The Standard Model ΛCDM which includes cold dark matter and cosmological constant components provides a good fit to a large span of cosmological data and large scale structures. Recent results of local measurements of Hubble constant rely on observations of type 1A supernovae have shown 4σ tension comparing H0 to the value inferred from cosmic microwave background observations assuming ΛCDM. The Hubble parameter appears in the cosmic microwave background as one of the standard cosmological model parameters. If these observations are not the result of statistical or systematic error, They could represent new physics beyond the standard ΛCDM cosmological model. The purpose of this thesis is to... 

In this thesis, we studied the oscillation of neutrino flavors and the measurement of mixing parameters through the detection of cosmic neutrinos at neutrino telescopes. Most of the astrophysical explosions predict the emission of neutrino flux and kilometer-scale detectors are under construction for the observation of these neutrinos. Detection of astrophysical neutrinos opens a new window to understand the neutrino properties and also the properties of astrophysical sources.In this thesis first we review the phenomenology of neutrino flavor oscillation and characteristics of neutrino mass matrix. By introducing a new class of invariants (under general transformation of lepton fields bases)... 

Excitability is one of the most important characteristics of a neuron. In 1948, Hodgkin identified three different types of excitability of neurons. Excitability an all of its types can be observed in Hodgkin-Huxley model of neuronal dynamics (H-H model) as a four-dimensional system of differential equations and in at least two dimensional reductions of H-H type models. By applying the theory of dynamical systems (e.g. bifurcation theory), one can give a mathematical definition of excitability.Excitability of the neuron is equivalent to that the neuronal model is near a bifurcation through which the state of the system approaches to a stable limit cycle. In this thesis, a two-dimensional... 

Neutrino flavor oscillations are clear evidence of massive neutrinos. It has been for more than a decade that neutrino physics became one of active topics in the field of particle physics and various experiments started studying the flavor oscillation of neutrinos. Unfortunately, experiments studying the flavor oscillations are only sensitive to the mass square difference, and they are incapable of providing more information about the absolute mass scale of neutrinos. Additionally, sterile neutrinos having non-standard interactions are under vast investigations and studies. Determination of neutrino masses and their effective number is among the most challenging problems by which... 

Modeling is one of the most important steps in analysis and design of structures. Most of the time behavior of floor diaphragms is assumed completely rigid in their plane in order to simplicity in practical design. Although this assumption leads to acceptable results in analysis and design of conventional buildings, erroneous results may assess in some particular buildings—for instance narrow buildings with stiff end walls. Accordingly, behavior of these buildings in future earthquakes opposes those were predicted in design phase, and they are so vulnerable since in-plane deflection of floor diaphragms are striking which cannot be ignored. This thesis investigates the significance of... 

This thesis deals with the financial risk management and coordination of supply chain members. To investigate this issue, two echelon supply chain consisting of one manufacturer and one retailer with a newsvendor inventory policy for a period is considered. The mathematical modeling has been used to find the exact answer. MATLAB software for solving and scenario generation is used for the analysis. In the proposed method, financial risk management, partial trade credit policy, coordination of supply chain members and cash discount for retailers, have been considered. According to the proposed method, the manufacturer can determine immediate payment at the start of the trade credit period... 

The acidizing operations have significant impact on productivity and production of oil and gas wells, so that wells having shell or regional damage are good candidates for well stimulation operations which could result in significant increase for efficiency or injectivity. Generally, the neural networks are nonlinear learning mathematical systems. In this project consists, At first, wellhead data of acidizing operation are collected in two Gachsaran oil field (38 wells) and Nar and Kangan gas field (35 wells). Generally, the neural networks are nonlinear learning mathematical systems. In the neural Network by using two algorithms, back propagation algorithm and Quick Propagation algorithm... 

Dialysis which is an imperfect but most common treatment option for renal failure is divided into two main types:"peritoneal dialysis" and "hemodialysis". Peritoneal dialysis uses a fluid that is placed into the patient's stomach cavity through a special plastic tube to remove excess waste products and fluid from the body.Hemodialysis uses a special type of filter to remove excess waste products and water from the body and is divided to two groups :Clinical and Home.During hemodialysis, blood passes from the patient's body through a filter in the dialysis machine. In this Study first the basic aspect of renal failure and principle of dialysis process are described.Then information about... 

Multiverse scenario has been recently addressed by physicists and they have found it useful in many areas of physics. In this dissertation, I have treated some issues about multiverse such as the kinds of multiverses, the arguments for or against multiverse, areas in which multiverse is introduced, etc. This dissertation has six chapters and an appendix. In the chapter one, some classifications of multiverse is introduced, and also some definitions of the concept of a world is presented. Then, my classification and definition of a multiverse and a world is introduced. In the chapter two, the concept of possible worlds in philosophy and its relationship with multiverse hypothesis is examined.... 

Understanding the complex dynamics of species populations in response to environmental and migratory pressures is essential for ecological and evolutionary studies. This study employs the Moran model to precisely analyze the population dynamics of mutant and native species on two interconnected islands under periodic migration. We examine three distinct migration scenarios: symmetric periodic migration, where migration probabilities between islands are equal; in-phase oscillatory migration with varying amplitudes, allowing for independent migration rates; and out-of-phase oscillatory migration, introducing phase-shifted migration patterns. Each scenario integrates unique migration...
