Exploring Hydrological Processes, Modeling Decisions, and Deep Learning for Improved Hydrologic Assessment
Hydrological modeling is complicated by the intricate challenges and uncertainties associated with understanding hydrological processes. This thesis aims at answering some of the key research questions related to ... -
Exploring water dynamics and gas separations in graphene oxide surfaces and nanopores
Graphene oxide (GO) is a chemically functionalized graphene with various oxygen-containing functional groups, such as epoxy (-O-), hydroxyl (-OH), and carboxyl (-COOH) on the basal plane. As a consequence, GOs have hydrophilic ... -
An Extended Integrated Model Of Designing
(2014-06-20)Product success is a major goal of designing and design research. Designing involves developing systems. A system interacts with its environment to satisfy its requirements. Therefore, designing should involve developing ... -
Extended Range Predictability And Prediction Of Indian Summer Monsoon
(2009-03-17)Indian summer monsoon (ISM) is an important component of the tropical climate system, known for its regular seasonality and abundance of rainfall over the country. The droughts and floods associated with the year-to-year ... -
Extended Reality based Digital Twin of Arc Welding
Arc welding is an important permanent joining process widely used across multiple industries such as transportation, infrastructure construction and equipment manufacturing. However, the inherent high-energy physics and ... -
Externally Induced Instabilities in Contactless Functional Droplets
Many natural and technological processes involve spray or cluster of droplets which are subjected to chaotic external environment. Study of the behavior of a single droplet is therefore crucial to understand the dynamics ... -
Extra-cellular Polysaccharides and Microbially Induced Carbonate Cementation Using Indigenous Microbes in Cattle Manure
Soft soils are composed of large portions of silts and clay and are characterized by low strength and high compressibility owing to their high-water content. Biocementation techniques are emerging as a strong alternative ... -
Extraction of Creep Parameters from Indentation Creep Experiment: An Artificial Neural Network- Based Approach
Conventional methods for extracting creep properties require conducting several uniaxial tests at different loads, which consumes an intensive amount of material and time. Indentation may minimize the material volume ... -
Extraction of Equivalent Uniaxial Plastic and Viscoplastic Behavior from Bending Using a Mechanistic Approach
The present work is aimed at the extraction of material’s yield and creep parameters using cantilevers by conducting constant deflection rate and constant load tests respectively. Under the assumption of Euler-Bernoulli’s ... -
Extratropical Influence on the Sub-seasonal Rainfall Deficit in Indian Summer Monsoon
The variability of Indian monsoon on a range of timescales - seasonal to interannual to decadal - has been studied and characterised extensively over the past several decades. On the mechanistic front, the role ... -
Extremes of Indian Summer Monsoon Rainfall and Equatorial Indian Ocean Oscillation
Our studies suggest that the equatorial Indian Ocean Oscillation, which is the atmospheric component of Indian Ocean Dipole, is as important as El Nino and Southern Oscillation for the interannual variation of Indian Summer ... -

Fabrication and Characterization of Optomechanical Devices
Silicon photonics is a promising platform for photonic devices and circuits, largely driven by advanced complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) processing technology. An extremely crucial component for a photonic ... -
Factors Affecting The Static And Dynamic Response Of Jointed Rock Masses
(2010-07-20)Infrastructure is developing at an extremely fast pace which includes construction of metros, underground storage places, railway bridges, caverns and tunnels. Very often these structures are found in or on the rock masses. ... -
Factors Controlling the Dispersivity of Soils and the Role of Zeta Potential
(2017-12-07)Most soil particles loses cohesion and split up the soil mass into individual soil grains when they come in contact with water and get saturated. In dispersive soils the particles detach more spontaneously from each other ... -
Factors Influencing Contaminant Transport in Vadose Zone of Near Surface Radioactive Waste Disposal Facility
Radioactive waste is generally classified as low and intermediate level waste (LILW) and high-level waste (HLW), based on their level of radioactivity and the time taken for decay. The low and intermediate level ...
