Heterocyclic rings like benzimidazole/benzothiazole act as a pharmacore in the structure
of many clinically useful chemotherapeutic agents and is critical precursor for generating
new derivatives with a wide spectrum of ...
The alcohols, amines and nitro compounds, both aromatic and aliphatic are ubiquitous in
various pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, natural products and dyes. They play a very
significant role in constructing different drug ...
The objective of this thesis is to explore the effects of the quantum coherence
towards the precise control of the manipulation of the interaction between the atomic
or molecular systems and the electromagnetic fields. ...
Insulation design of High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) cables at high voltages is quite
challenging. At higher electric fields peculiar space charge formation might take place in
polymeric insulation. One of the effects ...
Miscible displacement flows in porous media are of significant importance in many
industrial, environmental, and engineering applications, such as enhanced oil recovery,
chromatography separation, CO2 sequestration, ...
The aim of our research work presented in this thesis is on the studies of edge effects
on electronic band structure of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs). Theoretical studies on
GNRs predict that band gaps depend upon its width ...
Inspired by the growing scientific needs of connectivity in today’s world, this thesis
has primarily focused on understanding the complexities in two-channel transport
systems. A large number of the real-world processes ...
Cancer is the second most leading cause of deaths in the world after heart disease.
Treatment strategy for cancer varies as per the type and origin of the disease. Widely used
standard cancer treatment modalities are ...
In recent decades, InfraRed Thermography (IRT) for Thermal Non-Destructive Testing &
Evaluation (TNDT&E) has encountered wide spread applications for the characterization
of various solid materials due to its non-contact, ...
The present thesis mainly concentrates on the problems of determining the structure of the
unit groups and unitary subgroups of finite modular group algebras. We obtain the structure
of the unit group and the unitary ...
Collagen is the most abundant proteins in soft and hard tissues of the mammals,
and collagen of several types form different hierarchy levels of these tissues by assembling
at various length scales. Due to lack of ...
Unknotting number is an invariant and defined for a knot/link as the minimum number of
crossing changes required to unknot a knot over all possible diagrams of knot. Unknotting
numbers for torus knots and links are well ...
Fault diagnosis of an electro-mechanical system (EMS) has been a real challenge
for the engineers. For increasing operational reliability and machine availability, it
becomes essential to monitor the operation of an ...
Fireside degradation of boiler tubes in coal-fired water tube boilers is a combined
effect of erosion as well as corrosion. The corrosion products (oxides and sulfides) are
formed on boiler tubes due to chemical reactions ...
The
uid displacement in a porous medium applies to a wide variety of industrial
and environmental processes, for example, oil recovery is enhanced by displacing the
oil with injected water, or rainwater penetrates into ...
This thesis is aimed at applying the concept of parameter retrieval by optimization
techniques to a few engineering systems involving heat and mass transfer. For this, two
heat transfer systems involving different types ...
Photocatalysis has emerged as one of the most promising technologies and represents a
easy way to utilize the energy of natural sunlight and it can provide viable solutions for
environmental remediation and alternative ...
Polymer derived metal matrix composites (P-MMCs) represent a new paradigm shift in the
processing of in-situ metal matrix composites. The polymer precursor can be infused into
molten metal by a stir-casting method. The ...
The key objective of this thesis is to study regime shift in various bistable biological
systems. Many natural systems can undergo sudden, large and often irreversible
changes under the influence of small stochastic ...
