Kalman Filter Estimation Of Ionospheric TEC And Differential Instrumental Biases Over Low Latitude Using Dual Frequency GPS Observations
(2009-03-13)The low latitude tropical ionosphere has been investigated by various researchers using Global Positioning System (GPS). Presently for many civil aviation applications, the ionospheric modeling of the tropical region has ... -
The keeper of Chronicles - Investigating calcium carbonate archives using clumped thermometry
Calcium carbonates (CaCO3) are the most abundant mineral archive for reconstructing past climate owing to their tendency to register the environmental condition during their formation. From biogenically mediated carbonates ... -
Kernel Methods Fast Algorithms and real life applications
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-02-08)Support Vector Machines (SVM) have recently gained prominence in the field of machine learning and pattern classification (Vapnik, 1995, Herbrich, 2002, Scholkopf and Smola, 2002). Classification is achieved by finding a ... -
Kernel-Based Image Filtering: Fast Algorithms and Applications
Image filtering is a fundamental preprocessing task in computer vision and image processing. Various linear and nonlinear filters are routinely used for enhancement, upsampling, sharpening, reconstruction, etc. The focus ... -
Key Distribution In Wireless Sensor Networks
(2010-06-09)In the last few years, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have become a very actively researched area. The impetus for this spurt of interest were developments in wireless technologies and low-cost VLSI, that made it possible ... -
Kinematic And Dynamic Modeling Of Human Walking
(2014-08-07)Walking comes naturally to us and appears to be simple. However, this is not so and it is known that walking requires high level neural control and muscle coordination. There is no single, unifying theory of bipedal walking. ... -
Kinematic And Static Analysis Of Over-Constrained Mechanisms And Deployable Pantograph Masts
(2011-01-19)Foldable and deployable space structures refer to a broad category of pre-fabricated structures that can be transformed from a compact folded configuration to a predetermined expanded configuration. Such deployable structures ... -
Kinematic Design and Optimal Synthesis of Parallel Manipulators Using Monte Carlo Method
Parallel manipulators are widely used for a variety of tasks where increased accuracy and large load carrying capacities are required. In this work, we propose a Monte Carlo based method to represent and quantify the ... -
Kinematical conservation laws and applications
Study of wave motion is important in the field of fluid mechanics. The equations governing the motion of an inviscid compressible fluid form a hyperbolic system of quasi-linear equations and hence give rise to nonlinear ... -
Kinematics and Rheology of Complex Fluids: Active Suspensions and Dry Granular Materials
This work focuses on two problems in complex fluids, namely collective dynamics of suspensions of self-propelled particles and the rheology of dry granular materials. In both systems, interaction between the particles is ... -
Kinetic Flux Vector Splitting Method On Moving Grids (KFMG) For Unsteady Aerodynamics And Aeroelasticity
(Indian Institute of Science, 2007-06-07)Analysis of unsteady flows is a very challenging topic of research. A decade ago, potential flow equations were used to predict unsteady pressures on oscillating bodies. Recognising the fact that nonlinear aerodynamics is ... -
Kinetic investigations on gas solid reactions
Gas-Solid Reactions in Metallurgical Processes Gas-solid reactions are of current interest to process metallurgists because of their growing importance in industrial processes. In the present work, investigations were ... -
Kinetic Streamlined-Upwind Petrov Galerkin Methods for Hyperbolic Partial Differential Equations
(2017-09-20)In the last half a century, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has been established as an important complementary part and some times a significant alternative to Experimental and Theoretical Fluid Dynamics. Development ... -
Kinetic studies on the interactions of gold (iii) with nucleic acids
The effects of the univalent ions like Li?, Na?, K?, Cs?, etc. and their counter ions on the CD spectra of various DNA samples have been investigated in some detail. With the increase in the concentration of the univalent ... -
