Flame Particle Tracking Analysis of Turbulence-Premixed Flame Interaction
This work describes the computational and theoretical developments made in the understanding of turbulence-premixed flame interaction, using both lean and rich H2-air mixtures, in a flow field of near-isotropic turbulence. ... -
Fluid-Elastic Interactions in Flutter And Flapping Wing Propulsion
(2017-10-06)This study seeks to understand the interplay of vorticity and elasto-dynamics that forms the basis for a fluttering flag and flapping wing propulsion, and factors that distinguish one from the other. The fluid dynamics is ... -
Flutter Identification and Aeroelastic Stability during Wake Penetration
Demonstration of utter stability over the design envelope and identi fication of safe ight envelope is a prerequisite for operational clearance of any new aircraft design. An important step involved in flight flutter ... -
Flutter Susceptibility Assessment of Airplanes in Sub-critical Regime using Ameliorated Flutter Margin and Neural Network Based Methods
(2018-02-17)As flight flutter testing on an airplane progresses to high dynamic pressures and high Mach number region, it becomes very difficult for engineers to predict the level of the remaining stability in a flutter-prone mode and ... -
From Particles to People: Vicsek-Inspired Behavioural Modelling Frameworks
In this thesis, we develop different modelling frameworks to capture the processes of opinion formation and disease spread. The common theme binding them is a nearest-neighbour-based interaction rule; while the closeness ... -
Fuel Drop Splashing on Heated Solid Surfaces
Droplet-wall interactions on heated surfaces are significantly encountered in applications such as fuel spray impingement in combustors and spray cooling. The present thesis is focused on the splashing of fuel drops on ... -
A Generalised Modelling of Piezoelectric Composite Shells and Plates using Variational Asymptotic Method
In several fields of engineering, researchers are actively pursuing the possibility to use smart materials such as piezoelectric composites in order to make the structure smart. Piezoelectric materials have the capability ... -
Genetic Programming Based Multicategory Pattern Classification
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-02-22)Nature has created complex biological structures that exhibit intelligent behaviour through an evolutionary process. Thus, intelligence and evolution are intimately connected. This has inspired evolutionary computation ... -
A Ghost Fluid Method for Modelling Liquid Jet Atomization
(2018-05-21)Liquid jet atomisation has a wide variety of application in areas such as injectors in automobile and launch vehicle combustors, spray painting, ink jet printing etc. Understanding physical mechanisms involved in the primary ... -
Glowworm Swarm Optimization : A Multimodal Function Optimization Paradigm With Applications To Multiple Signal Source Localization Tasks
(2009-05-05)Multimodal function optimization generally focuses on algorithms to find either a local optimum or the global optimum while avoiding local optima. However, there is another class of optimization problems which have the ... -
Guidance Laws for Engagement Time Control
(2017-12-16)Autonomous aerial vehicles like missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have attracted various military and civilian applications. The primary guidance objective of any autonomous vehicle is to reach the desired ... -
Guidance Laws For Impact Angle Constraints And Exo-Atmospheric Engagements
(2010-10-22)This thesis deals with development of guidance laws for advanced applications. Two class of guidance problems, namely, impact angle constrained guidance and pulsed guidance for exo-atmospheric engagements, are considered ... -
