Deciphering the role of outer membrane porins in the pathogenesis of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium
Porins are highly conserved barrel-shaped proteins bound to the bacterial outer membrane and involved in the selective transport of charged molecules across the membrane. They consist of parallel and anti-parallel β sheets ... -
Development of Solution Methodologies for Berth Allocation Problem with Discrete Berth Layout (DBL), Dynamic Arrival of Vessels (DAV), Deterministic Handling Time (DHT) of Vessels, Vessel Time Windows (VTW) and Vessel Eligibility Criteria (VEC)
The Container Terminal (CT) act as an important node in a supply chain industry that connects water and land for transportation of the containers carrying goods. A CT facilitates a vessel by allocating a berth for unloading ... -
Towards Design, Fabrication, Packaging, Integration, and Characterization of High-Performance MEMS Gyroscopes
MEMS vibratory gyroscopes are used to measure the angular rate of a body by sensing the Coriolis force induced motion of the sensing element vibrating in a rotating frame of reference. MEMS gyroscopes find use in a wide ... -
Experimental and Theoretical Investigations on High Voltage Polymeric Insulators
High Voltage Ceramic and glass Insulators have been widely used by various transmission and distribution utilities for several decades across the globe. Recently composite or silicone rubber insulators have evolved and ... -
Communication Overlapping Krylov Subspace Methods for Distributed Memory Systems
Many high performance computing applications in computational fluid dynamics, electromagnetics etc. need to solve a linear system of equations $Ax=b$. For linear systems where $A$ is generally large and sparse, Krylov ... -
Employing Arynes in Unique Multicomponent Reactions and a Strain-Release Ene Reaction
Arynes are highly reactive electrophilic intermediates, extensively used for synthesizing various benzo-fused heterocycles and 1,2-disubstituted benzenes. Among the numerous reactions of arynes, multicomponent coupling ... -
Auditory Timbre and Spatialisation: Signal Analysis and Perception of Source Widening
In this work, auditory perception of source widening is examined in the context of different source signal timbre. Perception of widening of source or auditory source width (ASW) arises in three cases: (i) In the presence ... -
Monte Carlo simulations of Electric Double Layer Capacitors with aqueous electrolytes
Electric double layer capacitors (EDLCs) also known as supercapacitors are a category of energy storage devices that are known for their remarkable power delivery (upto 1000KW/kg). The energy storage is through physical ... -
Effect of Stimulus Normalization and Visual Attention at multiple scales of Neural Integration
The effect of visual attention on neural signals has been extensively studied using various techniques such as macaque neurophysiology and human electro/magneto encephalogram (EEG/MEG). Depending on the technique, different ... -
Microscale mechanical behaviour of ceramic matrix composites considering processing e ects
The current work explores the phenomenon of microscale damage mechanism driven quasi- ductile behaviour of C/BN/SiC ceramic matrix composite (CMC) at the microscale focusing on process-microstructure-property correlations. ... -
Wireless Content Centric Networks: Cross Layer Designs for Queueing, Caching, Power Control and Beamforming
Ever increasing user base of social media platforms such as Facebook, Youtube and the Over-the-Top platforms such as Netflix, Prime Video etc., has increased the demand for High Definition Videos/Contents over the Mobile ... -
Substrate interrogation of the CRISPR-Cas12a endonuclease reveals an unexpected functional plasticity
Substrate interrogation of the CRISPR-Cas12a endonuclease reveals an unexpected functional plasticity Currently, Cas9 and Cas12a (also known as Cpf1) are the sole members of a large family of RNA-guided nucleases that ... -
Fast Methods for Modelling and Simulation of Fully Integrated Voltage Regulators in Microprocessors
Fully Integrated Voltage Regulators (FIVR) have been introduced in the latest generation of high-performance server microprocessors to improve the performance and power efficiency of the processors. FIVR is a switched ... -
Experimental study of the flow of granular media through a horizontal screw feeder system
A significant fraction of the materials handled in the chemical, food-processing, and pharmaceutical industries are particulate in nature. Screw feeder systems are often employed in such scenarios to achieve their bulk ... -
Mesonic screening mass at zero and finite chemical potential
The finite temperature analysis of QCD is challenging since perturbation theory is not applicable in that regime. A non-perturbative method like lattice QCD is thus required to obtain an estimate of the necessary observables. ... -
A study of extracellular matrix dynamics in epithelial cancer progression with a special focus on ovarian cancer spheroidogenesis
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is one of the most debilitating gynecological cancers in women worldwide due to its insidious symptoms. The predominant subtype of ovarian cancer: high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC), ... -
Towards the Development of MEMS g-Switches
Accelerometers are sensors that measure and record the acceleration of an object in motion. They typically contain spring and mass elements that are set into vibration upon any impressed acceleration. The characteristics ... -
Assessment and Monitoring Of Hydrometeorological Variables And Extreme Conditions for Present and Future Climate Change Scenarios
