Climate change has significantly exacerbated the wildfire seasons, increasing their frequency, duration, and scale of destruction. Globally, wildfires destroy approximately 400 million hectares of land annually, resulting in significant biodiversity […]
The transonic Mach number regime is a critical phase in the atmospheric ascent of launch vehicles, where aerodynamic loads peak due to the combined effects of high freestream dynamic pressure […]
Microwave absorption materials (MAMs) are crucial for both long-standing aeronautical and emerging space security applications, with carbon-based materials traditionally dominating the field due to their exceptional strength and lightweight nature. […]
The quadcopters are increasingly used in cluttered environments as rapid advancements are made in the development of lightweight sensors and payloads. Intelligence Surveillance Reconnaissance (ISR) missions, crack detection on the […]
In fluid mechanics, the boundary-layer transition is a very important phenomenon for high-speed flows because it severely affects the skin friction and heating rates on the model surface. The classical […]
The finite element method (FEM) and finite volume method (FVM) are widely used numerical techniques for solving differential equations, with FEM mainly applied in solid mechanics and FVM in heat […]
Phase transformation materials are characterized by their ability to rapidly and reversibly switch between distinct properties, such as insulating and conducting, paramagnetic and ferromagnetic, or Li-rich and Li-poor. These transformations, […]
This course is designed to familiarize the students with the mathematical concepts and computational techniques in quantifying the risk, reliability and resilience (RRR) of large, complex systems, in the presence […]
This dissertation focuses on surface preparation and its effect on the shear strength of adhesively bonded Single Lap Joints (SLJs) in Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP), their fracture properties, and […]
Specific modal and non-modal mechanisms (flow coherences) in fluid flows, associated with distinct time and length scales, govern important flow phenomena, e.g., laminar-to-turbulent transition, turbulent drag, and flow separation. Consequently, […]
Transonic shock buffet, a self-sustained shock oscillation resulting from shock-boundary layer interaction, is observed across a range of operating points on the performance map of a transonic axial flow fan. Shock […]
Indian Space Programme: has been a catalyst for advanced research, technological innovation and space exploration in the country. Scientific data from ISRO’s earth observation, lunar and planetary exploration missions are […]
