Microstructure and texture engineering strategies to enhance the corrosion resistance of tin based coatings
Coating corrosion-prone material with metal/alloy and passivated oxide layers is the primary protection method in the ever-evolving corrosion protection area. To improve the corrosion resistance of the coatings, the coating ...
Satellite Attitude Determination from Terrestrial/Planetary Landmarks
Attitude Determination (AD) or specifying orientation relative to a known reference frame
plays a crucial role in meeting the mission specific pointing goals of a satellite. Attitude sensors
provide measurements of known ...
On the spatial extent of extreme rainfall events over India during the summer monsoon
The spatial extent of extreme rainfall events directly affects the damages caused and
impacts of such events. However, it has been less explored in the literature. This thesis
examines extreme rainfall events of different ...
Asymptotic Analysis Of The Dispersion Characteristics Of Structural Acoustic Waveguides
(2010-04-12)
In this work, we study the coupled dispersion characteristics of three distinct structural-acoustic waveguides, namely: -(1) a two-dimensional waveguide, (2) a fluid-filled circular cylindrical shell and (3)a fluid-filledelliptic ...
Simulation and Study of Noise Generated due to Turbulent Boundary Layer in Towed Hydrophone Array
In this thesis, a wave propagation based analytical model is developed for an underwater towed array. The towed array is modeled as an in finite tube filled with a certain liquid and submerged in an in finite volume of ...
Permeability Modeling for Single Scale and Dual Scale Fabrics and its implementation to Fabrics Undergoing Shear
Composites have found applications, right from high-end aerospace structures to naval and land-based structures. These structures are realized by manufacturing processes like, autoclave and vacuum assisted resin transfer ...
Microstructure and Electrochemical Properties of Electrodeposited High Entropy Alloys Coatings
High entropy alloys (HEA) are composed of five or more alloying elements in a nearly equi-atomic ratio. HEAs exhibit high oxidation and corrosion resistance behaviour. In this work, HEA coatings were electrodeposited over ...
Architecting and Developing Sensors for Environmental Monitoring
Pollution arising from inorganic and organic contaminants is a major environmental hazard that needs imperative attention. Anthropogenic and natural deposition of heavy metal ions constitute a significant component of this ...
Study of solvent induced polymorphism and crystal nucleation from solution
Crystal polymorphism is the existence of different crystal structures for the same
compound. Different polymorphs will have different physical properties, such as
solubility and dissolution rate. The early stage of ...
Rheology of dense granular materials
Granular materials are frequently encountered in our daily lives and are widely used in several industrial processes. Characterising the flow of these materials has always proved challenging due to the lack of simple ...
