Web servers and web applications are susceptible to different attacks. In order to detect web-based attacks Intrusion detection systems (IDS) should be equipped with a large number of signatures. Unfortunately various types of web threats are increasingly growing and so detection and prevention of all these new and old attacks is exhaustive and really difficult.This thesis represents a designed system for intrusion detection that uses different techniques to discover vulnerabilities with derived patterns and also some user behavior based attacks against web applications. This was done by using new dataset which was generated by new log file.The primary objective of this thesis shows the... 

Metal matrix composites (MMC) and metal foams (MF) have been the topic of numerous researches during the last decades. The appropriate mechanical and physical properties of these materials make them useful in various industries. In this research, a unique approach is introduced for producing MMCs and MFs in which accumulative roll bonding (ARB) is employed in order to achieve a homogeneous distribution of ceramic particles in the metal matrix. Also, foamed structures can be made by subjecting Al/TiH2 composite to an appropriate annealing heat treatment where TiH2 particles decompose to hydrogen and titanium. In this work, the effect of number of ARB cycles on the size and distribution of... 

In the recnt decades, traffics and airpolution are the most impoetant concerns of researchers in the field of city transportation. One of the most successful ways to overcome these poblems is to ustilize two-wheeled, one axis balancing vehicles. These vehicles occupies a small sapace, consumes less energy and its considerable maneuverability, makes it the best option to reform in-city transportation system. The newly introduced model of these robots incorporates a passenger cabin and a strick to control its movement. Unfortunately, in all of the recent studies, robots dynamics and controller system are base on optimistic hypothesis, which is no slippage between ground and wheels. Even in the... 

The primary purpose of acidizing operations in the oil and gas industry is to enhance hydrocarbon production. Acidizing has been a common and conventional method for years, especially when production engineers face issues like declining reservoir pressure leading to reduced production rates. Initially, the treatment solution is referred to as matrix acidizing. In acidizing operations, different additives are combined with the acid to control its behavior in the reservoir. These additives may include iron control agents, corrosion inhibitors, friction reducers, and more. Incompatibility among these additives, the acid, and reservoir fluids can lead to severe damage to the reservoir.... 

The goal of this research is the simulation of the annular combustion chamber of the turbine engine utilized by liquid fuel. The achievement to this goal will lead to create numerical tools for parametric study, analysis and combustion chamber designing.For this reason simple geometry has been considered. This simplicity of geometry causes to facilitate in parametric study and decrease in saving time for modeling and meshing. This combustion chamber is a simplified model of engine CF6. In recent study, the k – ε realizable model has been used for turbulence modeling. For non-adiabatic condition, chemical reaction is dissolved by utilizing probability density function along with laminar... 

In this work, the dynamic competition between firms providing internet services is studied. The framework is Markov equilibrium whereby structural parameters are obtained using two-step estimations, allowing for analyzing the situation in case of subsidies for service upgrade. The results show that such subsidy has little effect on the number of firms while increasing the number of fast firms  

During the last few years, the study of urban environment structures is considered as a research field of interest in remote sensing. In satellite observations of the earth's surface, continuous imaging in terms of time and space has caused the remote sensing technique to be proposed as a useful and efficient tool for the analysis of urban areas. Obtaining quantitative spatial information from the urban environment in fields such as determining the height of buildings plays an essential role in urban planning, monitoring damage to buildings, establishing communication bases and digital cities. During the last two decades, the use of Tomosar approach in order to reconstruct the structures of... 

Mobile edge computing (MEC) is a promising technology that aims to resolve cloud computing’s issues by deploying computation resources at the edge of mobile network and in the proximity of users. The advantages of MEC include reduced latency, energy consumption, and load on access and mobile core networks, to name but a few. Despite all the aforementioned advantages, the mobility of mobile network users causes the traditional MEC architecture to suffer from several issues, such as decreased efficiency and frequent service interruption. One of the methods to manage users’ mobility is virtual machine (VM) migration, where the VM containing the user’s task is migrated to somewhere closer to... 

Estimating the price elasticity of gas demand involves complexities depending on the gas market structure and pricing mechanisms in different countries. Distinguishing between supply and demand shocks and block pricing are among the main challenges that can cause endogeneity in elasticity estimates. Iran's domestic gas network, one of the largest and most extensive household gas markets, is divided into five climatic zones based on weather conditions. The pricing steps for these five climates during the five cold months are such that a customer in a warmer climate pays higher prices. Conversely, the pricing steps for the seven warm months are the same for all climates. This policy creates a... 

The correlation between religious adherence and voter turnout is widely studied. However, whether the relation is causal is an open question. We use Household Expenditures and Income Survey (HEIS) data in Iran, which encompasses nine distinct religious expenditures. These expenditures have low correlation with each other and represent different aspects of religious adherence. We use Imamzadeh (some historical holy shrines) as Instruments to estimate the causal effect of religious expenditures on voter turnout. The results reveal that religious expenditures influence both presidential and parliamentary voter turnout, with a notably stronger impact on presidential elections  

In this study steady state and dynamic simulation of an NFM extractive distillation unit for seperation of aromatics and non-aromatic components has been carried out. Column output composition obtained with experimental binary coefficients is compared with those obtainded by UNIFAC equation. The results indicate that using UNIFAC for all binrary coefficients results in an unacceptable error in concentration of benzene. If the experimental binary coefficents of benzene with NFM are used and the rest are calculated by UNIFAC equation, the simulation results will be very close to those obtained via experimental binary coefficients. Also it is shown that considering a constant efficiency for all...
