Structure of Turbulent, Swirling Round Jets
The present study deals with the numerical analysis of the effect of the swirl in the self-preservation region of the turbulent round jet. However, a large number of literature exists for the analysis of near-exit regions—very ... -
Structure property correlation studies on Ca-modified Ba(Ti, Zr/Sn)O3 piezoceramics
In this thesis we have investigated the structure, property correlation of the lead-free piezoelectric ceramic of (Ba,Ca) (Ti,Zr/Sn)O3 system. A self-consistent set of experimental techniques such as X-ray powder diffraction, ... -
Structure, Microstructure and Magnetic Properties of Fe-Ga and R-Fe based Magnetostrictive Thin Films
(2018-02-27)Magnetostrictive materials belong to an important class of smart magnetic materials which have potential applications as ultrasonic transducers, sensors, actuators, delay lines, energy harvesting devices etc. Although, ... -
Structure-Property Correlation in Additively Manufactured High-Temperature Materials: Insights from Nickel-Based Superalloy IN718 & Nickel-Based Eutectic High Entropy Alloy AlCoCrFeNi2.1
High-temperature alloys are technically very important materials that possess higher resistance toward mechanical and chemical degradation at 0.4-0.6 TM for a constant/cyclic load. These attributes make them candidate ... -
Structure-Property Correlation in Binary Immiscible Polymer Blends Compatibilized by Mutually Miscible Homopolymer and Carbonaceous Nanoparticles
The thesis systematically studies the various morphology, mechanical properties, crystallization kinetics and compatibilization effects of homopolymers, carbonaceous nanoparticles such as multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWNTs), ... -
Structure-Property correlation in epoxy composites containing carbonaceous nanoparticles
Epoxy is widely used as thermosetting materials in carbon fiber composites due to its combined superior thermal and mechanical properties which makes them a potential candidate for myriad applications. But epoxy suffers ... -
Structures, Thermodynamics and Phase Relations in Selected Oxide Systems
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-02-08)Understanding of the interrelationship between structure, thermodynamic properties and phase diagrams is very useful for rationalizing the behavior of materials and development of predictive models, which can be used to ... -
Studies for Design of Layered Ceramic Armour Inspired by Seashells
(2018-06-26)Pearly layers in seashells, also known as nacreous layers, are reported to be three orders of magnitude tougher than their primary constituent, aragonite. Their high toughness is attributed to a particular structure of ... -

Studies In Stability Of Newtonian And Viscoelastic Fluid Flow Past Rigid And Flexible Surfaces
(2010-09-23)The surface oscillations in a deformable wall are known to induce an instability in the adjacent flow even in the absence of inertia. This instability, if understood properly, can be exploited to generate a well-mixed flow ... -
Studies In The Dynamics Of Two And Three Wheeled Vehicles
(2016-09-09)Two and three-wheeled vehicles are being used in increasing numbers in many emerging countries. The dynamics of such vehicles are very different from those of cars and other means of transportation. This thesis deals with ... -
Studies in Water Treatment : Defluoridation using Adsorption, Denitrification using a Microbial Fuel Cell, and Contaminant Removal using Solar Distillation
(2018-05-23)This thesis includes both experimental and modelling studies on the treatment of drinking water. Three aspects were studied: (i) removal of fluoride (F– ) by adsorption, (ii) removal of fluoride and other contaminants by ... -
Studies into Embodied and Operational Energy in Traditional and Conventional Residential Buildings in India
The role of the built environment and the construction industry in sustainable development gained global attention due to their significant share in global warming, GHG emissions, energy demand and depletion of non-renewable ... -
