The present thesis is solely concerned with the development and analyses of mathematical
models to understand traffic flow dynamics. We adopt the lattice hydrodynamic approach
to model traffic phenomena, in which space ...
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 ...
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 ...
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, ...
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 ...
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 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 ...
The development of chemosensors for the identification and quantification of important
physiological and environmental analytes are of considerable importance. The search is
focused for the high sensitivity, selectivity ...
Chapter 1: Introduction
Heterocyclic or carbocyclic rings are common scaffolds found in the natural products and
bioactive molecules. Due to the importance of these bioactive molecules, organic chemists
are involved in ...
Transport in porous media has remarkably influenced the propagation of fluids in a variety of
chemical as well as physical systems. This thesis is primarily concerned with the mathematical
modelling of the flow of miscible ...
