Computing Contour Tress for 2D Piecewise Polynomial Functions
Contour trees are extensively used in scalar field analysis. The contour tree is a data structure that tracks the evolution of level set topology in a scalar field. Scalar fields are typically available as samples at ... -
Concentration Gradient Driven Natural Convection in Soluble Lead Redox Flow Batteries
Low cost and long cycle-life energy storage systems are needed to harness renewable sources of energy at large scale. Among the options available, redox ow batteries (RFB) offer the maximum potential. The vanadium based ... -
Conceptualisation, Development and Validation of Energy Internet for a Transitioning Electricity System
Globally, the national electricity systems are in the midst of aggressive transitions. A shift from large-scale conventional fossil-fuel based power generation systems to large number of small-scale distributed renewable ... -
Conceptualization And Measurement Of Organizational Patent Externalization Potential In R&D : Insights For Organization Design And Practice
(2011-03-01)Organizations have realized that they need to develop and strategically utilize their patent portfolios in order to maintain sustainable competitive advantage. This requires a change in the organization design and practice. ... -
Conceptualization and Validation of Interoperability in Blockchain Enabled Interconnected Smart Microgrids
Power systems are undergoing rapid transitions to incorporate renewable sources of generation and to combat climate change. It is expected that the next stage of transitions will lead to a shift from large-scale, centralized ... -
Concrete Fracture And Size Effect - Experimental And Numerical Studies
(2010-10-14)Most materials including concrete have pre-existing flaws or defects. The fracture energy of concrete is a basic material property needed to understand fracture initiation and propagation in concrete. Whether fracture ... -
Concurrency Analysis and Mining Techniques for APIs
(2018-06-13)Software components expose Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) as a means to access their functionality, and facilitate reuse. Developers use APIs supplied by programming languages to access the core data structures ... -
Concurrency control algorithms for database systems exploiting the semantics of read-only transactions.
This thesis proposes new locking-based concurrency control algorithms for both centralized and distributed databases. The concurrency control algorithms proposed exploit the semantics of read-only transactions to improve ... -
Condensation Heat Transfer Of R-134A On Micro-Finned Tubes : An Experimental Study
(2010-06-04)Eco-friendly non-CFC refrigerants were introduced in the Air Conditioning and Refrigeration industry during the last few years to reduce damage to the stratospheric ozone layer. The HFC refrigerant R-134a, which has zero ... -
Condition-dependent signalling and mating behaviour in the tree cricket, Oecanthus henryi
Male reproductive success in systems exhibiting sexually selected traits can be driven by male mating effort in sexual signals and in the production of nuptial gifts. Male mating effort can be determined by various biotic ... -
Conductance Fluctuations in High-mobility Graphene Field Effect Transistors
In the past decade, a major fraction of the research carried out in condensed matter physics has been dedicated to address the unique physical properties of single layer graphene (SLG). Different properties of Dirac ... -
Confinement, Coarsening And Nonequilibrium Fluctuations In Glassy And Yielding Systems
(2016-02-17)One of the most important and interesting unsolved problems of science is the nature of glassy dynamics and the glass transition. It is quite an old problem, and starting from the early20th century there have been many ... -
Conflation Of CFD And Building Thermal Simulation To Estimate Indian Thermal Comfort Level
(2013-06-21)In the residential and commercial buildings, most of the energy is used to provide the thermal comfort environment to the occupants. The recent research towards Green Buildings is focusing on reduction of energy consumption ... -
Conflict-Tolerant Features
(2010-12-07)Large, software intensive systems are typically developed using a feature oriented development paradigm in which feature specifications are derived from domain requirements and features are implemented to satisfy such ... -
Conformal Active Sheets
(2017-12-16)Stretchable Electronics is an emerging class of electronics that allow electronics to be bent, conform, ex and stretch while still retaining its full functionality. Other than bending, existing and conforming, adding ... -
Conformal Bootstrap : Old and New
(2018-05-25)Conformal Field Theories (CFT) are Quantum Field Theories characterized by enhanced (conformal) symmetries. They are interesting to Theoretical Physicists because they occur at critical points in phase transitions of various ... -
