    Gauge Symmetry in Renormalization Group Flow

    , Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology Asnafi, Shima Sadat (Author) ; Ardalan, Farhad (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Exact Renormalization Equations (ERGE) are powerful non-perturbative tools to study the dynamics of Quantum Field theories, with respect to the change of energy. Putting cut-off on momentums of the system, is the specific regularization that is used to obtain ERGEs. This regularization breaks the gauge symmetry in the case of gauge theories. So the symmetry will be lost through the energy flow as well.Finding a gauge symmetry for a regularized system is the aim of this research. Also we have investigated the related ERGEs and the behavior of symmetry through the flow  

    Stability Analysis of Fractional Order Systems Described in Lur'e Structure

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Mousavi, Shima Sadat (Author) ; Tavazoei, Mohammad Saleh (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Most of the real-world systems can be modeled as closed loop systems which are made up of a LTI subsystem in the forward path and a memoryless nonlinear subsystem in the feedback path. Such systems are called “Lur’e systems”, the name of the first who introduced these systems. Because of the generality and the wide applicability of this type of systems, studying the stability of them has been notable and interesting to many scientists for a long time. Meanwhile, in recent decades, many scientists in physics and engineering sciences have been interested in applications of the fractional order systems and as a result focused on studying the features of the fractional order systems. An... 

    Drop formation from a capillary tube: comparison of different bulk fluid on newtonian drops and formation of newtonian and non-newtonian drops in air using image processing

    , Article International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer ; Volume 124 , 2018 , Pages 912-919 ; 00179310 (ISSN) Nazari, A ; Zadkazemi Derakhshi, A ; Nazari, A ; Firoozabadi, B ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    The formation of water drops as a Newtonian fluid and formation of a shear-thinning non-Newtonian fluid, Carboxyl Methyl Cellulose (CMC) from a capillary into different bulk fluids are experimentally investigated. A high speed camera is used to visualize the images of the drops and an image-processing code employed to determine the drop properties from each image. It was found that the properties of the water drops when they are drooped into the liquids bulk fluids such as toluene and n-hexane are almost the same while they differed substantially when they were drooped into the air bulk fluid. It is shown that during the formation of water drop in all three kinds of bulk fluids, the drop...

    Abstract
    We study Hydrogen sulfide gas detection properties of pure and 1% copper oxide added WO3 thin films. The spin coated deposits on alumina substrates were annealed at 500 C for 1 hour in order to improve the crystallinity of the films. The sensitivity of pure tungsten oxide is poor even at temperatures of about 100 C but the doped samples exhibit good response to H2S gas. Our data show sensitivity of about 1500 in 10 ppm diluted gas in air at 100 C. The films are sensitive to the gas even at 250 ppb (sensitivity about 2) H2S concentration at 100 C but with rather long recovery time. Crystal structure, morphology and chemical composition of samples were studied by X-Ray diffraction (XRD),...

    Abstract
    Worldwide interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) is designed to support a wide range of Quality of Service (QoS) requirements for different applications. Unlike the single service networks, a priority based mechanism is needed for specifying the transmission order of packets belonging to different traffic sources according to their QoS characteristics, which is called packet scheduling. In WiMAX standard, packet scheduling algorithm is not defined and its design is left for researchers. In this work, we propose a distributed uplink packet scheduling algorithm. In the proposed algorithm, when uplink capacity cannot satisfy the required resource of connections, according to traffic... 

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Nazari, Fatemeh (Author) ; Shamsaei, Abolfazl (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Entrance of air to close water conduits occurs in many ways. This phenomenon makes displeasing effects on water transport structures. Two-phase flows in closed conduits are studied experimentally, numerically and theoretically. Even after decades, due to the complexity of the subject, these studies still require development and reformation. Numerical and theoretical two-phase models are often limited to a special regime of flow."Volume Of Fluid"(VOF) is a model for non-mixing two-phase flows. "Fluent" software uses this model in this field of flows. Volume of fluid is used successfully in some problems like dam break or rising bubbles. Main disadvantage of this model is distribution of the...

    Design and Implementation of a Master Robot for a Fracture Reduction Robotic Telesurgery System

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Nazari, Kianoosh (Author) ; Farahmand, Farzam (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Common fracture treatments include open reduction and intramedullary nailing technology. However, these methods have disadvantages such as intraoperative X-ray radiation, delayed union or nonunion and postoperative rotation. Robots provide a novel solution to the aforementioned problems while having new challenges. The robotic system used in the study by providing more precise motion and exerting higher amount of forces makes the operation procedure more straightforward. In a normal operation 300-400 N of extension force would be needed which is fully provided by the surgen which leads to physical his/her (khastegi), by using the robotic system however, this force is simply provided without...

    An Uplink Packet Scheduling Algorithm in Fixed PMP WiMAX Networks with TDD Frame Structure

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Nazari, Sonia (Author) ; Beigy, Hamid (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Worldwide interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) is one of the most dominant cell-based broadband wireless metropolitan access technologies. Packet scheduling algorithm specifies the packet transmission order. In WiMAX standard, packet scheduling algorithm is not defined and its efficient design is left for developers and researchers. The existing researches in the scope of uplink packet scheduling, which is the most challenging packet scheduling scheme, consider only one cell. However the uplink available resources might not be enough when there are many packets that should be scheduled. To solve this problem, we propose an algorithm that uses the load balancing mechanisms that are...

