Resource Allocation for Natural Disasters using a Game-theoretic Framework
The occurrence of a severe natural disaster causes loss of life and destruction of properties. The overall criticality of the disaster depends on the nature of the disaster and the physical characteristics of the affected ... -
Solid-state planar micro-supercapacitors: materials interfaces, state-of-art electrode design and self-powered device
The demand for miniaturization of energy storage systems has accelerated the development of on-chip micro-power devices for integration into portable electronic devices. Micro-supercapacitors can suitably cater to the need ... -
Learning Filters, Filterbanks, Wavelets and Multiscale Representations
The problem of filter design is ubiquitous. Frequency selective filters are used in speech/audio processing, image analysis, convolutional neural networks for tasks such as denoising, deblurring/deconvolution, enhancement, ... -
Studies on Rotary Atomization
In rotary fuel injection systems, the fuel is atomized with the help of centrifugal force provided by the rotation of the injector. The rotational power can be directly provided by the shaft of a gas turbine, which can go ... -
Solution structures and interaction studies of mycobacterial MazEF6 toxin-antitoxin system
Toxin-Antitoxin (TA) systems are stress response systems found on plasmids and chromosomes of bacteria and archaea. They are involved in important functions such as plasmid maintenance, programmed cell death, persister ... -
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 ... -
Hyperspectral remote sensing for soil property estimation in the context of spectral mixtures
The implementation of sustainable agricultural, hydrological, and environmental management entails an improved understanding of soil properties and its conditions at increasingly finer resolutions. In this context, the ... -
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 ... -
