Novel Finite Element Formulations For Dynamics Of Acoustic Fluids
(2013-05-02)Fluid-structure interaction (FSI) as the name suggests, is the study of dynamic interaction of both fluid and structure motions. Fluid-structure interaction exists in almost all engineering and science fields. Moreover, ... -
Novel, Robust and Accurate Central Solvers for Real, Dense and Multicomponent Gases
The nonlinear convection terms in the governing equations of inviscid compressible fluid flows are nontrivial for modelling and numerical simulation. The traditional Riemann solvers, which are strongly dependent on the ... -
Numerical Simulation Of Nocturnal Temperature Profiles

Numerical Simulations Of Axisymmetric Near Wakes At High Reynolds Numbers
(2009-03-13)The flow past the needle of a Pelton turbine injector is an axisymmetric wake embedded in a round jet. The wake does not fully relax to yield a uniform velocity jet due to the short distance between ... -
Numerical solution of non-classical beam and plate theories using di erential quadrature method
For effcient design of the nano/micro scale structural systems, detailed analysis and through understanding of size-dependent mechanical behaviour at nano/micro scale is very critical. Various approaches have been used ... -
Numerical Study of Accelerating Turbulent Boundary Layers
This thesis focuses on the prediction of favourable pressure gradient turbulent boundary layer flows. Particularly, the focus is on mild favourable pressure gradient turbulent boundary layers and relaminarising turbulent ... -
A Numerical Study of Changes to Flow Organization and their Prognostic Measures
(2018-05-23)Flow induced self-oscillations cause acoustic pressure oscillations of large amplitude in pipe flows. If Reynolds number is treated as a parameter, these floinduced oscillations occur only at discrete and critical values ... -
Numerical Study Of Low Mach Number Conjugate Natural Convection And Radiation In A Vertical Annulus
(2010-07-23)The problem of low Mach number (non-Boussin´esq) conjugate laminar natural convection combined with surface radiation in a vertical annulus with a centrally located vertical heat generating rod is studied numerically, ... -
A Numerical Study On Absolute Instability Of Low Density Jets
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-07-20)A spectacular instability has been observed in low density round jets when the density ratio of jet fluid to ambient fluid falls below a threshold of approximately 0.6. This phenomenon has been observed in non-buoyant jets ... -
Odor Source Localization Using Swarm Robotics
(2010-06-02)Locating an odor source in a turbulent environment, an instinctive behavior of insects such as moths, is a nontrivial task in robotics. Robots equipped with odor sensors find it difficult to locate the odor source due to the ... -
On Flow Physics of Spinning Samaras
A particular form of winged seed (samara) dispersal technique adopted by nature uses autorotative (unpowered rotation of the wing generating thrust force against gravity) descent; for eg. in Maple and Mahagony trees. ... -
On late stages of transition in round jets
A round jet is one of the simplest canonical axisymmetric free shear flows that occur both in engineering applications and natural phenomena. A laminar-turbulent transition process is inherent to its development involving ... -
On Modeling Of Constrained Piezoelectric Thin Films For Structural Health Monitoring
(2010-01-01)The behaviour of a free-standing thin film differs from that of a film surface-bonded or embedded due to the boundary constraints. A general dearth of analytical models, in regard to prediction of the operational competence ... -
On the analysis of axially loaded Euler-Bernoulli beam using Galerkin, Fourier transform, and Lie symmetry approach
The beam with axial load is one of the fundamental models in the field of physics and engineering. The applications of this model span from a guitar string to the rotating blade of a helicopter. It has an important role ... -
On the Contribution of the Launch Platform towards Acoustic Environment of a Launch Vehicle at Lift-off
A launch vehicle experiences intense acoustic loading in the initial phase of its lift-off due to the noise generated by the rocket exhaust. This affects the launch vehicle structure in addition to sensitive payloads and ... -
On The Effect Of Material Uncertainty And Matrix Cracks On Smart Composite Plate
(2017-02-22)Recent developments show the applications of smart structure in different engineering fields. Smart structures can be used for shape and vibration control, structural health monitoring etc. Smart materials can be integrated ...
