The contents of this thesis have been divided into five chapters based on the results of experimental works performed during the complete course of the research period. The introductory chapter of the thesis presents an ...
This thesis proposes the solar assisted smart public transportation system (SPTS) and it’s interaction with the grid. SPTS consists of a specified number of electric bus stops that are present through the ring road of the ...
Bone marrow niche is composed of cellular and non-cellular compartments. Cellular environment includes hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), non-hematopoietic stem cells and their derivatives. HSCs maintain the blood cell ...
With a view to compute three-dimensional multi-component fluid flows in complex geometry encountered in many industrial applications, a novel finite volume method over hybrid unstructured meshes is proposed for the solution ...
Chondroitin sulphate (CS) is a part of connective tissues and involved in major biological processes such as cell migration, proliferation, adhesion, pathogenesis, cell-matrix interactions, chemokine and cytokine activation. ...
The aim of the thesis was to design and develop conjugated polyelectrolyte (CPE) based fluorescence sensors for the sensitive and selective detection of various target analytes including explosive materials, environmental ...
In the rural part of India or any other developing and under developed nation, people use biomass and kerosene for cooking application because of the low cost as compared to LPG. The thermal efficiency of biomass is about ...
Liquid crystals (LCs) are unique functional soft materials combining both order and mobility on molecular, supramolecular and macroscopic levels. Discotic LCs also have made notable progress in recent years, and they are ...
Varieties of self-assemblies are formed by interactions of discrete molecules or sub-assemblies within an assembly through van der Waals interactions, and various other weak non-covalent interactions such as hydrogen bond, ...
The universal second messenger Ca2+ plays a central role in intracellular signaling in eukaryotes. Neurospora crassa is a naturally occurring filamentous fungus extensively used as a model organism to understand different ...
Cancer cells are known to lack regulation of cell proliferation due to the aberrant behavior of a myriad of signaling pathways. It is a disease of “abnormal homeostasis” mediated by defects in intra-, extra-, and intercellular ...
In this study, a Teesta river Catchment (up to Chungthang gauge), which is a part of North Sikkim eastern Himalaya India, has been selected for the completion of the research work. In this study, the latest Coupled Model ...
Magnesium alloys have low density, high specific strength, high stiffness, superior damping capacity, high thermal conductivity and good electromagnetic shielding characteristics. These properties make them suitable for a ...
Dextran producing lactic acid bacteria was isolated from the pulp of pummelo (Citrus maxima) and was phenotypically and biochemically characterized. Its was identified to be Weissella cibaria with the strain name given as ...
With the increased popularity of High Definition (HD) and beyond HD videos (4K × 2K, 8K × 4K) and the emergence of the High Efficiency Video Coding (H.265/HEVC) compression standard for HD and beyond-HD video formats, ...
This thesis investigates and endorses a non-linear and non-stationary data analysis technique, called Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD), as an alternative to the conventional methods of speech analysis. This thesis commences ...
Earth retaining structures such as retaining walls, bridge abutments, bulkheads, braced excavations and mechanically stabilized walls are often subjected to different loading conditions. Among various parameters that need ...
Recognition of human’s emotion through facial expressions has many important applications ranging from behaviour recognition, human-computer interaction, security, psychology, and so on. Recognition of facial expressions ...
Shape Memory Alloy wire actuators are very popular for offering large actuation force as well as displacement among other smart materials. The response of a SMA wire actuator is non-linear and hysteretic. In literature, ...
In short Chapter 1 is a review on the synthesis of unnatural C-nucleosides. Chapter 2 deals with the cobalt catalyzed conversion of 1'-α-ethynyl sugar to 1'-β-ethynyl sugar followed by the synthesis of C-triazolyl-β-nucleosides ...
