Interaction Design and Distraction Detection of Drivers in Automobiles
In recent times, usage of electronic devices inside cars while driving has increased due to the introduction of new technologies to keep drivers comfortable and entertained. Systems like satnav ease out the navigation by ...
Studies on Flow Dynamics and Spray Swirl Interactions in Gas Turbine Combustor
Coupling of spray with the coherent structures of a highly turbulent flow has been a long-standing problem especially in the context of liquid fuel delivery systems in gas turbine combustors. The atomizer in a gas turbine ...
Studies on alkali activated compressed earth bricks for structural masonry
Earth based construction materials are acknowledged as low carbon and low embodied energy materials. The investigations dealt in the thesis were mainly focused on exploring the geopolymer and lime-ground slag binders for ...
Analysis and Modelling of Small Scale Organic Rankine Cycle System with Scroll Expander
In recent years, the growing concern about pollution from fossil fuels has resulted in an increased effort for utilization of low-grade heat sources such as industrial waste heat, solar energy and other renewable sources. ...
Understanding the demixing behavior and structure-property correlation in graphene oxide containing LCST blends
A number of researchers have studied about the effects of different nanoparticles on the phase separation of LCST polymer blend systems. Many nanoparticles such as carbon nanotubes and silica have been incorporated in ...
Mechanical Behavior of a Directionally Solidified Nickel-based Superalloy Su 247LC DS at Elevated Temperature
Directionally solidified Nickel-based superalloys are the workhorse for the Jet Engine turbine rotor blades and nozzle guide vanes (NGV) applications. Su 247LC DS is the material used for turbine rotor blades and NGVs of ...
A framework for optimizing immunotherapy for long-term control of HIV
HIV infects around 1 million people every year. Antiretroviral therapy
(ART) is used to suppress viral replication and control disease progression
but it cannot eradicate the virus. ART is therefore lifelong. Today, e ...
Vibration mitigation in spacecraft components using Stewart platform and particle impact damping
A spacecraft encounters two regimes of vibrations: launch loads and on-orbit loads. Both these loads propagate through the spacecraft structure, which is primarily made up of honeycomb sandwich. The launch loads that are ...
Development of Tubular Solar Receiver with Supercritical Carbon Dioxide as Working Fluid
Over the past decade, solar powered supercritical carbon dioxide (s-CO2) based Brayton
cycle has been identified as a promising candidate due to its potentially high cycle efficiency
(50%, for turbine inlet temperatures ...
An Approach Towards Inactivation of Susceptible and Antibiotic Resistant Bacterial Contamination using Novel Photo–(electro)-catalysts
Water in most rivers in India does not meet the standards for drinking and even for bathing purposes due to the high concentration of coliforms, organic and inorganic contaminants. Overuse, uncontrolled release and careless ...
