    Modeling the Market Based on Monopolistic Competition of Trade: Case Study of Auto Market

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Emamipour, Sajad (Author) ; Abedini, Javad (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Concentration brings a twofold result to the market. From one side, it reduces the competition and then the number of varieties in the market, which discourages consumption; from another side, however, it reduces the price of goods due to increasing returns to scale and so encourages consumption. This controversial role of concentration raises the question that which degree of concentration might be, say, optimum for the market. Based on the Krugman approach, this study makes a relation between the number of firms, export volume, marginal and average fixed cost of production. We show that when number of firms reduces in the market, export volume could increase because of a reduction in...

    Abstract
    Now days supply chain systems operate in an operational environment with high uncertainty. Customer globalization, increase of natural and manmade disasters, outsourcing in far distances have increased uncertainty. Flexibility as a capability can help systems included supply chains respond to uncertainty and deliver value to their users. auto supply chain is the one that has suffered from these disasters. This paper encapsulates operational environment uncertainty through scenario development, then scores the scenarios based on some proxies. Design structure matrix is proposed to show the typical auto supply chain relationships before scenario occurring consequences and after that. in the... 

    Adversarial Attack to Deep Learning Networks via Imperceptible Sparse Perturbation

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Heshmati, Alireza (Author) ; Ghaemmaghami, Shahrokh (Supervisor) ; Marvasti, Farokh (Supervisor) ; Amini, Sajad (Co-Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Nowadays, methods based on deep learning networks are the most effective artificial in­ telligence methods. Although they have achieved success in various fields (such as machine vision and object recognition), practical and experimental cases show the fragility of deep learning networks against perturbations and unwanted changes of the input pattern. All these perturbations must be in a way that the main class of the perturbed input pattern can be rec­ ognized by human, but the network makes a mistake in recognizing its correct class. This thesis seeks a more accurate evaluation by designing adversarial attacks such that the main class of the adversarial pattern is detectable by human... 

    Dynamic response of metal foam FG porous cylindrical micro-shells due to moving loads with strain gradient size-dependency

    Abstract
    The dynamic characteristics of functionally graded (FG) metal foam cylindrical micro-scale shells in contact with a moving load will be analyzed thorough this paper accounting for strain-gradient size-dependency. In the material structure of a metal foam, pores can diffuse uniformly or non-uniformly. Based upon Laplace transform, the dynamical governing equations of the first-order micro-shell model can be established in a new domain. In order to go back into the time domain, an inverse Laplace transform will be required. Thus, on can express the time response or dynamic deflection of the micro-shell under moving load. In the presented results, it is easy to see the prominence of...
