The Momentum Construction Method for Higher Extremal Kähler and Conical Higher cscK Metrics
This thesis consists of two parts. In both the parts we study two new notions of canonical K\"ahler metrics on compact K\"ahler manifolds which were introduced by Pingali, viz. `higher extremal K\"ahler metric' and ... -
Interfacial Phase Change Phenomenon during Crystallization and Boiling in Droplets
Two-phase interaction of droplets on heated substrates is ubiquitous and has applications in power plants, industrial cooling, and particle drying. At temperatures significantly higher than the saturation temperature of ... -
A divide-and-conquer distance geometry method to model protein structures from NMR spectroscopy
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy provides insights into the dynamic behavior of proteins in solution, eliminating the need for crystallization. NMR experiments can spatially probe nuclei within 6 Angstroms of ... -
Deformation-based Topological Lattices and their Edge States
Topological elastic metamaterials (TEMs) represent a novel class of elastic materials known for their unique ability to localize vibration energy at boundaries, maintaining robustness against system disorders. These ... -
Development of a Structural Model with Prioritizing and Ranking of Vital Enablers for Successful Adoption of Lean Production System in Indian SME

Recent years have witnessed a significant rise in the footprint of electronics in variety of fields like healthcare, energy harvesting, human computer interaction etc., due to the discovery of new materials and better ... -
Investigation of the stress-induced translatome of matrix-deprived cancer cells
Cancer remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide, in spite of all the ongoing research in the field of oncology. While there have been some breakthroughs in the past 50 years, metastatic tumors remain the bane ... -
Non-intrusive reduced order modeling of dynamical systems with large stochastic dimensions
The work done in this thesis falls under the broad category of computational mechanics. This thesis addresses the computational challenge of high-dimensional regression and interpolation within the framework of a proper ... -
Integrating Coarse Semantic Information with Deep Image Representations for Object Localization, Model Generalization and Efficient Training
Coarse semantic features are abstract descriptors capturing broad semantic information in an image, including scene labels, crude contextual relationships between objects in the scene, or even objects described using ... -
Dynamically isotropic Gough-Stewart platform for micro-vibration isolation in spacecraft
Rotating components such as reaction wheels and momentum wheels on spacecraft generate micro-vibrations up to 250 Hz during on-orbit operations. While the use of Gough-Stewart Platforms (GSPs) for six degrees of freedom ... -
