Novel Diffraction Based Deflection Profiling For Microcantilever Sensor Technology
(2015-02-04)A novel optical diffraction based technique is proposed and demonstrated to measure deflections of the order of ~1nm in microcantilevers (MC) designed for sensing ultra-small forces of stress. The proposed method ... -
Novel Methods To Interrogate Fiber Bragg Grating Sensors
(2013-02-14)A novel detection technique to estimate the amount of chirp in fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) is proposed. This method is based on the fact that reflectivity at central wavelength of FBG reflection changes with strain/temperature ... -
Novel Micro fluidic Techniques for Point-of-Care Diagnostics
Point-of-care Diagnostics (POCD) is one of the rapidly growing areas of health-care sector that avails to the needs of the patient at the point-of-care. An ideal POCD device is required to be compact, portable, offer ... -
Novel Pathways for Beyond Standard Model Physics
In the light of discovering the Higgs boson and null results at the LHC, we look for new pathways for Beyond Standard Model Physics, which could accommodate at least one of the Standard Model shortcomings. (i) Unification ... -
Novel Spectral Processing Methods in NMR – Wavelet Transform and Pattern Based Analysis
NMR spectroscopy provides a variety of information leading to an understanding of the properties of different materials. To extract this information from the experiments, one needs to have noise and artifacts free spectra ... -
Novel Upwind and Central Schemes for Various Hyperbolic Systems
(2018-05-21)The class of hyperbolic conservation laws model the phenomena of non-linear wave propagation, including the presence and propagation of discontinuities and expansion waves. Such nonlinear systems can generate discontinuities ... -

Numerical Studies of Problems in Turbulence : 1) Fluid Films with Polymer Additives; 2) Fluid Films with Inertial and Elliptical Particles; 3) Scaled Vorticity Moments in Three- and Two-dimensional Turbulence
(2017-11-30)In this thesis we study a variety of problems in fluid turbulence, principally in two dimensions. A summary of the main results of our studies is given below; we indicate the Chapters in which we present these. In Chapter ... -
Numerical studies of shock oscillations and MRI turbulence in accretion
In this thesis, we study two different aspects of accretion flows- (i) quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) seen in the light curves of X-ray binaries as a possible consequence of shock oscillations, (ii) global 3D ideal ... -
Numerical Studies Of Slow Dynamics And Glass Transition In Model Liquids
(2009-12-16)An increase in the co-operativity in the motion of particles and a growth of a suitably defined dynamical correlation length seem to be generic features exhibited by all liquids upon supercooling. These features have been ... -
Numerical Studies of Spiral- and Scroll-wave Dynamics in Cardiac Tissue: (1) Spiral- and Scroll-Wave Turbulence; (2) Spiral- and Scroll-Wave dynamics in Anatomically and Physiologically realistic Mathematical Models for Canine and Human Ventricular Tissue
A summary of the main results of our studies is given below. In most of our work, we use three mathematical models for cardiac myocytes, namely, the Panfilov model, the Aliev-Panfilov model, and the Hund-Rudy-Dynamic ... -
