Abstract
In this paper, the concept of environmental capacity is developed to identify a convenient maximum traffic volume which will not reduce the life quality of residents. The presented method investigates the idea of traffic capacity under environmental constraints by calculating the maximum number of vehicles allowed on roads based on acceptable levels of air and noise pollutants. In this study, the permissible noise pollution level and permissible levels of CO and NOx pollution are considered for determining environmental capacity. Results show the significant difference between environmental capacity and functional traffic capacity, introduced by the highway capacity manual (HCM) as a...
Study of Viscoelastic Property of Fluid with Optical Tweezers
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Seyed Reihani, Nader (Supervisor)
Abstract
Viscoelastic properties of biological fluid play an important role on biological organs. As an example we all know that Red blood cells must have high flexibility to pass thorough thin capillary.This high flexibility come partially from cytoplasm and 2 dimensional membrane and partially from polymeric fluid inside the cell(hemoglobin). So, for recognizing mechanical properties of a whole cell we also need to study the same properties just for fluid inside the cell. for this general purpose through this project we are going to measure viscoelastic properties of any polymeric fluid by optical tweezers which has an ability for measuring displacement of micron particle with accuracy of nm. first...
How realistic is static traffic assignment? Analyzing automatic number-plate recognition data and image processing of real-time traffic maps for investigation

Abstract
Travel demand information in the form of the origin–destination (OD) matrix plays an essential role in studying urban traffic management and network design. The present study takes a novel step toward urban traffic analysis using data mining of processed images of real-time traffic maps as a location-based data model, in which the data were analyzed by software programs such as KNIME and Python workspaces and comparing the results with the conventional traffic assignment results. Thus, we investigated a real-time OD matrix based on the trip-per-vehicle by automatic number-plate recognition (ANPR) cameras for the congestion charge zone (CCZ) of Tehran, Iran. The obtained matrix was assigned...
Identifying and Rating Indicators for Measuring Iranian Entrepreneurship Ecosystem based on OECD Framework’s Domains with ANDE Method
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Yavari, Elham (Supervisor) ; Sharif, Hossein (Co-Advisor)
Abstract
“Entrepreneurship ecosystem” is defined as the elements – individuals, organizations or institutions – apart from the individual entrepreneur that are conducive to, or inhibitive of, the choice of a person to become an entrepreneur, or the probabilities of his or her success following launch. Entrepreneurial businesses operate locally or regionally and are therefore subject to local or regional contextual influence. Moreover particularly in larger countries there can exist significant variation in industry structure and economic base across regions, emphasizing the importance of regional focus. Adopting appropriate policies at the regional level need to have a deep and accurate...
A Method for Incremental Learning of Stream Data
, Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology ; Bagheri Shouraki, Saeed (Supervisor)
Abstract
Today, the pace of information generation, fast processing and instant decision-making is increasing. In this regard, one of the main needs in the field of data management and processing is stream data processing. Today's world needs new methods to deal with and analyze these data. Two of the most challenging aspects of data streams are (i) concept drift, i.e. evolution of data stream over time, which requires the ability to make timely decisions against the high speed of receiving new data; (ii) limited memory storage and the impracticality of using memory due to the large amount of data. Clustering is one of the common methods for processing data streams, without having basic knowledge...
Winner Strategies in a Simulated Stock Market
, Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology ; Zamani, Shiva (Supervisor) ; Yavari, Elham (Supervisor)
Abstract
In this study, we explore the dynamics of the stock market using an agent-based simulation platform. Our approach involves creating a multi-strategy market where each agent considers both fundamental and technical factors when determining their strategy. The agents vary in their approach to these factors and the time interval they use for technical analysis. Our findings indicate that investing heavily in reducing the value–price gap was a successful strategy, even in markets where there were no trading forces to reduce this gap. Furthermore, our results remain consistent across various modifications to the simulation’s structure
A hybrid deep and machine learning model for short-term traffic volume forecasting of adjacent intersections
, Article IET Intelligent Transport Systems ; Volume 16, Issue 11 , 2022 , Pages 1648-1663 ; 1751956X (ISSN) ; Gholampour, I ; Sajadi, S. R ; Zamani, A. H ; Sharif University of Technology

Abstract
Despite complex fluctuations, missing data, and maintenance costs of detectors, traffic volume forecasting at intersections is still a challenge. Moreover, most existing forecasting methods consider an isolated intersection instead of multiple adjacent ones. By accurately forecasting the volume of short-term traffic, a low-cost method can be provided to solve the problems of congestion, delay, and breakdown of detectors in the road transport system. This paper outlines a novel hybrid method based on deep learning to estimate short-term traffic volume at three adjacent intersections. The gated recurrent unit (GRU) and long short-term memory (LSTM) bilayer network with wavelet transform (WL)...
Applying Gamification in Corporate Entrepreneurship Culture, Specially Missionary Organizations; Through SafirFilm Case Study
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Yavari, Elham (Supervisor) ; Banki, Sara ($item.subfieldsMap.e)
Abstract
Although existing literature on organizational culture and its change process contains meaningful and rich theories but our studies show that there is no perfect and detailed framework on linking organizational culture change and corporate entrepreneurship culture. In addition to that, Gamification –defined as taking the game design elements into non-game contexts– is a fruitful and academically rich research area. Fortunately an idea proposed recently to explain a method for enhancements in organizational culture in general, and in corporate entrepreneurship culture in particularby Yavari and Jafarian based on using game mechanisms. In their paper "A Gamification-Based Method for Corporate...
Measuring viscoelastic properties of Red Blood Cell using optical tweezers

Abstract
Efforts have been made to study the behavior of complex materials in micrometer dimensions with various techniques. One of these methods is the use of optical tweezers for biophysical applications. Red blood cells, as the most abundant blood-forming cells, play an important role in the life of living organisms, and their unique mechanical properties are important. In this report, the study of soft materials is done using light tweezers. This work investigates micrometer particle movements in the optical trap and also, when they are connected to a red blood cell. The tweezers allow the Newtonian fluid viscosity, such as water and glycerin, to measure the mechanical properties of viscoelastic...

Simulation and Evaluation of Dosimetric Parameters of 125I Thermobrachytherapy Source with Ferromagnetic Core
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Hosseini, Abolfazl (Supervisor) ; Sheibani, Shahab (Supervisor) ; Poorbaygi, Hossein (Co-Supervisor) ; Mohagheghpour, Elham (Co-Supervisor)
Abstract
In the method treatment of thermobrachytherapy, the method of this project, simultaneously use of two processes of thermotherapy and brachytherapy is considered, which can be a more effective treatment for the destruction of tumor tissue. In thermotherapy, the temperature of the tissue is artificially raised to a temperature that leads to cell dysfunction resulting in cell death. In brachytherapy, the destruction of defective tissue is done by placing a source in the tissue. In the present project, we supposed to consider both mechanisms simultaneously for treatment at the same time. In this project, radioactive material 125I is used as a source of radiation emission for brachytherapy. In...
