Interdiffusion Study in Group IVB, VB and VIB Refractory Metal-Silicon Systems
(2018-04-13)The knowledge of diffusion parameters provides important understanding of many physical and mechanical properties of materials. In most of the applications silicides are grown by a diffusion controlled process mainly in ... -
Interface capturing in multiphase flows using finite volume based level set method
An important class of problems involves a substance transforming from one phase to another with absorption or emission of energy. Such cases arise in many settings, of which melting, solidification, condensation, and ... -
Interface Engineering and Evaluation of Device Performance in Organic Photovoltaics
(2018-05-11)In recent years, organic photovoltaics (OPVs) have attracted considerable attention as a potential source of renewable energy over traditional materials due to their light weight, low production cost, mechanically stability ... -
Interfacial Engineering of Hierarchical Carbon Fiber Reinforced Epoxy Laminates for Mechanical Property Enhancement and Self-healing Ability
Carbon fiber-reinforced epoxy (CFRE) laminates have become a significant component in aircraft industries over the years due to their superior mechanical and highly tunable properties. However, the interfacial area between ... -
Interfacial oscillations and atomization of liquid jets from non-circular orifices
Understanding the flow behaviour of liquid jets discharging from orifices is essential for several applications such as fuel spraying, ink-jet printing, aerosol devices in pharmaceutical industries, micro-machined fuel ... -
Interfacial Processes in Densification of Cubic Zirconia
(2018-02-21)Sintering, a process of forming dense solid bodies from powder compacts remains the most important route for processing of ceramics. The process of sintering involves formation and growth of necks during initial stage, ... -
Interference Effect of Closely Spaced Square Footings on Geocell Reinforced Sand and Clay Beds: Experimental and Numerical Studies
With rapid growth of construction rate and lack of suitable land sites for construction, placing building foundations close to each other and on soft-grounds is inevitable. When the foundations are placed close enough on ... -
Interference Effects On The Collapse Loads For Footings And Anchors Using An Upper Bound Finite Element Limit Analysis
(2011-02-17)The present thesis is an attempt to investigate the interference effects on the magnitudes of the ultimate failure loads for a group of closely spaced strip footings and strip plate anchors. On account of an increase in ... -
Interplay of Performance and Robustness in Architected and Naturally Evolved Structures
Humans have long drawn inspiration from nature, drawing on its intricate and efficient designs for solving complex engineering challenges. One such feature is the aperiodicity observed in biological systems, which exhibit ... -
Intersection Planning in Multilane Aerial Corridors for UAVs
Humans have always been on a quest to improve the means of transportation. The evolution will inevitably lead towards autonomy in the operations of aerial and ground vehicles. As for the Uncrewed Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), ... -
Intraseasonal oscillations and interannual variability of the Indian summer monsoon
Several modeling studies show that the predictability of the seasonal mean Indian summer monsoon is limited due to a significant fraction of the interannual variability of the seasonal mean being governed by internal chaotic ... -
Intraseasonal Variability in Aquaplanet Configuration of Community Atmosphere Model
The Intraseasonal Oscillation (ISO) plays an important role to modulate deep convective activity in the tropical region. In this thesis, I aim to understand the role of land and warm oceans in ISO, using a general ... -
Intraseasonal Variability Of The Equatorial Indian Ocean Circulation
(Indian Institute Of Science, 2004-10)Climatological winds over the equatorial Indian Ocean (EqlO) are westerly most of the year. Twice a year, in April-May ("spring") and October-December ("fall"), strong, sustained westerly winds generate eastward equatorial ... -
Intraseasonal Variations In Sea Level Pressure And Association With Tropical Convection
(2010-07-19)This thesis deals with tropical intraseasonal variation (TISV) having time scales in 20-80 day range. Variations on this time scale have been observed to have profound influence on the weather and climate of the entire ... -
Intraseasonal variations of the tropical convergence zones in a simple monsoon model
In this thesis we have simulated the salient features of intraseasonal variation of the Indian summer monsoon using a simple monsoon model and unravelled the mechanisms governing these features. The monsoon model is a ... -
