Uranium is one of the most important elements in nuclear fuel cycle. Recovery of uranium from wastes that were generated in varrious prosesses of nuclear fuel cycle, is very important not only because of economical values, but also due to their envirolmental. A considerable amount of solid waste have been produced during the fluorination process of in fluorination fludizedbed reactor at UCF plant in Iran. In this thesis, first, the solid waste of UCF floinatin reactor has been characterized. After characterization of waste, the dissolution of waste by different solvents has been studied and optimom condition for dissolution was determinated. Uranium recovery from the solution was tested... 

Nuclear energy is one of the most important sources of energy from the economical point of view and also in terms of cleanliness and safety. Hence, strategically, uranium is one of the most basic elements of the earth and nowadays, the importance of this element is more marked due to the nuclear industry developement. Therefore, uranium recovery from the wastes generated during nuclear fuel production in Isfahan’s uranium conversion plant- in which yellow cake is converted to uranium hexafluoride- is quite pivotal. In this experimental research, uranium is extracted from the sludge of evaporation lagoons of Isfahan’s UCF plant via solvent extraction method. Execution of this project in an... 

Nowadays, leakage energy constitutes up to 80% of total cache energy consumption and tag array is responsible for a considerable fraction of static energy consumption. An approach to reduce static energy consumption is to replace SRAMs by STT-RAMs with near zero leakage power. However, a problem of an STT-RAM cell is its limited write endurance. In spite of previous studies which have targeted the data array, in this study STT-RAMs are used in the L1 tag array. To solve the write endurance problem, this study proposes an STT-RAM/SRAM tag architecture. Considering the spatial locality of memory references, the lower significant bit-lines of the tag update more. The SRAM part handles the... 

Metallic glasses (MG) are a group of materials that have unique properties such as high yielding strength and high elastic deformation. Because of limitation in the production of these materials, a few industrial materials of MG have been made so far. A few of binary alloys, like binary alloys made of Cu-Zr, have high Glass Forming Ability (GFA) in medium cooling rates. Between two binary systems of Cu-Zr and Ni-Zr, although constituent elements in aspect of atomic radius, electronic structure, physical properties, phase diagrams and intermetallic compounds are so similar to each other, but GFA between them are very different. For example, in Cu-Zr system there are compounds, such as... 

In traditional machine learning approaches to classification, one uses only a labeled set to train the classifier. Labeled instances however are often difficult, expensive, or time consuming to obtain, as they require the efforts of experienced human annotators. Meanwhile unlabeled data may be relatively easy to collect, but there has been few ways to use them. Semi-supervised learning addresses this problem by using large amount of unlabeled data, together with the labeled data, to build better classifiers. Because semi-supervised learning requires less human effort and gives higher accuracy.Formally, this intuition corresponds to estimating a label function f on the graph so that it... 

Suspension systems play a significant role in vehicles. They are responsible for providing ride comfort to the passengers and maintain car handling. Vibrations induced by the road can cause harmful effects on human body and this reveals the importance of designing and controlling the suspension system. Semi-active control is a reliable and safe method that has attracted a great deal of attention in the suppressing the car vibration. MR damper is a sample of semi-active control method. In most of the studies that have been done in literature the human body model has not been considered in designing the control strategy. In this study, a complete model of suspension system integrated with the... 

The purpose of this reaserch is to create a context in production of Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 with more effective properties in Bone healing in Iran. Because of demand Of this protein in medical field it could cause an evalution in bone healing. The first section of this reaserch was the Construction of new recombinant plasmid carrying bone morphogenetic protein gene that was title of this thesis. First total RNA was extracted from ostosarcoma cancer cell line MG-63 followed by cDNA synthesis.For amplifying of the mature region of protein a pair of primer with tow restriction site was designed. After Success in PCR and obtaining PCR product with size of 343bp it transferd to vector...
