Auditorium (AE 005), Department of Aerospace Engineering

Dear All, The Dept. of Aerospace Engineering, in collaboration with Centre for Continuing Education is conducting a one-week tutorial workshop on "Signal Processing for High-Precision Navigation and Surveillance", during 06 – 11 July 2026. Based on some requests, the due date of Early Registration has been extended to 28-06-2026 (Sunday). More details can be found […]

Characterizing Dynamic Response of Structures and Materials under Extreme Loading Environments

Online
Virtual Event Virtual Event

Protective structures and vessels used in marine and defense applications are increasingly required to withstand extreme dynamic loading caused by explosions in air and underwater. Designing lightweight yet resilient structures demands a fundamental understanding of shock-wave interactions with materials, structural geometry, and the surrounding medium. This seminar presents a series of experimental investigations that progressively […]

FROM MOTION PLANNING TO MULTI-ROBOT AUTONOMY IN CONSTRAINED AND DISCONNECTED ENVIRONMENTS

Auditorium (AE 005), Department of Aerospace Engineering

Autonomous robots operating in challenging environments must make reliable decisions under geometric, dynamic, and environmental constraints. In such settings, motion planning plays a central role in enabling robots to move safely and efficiently through cluttered, narrow, disconnected or uncertain spaces, while balancing feasibility, robustness, and computational efficiency. This talk will focus on motion planning for […]

Modelling the response of Turbulent CH4-Air premixed flame using Resolvent Analysis

STC Seminar Hall, Dept. of Aerospace Engineering

An understanding of the flame transfer function (FTF) is essential for predicting the onset of combustion instabilities in gas turbine combustors, where flow oscillations excited by acoustic forcing drive burning area and heat-release oscillations that can couple unfavourably with combustor acoustic modes. The heatrelease response is expensive to characterize directly through time resolved simulation, motivating […]

Ph.D. (Engg) : Wave Propagation in Small Scale Structure Modelled With Nonlocal Continuum Theory

This thesis develops analytical and computational frameworks for studying static and dynamic behaviour in nonlocal elastic structures, focusing on wave propagation, stress localization, and guided-wave phenomena at micro- and nano-scales, where size-dependent effects fall outside classical continuum mechanics. Eringen's differential nonlocal elasticity theory and higher-order continuum formulations are used to capture these small-scale interactions. The […]

AstroNav: Autonomy for Navigating Deep Space and Beyond

STC Seminar Hall, Dept. of Aerospace Engineering

Autonomous navigation is becoming a critical capability for modern deep space exploration, planetary defense, and commercial space ventures. Traditional spacecraft navigation relies heavily on ground-based radio contact to collect two-way radiometric Doppler and range measurements. However, this structural dependency introduces significant communication latency and places a heavy burden on oversubscribed ground antenna networks. For cutting-edge […]

Multiphase Reactive Flows: From Dust Explosions to Metal-Fueled Detonations

Auditorium (AE 005), Department of Aerospace Engineering

. Explosions in coal mines, metal-processing facilities, and other industrial settings occur with alarming regularity, while reactive metal particles are being considered for energy-storage and propulsion applications. Despite a long history of research and its importance to safety and propulsion applications, the physical mechanisms that govern the ignition, combustion, and detonation of reactive particles remain […]

MTech(Res) : Design of an Ex-Situ Gas Sampling Layout with Various Probes and Their Performance Assessment for Accurate Emission Measurements

STC Conference Hall, Ground Floor, Department of Aerospace Engineering

Chemical kinetic mechanism development and validation require quantitative species data from canonical flames. Burner-stabilized pre -mixed flames provide a stationary post-flame region directly comparable to one-dimensional kinetic simulations. Ex-situ gas sampling delivers absolute CO and NO mole fractions from this region. The extraction step introduces two coupled biases. Reactions can continue inside the probe, and […]

Ph .D.(Engg.): Explicit Filtering LES of turbulent swirling flows and multi-regime hydrogen flames

STC Seminar Hall, Dept. of Aerospace Engineering

The need to decarbonize power generation and aviation has established hydrogen as a promising fuel for next generation gas turbine combustion systems. However, its high chemical reactivity significantly increases the propensity for autoignition and flashback under lean premixed conditions commonly used in hydrocarbon combustion systems. New combustor concepts based on direct fuel injection address these […]

Ph.D. (Engg): Aerodynamics and Stability of a Generic Tailless UAV in Ground Effect

AE Conference Room , AE 003
Virtual Event Virtual Event

Tailless UAVs are stealthy, high-subsonic configurations used for deep penetration into contested airspace. These configurations have wing with moderate leading edge sweep angle with no definite fuselage and lack both horizontal tail and vertical tail which makes the aerodynamics of these configurations very unique. The increase in autonomous UAVs in recent times have led to […]

Ph.D. (Engg):Tonal acoustic radiation from turbulent subsonic jets

STC Seminar Hall, Dept. of Aerospace Engineering

Acoustic tones in the near field of a Mach 0.9, Reynolds number 10^6 round jet are investigated using large-eddy simulations (LES) performed with the explicit filtering LES (EFLES) approach. The jet is issued into the ambient through a cylindrical nozzle. Pressure spectra at observer locations in the upstream direction reveal the presence of tones which […]

MTech(res) Parallel Particle Tracking for Turbulent Round Jets

STC Seminar Hall, Dept. of Aerospace Engineering

Particle tracking in turbulent jets is essential for an accurate Lagrangian understanding of jet flows. While parallel algorithms and numerical schemes to compute flow fields can be scaled to a large number of computing processes, the same is not necessarily true for particle tracking. This thesis presents an analysis of the parallel efficiency of particle […]
