Ground Displacements and Stresses around Single and Twin Tunnels using Analytical and Numerical Approaches
Significant emphasis is given nowadays on exploring underground space- in the form of
tunnels- for (i) fast commuting in urban areas, (ii) connectivity to remote areas under different
weather conditions, (iii) military ...
Bioinspiration for battling bacteria: Nature inspired high aspect ratio nanostructures for new age antibacterial surfaces
Bacterial colonization and biofilm formation on abiotic surfaces effectuate corrosion,
fermentation, and infection resulting in tremendous economic and human losses each year.
Aggravating the situation, new multi-drug ...
High-Throughput Bending Tests for Investigating Creep Behavior Affected by Structural and Microstructural Inhomogeneities
The bending of cantilevers is an alternate technique for the extraction of power-law creep parameters of materials. It has been shown earlier that in homogeneous systems showing tension-compression symmetry, digital image ...
Damping of magnetic-Coriolis waves with imposed magnetic field orthogonal to the axis of rotation
Small-scale columnar structures (<10 km radius) in Earth's outer core result from inertial waves. In highly conducting fluid, magnetic field behaviour resembles stretched elastic strings and transmits disturbances as Alfvén ...
Hyperspectral remote sensing for soil property estimation in the context of spectral mixtures
The implementation of sustainable agricultural, hydrological, and environmental management entails an improved understanding of soil properties and its conditions at increasingly finer resolutions. In this context, the ...
Impact Of Large-Scale Coupled Atmospheric-Oceanic Circulation On Hydrologic Variability And Uncertainty Through Hydroclimatic Teleconnection
(2010-06-14)
In the recent scenario of climate change, the natural variability and uncertainty associated with the hydrologic variables is of great concern to the community. This thesis opens up a new area of multi-disciplinary research. ...
Predictability of Nonstationary Time Series using Wavelet and Empirical Mode Decomposition Based ARMA Models
(2018-04-06)
The idea of time series forecasting techniques is that the past has certain information about future. So, the question of how the information is encoded in the past can be interpreted and later used to extrapolate events ...
Extremes of Indian Summer Monsoon Rainfall and Equatorial Indian Ocean Oscillation
Our studies suggest that the equatorial Indian Ocean Oscillation, which is the atmospheric component of Indian Ocean Dipole, is as important as El Nino and Southern Oscillation for the interannual variation of Indian Summer ...
Investigations on the Use of Mems-imu Sensors for Manual 2D and 3D Ultrasound Imaging
Ultrasound imaging is a safe medical imaging technique with many applications in medical diagnostics. MEMS-IMUs being small-size, low-cost, low-power devices suitable for accurate orientation estimation, the chances of ...
Microstructure-Corrosion Property Correlation in Electrodeposited Sn and Cu Based Coating Systems
Conventional metallic coatings are widely used for protection against corrosion. This study investigates the correlation between microstructure and corrosion properties in SnCr and CuCr electrodeposited coatings. The wide ...
