Nature Inspired Optimization Techniques For Flood Assesment And Land Cover Mapping Using Satellite Images
(2017-04-21)
With the advancement of technology and the development of more sophisticated remote sensing sensor systems, the use of satellite imagery has opened up various fields of exploration and application. There has been an increased ...
Optimal Trajectory Planning for Fixed-Wing Miniature Air Vehicles
(2018-04-02)
Applications such as urban surveillance, search and rescue, agricultural applications, military applications, etc., require miniature air vehicles (MAVs) to fly for a long time. But they have restricted flight duration due ...
Robust Adaptive Control of a Laser Beam System for Static and Moving Targets
(2018-02-28)
The motivation of this thesis is to propose a robust control technique for a laser beam system with target estimation. The laser beam is meant to track and fall on a particular portion of the target until the operation is ...
Analysis of Rotating Beam Problems using Meshless Methods and Finite Element Methods
(2018-03-01)
A partial differential equation in space and time represents the physics of rotating beams. Mostly, the numerical solution of such an equation is an available option as analytical solutions are not feasible even for a ...
Experiments on the Late Stages of Boundary Layer Transition
(2018-03-19)
In canonical boundary layer transition, a uniform laminar flow perturbed by 2-d T-S waves develops downstream into 3-d waves, which eventually break down with turbulent spots appearing. Previous experimental studies have ...
Influence of Chemical Coating on Droplet Impact Dynamics
(2018-03-09)
Dynamic behavior of impacting water drops on superhydrophobic solid surfaces provides important details on the stability/durability of such solid surfaces. Multi-scale surface roughness combined with a layer of low energy ...
Linear Stability Models for Reacting Mixing Layers
(2018-03-12)
We develop a physics-based reduced-order model of the aero-acoustic sound sources in reacting mixing layers as a method for fast and accurate predictions of the radiated sound. Instabilities in low-speed mixing layers are ...
Lattice Boltzmann Relaxation Scheme for Compressible Flows
(2018-03-09)
Lattice Boltzmann Method has been quite successful for incompressible
flows. Its extension for compressible (especially supersonic and hypersonic)
flows has attracted lot of attention in recent time. There have been ...
Inverse Problems in Free Vibration Analysis of Rotating and Non-Rotating Beams and its Application to Random Eigenvalue Characterization
(2018-02-19)
Rotating and non-rotating beams are widely used to model important engineering struc-tures. Hence, the vibration analyses of these beams are an important problem from a structural dynamics point of view. Depending on the ...
Studies on the Effects of Carbon Nanotubes on Mechanical Properties of Bisphenol E Cyanate Ester/Epoxy Based Resin Systems and CFRP Composites
(2018-02-28)
The search and research for high performance materials for aerospace applications is a continuous evolving process. Among several fibre reinforced polymers, carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) is well known for its high ...
