(2018-07-16)
The complex multiscale physics of nanoparticle laden functional droplets in a reacting environment is of fundamental and applied significance for a wide variety of applications ranging from thermal sprays to pharmaceutics ...
Characterization of Flow Induced Noise Received by an Array Placed at Stagnation Point of an Underwater Axisymmetric Body
(2018-07-09)
Given the interest on underwater axisymmetric cylindrical bodies for the development of high-speed underwater weapons, characterization of the boundary layer flow-induced noise received by a Sound NAvigation and Ranging ...
Modeling Free Surface Flows and Fluid Structure Interactions using Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics
(2018-06-26)
Recent technological advances are based on effectively using complex multiphysics concepts. Therefore, there is an ever increasing need for accurate numerical al-gorithms of reduced complexity for solving multiphysics ...
Heterogeneous Object Modelling : Representation, Construction and Process Planning
(2018-06-26)
Heterogeneous Objects are engineered with multiple materials to achieve multiple functionalities like high hardness, high toughness and low structural weight. Heterogeneous objects are increasingly used to achieve multiple ...
Experimental and Numerical Investigation of an Evaporating Meniscus in a Capillary Slot : Microscale and Pore Scale Studies
(2018-08-09)
An evaporating meniscus formed by a wetting °uid in a heated capillary slot with capillary driven °flow is numerically and experimentally investigated at the microscale and pore scale.
In the microscale analysis, the ...
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, ...
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 ...
Thermal Performance of Various Roof Elements Under Different Weather Conditions
(2018-05-14)
Beside the point of whether the country is developed or underdeveloped, energy crisis is a common scene all over the world. In order to balance energy supply and demand, either one has to increase the supply or decrease ...
Dynamics of Summer Monsoon Current around Sri Lanka
(2018-05-21)
Summer monsoon current (SMC) in the north Indian Ocean (NIO) is an open ocean current that flows eastward and enter into Bay of Bengal (BoB) during southwest monsoon (June–September). South of Sri Lanka, the SMC turns ...
