The present study was carried out to study the bearing capacity. of single and multiple under-reamed piles in the weak soils covering a large portion of the Shriraagar Valley. The study include' full scale tests on 8 nos. ...

In this study, molecular dynamics fracture simulation of a brittle single layer graphene sheet is performed to give us the parameters needed to perform phase field fracture modeling. Molecular dynamics simulation encompasses ...

The last two decades have witnessed an unprecedented growth in the field of biomedical nanotechnology. A vast variety of nanomaterials are inspected so far in this campaign but among them only few have succeeded in their ...

Orthopaedic implants and prosthetic devices form an imposing bulk among the invasive surgeries performed round the world today. In 1980, biomedical implants were a viable option for patients in need of joint replacement, ...

The static-power constrained applications have promoted the research on the steep slope transistor based analog/digital circuits. The prime objective is to overcome the problem of the MOSFET‘s ever-increasing leakage current ...

Considerable knowledge has been gained in the, last three decades about the phenomena of ground motion, the characteristics of structures and their behaviour in earthquakes. Whenever an earthquake occurs, it induces forces ...

The prime stumbling block for achieving prolonged patency of SDVG (<6 mm in diameter) is to forgo the high incidence of arteriosclerosis, thrombosis and re-stenosis, specially its major pathology, arterial intimal hyperplasia. ...

When a bulk material is transformed to nanoscale material (at least one dimension between 1 to 100 nm), its electronic structure changes which in turns modifies its various chemical and physical properties. Thus nanoscale ...

Magnesium alloys are attracting engineers for their practical applications to the industrial use because of its light weight and high specific strength. In this work, fatigue- fracture properties, as they are the most ...

This thesis presents the results of an experimental Investigation on the mechanism of resistance to flow over artificial roughness elements. The studies were carried out on two»dimensional sharp-edged strips of negligible ...
