Functionally Graded Material (FGM)is attaining more and more interests recently due to its outstanding feature of possessing benefits of physical and mechanical properties of two materials in one part. One of the common processes to fabricate FGM is laser directed energy deposition of pre-mixed powder of two materials. The powder stream and laser attenuation in LDED of FGM is studied in this dissertation by the aid of numerical simulation and experimental investigations. Due to numerical simulation results, which is done in FLUENT software, powder particle size and axial shielding gas flow rate has significant effect on composition of powder mixture falling into the molten pool. Considering... 

Direct digital synthesizers (DDS) are one type of frequency synthesizer that are used for creating arbitrary waveforms from a reference clock with fixed-frequency and have various applications in signal generators, local oscillators in telecommunication systems, mixers, modulators and part of phase-locked loop.Despite of numerous advantages of direct digital synthesizers like high accuracy, fast switching ability, low power consumption and etc, beacuse of some available alternative errors in its structure like phase truncation, Inside band of desired output signal, independent unwanted signals namely spur were created. Spurs creat trouble in the use of sensor or radar systems and limit the... 

Antenna arrayss have long been utilized in many applications including communication, radar, and imaging. With the advancement of the telecommunication industry and the emergence of new requirements in the fifth generation of telecommunications, imaging and the Internet of Things, new antenna arrays are designed at higher operating frequencies and with particular specifications. One of the major challenges in using these types of antennas is unwanted mutual coupling in these systems. These couplings can occur between the antenna elements of the array itself, or between two or more arrays that are adjacent to each other. These couplings can seriously affect the performance of the system.... 

With the rapid growth of technology in recent decades, a revolution has been started, known as Industry 4.0, in current manufacturing systems. In this revolution, cloud manufacturing systems play an important role. Cloud manufacturing is a new service-driven business model developed from existing advanced manufacturing models with the aid of innovative technologies, such as cloud computing, virtualization, Internet of Things (IoT), service-oriented technologies, semantic web, and so forth. This manufacturing paradigm allows service providers to share their manufacturing resources in a cloud platform, converts these distributed manufacturing resources into manufacturing services, and arranges...

In this research ,lean and agile indexes in S.G.S Co. are evaluated. This company is the first company in engineering and supplying automotive parts as well as the first supply chain management and organization of Saipa Group. In the part of evaluating the lean management level it is the developed model of the suggested approach by Jackson “implementing a lean management system” (Jackson, 1996). As S.G.S is engaged in servicing activities not in production, we have changed some factors in Jackson's methodology. Different with the last model, we got the results and used AHP method for getting the level in each key. Finally by using another AHP the lean index of the S.G.S Co. was identified.... 

Our problem is to evaluation state and form of a tracer passing through the vessel. Using this method, we can identify the effect of during used in some defected parts of body. This evaluation leads to in solving a Laplace equation with mixed boundary condition. Separating that problem, we reach to a collection of algebraic and linear equations. Solving this system, we approximate coefficients of the solution with a series the existence and uniqueness of and analytic solution has been proved using the Eigen functions finally, using numerical algorithms, we have interpreted the analytical solutions.
 

In this thesis , we consider nonnegative (continuous) weak solutions of the porous medium equation with source , u_t-∆u^m=u^p, and p>m>1 .
Assume that, m>1 and 1< p/m u_t-∆u^m=u^p,xϵR^n ,tϵR

In one space-dimensional, the conclusion of the result mentioned above remains true without the assumption of the radial symmetry. The proof is based on the intersection-comparison arguments , zero number argum- ents and a key step is to show the... 

ISO 10303 Standard also known as STEP, is an standard in the domain of mechanical manufacturing that describes data relating to drawings, design, machining, process planning, engineering and other aspects of product which all together can describe the entire life cycle of products. However, as this standard is newly born and developing these data models are expensive and time consuming, so far, no data model for description of cutting tools is developed. In this project we study the STEP parts and protocols to understand how data is stored. We study EXPRESS Modeling language, the language developed as part of the STEP standard which is the official language of data modeling in STEP. And use... 

Decision making is one of the most critical issues in engineering field. The Axiomatic Design is recently known as one of the most robust tools for decision making task. Axiomatic design is a engineering theory that provides a systematic framework for decision making using two axioms. These two axioms called Independence and Information axioms are both used to do the task.In this thesis, the information axiom is used to select the best machine (operation) for manufacturing cylindrical parts. To do that, three criteria including surface roughness, dimensional accuracy and cost have been chosen.Finally a comparison to the result of this methodology and the result of Analytical Hierarchy... 

Nowadays, because of high volume and growth of data in industrial organizations and productive factories, registration and storing of data have forgotten manual and tradition styles for which using automation and mechanized machinery and systems has been a necessary task. In order to reach to this revolution, need to some tools, facilities and methods which can fulfill this requirement is felt strongly. Therefore, high volume of data is considered as an advantage because based on precise analysis it is possible to make logical management decisions with less risk. During last years, statistical and numerical methods and simulation were used to discover knowledge and information when one of... 

This thesis is based on articles [18,15]. Zhao [18] has studied a free boundary problem modeling the growth of tumors with drug application. In this model live cells are two kindes: proliferative cells and quiescent cells. This model consists of two nonlinear second-order parabolic equations describing the diffusion of nutrient and drug concentration, and three nonlinear first-order hyperbolic equations describing the evolution of proliferative cells, quiescent cells and dead cells. He has proved that this free boundary problem has a unique global solution. Tao and Chen [15] have studied another free boundary problem modelling the growth of an avascular tumour with drug application. The... 

In competitive environment of quick market changes, developing an interoperable manufacturing system is a necessity. Process planning as a connection link between design and manufacturing, has never been able to integrate these up/down stream activities and in spite of employing computer systems, CAPP’s information has been managed in an isolated manner. To realize interoperability, the exchange of part and product data must be independent of their platforms. There are two basic approaches for this purpose: i) Utilizing interface and ii) Utilizing neutral formats. STEP (Standard for the Exchange of Product data) plays a significant role as a neutral data model to integrate design,... 

Nowdays, many of communication systems working together. The fist part of each communication system is related to separating a desired part of system input signal. This is called channelisation. Channelization is a process where single, few, or all channels from a certain frequency band are separated for further processing. The separation of single channel is usually done by down-conversion followed by filtering and optional sample-rate conversion. A straightforward implementation for multi channel sepration, which is also the traditional implementation of wideband channelizer, is to simply use a single-channel channelizer for each channel. A few applications require that an input signal be...
