(2017)The fluid-structure interactions between laminar channel-flow and pressure-loaded compliant-wall can lead to channel collapse and structural vibrations. Two-dimensional numerical simulations of fluid-conveying channels ...
-
(2016)This thesis developed image processing techniques enabling the detection and segregation of biological three dimensional images into its component features based upon shape and relative size of the features detected. The ...
-
(2016)Cutting fluids play an important role in improving machining performance. However, cutting fluids have adverse effects on health and environment. A new methodology has been proposed for the prediction of tool temperature ...
