Core-Shell Precipitates in Ternary Alloys: A Phase-Field Study
Since the discovery of age hardening, a large number of alloys have been produced that exploit the presence of one or more precipitate phases in the microstructure for strength enhancement. In recent decades, alloys with ... -
Correlation Between Microstructure and Corrosion Properties of Electrodeposited Nickel and Zinc Based Coatings
Conventional metallic coatings such as Ni and Zn are extensively used in corrosion protection applications. In most studies on the corrosion behavior of metallic coatings, the emphasis is on correlating morphology and ... -
Correlation Between Microstructure, Electrochemical Degradation and Hydrogen Permeation behaviour of Electrodeposited Cobalt Based Coatings
The application of cobalt and cobalt based coatings is limited by their electrochemical degradation in corrosive environments. In the present work, corrosion and hydrogen permeation behavior of electrodeposited Co and ... -
Correlation Between Structure, Microstructure and Enhanced Piezoresponse Around the Morphotropic Phase Boundary of Bismuth Scandate-Lead Titanate Piezoceramic
(2018-05-11)Piezoelectric materials find use as actuators and sensors in automotive, aerospace and other related industries. Automotive applications such as fuel injection nozzles and engine health monitoring systems require operating ... -
Corrosion and related electrochemical studies on ziroconium (in nitrate melts, nitrats fluoride melts and aqueous nitrate solutions)
The thesis embodies the results of the investigations on the corrosion of zirconium in nitrate melts. The predicted thermodynamic behaviour of zirconium in 2-component NaNO?-KNO? eutectic melts based on E-pO diagrams ... -
Corrosion And Wear Behaviour of Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation And Laser Surface Alloy Coatings Produced on Mg Alloys
(2017-10-11)In the present investigation, surface coatings employing laser surface alloying (LSA) and plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) processes have been prepared on Mg alloys. The coatings have been investigated for corrosion and ... -
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 ... -
Coupled vibro-acoustics of an unbaffled plate
In this work, that falls largely in the realm of applied mathematics, we consider a fluid-loaded finite simply-supported rectangular unbaffled plate with the following objectives: a) to derive a closed form mathematical ... -
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 ... -

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 ...
