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 ... -
Fate and Remediation of Ammonium-n In Pit Toilet Blackwater
Pit toilets satisfy the sanitation requirement in regions with no access to piped sewerage facilities. Black water discharged from pit toilets is a major source of groundwater pollution. The primary focus of the thesis is ... -
Fatigue Crack Growth in Roller-Rocker and Rocker Bearings of Railway Steel Bridges
Indian Railways comprise a major part of the infrastructure in India. Most of the transportation of raw materials, goods, and people from different parts of the country is done by the railways. To cope with the ever-increasing ... -
Fatigue Damage Characterization Of Carbon/Epoxy Laminates Under Spectrum Loading
(2013-10-04)Fibre Reinforced Polymer Composites are extensively used in aircraft structures because of its high specific stiffness, high specific strength and tailorability. Though Fibre Reinforced Polymers offer many advantages, they ...
