Dynamics of Glass-Forming Liquids and Shear-Induced Grain Growth in Dense Colloidal Suspensions
(2018-06-19)The work presented in this doctoral thesis employs colloidal suspensions to explore key open problems in condensed matter physics. Colloidal suspensions, along with gels, polymers, emulsions and liquid crystals belong to ... -
Dynamics of Spiral and Scroll Waves in a Mathematical Model for Human-Ventricular Tissue : The Effects of Fibroblasts, Early-after depolarization, and Heterogeneities
(2018-07-09)This thesis is devoted to the study of the dynamics of spiral and scroll waves in a mathematical model for cardiac tissue. We study the effects of the presence of heterogeneities on electrical-wave dynamics. The heterogeneities ... -
Dynamics of Warps and Lopsidedness in Spiral Galaxies

Dynamics, Order And Fluctuations In Active Nematics : Numerical And Theoretical Studies
(2010-08-24)In this thesis we studied theoretically and numerically dynamics, order and fluctuations in two dimensional active matter with specific reference to the nematic phase in collections of self-driven particles.The aim is to ... -
Dynamo Action in Rotating and Shearing Flows
Magnetic fields are omnipresent in universe. They play important role in the formation of stars, galaxies and the accretion onto compact objects and the collimation of the relativistic jets of radio galaxies. It is intriguing ... -
Edge States and Effects of Disorder in Finite Graphene Sheets
The thesis endeavours to theoretically understand electronic properties of nite trapezoidal shaped graphene sheets, and understand zero energy edge states. The motivation for this thesis is recent experimental work at Low ... -
Effect of a fast flux line on the coherence of 3D transmon qubits
With the development of the science and technology, the quantum computers are becoming the possible key to reveal new breakthroughs. Unlike the classical computers, where we have classical bits (0or1), in quantum computation ... -
Effect of a QSO on its host galaxy
Various arguments and observations have led to a general belief that QSO phenomenon is a form of violent activity in the nuclei of galaxies. It is natural to expect that a powerful source of high energy radiation like a ... -
Effect of Antimony Doping in Iron Chalcogenides
(2017-11-27)This thesis is organized in to six chapters. The contents of each chapter are briefly summarized in the following sections. Chapter 1 introduces different Fe-based superconductors. Within a very short span of their ... -
Effect of As and Se substitution on the Phase Change properties of GeTe based alloys
Phase-change memory (PCM) is a key enabling technology for non-volatile electrical data storage at the nanometer scale. A PCM device consists of a small active volume of phase-change material between two electrodes. In ... -
Effect of external highfrequency fields on unbounded and bounded plasmas
It is widely recognised that the plasmas either in nature or in laboratory are bounded in one way or the other. In many situations, these plasmas are subjected to external oscillating fields such as laser?produced plasma ... -
Effects of disorder on interacting fermionic systems in one dimension
The work begins with constructing an XXX matrix whose diagonal elements represent the momenta of a classical NNN-particle system, while off-diagonal elements are odd functions of coordinates. Summing over rows of this ... -
Effects Of Disorder On Physical Properties Of Selected Transition Metal Oxides
(2013-02-14)Disorder in materials often brings in new and exotic physical properties along with it. It is thus very important to study different kinds of disorder and their implications on various material properties. In this thesis, ... -
Effects Of Spin Polarization And Spatial Confinement On Optical Properties Of Bulk Semiconductors And Doped Quantum Wells
(2010-04-06)We correlated experimental results with theoretical estimations of the dielectric function ε(ω) in two contexts: the effect of an electric field in quantum wells and that of the spin polarization of an interacting electron-hole ... -
Effects of Strong Electron-Electron Correlations on Band Insulators in Equilibrium and Non-Equilibrium
In this thesis, several aspects of correlation effects in band insulators that were hitherto not addressed, both in equilibrium and non-equilibrium, are studied using the Ionic Hubbard model (IHM) at half-filling and ... -
Elasticity And Structural Phase Transitions Of Nanoscale Objects
(2015-12-14)Elastic properties of carbon nanotubes (CNT), boron nitride nanotubes (BNNT), double stranded DNA (dsDNA), paranemic-juxtapose crossover (PX-JX) DNA and dendrimer bound DNA are discussed in this thesis. Structural phase ... -
Electric, Magnetic and Magnetocaloric Studies of Magnetoelectric GdMnO3 and Gd0.5Sr0.5MnO3 Single Crystals
(2018-05-10)After the prediction of magnetoelectric effect in Cr2O3, in early 1960's, D. Asrov became the first to experimentally verify this phenomenon. After the pioneering work on magnetoelectric materials in 1960's and 1970's, the ... -
Electrical And Magnetic Properties Of Polyvinylchloride - Amorphous Carbon / Iron Carbide Nanoparticle Comosites
(2009-05-18)The UV-Visible spectra of a-C composites and nano composites have provided a very useful information about the electronic states and band structure. The UV-Visible spectra of a-C as well as nanoparticle are qualitatively ... -
Electrical and spectroscopic investigations of phase transitions in ferroelectric TAAP and DTAAP
(1) TAAP and DTAAP show pronounced anomalies in dielectric constant at TcT_cTc? and follow Curie–Weiss law in both ferro? and paraelectric phases. (2) The dielectric constant and coercive field values of TAAP depend on the ...
