Planar Fault Energies in L12 Compounds
High temperature metallic structural materials, such as Ni-base superalloys owe their strength to a two-phase microstructure consisting of an fcc matrix strengthened by intermetallic A3B type precipitates. The performance ...
Retrieval of Land Surface Variables using Microwave Remote Sensing
Microwave remote sensing of the land surface processes has advantages over optical remote sensing such as least attenuation due to the atmosphere, and high temporal resolution among others. Soil moisture is an important ...
Experiments on Varying Intensity Air Blasts in Shock Tubes
Abstract
In the recent past, with an increasing number of terrorist activities, blast related research has focused on conducting careful experiments to develop newer protection strategies. As field experiments using ...
Bioremediation of Mechanically and Biologically Treated Waste Of Bangalore City: An Experimental and Numerical Study
Remediation of the existing MSW dumpsites has received considerable attention these days and there is an urgent need to address this issue in order to maintain the over hygiene of the urban environment. An approach consisting ...
Atomistic Simulation of Grain Boundary Effects on Cascade Damage in Vanadium
Advancements in fusion reactor technology has led to the construction of ITER and the realisation of fusion energy is closer than ever before. However, realisation of fusion energy critically depends upon breakthrough in ...
Testing Methodologies for Probing Site Specific Fatigue Response of Graded Coatings
Thermal barrier coating systems (TBC’s) employed in the high pressure turbine section of a modern aero-turbine engine serve as an example of constrained material systems used for engineering applications. TBC’s today are ...
Applications of Advanced CAE Methodologies to Orthopaedic Implant and Vehicle Occupant cum Pedestrian Safety Countermeasure Design
In the present work, experimental and numerical investigations into the load-displacement responses of a human lumbar Truncated Vertebral Unit (TVU) under quasi-static and impact loading conditions have been carried out ...
Studies on Characteristics of Cement Stabilised Rammed Earth and Flexural Behaviour of Plain and Reinforced Rammed Earth
The rammed earth technique has been explored in the past, for the construction of load bearing walls in the buildings. Rammed earth construction involves compaction of partially saturated loose soil-sand mix in a rigid ...
Evolution of Microstructure and Texture in Manganese Steels
Twinning Induced Plasticity (TWIP) and Transformation Induced Plasticity (TRIP) steels possess excellent combination of high strength and high ductility. Deformation twinning and strain induced martensitic phase transformation ...
Development of Novel Heat Transfer Gauges Based on Large Carbon Clusters to Measure Total as well as Radiative Heat Flux for Planetary Entry Configurations in Hypersonic Shock Tunnels
The quest of travelling beyond earth, preludes with ground based experimental studies, detailed analysis and accurate calculations in the aspects of having a safer design of flying vehicles. As the vehicles plunge into the ...
