Capacity Spectrum Method : Energy Based Approach
(2013-04-29)The capacity spectrum method is a very popular tool in the performance based earthquake resistant design of structures. Though it involves nonlinear static analysis, it can be used to predict the dynamic behaviour of the ... -
Cerium Oxide Based Active Catalyst for Green Hydroxylammonium Nitrate (HAN) Fueled Monopropellant Thruster
Monopropellants are widely used for propulsion and gas generation applications. The current state of art monopropellant systems are based on hydrazine propellants. While hydrazine has a strong heritage as a versatile ... -
Cerium Oxide-based Degradable Polymer Nanocomposites for Bone Tissue Engineering
The incidences of bone-related disorders is growing steeply worldwide because of acute trauma, diseases related to aging, and obesity. Bone has a natural regenerative capacity to repair and regenerate fractures and small ... -
CFD Studies Of Pulse Tube Refrigerators
(2012-12-06)The performance evaluation and parametric studies of an Inertance Tube Pulse Tube Refrigerator (IPTR) are performed for different length-to-diameter ratios, with the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) package FLUENT. The ... -
Changes In The Duration-Depth Characteristics Of Indian Monsoon Rainfall During 1951-2000
(2010-11-22)Several previous studies have found that various characteristics of the Indian monsoon rainfall have shown secular changes over the past century. In this study, using a gridded (1degree) daily rainfall dataset, we analyse ... -
The Changing Nature Of Rainfall Annual Cycle And The Propagation Characteristics Of The Intraseasonal Oscillations In Flood And Drought Years Of The Indian Monsoon
(2010-08-30)Using a 50-year (1951-2000) gridded (1-degree) daily rainfall data set over the Indian land region, we study two main aspects of the Indian monsoon. The first aspect deals with the changing nature of the rainfall annual ... -
Characterisation and Analysis of a Vibro-fluidised Granular Material
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-12-12)The present work is concerned with the mathematical modelling of a bed of granular material in a gravitational field vertically fluidised by a vibrating surface. The particles are in rapid motion, and lose energy by inelastic ... -
Characteristics of Convective Clouds Over the Indian Monsoon Zone from Weather Radar Data
Deep convective clouds play an important role in global energy balance through vertical transport of water vapor, momentum and energy, altering radiation and also influence hydrological cycle via precipitation. These clouds ... -
Characterization and Assessment of Organically Modified Clays for Geo Environmental Applications
(2018-04-11)Clays are used for long for the control of soil and water pollution as they are inexpensive natural materials with a high adsorption capacity for a wide range of pollutants. However their use as components in engineered ... -
Characterization and Control of Boundary Layer Transition Caused by Distributed Surface Roughness
Distributed roughness occurs over a variety of aerodynamic surfaces such as wind-/gas-turbine blades and aircraft wings in the form of dust, insect strikes, fouling or icing. The disturbances introduced by the roughness ... -
Characterization And Lime Stabilization Studies On Artificially Lead Contaminated Soils
(2011-07-08)Hazardous waste substances are solid, semi-solid or non-aqueous liquids that exhibit characteristics of corrosivity, reactivity, ignitability, toxicity and infectious property. Major available options for management of ... -
Characterization of a large scale hypersonic shock tunnel and investigation of the effect of roughness on a large cone boundary layer flow
High speed flight is ridden with engineering challenges, some of which have been studied for decades with only minor improvements. Boundary layer transition to turbulence in highMach number flow is one such topic, which, ... -
Characterization Of Al-Si Alloy Engine Bores For Tribological Studies
(2013-06-06)Aluminum - Silicon alloys are recognized as appropriate materials for high performance cast components used in transportation powertrain applications. A combination of excellent wear resistance, good thermal conductivity ... -
Characterization of Corneal Lens of Drosophila melanogaster and its Genetic Mutants using Atomic Force Microscope and Scanning Electron Microscope
Drosophila melanogaster (the fruit fly) is a widely used model organism for the study of human disease condition and genetic pathways due to the high degree of gene conservation between fly and human. The compound eyes of ... -
Characterization of Cure Residual Strain in CFRPs
Fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) structures are widely used compared to metallic structures due to their superior mechanical properties and lightweight. However, anisotropy and heterogeneity inherent to FRPs cause a multitude ... -
