Structural Modeling And Analysis Of Insect Scale Flapping Wing
(2013-06-04)Micro Air Vehicles (MAVs) are defined as a class of vehicles with their larger dimension not exceeding 15 cm and weighing 100 gm. The three main approaches for providing lift for such vehicles are through fixed, rotating ... -
Structural Modeling and Damage Detection in a Non-Deterministic Framework
(2018-05-08)Composite structures are extremely useful for aerospace, automotive, marine and civil applications due to their very high specific structural properties. These structures are subjected to severe dynamic loading in their ... -
Structural sensitivity of the precessing vortex core instability in swirled jets
This thesis performs an LES study of the flow through a swirling nozzle. The nozzle has one single stream with swirl being generated by vanes mounted on an axially aligned centrebody. The end face of the centrebody ... -
Structure Of Sink Flow Boundary Layers
(2011-03-17)The work reported in this thesis is an experimental and theoretical investigation of the so-called sink flow boundary layers. These are two-dimensional (in the mean), favourable-pressure-gradient (FPG) boundary layer flows ... -
Structure of Turbulent, Swirling Round Jets
The present study deals with the numerical analysis of the effect of the swirl in the self-preservation region of the turbulent round jet. However, a large number of literature exists for the analysis of near-exit regions—very ... -
Studies On Impinging-Jet Atomizers
(2009-05-06)Characteristics of impinging-jet atomizers in the context of application in liquid propulsion systems are studied in this thesis. A review of past studies on impinging jets revealed the necessity of a correlation in terms ... -
Studies on Non-Destructive Evaluation of Friction Stir Weld Discontinuities with Probability of Detection
Friction stir welding(FSW) is a solid-state metal joining process which is currently being considered for joining of aerospace components. The zones associated with FSW are distinctly different from the fusion weld and ... -
Studies On Shock Wave Attenuation In Liquids
(2013-06-11)The attenuation mechanism of shock waves of arbitrary strength propagating in air has been reasonably well understood. On the other hand, very little is known about the precise mechanism of shock wave attenuation and energy ... -
Studies On The Combustion And Gasification Of Concentrated Distillery Effluent
(Indian Institute of Science, 2007-04-24)The need for effective disposal of huge volumes of industrial waste is becoming more challenging due to expected imposition of stringent pollution control regulations in the near future. Thermochemical conversion, particularly ... -
Studies on the Effects of Carbon Nanotubes on Mechanical Properties of Bisphenol E Cyanate Ester/Epoxy Based Resin Systems and CFRP Composites
(2018-02-28)The search and research for high performance materials for aerospace applications is a continuous evolving process. Among several fibre reinforced polymers, carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) is well known for its high ... -
Studies on Vortex Breakdown in a Closed Cylinder with a Rotating Endwall
(2018-01-09)Swirling flows abound in nature and numerous engineering applications. Under conditions which are not completely understood, the swirling cores could undergo a sudden enlargement of their vortex core, leading to a ’vortex ... -
A Study Of A Vortex Particle Method For Vortex Breakdown Phenomena
(2010-07-06)Vortex breakdown is an important phenomenon observed in swirling flows involving the development of a stagnation point on the axis of the vortex followed by a region of recirculation when the swirl increases beyond a ... -
Study of Non-Equilibrium Flow Behind Normal Shock
(2017-12-10)Normal shock problems in high enthalpy flows are of special interests to aerodynamicists and fluid dynamicists. When the shock Mach number become hypersonic and increasing further, the gas passing through the shock is ... -
A Study of the Characteristics of Gas-On-Liquid Impinging Injectors
(2018-02-18)The work presented here pertains to investigations on gas-on-liquid type of impinging injectors with a generic approach with prospective applications in several areas, and at places with particular emphasis on cryogenic ... -
A Study On Boundary Layer Transition Induced By Large Freestream Disturbances
(2013-06-12)The initial slow viscous growth of the Tollmein-Schlichting wave in a canonical boundary layer transition is absent in bypass and wake-induced transitions. Although there have been a great deal of studies pertaining to ...
