Towards Automated Design of Toggle Switch Mechanisms
(2017-09-20)This work deals with addressing the issues related to design of double toggle switch mechanisms with emphasis on structural, dimensional and dynamic aspects. Currently, almost all the issues related to electrical switches ... -
Towards Measurement And Simulation Of Elasto-Plastic Deformation
(2009-03-09)The stretch forming process is frequently used in the automotive industry (outer pan- els, inner panels, stiffeners etc.), the packaging industry and household appliances sector, to manufacture complicated shapes and ... -
Towards metal additive manufacturing using alternate powders
Metal powders are predominantly produced using processes derived from atomization, which, apart from being highly energy intensive, are also inflexible and very material specific. These limitations are particularly acute ... -
Transfer Layer Formation And Friction In Extrusion Of Aluminum : An Experimental Study Using A High Temperature Vacuum Based Pin-On-Disc Machine
(2010-09-21)Hot extrusion of aluminum is widely practiced in industries for economic production of structural components. The surface finish and tolerance of the extruded components, both from design and aesthetic requirement, are ... -
Transition and Acoustic Response of Vortex Breakdown Modes in Unconfined Coaxial Swirling Flow and Flame
(2018-07-19)The efficient and enhanced mixing of heat and incoming reactants is achieved in modern gas turbine systems by employing swirling flows. This is realized by a low velocity region (internal recirculation zone -IRZ) zone ... -
Transition Zone In Constant Pressure Boundary Layer With Converging Streamlines
(Indian Institute of Science, 2007-04-18)The laminar-turbulent transition in viscous fluid flows is one of the most intriguing problems in fluid dynamics today. In view of the enormous applications it has in a variety of fields such as aircraft design, turbomachinery, ... -
Translation from batch to continuous processing of metal nanoparticle synthesis and application metallic nanostructures printed on flexible substrates
One of the key challenges in nanoparticle synthesis is the quality control on scaling up the operation from bench to plant scale, which is constrained by conventionally adopted batch operation. Translation from batch ... -
Transport Phenomena In Laser Surface Alloying: A Numerical Investigation
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-08-24)A comprehensive, transient three-dimensional model of a single-pass laser surface alloying process has been developed and used to examine the heat, momentum and species transport phenomena. A numerical study is performed ... -
Trends and Variability in Terrestrial Carbon Fluxes and Stocks over India in the 20th and 21st centuries: A Multi-model Based Assessment
Terrestrial ecosystems play an important role in the global carbon cycle by naturally taking up carbon from the atmosphere through photosynthesis and storing this carbon as biomass and soil carbon. There exists a strong, ... -
Tribology Of Aluminium Alloys Against Steel Under Boundary Lubricated Condition
(2009-04-15)Aluminium silicon alloy has been found to be advantageous in many automobile components like pistons, cylinders, brakes and clutches. The main objective in using these alloys is to obtain lightweight and low friction ... -
Tribology Of An Etched Near-Eutectic Aluminium-Silicon Alloy Sliding Against A Steel Counterface
(2013-05-01)Lightweight aluminium-silicon alloy is an attractive material for making engine cylinders in automobiles. It imparts good power to weight ratio to the engine. High silicon containing aluminium alloys are used in current ... -
Tribology Of Combustion Generated Soot
(2016-11-19)Soot is a carbonaceous materials produced as a result of incomplete combustion of fuels (gasoline, diesel, etc). At the present level of automobile technology, emission of soot from combustion in diesel engine appears to ... -
A Tropical Survey of Mid-Tropospheric Cyclones, their Classification and Genesis over the Arabian Sea
Middle Tropospheric Cyclones (MTCs) are moist synoptic tropical systems with vorticity maxima in the middle troposphere and weak signature in the lower troposphere. We begin with a tropical survey of MTCs; in South Asia, ... -
Tropical Teleconnections to the Indian Summer Monsoon in Observations and in a Coupled Model
An accurate seasonal prediction of Indian summer monsoon rainfall (ISMR) holds immense importance for the socio-economic well-being of South-Asian countries, as it directly impacts agricultural output and overall economies. ... -
Tufting of carbon fibre/epoxy composites for improved damage tolerance
Laminated composite structures are susceptible to delamination and debonding during their service life due to their poor out-of-plane interlamellar properties. Such damage can occur either during manufacturing or during ... -
Turbulence in Soft Walled Micro Channels
(2017-12-07)In comparison to the flow in a rigid channel, there is a multi-fold reduction in the transition Reynolds number for the flow in a micro channel when one of the walls is made sufficiently soft, due to a dynamical instability ... -
Turbulence Modeling for Predicting Flow Separation in Rocket Nozzles
(2018-01-30)Convergent-Divergent (C-D) nozzles are used in rocket engines to produce thrust as a reaction to the acceleration of hot combustion chamber gases in the opposite direction. To maximize the engine performance at high ...
