Understanding and modeling diffusion of information on social networks is a widely studied research problem. Diffusion models have evolved from simple epidemiological models to complex models which are based on network ...
The objective of this thesis is to explore different aspects of quantum phenomena in a mesoscopic systems in cavity optomechanical setups. In such a system, the optical and the mechanical degrees of freedom, the fundamental ...
Bone loss is a serious health problem which occurs due to metabolic bone disorders such as osteoporosis or bone/muscle disuse. Bone loss can be noticed in postmenopausal women, bedridden patients and physically challenged ...
With the advancement of technology the number of vehicles on road are increasing. Roads are more prone to traffic congestion which leads to accidents. It is important to monitor the traffic congestion at crossings for ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Tremendously increasing variations in the robotic applications has led to the
importance of customized changes preferred in the design of the robotic arms. Selection
and installation of a conventional robotic arm, for a ...
Cells are the basic building blocks of human life. Cell image analysis has gained
significant importance in the present era. Automatic image analysis is generally
a difficult problem due to the large variability and ...
Boundary value problems (BVPs) occur in a natural way while studying the scattering
of water waves as well as the fluid flow problems. The objective of the thesis is to solve
such BVPs by using the most appropriate ...
This thesis concerns with the timing and spectral studies of X-ray binaries that contain neutron
star as a compact object. We have studied both high and low magnetic field neutron stars in
binary systems.
In the case ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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. ...
