Active Vibration Control Synthesis Using Viscoelastic Damping Phenomena
(2011-07-12)
In this thesis, a new method is followed to design an active control system which imparts viscoelastic phenomenological damping in an elastic structure. Properties of a hypothetical viscoelastic system are used to design ...
Time Scale Separated Nonlinear Partial Integrated Guidance And Control Of Endo-Atmospheric Interceptors
(2011-03-17)
To address the concern of classical guidance and control designs (where guidance and control loops are designed separately in an “outer loop – inner loop” structure), integrated guidance and control (IGC) ideas have been ...
Collision Avoidance And Coalition Formation Of Multiple Unmanned Aerial Vechicles In High Density Traffic Environments
(2014-08-07)
This thesis addresses the problems of collision avoidance and coalition formation of multiple UAVs in high density traffic environments, proposes simple and efficient algorithms as solutions, and discusses their applications ...
Experimental Study On The Impact Of Water Drops On Groove-Textured Surfaces
(2014-09-08)
The interaction of a liquid drop with a solid surface is being actively studied to understand practically encountered scenarios such as the impact of fuel spray droplets onto the walls of engine combustion chamber, the ...
Micro-Blast Waves
(2014-09-02)
The near field blast–wave propagation dynamics has been a subject of intense research in recent past. Since experiments on a large scale are difficult to carry out, focus has been directed towards recreating these blast ...
Energy Separation And Lox Separation Studies In Vortex Tubes
(2014-11-24)
Vortex Tube (VT) is a simple device having no moving mechanical parts, in which compressed gas at high pressure is injected through one or more tangential nozzles into a vortex chamber resulting in the separation of the ...
Dynamics Of Water Drops Impacting Onto The Junction Of Dual-Textured Substrates Comprising Hydrophobic And Hydrophilic Portions
(2014-11-24)
The research topic of liquid drop interaction with solid surfaces is being actively pursued to gain in-depth understanding of several practical cases such as the impingement of fuel spray droplets on surfaces like combustion ...
