Analysis of Fracture Processes in Steel Fibre Reinforced Cementitious Composites using Acoustic Emission Testing
Plain concrete has low tensile strength. Steel fibre reinforced concrete (SFRC) is an alternative to plain concrete. One of the major reasons of using the SFRC is due to its high tensile strength. The fracture process ... -
Analysis of Laterally Loaded Piles in Clayey Soils with Sloping Ground
In the present study, a small scale 1-g model test has been developed in the laboratory to study the behaviour of a long flexible single pile embedded in a slope of soft clay with different slope angles and L/D ratios, and ... -
Analysis Of Precipitation Controls On Hydrochemistry Of A Groundwater System : Application To Upper Cauvery Basin : South India
(2011-01-10)Groundwater chemistry is a function of recharge and the input chemistry of the rain, which gets transformed as it moves through the soil matrix. Apart from mineral transformations, anthropogenic activities are other external ... -
Analysis Of Solute Transport In Porous Media For Nonreactive And Sorbing Solutes Using Hybrid FCT Model
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-07-06)The thesis deals with the numerical modeling of nonreactive and nonlinearly sorbing solutes in groundwater and analysis of the effect of heterogeneity resulting from spatial variation of physical and chemical parameters ... -
Analytical and Numerical Modeling for Heat Transport in a Geothermal Reservoir due to Cold Water Injection
(2018-01-09)Geothermal energy is the energy naturally present inside the earth crust. When a large volume of hot water and steam is trapped in subsurface porous and permeable rock structure and a convective circulating current is set ... -
Analytical Models For Stress-Strain Response Of Fiber-Reinforced Soil And Municipal Solid Waste
(2011-04-01)The present thesis proposes model for the analyses of stress-strain response of fiber reinforced soil and municipal solid waste (MSW). The concept of reinforcing soils by introducing tension resisting elements such as ... -
Analytical Response Sensitivity Using Hybrid Finite Elements

Analyzing Inter-modal Competition Between High Speed Rail and Conventional Transport Modes in Indian Context
Indian Railway provides an important mode of public transport in India. This is the most commonly used and cost effective long-distance transport system of the country. Indian Railways has played an immense role in ... -
Application Of Polynomial Reproducing Schemes To Nonlinear Mechanics
(2011-03-15)The application of polynomial reproducing methods has been explored in the context of linear and non linear problems. Of specific interest is the application of a recently developed reproducing scheme, referred to as the ... -
An Application of Resonant Column along with Bender Elements Tests for Assessing Dynamic Properties and Liquefaction Potential of Sand
For determining the response of foundation soils subjected to different kinds of vibrations emerging from (i) an occurrence of an earthquake, (ii) movements of trains over railways tracks, (iii) running of vehicles over ... -
Approaches to Regional Analysis of Hydro-Meteorological Processes and Extremes
Regional analysis of hydrometeorological variables (e.g., evapotranspiration, precipitation), hydrological processes (e.g., runoff), and their extremes (e.g., drought, floods) is essential for various applications. The ... -
Assessment and Monitoring Of Hydrometeorological Variables And Extreme Conditions for Present and Future Climate Change Scenarios
Monitoring and assessment of Hydrological/hydrometeorological Variables (HVs) like streamflow, soil moisture, precipitation, and temperature are essential for various applications such as prediction/forecasting of natural ... -
Assessment of Leachate Characteristics and Geotechnical Properties of Municipal Solid Waste Landfill
(2018-01-04)Solid Waste Management is one of the essential services provided by local bodies to keep the urban areas clean. Often it is poorly rendered as it is unscientific, out-dated and inefficient. With the rapid increase in ... -
Assessment Of Seismic Hazard With Local Site Effects : Deterministic And Probabilistic Approaches
(2013-04-26)Many researchers have pointed out that the accumulation of strain energy in the Penninsular Indian Shield region may lead to earthquakes of significant magnitude(Srinivasan and Sreenivas, 1977; Valdiya, 1998; Purnachandra ... -
At-site and Multisite Probabilistic Forecasting of Streamflow
Streamflow forecasts are very useful for a variety of applications such as flood warning, reservoir operation and water resources planning and management, especially in countries like India where streamflow can be highly ... -
Attenuation Characteristics and Seismicity Analysis of Himalayan Region with Linear Joint Time-frequency Analysis Techniques
About 59% of the land area of the Indian subcontinent has high chances of moderate to severe earthquakes, of which the Himalayas are the most seismically active. Regardless of the high seismic activity, the seismic network ...
