Strut-based lattice structures have outstanding performance in load-bearing and energy absorption, and have attracted significant attention in various industries, including aerospace, medical, and automotive. With advancements in additive manufacturing methods, the use of these structures has become more attractive and practical. This study examines the deformation patterns and mechanical properties of hybrid-layered lattice structures based on the octahedron unit cell. One of the main objectives of this research is to create structures composed of different cells with suitable compatibility in a layered arrangement. Twelve different structures, including uniform and hybrid configurations of... 

Given the growth of the world's population along with the increase in the percentage of urban population by 2050, the way of responding to food consumption will change in the future. Controlled Environment Agriculture will largely account for future food supply. Vertical Farming is one of these systems. But despite the efficiency of these systems in terms of land and water and also not being affected by weather conditions, the main challenge in these systems is the consumption of energy use per unit of crop production. The cost of energy is about 25 to 40 percent of the total costs. The purpose of this study is to develop an integrated dynamic model for the determination of vertical farm... 

Viewpoints of various interest groups should be addressed in any public service appraisal. Urban public transportation development and services have diverse impacts on users, operators and the community. The impacts can be characterized by a wide range of perspectives including: efficiency, effectiveness, efficacy, economic, social and environmental dimensions. Deployment of quantitative techniques, such as multicriteria decision making methods, would facilitate such a multidimensional analysis and appraisal. The objective of the study summarized herein was to shed some light on the perceived attributes pertinent to the Tehran regular transit service appraisal. The major services include... 

The goal of this research is to study the effect of local microcracking due to step by step pressure loading on the durability properties of geopolymer concrete. To better understand the behavior of GGBS-based GPC under different pressure stress levels, some experiments such as water permeability and water absorption conducted on the samples at each state of damage. Also, non-destructive tests such as ultrasonic waveform and pulse velocity (UPV) was used to quantify the extent of damage at each step. GGBFS and a blend of sodium silicate solution and 10 molar sodium hydroxide solution with SSSH⁄ ratio of 2 were used for production of GPC samples. GPC, OGPC and OPC samples with water to binder... 

Today, with the development of micro-technology in chemical reactions, the use of appropriate systems for the separation and purification of synthesized chemicals seems to be necessary. In this study, the continuous synthesis of bromide-lithium exchange reaction and the separation of organic and aqueous phase products in micro systems was investigated.The method used to construct micro-separator and micro reactor, a laser engraving technique, and thermal bonding of glass to glass.In the first step, the factors affecting the separation of organic and aqueous phase in the capillary micro-separator, such as the width of the capillary, the length of the capillary, the number of capillaries and...
