Partial Slip Contacts in Linear Viscoelasticity
(2017-10-05)This work analyzes partial slip contact problems in the theory of linear viscoelasticity using both the semi-analytical method and nite element method. Such problems arise in metal-polymer contacts in orthopedic implants ... -
Particle Dynamics In A Turbulent Particle-Gas Suspension At High Stokes Number
(2010-12-08)Particle laden turbulent flows find applications in many industrial processes such as energy conversion, air pollution control etc. In these types of flows, there are strong coupling between the turbulent fluctuations in ... -
Particle-laden Rayleigh-Benard convection
Particle-laden flows are ubiquitous in nature and industries. For example, water droplets in clouds, fine dust particles in strong winds leading to dusty storms, dunes, ejection of solid particles and ash during volcanic ... -
Passive control and intermittent dynamics of the precessing vortex core oscillation in swirl flows
Swirl is used in modern gas turbine combustor nozzles to achieve reliable flame stabilization and efficient fuel-air mixing. The swirl component in the nozzle jet flow induces an axial vortex. At high swirl intensities, ... -
Passive Earth Pressure Coefficients And There Applications In The Uplift Capacity Of Anchors
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-10-13)The problem of passive earth pressure is one of the important topics in Geotechnical engineering. At attempt is made in this thesis to generate passive earth pressure coefficients for general c-Φ soils using logarithmic ... -
Passive Interfacial Evaporation-based Thermal Desalination Systems
Desalination offers a promising solution to the global water shortage by utilizing the vast resource of seawater. With 26% of the world’s population lacking access to potable water currently, there is a growing need to ... -
Patterns of variability of Indian monsoon Rainfall
The study of variability of southwest monsoon (SWM) rainfall is of considerable scientific importance. The complexities in understanding the behaviour of SWM rainfall are due to the strong space–time variation involved in ... -
