Coupled Heat Transfer Processes in Enclosed Horizontal Heat Generating Rod Bundles
(2018-03-24)In a nuclear fuel cask, the heat generating spent fuel rods are packed in a housing and the resulting bundle is placed inside a cask of thick outer shell made of materials like lead or concrete. The cask presents a wide ... -
Crack Tip Fields And Mechanisms Of Fracture In Ductile FCC Single Crystals
(2015-01-07)An understanding of crack tip fields and fracture mechanisms in single crystals can help in developing better polycrystalline alloys and manufacturing processes. To this end, the effects of loading rate, material inertia ... -
Creation of an Orderly Jet and Thrust Generation in Quiescent Fluid from an Oscillating Two-dimensional Flexible Foil
(2018-02-22)In nature, many of the flapping wings and fins in swimming and flying animals have various degrees of flexibility with strong and coupled solid-fluid interactions between the structure and the fluid. In most cases, the ... -
Creep And Grain Boundary Sliding In A Mg-0.7% Al Alloy
(2011-08-25) -
Creep, Wear And Corrosion Behaviour Of Novel Magnesium Alloys And Composites
(2011-04-01)In the present investigation, MMCs have been fabricated using the creep-resistant AE42 magnesium alloy as matrix and reinforcing it with saffil short fibres (essentially δ-Al2O2) and SiC particles in various combinations. ... -
Critical Excitation And Inverse Approach In Random Vibration

Crustal evolution and tectonic processes of the Madras Block, India
The Neoarchaean (2.8–2.5 Ga) era in the earth’s history witnessed significant crustal growth related to the amalgamation and dispersion of ancient continents. The processes leading to the formation and destruction of the ... -
The Crustal Evolution of Nilgiri Block, Southern India : A Study on Archean Tectonics and Crustal Growth
(2018-08-02)The oldest dated rocks from the Acasta gneisses of the western Slave Province, Canada present an igneous age of ~4030 Ma. Following this the detrital zircons from the Jack Hills, Narryer Gneiss Terrane, Yilgarn Craton, ... -
Crystal Nucleation in Binary Hard Sphere Mixtures
(2018-03-06)Homogeneous crystal nucleation in binary hard sphere mixtures is an active area of research for last two decades. Although Classical nucleation theory (CNT) gives a qualitative picture, it fails at high super saturations ... -
Cyclic Pursuit : Variants and Applications
(2018-02-11)The classical n-bugs problem has attracted considerable attention from researchers. This problem stems from the study of movement of a group of animals. In the context of multi- agent systems the problem has been modelled ... -
Cylindrical Fretting And Delamination : Axisymmetric Static And Dynamic Analysis
(2011-01-17)Axisymmetric analysis of cylindrical contacts is considered in the context of axisymmetric assemblies such as shrink-fits. Fretting fatigue induces sub-critical cracks along the contact interface of press fits especially ... -
Damping of magnetic-Coriolis waves with imposed magnetic field orthogonal to the axis of rotation
Small-scale columnar structures (<10 km radius) in Earth's outer core result from inertial waves. In highly conducting fluid, magnetic field behaviour resembles stretched elastic strings and transmits disturbances as Alfvén ... -
Data Assimilation Experiments Using An Indian Ocean General Circulation Model
(2008-09-09)Today, ocean modeling is fast developing as a versatile tool for the study of earth’s climate, local marine ecosystems and coastal engineering applications. Though the field of ocean modeling began in the early 1950s along ... -
Decentralized Sustainable Energy Planning For Tumkur District, India
(2010-02-18)The energy-planning involves finding a set of sources and conversion devices so as to meet the energy requirements/demands of all the activities in an optimal manner. This could occur at centralized or decentralized level. ...
