Title: Comparative Study and Parallel Implementation of Stochastic Models
for Pricing of European Options Portfolios using Monte Carlo Methods
Over the years, with the emergence of sophisticated computers and algorithms, finance has been
quantified using computational prowess. Asset valuation has been one of the key components of
quantitative finance. In fact, it has become one of the embryonic steps in determining risk related
to a portfolio which is one of the main objectives of quantitative finance. This study comprises a drawing comparison
between valuation output generated by two stochastic dynamic models, namely Black-Scholes
and Dupire’s bi-dimensionality model. Both of these...(Refer to abstract below)
Title: Binary droplet Collision Outcomes Detection in Interacting Sprays using Convolutional Neural Network
The injector plate of a liquid propellant rocket’s combustion chamber is composed of multiple
fuel and oxidizer injectors. The spray droplets formed by injectors interact with each other,
resulting in a change of droplet size, shape, and velocity. This leads to a change in the mixing
characteristics of the combustible mixture and thus the combustion dynamics. In past studies,
researchers performed studies to understand the collision dynamics of spray droplets but only
considered the low Weber number regime, which consists of the collision outcome regime,
namely, bouncing, coalescence, stretching, and reflexive separation. In fact, in the combustion
chamber of an LPR engine, fuel and oxidizer are injected at high injection pressure...(Refer to abstract below)
Title: Deflagration to Detionation Transition Studies using Numerical Simulations
The main motivation of the study is to utilize the Open-source CFD code OpenFOAM. For the
study, ddtFoam solver for deflagration to detonation simulation for hydrogen-air mixture is used.
The objectives of this report is to give the overview of basic theory of detonation, the numerical
methods used in ddtFoam solver and perform 2-D and axisymmetric numerical simulations for
PDE tube with detonation enhancement devices. In this study, straight PDE...(Refer to full report below)
Title: Qualitative Analysis: Student Entrepreneurship & related
problems in small businesses in India
Student entrepreneurs are those young, enthusiastic and risk-taking individuals with the ability
to harness the factors of production and related intangible factors in their creative response to
dynamic business environments. This study critically examines the various challenges and
pitfalls faced by a student entrepreneur in India using descriptive methodology by adducing
five real life cases. Moreover, seeing the trend of...(Refer to full report below)
Title: Calibration of Differential Pressure Sensor
(MS4515-DS5A002DP)
A pressure transducer is a special kind of sensor that alters the pressure forced into electrical
signals. The major applications of a pressure transducer majorly involve its use in altitude
sensing, level or depth sensing, pressure sensing, flow sensing, and leak testing. One of its
applications is in aircraft air data sensing. Air-data is vital to successfully completing an
aircraft's mission and is derived from the air surrounding the aircraft. Accurate...(Refer to full report below)
Title: Burn Rate Modifiers for Composite Solid Propellants
The main aim of this study was to enhance knowledge about rocket propellants and their
processing and procurement. Solid propellants are generally called as energetic materials out
of which few that can be named are RDX, HMX and AP. AP or Ammonium perchlorate or
NH4ClO4 is eminently used as an oxidizer in solid propellant based rockets. The main reason
is that its decomposition or combustion temperature lies in the desirable region for rocket
propulsion. The objective of this report is to give detail information about physical, chemical
and thermal properties of AP. An attempt...(Refer to full report below)
Title: Variation of wake skew angle as a function of
advance ratio for the rotor tilt angle
Helicopters have different aerodynamics as compared to airplanes. The rotor blades of helicopter draw
a similarity with wind turbines blades. Similar to wind turbine blades, helicopter rotor blades are set
up and angle between the chord of the propeller and a plane normal to axis of rotation, called tilt angle.
This angle varies across the span because of blade twist. In the fluid medium, the wake angle formed
as it displaces the fluid is dependent on the non-dimensional velocity...(Refer to full report below)
