Two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials are ultrathin nanomaterials with a high degree of anisotropy and chemical functionality. Research on 2D nanomaterials is still in its infancy, with the majority of research focusing on elucidating unique material characteristics and few reports focusing on biomedical applications of 2D nanomaterials. Here we report the properties and application of 2Dnanomaterials in field of bio technology while used main material in our project is graphene oxide for investigating its antibacterial properties. Because the properties of graphene oxide (GO)-based materials strongly depend on the lateral size and size distribution of GO nanosheets; therefore, GO and its... 

This study is an endeavor to model the interaction between transportation and land use, as a constituent of a joint land use-network design problem defined in the context of transit oriented development (TOD). Population and employment follow a Garin-Lowry model; the endogenously determined transportation demand is administered by a joint mode choice-assignment model; and mode choice is governed by a logit model. Equilibrium of population choice of place of residence, employment choice of place of retailing, and passenger choice of mode and path, are all governed by a maximum utility principle. An algorithm is devised to reach these equilibrium states by an evolutionary process, whose engine... 

This thesis presents a new approach to feedback active noise cancellation. The problem of Reducing the noise level in the environment has been the focus of research over the years. Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) is one such approach that has been proposed to eliminate Noise. ANC refers to an electro acoustic approach of canceling acoustic disturbance to Produce a quieter environment. The basic principle of ANC is to introduce a canceling “anti Noise” signal that has the same amplitude but the exact opposite phase, thus resulting in Reducing the remainder noise signal. We use neural networks based on system identification And predict control to cancel acoustic noise. Canceling acoustic... 

Mobile Broadband Wireless Access technologies provide mobile users with broadband services, for example music downloading, online games and etc. IEEE 802.20 standard is one of the Mobile Broadband Wireless Access technologies , which has been published to support mobile users with high vehicular speed up to 250(km/h). The issue studied in this research is enhancement of MAC layer in IEEE 802.20 standard.
By having this intention in mind we firstly developed a simulator for IEEE 802.20 MAC layer implementation , then we tried implementing 3 different approaches for connecting mobile users to a new network in order to analyze their performance. Then we provided a method for decreasing... 

Machine-to-machine communication (M2M) can be considered as one of the most important types of high-density communication in the Internet of Things (IoT). Therefore, how to send data using the cooperation of machines with each other and selecting the appropriate relay can play an effective role in improving the quality of network communication, especially when communication between sources and their destinations is weak. Since in the real world some of the applications used on a set of IoT machines require the similar bandwidth, we also followed this assumption. For this purpose, we went through three steps in this thesis. First, two new relay selection algorithms with static RF interface...
