Studies for Design of Layered Ceramic Armour Inspired by Seashells
(2018-06-26)Pearly layers in seashells, also known as nacreous layers, are reported to be three orders of magnitude tougher than their primary constituent, aragonite. Their high toughness is attributed to a particular structure of ... -
A Study of Two Problems in Nonlinear Dynamics Using the Method of Multiple Scales
(2018-08-13)This thesis deals with the study of two problems in the area of nonlinear dynamics using the method of multiple scales. Accordingly, it consists of two parts. In the first part of the thesis, we explore the asymptotic ... -
Thermal Performance of Various Roof Elements Under Different Weather Conditions
(2018-05-14)Beside the point of whether the country is developed or underdeveloped, energy crisis is a common scene all over the world. In order to balance energy supply and demand, either one has to increase the supply or decrease ... -
Thermodynamics of Distributed Solar Thermal Power Systems with Storage
(2018-08-11)Distributed power generation through renewable sources of energy has the potential of meeting the challenge of providing electricity access to the off-grid population, estimated to be around 1.2 billion residing across the ... -
Transition and Acoustic Response of Vortex Breakdown Modes in Unconfined Coaxial Swirling Flow and Flame
(2018-07-19)The efficient and enhanced mixing of heat and incoming reactants is achieved in modern gas turbine systems by employing swirling flows. This is realized by a low velocity region (internal recirculation zone -IRZ) zone ...
