Response of Plain and Reinforced Concrete Elements to Various Mechanical Loads
Reinforced concrete (RC) is being used for a wide range of structural applications. In order to design safe and economical RC structural elements it is necessary to analyse these elements accounting for the realistic ...
Prospects of Bioethanol from Estuarine Macroalgae
Burgeoning dependence on fossil fuels for transport and industrial sectors has been posing challenges such as depletion of fossil fuel reserves, enhanced greenhouse gas (GHG) footprint, and imminent changes in the climate, ...
Droplet Microfluidics for Nucleic Acid Quantification and Single Cell Analysis
Droplet microfluidics provides controlled generation of monodispersed droplets of the order of a few picoliters in multiphase microfluidic systems. These droplets are employed as micro-reactors to conduct chemical/biochemical ...
Cerium Oxide Based Active Catalyst for Green Hydroxylammonium Nitrate (HAN) Fueled Monopropellant Thruster
Monopropellants are widely used for propulsion and gas generation applications. The current state of art monopropellant systems are based on hydrazine propellants. While hydrazine has a strong heritage as a versatile ...
Tectonic evolution and tin mineralisation of the Karagwe–Ankole Belt, Rwanda
Studies of the tectonic evolution and associated ore genesis through time are fundamental to understanding Earth’s crustal growth, evolution, and related enrichment in metal deposits. The present PhD research work has ...
Microbially-induced Mineral Flocculation and Flotation with Proteins and Polysaccharides Isolated from Paenibacillus
The most significant environmental issue that has arisen in the mining industries over the last decade is that of acid mine drainage (AMD) from tailing dumps and waste mined rock piles. AMD is caused by the oxidation of ...
Dynamics of Laminar Separation Bubbles on Low Reynolds Number Airfoils
This is a detailed study on the aerodynamics of low Reynolds number airfoils. E387
airfoil that comes under the category of trailing-edge stall is used extensively in this
study. The reduction in lift due to low Reynolds ...
Structural acoustics of perforated panels
In this work, radiation and transmission of sound through flexible perforated panels set in infinite rigid baffles are investigated. The treatment is largely analytical using Fourier transforms and contour integrations. ...
On the Structure and Propagation of Premixed Flames in Turbulence
Turbulence interacts with
flames over a multitude of lengthscales and timescales. These interactions are
nonlinear and are ubiquitous, for example, in propulsion engines operating in space, air, land, and sea. ...
Fate and Remediation of Ammonium-n In Pit Toilet Blackwater
Pit toilets satisfy the sanitation requirement in regions with no access to piped sewerage facilities. Black water discharged from pit toilets is a major source of groundwater pollution. The primary focus of the thesis is ...
