Wall Effects In Packed Beds
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-07-13)Packed beds find extensive application in a wide variety of industries. The objective of the present work is to analyze and evaluate the effects of the wall on structural characteristics, hydrodynamics and heat transfer ... -
Water Balance Studies In A Small Experimental Forested Watershed, South India
(2011-04-01)Forested watersheds play a dominant role in the global hydrological cycle. Very few experimental observatories especially in tropical forested regions of India have been undertaken. This study has been initiated for this ... -
Water Soluble Inorganic Aerosol Chemical Characteristics Over An Urban Site In Southern India
(2015-12-08)Aerosol are solid or liquid particles suspended in the atmosphere ranging in size from 10 3 to 102 m. Aerosol influence both the regional and global climate of the earth by its direct and indirect effect. Role of atmospheric ... -
Wave Propagation in Adhesively Bonded Single Lap Joints: Solution of Forward and Inverse Problems
The use of adhesives for bonding composites as well as metals is rapidly increasing since it provides uniform load transfer and is free of stress concentration seen around the drilled holes in bolted or riveted joints. ... -

Wave Propagation in Healthy and Defective Composite Structures under Deterministic and Non-Deterministic Framework
(2018-03-08)Composite structures provide opportunities for weight reduction, material tailoring and integrating control surfaces with embedded transducers, which are not possible in conventional metallic structures. As a result there ... -
Wave Propagation In Hyperelastic Waveguides
(2014-06-20)The analysis of wave propagation in hyperelastic waveguides has significant applications in various branches of engineering like Non-Destructive Testing and Evaluation, impact analysis, material characterization and damage ... -
Wave Propagation in Sandwich Beam Structures with Novel Modeling Schemes
(2017-10-31)Sandwich constructions are the most commonly used structures in aircraft and navy industries, traditionally. These structures are made up of the face sheets and the core, where the face sheets will be taking the load and ... -
Wave Transmission Characteristics in Honeycomb Sandwich Structures using the Spectral Finite Element Method
(2017-12-12)Wave propagation is a phenomenon resulting from high transient loadings where the duration of the load is in µ seconds range. In aerospace and space craft industries it is important to gain knowledge about the high frequency ... -
Wavelet Based Spectral Finite Elements For Wave Propagation Analysis In Isotropic, Composite And Nano-Composite Structures
(2009-04-02)Wave propagation is a common phenomenon in aircraft structures resulting from high velocity transient loadings like bird hit, gust etc. Apart from understanding the behavior of structures under such loading, wave propagation ... -
Weakly cemented granular materials: study at multiple length scales
Cemented granular systems are encountered at various scales in nature and artificially. We present an experimental study carried out on the structure and mechanical behaviour of weakly cemented granular materials. We study ... -
Weighted Least Squares Kinetic Upwind Method Using Eigendirections (WLSKUM-ED)
(2009-06-24)Least Squares Kinetic Upwind Method (LSKUM), a grid free method based on kinetic schemes has been gaining popularity over the conventional CFD methods for computation of inviscid and viscous compressible flows past complex ... -
Wetting and Frictional Properties of Hexagonal Boron Nitride with Atomic-Scale Defects and Roughness
Two-dimensional (2D) materials such as graphene, hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), and molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) have become materials of choice for applications spanning optoelectronics, atomically thin coatings, and ... -
Whisker Growth from Electrodeposited Sn Coatings - Developing Materials Science and Mechanics Based Insights
(2018-05-23)Pure Sn and Sn-alloys are widely used in electrical and microelectronic devices as protective layer to prevent oxidation of Cu conductors and also as a component of Pb-free, Sn-based solders. Sn coatings, typically 0.5-10 ... -
Wing in Ground Effect
(2017-12-01)The thesis presents a two pronged approach for predicting aerodynamics of air- foils/wings in the vicinity of the ground. The first approach is effectively a model for ground effect studies, employing an inexpensive Discrete ... -
