In this thesis we study three versions of K−theory. The most well-known vesrsion is topological K−theory, a generalization of Grothendieck works on algebraic varieties to the topological setting by Atyiah and Hirzebruch. Since its birth it has been an indespensible tool in topology,differential geometry and index theory. In the early 1970s C∗−algebraic version of K−theory introduced through associating two abelian groups,K0(A)and K1(A)to a C∗−algebra like A. These functors proved to be a powerful machine, making it possible to calculate the K−theory of a great many C∗−algebras. At last,algebraic K−theory is dealig with linear algebra over a ring R by associating it, a sequence of abelian... 

Dual Phase ferritic-martensitic steels are kind of high strength low alloy steels (HASLA) which are widely used in industry because of their strength and formability. Since welding of dual phase steels in conventional welding methods causes structural change and Subsequently alters mechanical properties of both weld zone and heat affected zone(HAZ), additional operations which are not commercially viable is needed to achieve a dual phase structure in structurally changed regions. In this study, transient liquid phase (TLP) bonding method is used during dual phasing process in order to preserve dual phase ferritic-martensitic structure and avoid extra heat treatment. Applied pressure during... 

The  aim  of  this  work  is  to  investigate  some  theoretical  models  developed  in  recent years for describing electronic correlation and apply them to some special problems  and  metallicity  and  insulating  behavior  of  one  type  of  paramagnetic  systems. One  of  the  vast‐applied  and  effective  routines  for  investigating  the  strongly  correlated electron systems is Dynamical Mean Field Theory (DMFT). In the first part,  the  equations  of  DMFT  are  solved  on  nearly  real  frequency  axis  with  a  effective and more reliable solver a little parameter γ above the real axis. This approach  appears  fine  structures  that  can’t  be  captured  with  the ... 

Sialons are materials which crystallize in four elements system (Si-Al-O-N). These materials have been widely observed by researchers because of their suitable properties like: high toughness and strength in high temperatures, high resistance to corrosion and stability in thermal shock. Because of these properties,Sialons are anti erosion materials. In this research, by controling the situations, mullite has been synthesized by sol-gel procedure. Then the powder has been ground by ballmill for 12 hours and by spex for 30 minutes. Then the produced powder was mixed with distinct amount of graphite and nano silica and was nitrided in the furnace at 1500 ̊C and was heated for 5 hours. Also... 

Nowadays, oil has an important role in our life and most of its role can be seen on the transportation. Discovering and extraction of oil are very important to produce oil and receive it to costumer. When oil is discovered, the oil companies used to drill the ground to extract the oil but they can’t extract all of oil from its reservoir. So, researchers proposed to inject another fluid like water to the oil reservoir to extract oil. Oil is trapped in the porous media which has a lot of pores and some of them have a micro scale size and they contain oil. When water is injected to the reservoir it flows in this pore and interfaces with oil and they create a multiphase flow. The governing... 

Due to conspicuous increases in shopping and goods transportation in this unbridled world, a significant part of companies’ final interest and final cost are related to their distributions of goods. Meanwhile, because of practical constraints of service hours and service distances, logistics companies usually build multiple depots to serve a great number of dispersed customers. Hence, multi-depot vehicle routing problems (MDVRP) win more and more engineers’ and companies’ attention to thrift their cost by using optimization methods. Considering NP-hardness of MDVRP and the lack of optimal solution derived by heuristic and meta-heuristic approaches in the large scale problems, in this... 

The dynamic nature of today’s manufacturing industry, which is caused by the intense global competition and constant technological advancements, requires systems that are easily adaptable with new functions and technologies. In fact, a highly responsive manufacturing system is needed in which, introducing new products, adjusting system capacity with demand fluctuations and integrating new technologies with the existing ones are quickly possible.Reconfigurable Manufacturing systems (RMS) are a relatively new paradigm in industry that enable rapid adjustments of production capacity to changes in product mix and volume through their main characteristics including modularity, scalability and... 

Nowadays, electrical energy is a necessity and the use of intelligent power equipment is expanding. Of course, having a protocol for communicating between such equipment is not only useful but sometimes mandatory. In the past, each equipment manufacturer used its own method for communication, hence, the "IEC 61850" standard was proposed as a solution to solve the problem of communication between different equipment. In this research, we intend to design a tester to perform a performance test with for GOOSE messages. These messages are based on the IEC 61850 data set and have the ability to quickly and securely distribute input and output values at the system level, which are transmitted by a... 

The water and energy demand increase as the population grows. Increased usage of energy leads to scarcity of available resources and limited absorption capacity of environment. Development of efficient and environmentally compatible energy conversion technologies are conceived as an important option for resolving pressing challenges. Compatibility with environment requires considerable reduction in the share of fossil fuels and efficient utilization of renewable energy sources. Hence, development of high-efficiency solar energy systems is becoming an important challenge in the energy sector. The present study is involved with development an integrated solar system based on the application of... 

In this study, existing prediction methods of maximum scour depth around complex piers are studies using available experimental data and a new relationship for scour prediction is presented. Complex pier consists of a column, pile cap and pile group and is frequently used for foundation of bridge piers in hydraulic and marine structures. The results of 52 clear-water scour experiments on 4 CP models are reported which can be valuable to hydraulic design of a CP. The 4 models had different values of pile cap thickness and number of piles inline with the flow and were tested at different pile cap elevations. The duration of experiments ranged from 24 to 120 hours. Then a database of laboratory...

Prediction of groundwater level fluctuations is absolutely necessary for the proper manag ement of these precious resources. There are different methods to predict hydrological time series such as groundwater level. Linear models inefficiency in predicting nonlinear and n on-stationary time series cause researchers widely use artificial intelligence techniques such as Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), Fuzzy Inference System (FIS), Genetic Algorithm (GA) and their hybrid models such as Artificial Neural – Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS). These smart models are capable to simulate nonlinear and non-stationary time series in suitable accu-racy using by a few time and data. By emersion of Wavelet... 

Foundation is the lowest load-bearing part of a structure and a part of underneath soil that is affected by the structure load. In fact, foundation transfers the loads from the superstructure to the substructure, preventing excessive settlement of soil or stresses exceeding soil bearing capacity. Indeed, almost all structures are placed on the ground, therefore the effects of soil and structure on each other, which is known as Soil Structure Interaction (SSI), is considered as a key factor in many important and engineered structures. In contrast to structures on a rigid footing, a flexible foundation may show stiffness degradation along with an increase of damping and natural period of the...
