In Mechanical systems there is always possibility of statical and dynamical following force. These forces are generated due to aerodynamic pressure, temperature gradient, and jet thrusters. In unstabel systems, if the value of this force exceeds a certaim amount the system becomes unstable. This value is called as critical force. In order to analyse these systems, fisrt of all, the governing dynamic equations are obtained by using the Galerkin-Ritz method. Then, by utilising the modal analysis, these equation are uncoupled. And then, the Ito set of equations are derived. By utilising the Lyapanov method, Ito equations are transfered to another state. and using the fokker-planc equation the... 

Knowledge markets where knowledge transactions take place are today see increasingly expansion by influences of the Internet and the importance of knowledge. A competitive space, thus, has been placed among different enterprises step in knowledge markets. With no exception to this general rule, one of these markets covers online question – answer knowledge market. Google Answers is a proposed website in this area which, although being of interest in recent decades, its activities ended in 2006 for several reasons. Significantly, these markets consist of many factors with interrelated effects on each other and this leads to complexity of systems. Therefore, in order to study these markets, it... 

In this work, wool keratin/polyethylene oxide (PEO) nanofibrous scaffolds were fabricated by electrospinning method. Bacterial cellulose nanofibrils (BCNFs) were embedded in the electrospun keratin/PEO nanofibers. Incorporation of BCNFs into the nanofibers enhances their hydrophilicity, mechanical properties and cell viability, adhesion and proliferation. Water contact angle of the nanofibers decreased from 126˚ to 83˚by addition of 1 wt % BCNFs. A thermogelling hydrogel based on carboxylated pluronic (Pl-COOH) and gum tragacanth (GT) was fabricated and polymer conjugation was confirmed by FTIR and H-NMR spectroscopy. Morphological and viscoelastic properties of GT-grafted Pl-COOH hydrogels... 

The X-ray attosecond pulses have many useful applications for studying atomic and sub-atomic scales phenomena in attosecond scale duration. Generation and optimization of high-order harmonics is an efficient way to produce such attosecond pulses which are studied in this thesis. There are several limitations in the attosecond pulse generation such as low efficiency of high-order harmonics, long duration of output pulses and the impossibility of producing an attosecond pulse with any desired wavelength in the x-ray region. Therefore, more investigations into high harmonic generation and fully control and optimization of this process is significant. In this thesis, high harmonic generation... 

Mathematical modeling and the subsequent development of optimization algorithms for problems have been the core focus of operations research scientists. However, the challenges of solving complex models within an acceptable time frame have consistently fostered creativity in this field. Quantum computing has been proposed as an alternative to binary computing for several decades. In recent years, scientists and researchers in operations research have paid significant attention to utilizing and integrating this logic with optimization. Specifically, quantum variants of many optimization algorithms have been developed; however, more focus needs to be placed on modeling optimization problems... 

Nitrite (〖NO〗_2^-) anions are ubiquitous within the physiological, industrial, environmental, and food industries. The potential toxicity risk of these inorganic compounds has well been recognized; thus, the precise detection of these ions by developing reliable and high-throughput analytical methods is crucial for health and environment security. In this study, we present a reagentless electrochemical biosensor using cobalt-based metal-organic frameworks (ZIF-67) and gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) for determination of nitrite ions. The developed biosensor provides the advantages of MOF properties including high surface area, hierarchical porosity, and tunable functionalities along with high... 

Today, the use of carbon nanostructures hybridized with noble metals has attracted considerable attention for the fabrication of bio-electrochemical sensors. Since the specific surface area has an immense effect on the sensing response, three-dimensional structures of graphene have a great capability to utilize in these sensors. In this research, three-dimensional graphene was provided on the porous nickel foam by chemical vapor deposition technique. By evaluation of raman spectroscopy, the time period of 20 minutes for solving of the carbon atoms into the nickel foam was selected as the main parameter of optimized conditions for the synthesis of graphene. Afterward, production of few-layer... 

A Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) is a communication system that does not need any peripheral muscular activity. The huge goal of BCI is to translate brain activity into a command for a computer. One of the most important topics in the brain-computer interface is motor imagery (MI), which shows the reconstruction of subjects. The electrical activities of the brain are measured as electroencephalogram (EEG). EEG signals behave as low to noise ratio also show the dynamic behaviors.In the present work, a novel approach has been employed which is based on feature extraction with discretion wavelet transform (DWT), support vector machine (SVM), Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Convolutional...
