Force Measurements On Rigid And Flexible Oscillating Foils
(2013-10-04)
In the present work, we experimentally study thrust generation from sinusoidally pitched rigid and flexible foils immersed in a uniform flow. The flexible foils are made by attaching a flexible flap of known flexural ...
A Study on the Effect of Inhomogeneous Phase of Shape Memory Alloy Wire
(2018-05-25)
The present study in this thesis has attempted to resolve one of the key aspects of enhancing predictability of macroscopic behavior of Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) wire by considering variation of local phase inhomogeneity. ...
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, ...
Buoyancy Driven Turbulence In A Vertical Pipe

Finite Element Modeling of Knee Joint to Study Tibio-Femoral Contact Machanics
(2018-05-10)
Articular cartilage covers the articulating ends of diarthrodial joints. It plays a vital role in the function of the musculoskeletal system by allowing almost frictionless motion to occur between the articular surfaces ...
Experiments On Rolling Sphere Submerged In An Incompressible Fluid
(2016-09-15)
Experiments are done using a smooth solid rigid homogeneous acrylic sphere rolling on an inclined plane which is submerged in water. The motivation for these experiments comes from a need to understand a class of solid-fluid ...