    Effects of Re-Curing on Mechanical Properties of Concrete Containing Rice Husk Ash after High Temperature Exposure

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Nazari, Ali (Author) ; Toufigh, Vahab (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Research on the impact of high temperatures on the mechanical properties of concrete is crucial for fireproof design, safety assessments, and repairing fire-damaged structures. However, there is a lack of research on the effects of water re-curing on thermally damaged concrete. This study aims to explore how high temperatures and water re-curing affect the compressive behavior of concrete with varying percentages of rice husk ash (0, 4, 8, 10, and 12%). The compressive behavior was assessed by analyzing stress-strain responses and parameters such as compressive strength, modulus of elasticity, strain at peak stress, ultimate strain, absorbed energy, failure mode, and visual observations....

In order to solve the challenges in the cloud computing environment and respond to... 

    Stable throughput analysis for a cooperative WLAN with primary and secondary users

    , Article 2012 6th International Symposium on Telecommunications, IST 2012 ; 2012 , Pages 535-540 ; 9781467320733 (ISBN) Nazari, M. A ; Ashtiani, F ; Sharif University of Technology
    2012
    Abstract
    In this paper, we propose a new scenario in order to increase the total throughput of a WLAN. In this scenario, some secondary users (SUs) are considered in a primary WLAN such that SUs cooperate with primary users (PUs) in transmitting the primary packets. Each SU sends its packets as well as the primary packets collided at the access point, but overheard successfully at the SU, by random access the primary WLAN. We show that SUs cooperation is able to compensate their adverse effect in the WLAN, so total throughput in the WLAN increases without a significant degrading effect for the stability region of PUs. To this end, we use an analytical model based on open queueing networks. By solving... 

    On the minimization of the exit profile curvature in extrusion through multi-hole dies: a methodology and some verifications

    , Article Meccanica ; Volume 50, Issue 5 , May , 2015 , Pages 1249-1261 ; 00256455 (ISSN) Nazari Onlaghi, S ; Assempour, A ; Sharif University of Technology
    Kluwer Academic Publishers  2015
    Abstract
    In this study, a methodology has been presented for radial positioning of the die holes in multi-hole extrusion of non-symmetric sections. The objective of radial positioning is to minimize exit profile curvature. For this purpose, a two-hole die with non-symmetric T-shaped holes has been investigated. A kinematically admissible velocity field at deformation zone has been developed. The deformation region includes the dead metal zone (DMZ) which is assumed to be linear. The DMZ length was obtained by energy minimization through the upper bound method. To predict the exit profile curvature a deviation function has been suggested. Using the proposed function, the velocity field has been used...

    Taylor and Francis Inc  2016
    Abstract
    In this article, the extended finite element method is employed to solve problems, including weak and strong discontinuities. To this end, a level set framework is used to represent the discontinuities location, and the Heaviside and Branch function are included in the standard finite element method. The case of two arbitrary curved cracks is solved numerically and stress intensity factor (SIF) values at the crack tips are calculated based on the evaluation of the crack tip opening displacement. Afterwards, J-integral methodology is adopted to evaluate the SIFs for isotropic and anisotropic bi-material interface crack problems. Numerical results are verified with those presented in the... 

    Enhanced recovery and recycling of catalyst by post-impregnation of γ-Al2O3 with 12-tungstophosphoric acid for esterification reaction

    , Article Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering ; Volume 96, Issue 5 , 2018 , Pages 1176-1184 ; 00084034 (ISSN) Nazari, P ; Rahman Setayesh, S ; Sharif University of Technology
    Wiley-Liss Inc  2018
    Abstract
    12-tungstophosphoric acid, polyoxometalate with Keggin structure, and γ-Al2O3 were synthesized. Loading of 12-tungstophosphoric acid (HPW) on γ-Al2O3 was performed by the post-impregnation method. The catalysts were characterized by XRD, SEM, FTIR, BET, and DRS techniques. According to the pertinent observation, using the post-impregnation method promises the stability of polyoxometalate Keggin structure after loading on γ-Al2O3 support. The stability of 20 %HPW/Al2O3 was also confirmed by a leaching test. Textural characterization demonstrates that HPW on the γ-Al2O3 had a much larger surface area as compared with the pure HPW. The 20 %HPW/Al2O3 exhibited roughly high activity toward an... 

    A constructive genetic algorithm for LBP in face recognition

    , Article 3rd International Conference on Pattern Analysis and Image Analysis, IPRIA 2017, 19 April 2017 through 20 April 2017 ; 2017 , Pages 182-188 ; 9781509064540 (ISBN) Nazari, A ; Shouraki, S. B ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    LBP coefficients are essential and determine the priority of gray differences. The objectives of this paper are to reveal this and propose a method for finding an optimal priority through the genetic algorithm. On the other hand, the genetic operators such as initialization and cross-over operators, generate invalid coefficients, defective chromosomes. This paper also recommends a rectifying method for correcting defective chromosomes. Results on the FERET and Extended Yale B datasets indicate that the proposed method has markedly higher recognition rates than LBP. © 2017 IEEE
