysis of such antenna elements ... -
Uncertainty Analysis of Microwave Based Rainfall Estimates over a River Basin Using TRMM Orbital Data Products
(2018-01-11)Error characteristics associated with satellite-derived precipitation products are important for atmospheric and hydrological model data assimilation, forecasting, and climate diagnostic applications. This information also ... -
Uncertainty Based Damage Identification and Prediction of Long-Time Deformation in Concrete Structures
(2018-02-20)Uncertainties are present in the inverse analysis of damage identification with respect to the given measurements, mainly the modelling uncertainties and the measurement uncertainties. Modelling uncertainties occur due to ... -
Uncertainty modeling and analysis of aerospace structures
Aerospace structures are different from other structures due to the difference in the required properties for an aerospace application. The primary motivation of this kind of structure lies in its lightweight nature, ... -
Uncertainty Modeling For River Water Quality Control
(2010-08-30)Waste Load Allocation (WLA) in rivers refers to the determination of required pollutant fractional removal levels at a set of point sources of pollution to ensure that water quality standards are maintained throughout the ... -
Uncertainty Quantification in Flow and Flow Induced Structural Response
(2018-07-23)Response of flexible structures — such as cable-supported bridges and aircraft wings — is associated with a number of uncertainties in structural and flow parameters. This thesis is aimed at efficient uncertainty quantification ... -
Uncovering of a novel non-taxane anticancer secondary metabolite from Taxol-producing endophytic fungus: Optimization of culture parameters and whole-genome sequence analysis for improved taxane production biosynthesis.
Cancer-related mortalities and morbidities have proven to be a great health burden for human society with immense economic implications. With uncontrolled proliferation of cells as the fundamental principle underlying its ... -
Uncovering the Role of Mitochondrial Co-chaperones and Artificial Antioxidants in Cellular Redox Homeostasis
(2018-02-14)The role of mitochondria is multidimensional and ranges in vast areas, including apoptosis, cellular response towards stress, metabolism, which is regulated by a plethora of proteins, acting together to maintain cellular ... -
Uncovering the Role of Mitochondrial Iron-sulfur (Fe-S) Cluster Biogenesis in Human Health and Disease
(2018-09-04)Mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated for a wide range of human diseases. One of the major biosynthetic processes in human mitochondria is the biogenesis of Iron-Sulfur (Fe-S) clusters which primarily involves in ... -
Uncovering the role of NFS1 in Fe-S cluster biogenesis and in the development of Infantile mitochondrial complex II/III deficiency (IMC23D) disease progression and 2. Screening single domain antibody (VHH) against a membrane transporter
The mitochondrion is a double membrane-bound organelle found in all eukaryotic organisms. Mitochondria are endosymbiotic, autogenous organelles referred to as “Powerhouse” of cells due to their ability to synthesize ATP ... -
Understanding And Supporting Conceptual Design Synthesis Of Multiple State Mechanical Devices
(2015-08-07)Conceptual design synthesis is part of the conceptual phase of the design process, which focuses on creating alternative, candidate solutions. Conceptual design phase has the greatest influence on the cost and characteristics ... -
Understanding Catchment Scale Processes: Hydrological Modelling and Information-Theoretic Approaches
Catchments are complex environmental systems, and they serve as the fundamental units for hydrological classification. They are self-organizing systems whose form, drainage network, ground and channel slopes, channel ... -
Understanding cholesterol homeostasis and its impact on GPCR signalling in aging
Full text embargo One year up to July 2024 Aging is defined as the time-related deterioration of physiological functions necessary for survival of organisms. Despite significant progress in the extension of human lifespan ... -
Understanding Conformal Field Theory in Mellin Space
In the last decade, there has been tremendous progress in understanding conformal eld theories in more than two space-time dimensions. The numerical bootstrap framework has been pushed to a very advanced level of ... -
Understanding Context In Designing
(2009-05-25)Everything around us that is not a simple untouched piece of nature has been designed by someone. Human society has found a great refuge in these designed objects or the artefacts, and thus has adapted vociferously to their ... -
Understanding deformation mechanisms in the Hall-Petch breakdown regime of Ni-W alloys
The substantially higher strengths of nanocrystalline metals has been to attributed to the well-known Hall-Petch relationship σ= σ_o+k_HP d^(-1/2) where 𝜎 is the yield stress, 𝜎𝑜 is the lattice friction stress, 𝑑 is ... -
Understanding design communication in internet-enabled remote synchronous collaborative design in the early stages of design
