A Methodology To Recover Unstable Aircraft From Post Stall Regimes: Design And Analysis
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-07-26)This thesis deals with high angle of attack behaviour of a generic delta wing model aircraft. A high angle of attack wind tunnel database has been generated for this aircraft and based upon the bifurcation analysis of the ... -
Low Reynolds Number Airfoil Aerodynamics
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-07-21)In this thesis we describe the development of Reynolds- averaged Navier Stokes code for the flow past two- dimensional configuration. Particularly, emphasis has been laid on the study of low Reynolds number airfoil ... -
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 ... -
A High-Resolution Procedure For Euler And Navier-Stokes Computations On Unstructured Grids
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-07-20)A finite-volume procedure, comprising a gradient-reconstruction technique and a multidimensional limiter, has been proposed for upwind algorithms on unstructured grids. The high-resolution strategy, with its inherent ... -
Distributed Computation With Communication Delays: Design And Analysis Of Load Distribution Strategies
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-11-09)Load distribution problems in distributed computing networks have attracted much attention in the literature. A major objective in these studies is to distribute the processing load so as to minimize the time of processing ... -
Application Of High Frequency Natural Resonances Extracted From Electromagnetic Scattering Response For Discrimination Of Radar Targets With Minor Variations
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-10-25)Radars, as the name suggests, were traditionally used for Radio Detection and Ranging. Nevertheless, advances in high resolution electromagnetic simulations, Ultra Wide-Band sources, signal processing and computer technologies ... -
Experimental And Computational Investigations Of Underexpanded Jets From Elliptical Sonic Nozzles
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-10-25)Three dimensional nozzles and jet flows have attracted the attention of many researchers due to their potential application to many practical devices. Rectangular nozzles are considered for short/vertical take off and ... -
Autonomous Orbit Estimation For Near Earth Satellites Using Horizon Scanners
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-10-20)Autonomous navigation is the determination of satellites position and velocity vectors onboard the satellite, using the measurements available onboard. The orbital information of a satellite needs to be obtained to support ... -
Development and Application of Kinetic Meshless Methods for Euler Equations
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-10-17)Meshless methods are a relatively new class of schemes for the numerical solution of partial differential equations. Their special characteristic is that they do not require a mesh but only need a distribution of points ... -
Turbulent Near Wake Behind An Infinitely Yawed Flat Plate
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-09-20)Near wake is the region of wake flow just behind the trailing edge of the body where the flow is strongly influenced by the upstream flow conditions and also perhaps by the characteristics of the body. The present work ... -
An Autonomous Guidance Scheme For Orbital Rendezvous
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-07-15)The word 'rendezvous' implies a pre-arranged meeting between two entities for a specific purpose. This term is used in the study of spacecraft operations, to describe a set of maneuvers performed by two spacecraft in order ... -
On The Reduction Of Drag Of a Sphere By Natural Ventilation
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-07-08)The problem of bluff body flows and the drag associated with them has been the subject of numerous investigations in the literature. In the two-dimensional case, the flow past a circular cylinder has been most widely studied ... -
NEW PERSPECTIVES FOR ANALYZING THE BREAKUP, ENVIRONMENT, EVOLUTION, COLLISION RISK AND REENTRY OF SPACE DEBRIS OBJECTS
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-03-10)In the space surrounding the earth there are two major regions where orbital debris causes concern. They are the Low Earth Orbits (LEO) up to about 2000 km, and Geosynchronous Orbits (GEO) at an altitude of around 36000 ... -
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 ...
