Biofilm Reactors for Greywater Treatment
Greywater (GW) is the fraction of wastewater discharged in houses that has not been contaminated with faeces. The average volumes of greywater generated in the households of Bengaluru varies between 40-70 litres/cap/day ... -
Bioinspiration for battling bacteria: Nature inspired high aspect ratio nanostructures for new age antibacterial surfaces
Bacterial colonization and biofilm formation on abiotic surfaces effectuate corrosion, fermentation, and infection resulting in tremendous economic and human losses each year. Aggravating the situation, new multi-drug ... -
Bioremediation of Chromium : Mechanisms and Biosensing Applications
(2018-06-05)Water pollution, especially caused due to the indiscriminate release of heavy metals as a result of anthropogenic activities is a major concern worldwide. Chromium, a heavy metal, regardless of its commercial importance ... -
Bioremediation of Lead from Aqueous Solutions using Pseudomonas Species - Mechanisms & Biosensor Applications
Industrialization, urbanization and technological developments have improved the standard of living for humans on the one hand, but they also have resulted in the generation of wastes containing toxic heavy metals that are ... -
Bioremediation of Mechanically and Biologically Treated Waste Of Bangalore City: An Experimental and Numerical Study
Remediation of the existing MSW dumpsites has received considerable attention these days and there is an urgent need to address this issue in order to maintain the over hygiene of the urban environment. An approach consisting ... -
Bioremediation of Zinc using Pseudomonas Species - Mechanistic Studies and Biosensor Applications
(2018-03-01)The rivers, lakes and seas are the major water sources for the animal and plant kingdom in this earth. In recent times, the usage and wastage of water have been increasing due to the uncontrolled population growth. In ... -
Blade Flutter in a Linear Cascade: Unsteady Loads and Flow Features in Subsonic and Transonic Flows
Vibration related issues like flutter can significantly limit the performance of aircraft engines and cause unwarranted cost and time overruns. The increased demand for more powerful yet compact engines has resulted in the ... -
Blast Effects on Mild Steel Plates and Blast Mitigation using Fluid-filled Polymer Foam

Blast Loading on Plain and Perforated Tubes with High Explosives
According to the assessments of the United Nations, there are more than 100 million mines lying buried in various conflict zones of many countries in the world. As per their assessment, many thousand casualties happen ... -
Blast Mitigation Strategies for Marine Sandwich Structures
Blast mitigation is being researched from the time of world war II. There were full field blast tests and analytical studies on the performance of monolithic structures to mitigate blast load. Sandwich structures were also ... -
Breakout Noise From The Coupled Acoustic-Structural HVAC Systems
(2010-07-19)Noise control in the heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems is one of the critical design parameters in measuring the occupant comfort. The noise generated by air-handling units propagates through the ... -
Breakup Behaviour Of Liquid Sheets Discharging From Gas Centered Swirl Coaxial Atomizers
(2011-04-06)This thesis aims at studying the breakup of swirling liquid sheets discharging from the outer orifice of gas centered swirl coaxial atomizers. Such atomizers are considered as propellant injection systems for semi-cryogenic ... -
Bubble and conical forms of vortex breakdown in swirling jets
The present study focusses on vortex breakdown (VB), which occurs in axially convected swirling flows and is characterized by the development of an internal stagnation point and regions of reverse flow. VB has been ... -
Bubble Solid Interaction
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-03-09)The interaction of a bubble with solid surfaces, hydrophobic and hydrophilic, was investigated. When a bubble approaches towards a solid surface, a thin liquid film forms between them. The liquid in the film drains until ... -
