Interannual Variation of Monsoon in a High Resolution AGCM with Climatological SST Forcing
(2018-04-06)
Interannual variation of Indian summer (June-September: JJAS) monsoon rainfall (ISMR) depends on its relative intensity during early (June-July: JJ; contribution 52%) and late (August-September: AS; contribution 49%) phases. ...
Dynamics and Stability of Multiple Jets in Geophysical Flows
(2018-04-18)
The effect of rotation on the stability of multiple jets in planetary atmospheres is system- atically investigated. Typically in Jovian planetary atmospheres, multiple zonal jets have been observed and their morphology has ...
Integrability Evaluation Methodology for Building Integrated Photovoltaic's (BIPV) : A Study in Indian Climatic Conditions
(2018-01-02)
India’s geographical location renders it with ample solar-energy potential ranging from 4-7 kWh/m2 daily and 2,300–3,200 sunshine hours annually. The diverse nature of human settlements (scattered low-rise to dense high-rise) ...
Granular Media Supported Microbial Remediation of Nitrate Contaminated Drinking Water
(2018-01-11)
Increasing nitrate concentration in ground water from improper disposal of sewage and excessive use of fertilizers is deleterious to human health as ingestion of nitrate contaminated water can cause methaemoglobinemia in ...

(2018-02-10)
Tee present research focuses on seismic hazard studies for the states of Tripura and Mizoram in the North-East India with taking into account the complex sesismotectonic characteristics of the region. This area is more ...
Impacts of Climate Change on IDF Relationships for Design of Urban Stormwater Systems
(2018-01-29)
Increasing global mean temperature or global warming has the potential to affect the hydrologic cycle. In the 21st century, according to the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), alterations in the frequency ...
Studies on the Modeling of Fatigue Crack Growth and Damage in Concrete : A Thermodynamic Approach
(2018-01-11)
Fatigue in concrete is a complex phenomenon involving formation of microcracks, their coalescence into major crack and simultaneous formation of the fracture process zone ahead of the crack tip. Complex phenomena are best ...
Ground Improvement using 3D-Cellular Confinement Systems : Experimental and Numerical Studies
(2018-01-09)
The various aspects of the 3D cellular confinement systems (geocells) subjected to static loading are comprehensively studied with the help of experimental and numerical studies. The performances of the geocells were ...
Shear Behaviour of Sand-geosynthetic Interfaces Based on Size And Morphology of Sand Particles and Surface Roughness of Geosynthetics
(2018-01-01)
Geosynthetics are used in conjunction with soil/particulate materials to serve various functions like reinforcement, drainage, filtration and containment. The shear behavior of soil-geosynthetic interfaces hugely depends ...
