    An Approach to Optimize Resource Allocation and Strategies to Control Infectious Diseases

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Mohammadi, Ahmad (Author) ; Najafi, Mehdi (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Infectious diseases have always been a threat to mankind, and is the greatest causes of death of children and young people. Although this type of diseases is a serious threat to public health; the allocated resources in responding to a semi-large pandemic is inadequate. Therefore, it is important to spend the resources in the most effective and efficient ways to improve pandemic response capability. That is why considerable research be devoted to study different aspects of epidemics, and developed mathematical approaches to choose appropriate strategies in pandemic response. Since the epidemic models are simplified means to describe the transmission of disease, researchers often use these... 

    Gauge Theory and Topological Order: Superconducting Chains

    , Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology Mohammadi, Fatemeh (Author) ; Kargarian, Mehdi (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Notwithstanding massive efforts put forward in the last few decades, the experimental realization of quantum states with topological orders in a controlled way and accessible conditions has remained elusive. The realization of such states in fractional quantum Hall states requires extreme conditions like the cryogenic temperatures and strong magnetic fields. Also, the existence of a pure topological order in spin liquid materials is limited by disorder, subleading interactions, or lack of enough experimental information. Alternatively, we may think of extrinsic models to simulate the exotic phases by combining a set of naturally accessible quantum systems. Our approach involves the...

    Theoretical and Numerical Analysis of Shock Waves Propagation in Porous Medium

    , Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology Nemati Hayati, Ali (Author) ; Ahmadi, Mohammad Mehdi (Supervisor) ; Mohammadi, Soheil ($item.subfieldsMap.e)
    Abstract
    Particulate porous mateials have always been of interest in terms of reducing shock waves effects in different protective applications. Therefore, the physics governing the flow in porous media is especially significant for which different models have been presented by the researchers. The complexities of these media have caused many existing models to be unable to properly predict the behavior of granular media under shock loadings. On the other hand, the complexity of the equations makes the numerical solution of them cumbersome and costly in a way that many researchers do not solve the whole coupled equations and reduce their number. In addition, current high-resolution TVD solutions of...

    Abstract
    Free-Space Optical (FSO) communication has received an increasing attention in recent years with its ability to achieve ultra-high data rates (at the order of multiple gigabits per second) over unlicensed optical spectrum. A major degrading factor, particulary in long links is the stmospheric turbulence induced fading. In this thesis, we use spatial diversity and use and make several contributions to the performance analysis of MIMO (Mutli Input-Multi Output) FSO systems. We use MRC(Maximum Ratio Combining),EGC(Equal Gain Combinig),SC(Selection Combinig) and yield significant performance improvments. Finally we import the charectristic of different beamshapes and yields performance... 

    Expounding the Meaning of Time in Evolutionary Process

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Arami Manesh, Saber (Author) ; Shafiee, Afshin (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    The question of the time is one of the obscure and challenging subjects which has been discussed as a mysterious problem in various civilizations. In ancient Greece, the question has been debated among the supporters of existence and eternity. We observe the words of Plato, on the existence of the absolute essence of eternity against the change and transition time instantiated as a conducted river in the Heraclitus view. Other discussions focused on the relationship between the change and displacement, or the the spatial relations to which Aristotle paid attention. With the passing of time from the ancient and medieval eras to the Renaissance period, along with the growth of the science in...

    Bond strength and formability of an aluminum-clad steel sheet

    , Article Journal of Alloys and Compounds ; Volume 361, Issue 1-2 , 2003 , Pages 138-143 ; 09258388 (ISSN) Danesh Manesh, H ; Karimi Taheri, A ; Sharif University of Technology
    2003
    Abstract
    The production of an aluminum-clad steel sheet by the cold rolling process is a more efficient and economical approach compared with the other types of processes utilized for the production of such sheets. In this process, high plastic deformation of two metals, aluminum and steel, is necessary to create the cold bonding between the intermediate surfaces. Therefore, the work-hardened sheet must be annealed in order to obtain a high formability. Heat treatment of the sheet is, however, difficult due to the formation of a brittle intermetallic compound of aluminum and iron at the interface between the layers during heat treatment. In this investigation, the formability of these sheets was... 

    Study of mechanisms of cold roll welding of aluminium alloy to steel strip

    , Article Materials Science and Technology ; Volume 20, Issue 8 , 2004 , Pages 1064-1068 ; 02670836 (ISSN) Manesh, H. D ; Taheri, A. K ; Sharif University of Technology
    Maney Publishing  2004
    Abstract
    The mechanisms of cold roll welding of aluminium alloy to steel strip has been assessed based on a study of interfacial behaviour at deformations of up to 60% together with the surface characteristics of peeled Al clad steel strip. The proposed mechanisms are applicable where the contact surfaces are degreased and then scratch brushed before the rolling deformation. According to this mechanisms the scratch-brushed layers are fractured shortly after entering the roll gap at a reduction of approximately 10%, which is about the threshold deformation for the roll bonding of aluminium to steel. The transfer cracks formed then become wider so that the distance between each coherent block increases...
