Anomalous Translational And Reorientational Dynamics Of Single File Water
(2010-04-12)This thesis deals with several aspects of translational and reorientational dynamics of water molecules confined inside narrow carbon nanotubes. Water molecules confined in a non-polar, nanoscopic pore exhibit extremely ... -
Confinement, Coarsening And Nonequilibrium Fluctuations In Glassy And Yielding Systems
(2016-02-17)One of the most important and interesting unsolved problems of science is the nature of glassy dynamics and the glass transition. It is quite an old problem, and starting from the early20th century there have been many ... -
Fluid Flow And Electrochemical Bias Induced Effects In Carbon Nanotubes And Raman Studies On Iron Perovskites
(2011-09-30)This thesis is divided into two parts; the first part presents results on the effect of the flow of fluids and electrochemical bias on single walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT). Issues pertaining to the entry of water into the ... -
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 Study Of The Complex Dynamics Of Sheared Nematogenic Fluids
(2013-07-17)In this thesis, we have tried to explain the regular and irregular(chaotic) dynamics of worm like micellar solutions on applying shear, through a detailed study of the equation of motion of a nematic order parameter tensor ... -
Slow Dynamics In Complex Fluids : Confined Polymers And Soft Colloids
(2015-08-05)The thesis describes the study of slow dynamics of confined polymers and soft colloids. We study the finite size effect on the dynamics of glassy polymers using newly developed interfacial microrheology technique. ... -
