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... 

Blind Source Separation (BSS) aims to recover multiple source signals from mixtures without prior knowledge of the sources or the mixing process. This manuscript focuses on speech separation in convolutive mixtures, aiming to recover speech signals from mixtures that are linear combinations of the filtered versions of original signals. Most recent methods for blind source separation in both instantaneous and convolutive mixtures typically involve transforming time-domain mixed signals into the time-frequency domain using Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT) and conducting the separation in this domain. Broadly, the separation process is followed by two main approaches. The first involves... 

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... 

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... 

Optimizing optical tweezers and achieving powerful traps has always been a challenging topic for researchers , since the trap stiffness increases with increasing laser power which may damage specimens , especially biological ones and cells . In this thesis , we introduce a special geometry and structure of particles that , have the possibility to increase the stiffness (strength) of the optical trap and cause the magnetic response of particles at optical frequencies . Special geometries such as a combination of dielectric particles with magnetic nanoparticles that emphasize the role of the laser magnetic field and lead to changes in the electrical and magnetic properties at the laser... 

Nowadays, according to increasing development of construction industry in the world especially in the building area, the need to use technology and innovation for fabrication and maintenance of this industry has increased. And this fact becomes apparent that the use of traditional systems of construction isn’t tailored the countries’ requirements anymore. One of the construction industry’s limitations is the restrictions on architectural designs reys. The columns are among the most important components of structure and have a major role in bearing all gravity and lateral loads and transferring them to the foundation. The failure or destruction of the components in the structure under applied... 

Optical tweezer is a highly focused laser beam that could be used to trap micro and nano particles in three dimensions. It could be used to measure(or apply) piconewton range forces. Most of the optical tweezers experiments have been done in liquid mediums. In last few years, trapping particles which are floating in gas mediums(called aerosols) have been considered extensively. In this thesis, the changes in trap stiffness and conversion factor due to changes in laser power, trapping depth and particle are evaluated. It is shown that changing these three parameters, cause considerable changes in trap stiffnes and conversion factor. Linear behavior of trap stiffness versus laser power,...
