Analysis Of Dense Sheared Granular Flows
(2011-01-27)A granular material is a collection of discrete, solid particles of macroscopic size dispersed in an interstitial fluid, in which the fluid has an insignificant effect on the particle dynamics. Because they exhibit fascinating ... -
Investigations Of Polymer Grafted Lipid Bilayers Using Dissipative Particle Dynamics
(2011-01-25)Lipid molecules are amphiphilic in nature consisting of a hydrophilic head group and hydrophobic hydrocarbon tails. The lipid bilayer consists of two layers of lipid molecules arranged with their hydrophobic tails facing ... -
Methane Storage In Activated Carbon Nanostructures : A Combined Density Functional And Monte Carlo Study
(2011-08-04)Natural gas is stored as compressed natural gas (CNG) in heavy steel cylinders under pressures of 200-250 atm. However, such a method of storage has certain disadvantages which include multistage compression costs, limited ... -
Particle Dynamics In A Turbulent Particle-Gas Suspension At High Stokes Number
(2010-12-08)Particle laden turbulent flows find applications in many industrial processes such as energy conversion, air pollution control etc. In these types of flows, there are strong coupling between the turbulent fluctuations in ... -
Structure And Dynamics Of Interfacial And Confined Water
(2011-03-28)Understanding the structure and dynamics of molecularly thin films or the state of water confined to nanoscale dimensions is an active field of research and has wide applications in areas ranging from biology to geology. ...
