Optimal Guidance Of Aerospace Vehicles Using Generalized MPSP With Advanced Control Of Supersonic Air-Breathing Engines
(2016-07-11)
A new suboptimal guidance law design approach for aerospace vehicles is proposed in this thesis, followed by an advanced control design for supersonic air-breathing engines. The guidance law is designed using the newly ...
Experimental Investigation Of Aerodynamic Interference Heating Due To Protuberances On Flat Plates And Cones Facing Hypersonic Flows
(2017-05-24)
With the age of hypersonic flight imminent just beyond the horizon, researchers are working hard at designing work-arounds for all the major problems as well as the minor quirks associated with it. One such issue, seemingly ...
Cyclic Pursuit : Variants and Applications
(2018-02-11)
The classical n-bugs problem has attracted considerable attention from researchers. This problem stems from the study of movement of a group of animals. In the context of multi- agent systems the problem has been modelled ...
UAV Group Autonomy In Network Centric Environment
(2016-11-23)
It is a well-recognized fact that unmanned aerial vehicles are an essential element in today’s network-centric integrated battlefield environment. Compared to solo UAV missions, multiple unmanned aerial vehicles deployed ...
On The Effect Of Material Uncertainty And Matrix Cracks On Smart Composite Plate
(2017-02-22)
Recent developments show the applications of smart structure in different engineering fields. Smart structures can be used for shape and vibration control, structural health monitoring etc. Smart materials can be integrated ...
A Residual Based h-Adaptive Strategy Employing A Zero Mean Polynomial Reconstruction
(2016-04-18)
This thesis deals with the development of a new adaptive algorithm for three-dimensional fluid flows based on a residual error estimator. The residual, known as the R –parameter has been successfully extended to three ...
LES Study Of Free Jets And Jets Impinging On Cuboidal Cavity
(2016-09-15)
Numerical solutions based on explicit filtered LES for computing turbulent flow field, of free round jets and impinging round jet on cuboidal cavities, are presented and discussed in this dissertation work. One-parameter ...
Structural Health Monitoring Of Thin Plate Like Structures Using Active And Passive Wave Based Methods
(2013-07-03)
Aerospace structures comprising of metals and composites are exposed to extreme loading and environmental conditions which necessitates regular inspection and maintenance to verify and monitor overall structural integrity. ...
A Study On Boundary Layer Transition Induced By Large Freestream Disturbances
(2013-06-12)
The initial slow viscous growth of the Tollmein-Schlichting wave in a canonical boundary layer transition is absent in bypass and wake-induced transitions. Although there have been a great deal of studies pertaining to ...
