Development of Cryocooler Based High Performance Cryosorption Pump
The aim of this work is to develop high performance cryosorption (or cryoadsorption) pumps specifically for fusion applications. An actual cryopump for the above application will use the supercritical liquid helium flow ... -
From collective relaxation phenomena to phase separation in binary mixtures and some contributions to the hydration dynamics in the vicinity of biologically active molecules
The thesis presents detailed results of theoretical analyses based on extensive computer simulation studies with an aim to explore, quantify whenever possible, and understand the collective excitations, relaxation processes ... -
Platinum(II)-BODIPY Conjugates for Organelle Targeted Photodynamic Therapy in Red Light
The serendipitous discovery of Cisplatin (CP, Peyrone's chloride) as an anticancer agent in 1965 by Barnett Rosenberg led to the evolution of other platinum-based anticancer drugs, namely, Carboplatin in 1989 and Oxaliplatin ... -
Tenfold Classification for Interacting Fermions and Relation with Homogeneous Spaces
Topological classifi cation of topological insulator superconductor, various quantum Hall states are probably the most discussed topic in theoretical quantum condensed matter community as well as many mathematicians ... -
Characterizing Patenting in an Indian University System: A Case Study
University patenting reflects on the strength of a nation’s innovation in basic research and ability to seed innovation in industry. Despite the growing support from the government for public funded universities to patent ... -
Liquid Jet in Swirling Cross Flow
Liquid jets in cross flows (JICF) have been an important part of spray research in the last few decades owing to the wide spectrum of applications ranging from agricultural sprays to aircraft gas turbine engines. However, ... -
Climate-Growth Relationships of West Himalayan Fir (Abies pindrow) along an Altitudinal Gradient in Northwestern Himalaya
Climate change which includes an increase in temperature, changes in precipitation, retreating of glaciers, has a significant impact on ecosystem dynamics and the social communities. High mountains around the globe are ... -
Biochemical and functional characterisation of cyclic AMP-binding, universal stress proteins from mycobacteria
The genus Mycobacterium harbours several pathogenic species, including M. tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis, which alone is responsible for nearly 1.3 million deaths globally every year. Understanding the ... -
An Evaluation of the Mechanical Behavior of some new High Temperature Materials
Two new high-temperature alloy systems have been discovered recently at the Indian Institute of Science, which form the basis of this thesis. The first alloy system is an Intermetallic-Intermetallic eutectic composite ... -
Regulation of Hepatitis C Virus life-cycle by lncRNA HULC: crosstalk with other host factors
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a positive sense single-stranded RNA virus. It belongs to the family Flaviviridae and the genus hepacivirus. Following the receptor-mediated endocytosis, HCV genome is released into the cytoplasm, ... -
Development of an efficient domain decomposition algorithm for solving large stochastic mechanics problems
With the growth of computational resources available, demand on the accuracy and speed of simulation is steeply increasing. Accordingly, accounting for the variabilities in the simulations plays a pivotal role in taking ... -
Design of Novel Protocols for Chiral Analysis and Exploring Hydrogen Bond Directed Conformations
The research work reported in this thesis is focused on the chiral analysis and exploring hydrogen bonding. In chiral analysis, the study is aimed at the introduction of new versatile chiral solvating agents (CSA) and also ... -
Design and Analysis of Full-duplex Systems for Next-generation Wireless Communication Systems
To cater to the ever-growing demand for higher data rates, cellular networks and wireless local area networks (WLANs) need to adopt innovative technologies. Full-duplex (FD) is one such technology that promises to double ... -
