Forecasting P/E Ratio by Decomposing into Constituent Factros
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Zamani, Shiva (Supervisor) ; Abdoh Tabrizi, Hossein (Supervisor)
Abstract
P/E ratio is studied in four levels in this study:
1)Macroeconomics level
2)Capital market level
3)Industry level
4)Company level
The first level studies effects of macroeconomics variables on P/E ratio. At this level we use variables such as economic growth, inflation, exchange rate, and etc.The next level uses capital market variables such as market volume, and IPO information.The third level that we study in this research is industry level. Stocks of an industry generally behave similar, because they have common advantages and disadvantages, thus industry is an effective factor on P/E ratio.The last level studies financial statements and internal features of a...

Investigating Merger and Acquisition Deal Process: A Case Study Research from an Emerging Market
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Talebian, Masoud (Supervisor) ; Abdoh Tabrizi, Hossein (Supervisor)
Abstract
Earlier research mainly have addressed to a part of the M&A phenomenon and rarely have conducted multi-aspect analysis of it. On the other hand, unfortunately a high percentage of M&A deals collapses before completion which implicates there is not a thorough understanding of all the variables involved in the M&A process. Therefore, we conducted a case study research which is better qualified at providing in-depth, multi-aspects and multidisciplinary understanding and therefore novel findings of this multifaceted and complex phenomenon, M&A, in an emerging market context. Our research aims to highlight these questions: 1. what are the underlying incentives behind M&A deals initiation? 2. What...

Abstract
Effect of using Al 2O 3-water nanofluids with different volume fractions and particle diameters on generated entropy, hydrodynamic performance and heat transfer characteristics of a tangential micro-heat sink (TMHS) was numerically investigated in this research. Results indicated that considerable heat transfer enhancement is possible when using Al 2O 3-water nanofluids as coolant and clearly the enhancement improves with increasing particles concentration and decreasing particles size. However, using nanofluid has also induced drastic effects on the pumping power that increases with particles volume fraction and Reynolds number. Finally, it was found that generated total entropy decreases...
Robustness of A biped robot controller developed by human expertise extraction against changes in terrain
, Article Proceedings of the IASTED International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Applications (as part of the 22nd IASTED International Multi-Conference on Applied Informatics, Innsbruck, 16 February 2004 through 18 February 2004 ; 2004 , Pages 68-73 ; 088986375X (ISBN); 9780889863750 (ISBN) ; Bagheri, S ; IASTED ; Sharif University of Technology

Abstract
Controlling dynamic biped robots is a complex challenge. Almost all researches in this field assume that the internal structure and dynamics of the robot is known to the controller. But in real-world problems we don't have exact model of the robot or this model is very complicated and is not useful in real-time control. As a matter of fact, we use many devices without any knowledge about their internal structure or analytical models. Some researchers used learning algorithms to control bipeds, but their performance is not comparable to human's learning. Fuzzy controllers can control the bipeds with lower cost, but they need sufficient rules. In the previous works we proposed a linguistic...
A Review on Structure Formation Via f(R) Gravity Models
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Rahvar, Sohrab (Supervisor)
Abstract
It has been about a decade that cosmological datas have shown the universe is accelerating. To describe this acceleration, cosmologosts use cosmological constant as the easiest way to describe,or the modified gravity models or smooth dark energy models as other ways. In this thesis we solved a specific structure formation problem, density contrast, for linear structures, in two different methods. the first method was LCDM model and the second method was a specific f (R) gravity model. We shpwed that these two solutions are about the same.

Abstract
Seismic isolators are used to decrease the energy and forces of earthquakes. The weight of conventional steel-reinforced elastomeric isolators (SREIs) is high, mostly due to the use of multiple steel shim plates. On the contrary, the damping ratio of SREIs is relatively low. Accordingly, this research utilizes a new approach in which the steel shim plates are replaced by carbon and polyamide fibers. This study attempts to obtain the dynamic and mechanical properties of such carbon fiber- and polyamide fiber-reinforced elastomeric isolators, in comparison with SREIs. In this work, a number of specimens were initially designed and manufactured. Afterwards, compression and cyclic shear tests...

Abstract
A size-dependent, explicit formulation for coupled thermoelasticity addressing a Timoshenko microbeam is derived in this study. This novel model combines modified couple stresses and non-Fourier heat conduction to capture size effects in the microscale. To this purpose, a length-scale parameter as square root of the ratio of curvature modulus to shear modulus and a thermal relaxation time as the phase lag of heat flux vector are considered for predicting the thermomechanical behavior in a microscale device accurately. Governing equations and boundary conditions of motion are obtained simultaneously through variational formulation based on Hamilton's principle. As for case study, the model is...
Optimization of functionally graded materials in the slab symmetrically surface heated using transient analytical solution
, Article Journal of Thermal Stresses ; Vol. 37, issue. 2 , February , 2014 , pp. 137-159 ; ISSN: 01495739 ; Taati, E ; Tabrizi, H. B ; Sharif University of Technology

Abstract
Functionally graded materials (FGMs) have been introduced to significantly reduce the temperature and thermal stresses on structures at severe thermal loading. Design and development of FGMs as the heat treatable and energy-absorbing materials for high-temperature and thermal protection systems requires understanding of exact temperature and thermal stress distribution, in order to optimize their resistance to failure. In this study, transient temperature and associated thermal stresses in a functionally graded slab symmetrically heated on both sides are determined by separation of the variables scheme. This method is applied to the heat conduction equation in terms of heat flux for...

Abstract
A survey on the methods of detecting a human body inside surrounding captured images of a machine, optimizing one of these methods and finding an injured person in a captured picture is our target. Using neural networks for better detection and making RBFN network, make it possible to use high altitude captured pictures with lower resolution and light changes. Modifying RBFN to MRBFN network for an optimized processing with effect of living signs seems to be an applicable approach. These methods can extended from detecting an injured person in a captured picture, to analyze the medical images like detecting a special pattern in MRI picture. Of course it’s a start for many future...

Comparative analysis of the boundary transfer method with other near-wall treatments based on the k-ε turbulence model
, Article European Journal of Mechanics, B/Fluids ; Vol. 44, issue , 2014 , pp. 22-31 ; ISSN: 09977546 ; Basirat Tabrizi, H ; Farhadpour, F. A ; Sharif University of Technology

Abstract
Accurate description of wall-bounded turbulent flows requires a fine grid near walls to fully resolve the boundary layers. We consider a locally simplified transport model using an assumed near-wall viscosity profile to project the wall boundary conditions using the boundary transfer method. Related coefficients are obtained numerically. By choosing a near-wall viscosity profile, we derive an analytic wall function, which significantly reduces the CPU costs. The performance of this wall function is compared to other near-wall treatments proposed in the literature for two frequently used benchmark cases: near-equilibrium channel flow and flow over a backward-facing step with separation and...

Abstract
Three-dimensional, transient turbulent particulate flow in an FCC riser is modeled using an Eulerian/Granular approach. The turbulence in the gas phase is described by a modified realizable (kg-g) closure model and the kinetic theory of granular flow (KTGF) is employed for the particulate phase. Separate simulations are conducted for a rectangular and a cylindrical riser with similar dimensions. The model predictions are validated against experimental data of Sommerfeld et al (2002) and also compared with the previously reported LES-KTGF simulations of Hansen et al (2003) for the rectangular riser. The (kg-g)-KTGF model does not perform as well as the LES-KTGF model for the riser with a...
