Path and Cycle Factors in 3-Regular Graphs
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Akbari, Saeed (Supervisor)
Abstract
Given a graph G and a set F of connected graphs, an F-packing of G is a subgraph of G whose components are isomorphic to one member of F. In addition, if H is a subgraph of G, then an H-packing is defined similarly. The maximum F-packing is an F-packing such that it has the maximum number of vertices. If the F-packing F is a spanning subgraph of G, then F is called an F-factor. If each member of F is a path of order at least two (cycle), then an F-factor is called a path (cycle) factor. In this thesis, the focus was on the path factor and cycle factor in 3-regular graphs and these factors were investigated in 2-connected graphs, 3-connected graphs and bipartite graphs. Moreovere special...
The Relationship between Microstructure, Properties and Processing in Bimodal Polyethylene with Medium Density Used in Drip Irrigation Tapes
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Pircheraghi, Gholamreza (Supervisor)
Abstract
In recent years, Jam Petrochemical has produced and designed irrigation tape polyethylene grades but because these grades don’t have sufficient melt strength during high-speed processing, it hasn’t been welcomed by manufacturers. Therefore, in first step of this study we tried to characterize the specimens by using referenced grade and by taking advantages of thermal, rheological and mechanical analysis. We observed that main difference between jam petrochemical grades and referenced grade is related to type and content of comonomer and also long chain branches. Based on the obtained results, the ideal molecular structure of irrigation tape grade, include chains with bimodal distribution...

Abstract
Considering the microstructure-processing-properties relationship, the attempt was made to distinguish the main structural features of drip irrigation tape grades. In this regards, two different commercial polyethylene grades using for irrigation tape application (DB and MD samples) with various microstructural features were fully characterized by means of thermal, rheological and mechanical measurements and microscopic observations. A set of DSC techniques revealed that DB sample has faster crystallization kinetic probably due to its high crystallizable segments in chains and broad molecular weight distribution. It was found, the type of co-monomer used in DB sample is 1-hexene and in MD...
The existence of uniform hypergraphs for which the interpolation property of complete coloring fails

Abstract
In 1967 Harary, Hedetniemi, and Prins showed that every graph G admits a complete t-coloring for every t with χ(G)≤t≤ψ(G), where χ(G) denotes the chromatic number of G and ψ(G) denotes the achromatic number of G which is the maximum number r for which G admits a complete r-coloring. Recently, Edwards and Rza̧żewski (2020) showed that this result fails for hypergraphs by proving that for every integer k with k≥9, there exists a k-uniform hypergraph H with a complete χ(H)-coloring and a complete ψ(H)-coloring, but no complete t-coloring for some t with χ(H)
Frame Rate Upconversion Using Image Registration Techniques on Echocardiography
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Fatemizadeh, Emadoddin (Supervisor)
Abstract
In this research a novel method is proposed which uses the concept of image registration to forecast frames as a new frame up conversion method. This frame rate up conversion method is specially designed for medical videos because of the medical structure of the none rigid image registration used as a field to forecast new frames which causes better results for these kinds of videos. In this method we interpolate new frames in the field of none rigid transformation grid in order to improve video parameters such as blocking, blurriness, etc. which can help doctors to detect abnormalities in such videos much preciously. By analyzing existing methods, we can find that this field is bereft of a...
Buckling behavior of the anchored steel tanks under horizontal and vertical ground motions using static pushover and incremental dynamic analyses
, Article Thin-Walled Structures ; Volume 112 , 2017 , Pages 173-183 ; 02638231 (ISSN) ; Rahimzadeh Rofooei, F ; Khajeh Ahmad Attari, N ; Sharif University of Technology

Abstract
This paper investigates the static and dynamic buckling of an anchored cylindrical steel tank subjected to horizontal and vertical ground acceleration. The buckling capacity of the tank is estimated using static pushover (SPO) and incremental dynamic analyses (IDA). Appropriate load patterns due to the horizontal and vertical components of ground excitations are utilized for SPO analyses. The buckling capacity curves and critical buckling loads computed using SPO analyses are compared to those obtained from IDA. A proper vertical to horizontal acceleration ratio (av/ah) for SPO analysis is proposed that leads to good agreement between SPO and IDA results. © 2017

Abstract
Modeling and controlling the fuel slosh phenomenon in a satellite is a vital problem in the field of satellite attitude control. In this paper, a satellite with a partially filled spherical fuel tank that uses diaphragm as a propellant management device (PMD), has been considered. The fuel slosh dynamics is modeled by a spherical pendulum with two degrees of freedom (DOF) and a rigid arm, which represents the first mode of sloshing. The effects of the diaphragm that surround the fuel surface, are considered as torsional spring-damper attached to the satellite body. The coupled equations of satellite motion and fuel are derived using the Lagrange method. The nonlinear control method based on...

Investigating the Effect of Soil-Structure Interaction on the Buckling Behavior of Anchored Steel Cylindrical Tanks using Absorbing Boundaries
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Rahimzadeh Rofooei, Fayaz (Supervisor) ; Sobhan, Mohammad Saeed (Supervisor)
Abstract
This research investigates the effect of soil-structure interaction on the buckling behavior of an above-ground storage tanks. For this purpose, a steel tank with a height-to-diameter ratio of 0.4 was selected. Four types of support conditions including a fixed-based condition and three soil islands with a depth of 30 meters, assuming a uniform stiff soil and a two-layered soil consisting of stiff and medium soil, and a three-layer soil with stiff, medium, and soft layers. The tank and soil were modeled using the finite element method, and absorbing boundaries were applied around the soil island to simulate the semi-infinite soil domain. After validating the modeling through parametric and...

Seismic Response and Buckling behavior of Aboveground Cylindrical Steel Tanks
, Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology ; Rahimzadeh Rofooei, Fayaz (Supervisor) ; Khaje Ahmad Attari, Nader (Co-Advisor)
Abstract
In this study, the seismic response of aboveground, anchored cylindrical steel tanks subjected to horizontal and vertical ground acceleration is investigated. The buckling capacity of the steel tanks is estimated using static pushover (SPO) and incremental dynamic analyses (IDA). Finite element models of a broad tank and a tall tank with height to diameter ratios (H/D) of 0.40, 0.80 and with a liquid level of 90% of the height of the cylinder were used in this study. Appropriate load patterns due to the horizontal and vertical components of ground excitations are utilized for SPO analyses. The influence of the vertical component of ground acceleration on buckling capacity curve of the tank...

Abstract
OBJECTIVE: This study aims to benchmark a Monte Carlo (MC) model of the 18 MV photon beam produced by the Siemens Oncor® linac using the BEAMnrc and DOSXYZnrc codes. METHODS: By matching the percentage depth doses and beam profiles calculated by MC simulations with measurements, the initial electron beam parameters including electron energy, full width at half maximum (spatial FWHM), and mean angular spread were derived for the 10×10 cm2 and 20×20 cm2 field sizes. The MC model of the 18 MV photon beam was then validated against the measurements for different field sizes (5×5, 30×30 and 40×40 cm2) by gamma index analysis. RESULTS: The optimum values for electron energy, spatial FWHM and mean...
