Effect of tensile prestrian on fatigue strength of a solution treated precipitation hardened Aluminium alloy and design and development of a plane and rotating bending fatigue testing machine
A versatile plane and rotating bending fatigue testing machine with continuously variable strain control has been designed and developed. Attachments for measurement of cyclic stress and cyclic strain have been developed ... -
Nonlinear mode theory of shear flow development
The major part of this thesis is concerned with the description of a new technique for analysing the development of shear layers (particularly in free flows). A principal feature of this method is the expansion of the ... -
Numerical studies of some non-linear problems in fluid mechanics
The problem of flow around a circular cylinder has long attracted the attention of many research workers because of its many practical applications and exciting mathematical features. This thesis contains the results of ... -
Some studies on the ultimate load capacity of arches and arch dams
The behaviour of a plain concrete rectangular section under an eccentric thrust, up to failure, may be studied using an appropriate strain pattern and a suitable stress-strain curve for concrete. The curve obtained using ... -
Studies in dehydrochlorination of 1,1, 2, 2 Tetrachloroethane
Dehydrochlorination of tetrachloroethane is studied both in homogeneous as well as in heterogeneous phases. The feasibility of the reaction has been evaluated from thermodynamic considerations. The reaction is found to ... -
Studies on dealkylation of alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons Part II- Demithylation of xylene isomers and ethylebezene to benzene
The demand for benzene is increasing. The possibilities of preparing it from substituted benzene by dealkylation are investigated in the present work. From the literature pertaining to dealkylation processes, the vapour?phase ... -
Studies on transverse fin tube heat exchangers
This thesis presents an investigation of heat?transfer and pressure?drop characteristics of tubes with parallel fins (straight and inclined) placed concentrically inside an outer pipe through which air is flowing. Experimental ...
