Determining the Optimal Irrigation Pattern in Agricultural Areas Using a Combination of Remote Sensing Data and the Development of a Lump Soil Moisture Model
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Danesh-Yazdi, Mohammad (Supervisor)
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to introduce a new indicator to estimate the amount of irrigation water in excess of the need and also to determine the optimal irrigation pattern to reduce water loss in agriculture. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, the major loss of fresh water takes place in agriculture, and the reduction of water resources is more significant in developing countries that do not have advanced agricultural equipment. One of the challenges in the studies related to reducing the amount of water used in agriculture is a lack of knowledge on the spatial distribution and temporal changes in water loss in a region. Although estimation of...
Computational Simulation of Turbulent Film Cooling, Using RANS/LES Hybrid Approach and Digital Filter Based Interface Boundary Conditions
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Taeibi-Rahni, Mohammad (Supervisor)
Abstract
Nowadays, hybrid LES/RANS approach is being widely used by many researchers. This approach uses the advantages of both LES and RANS approaches simultaneously. Hybrid approach is as accurate as LES, but its cost is much lower. The biggest problem of hybrid approach is transformation of data between RANS and LES regions. Before, precursor simulation and synthetic methods, such as Fourier series and synthetic eddy methods (SEM) have been used extensively to solve such problems. Precursor simulation is expensive, because of high cost of generation of data. On the other hand, Fourier series method is confined to simple geometries, while SEM has problem of programming. Interface condition in this...
Inclusion matrices and chains
, Article Journal of Combinatorial Theory. Series A ; Volume 115, Issue 5 , 2008 , Pages 878-887 ; 00973165 (ISSN) ; Khosrovshahi, G. B ; Maysoori, Ch ; Mohammad Noori, M ; Sharif University of Technology

Abstract
Given integers t, k, and v such that 0 ≤ t ≤ k ≤ v, let Wt k (v) be the inclusion matrix of t-subsets vs. k-subsets of a v-set. We modify slightly the concept of standard tableau to study the notion of rank of a finite set of positive integers which was introduced by Frankl. Utilizing this, a decomposition of the poset 2[v] into symmetric skipless chains is given. Based on this decomposition, we construct an inclusion matrix, denoted by Wover(t, -) k (v), which is row-equivalent to Wt k (v). Its Smith normal form is determined. As applications, Wilson's diagonal form of Wt k (v) is obtained as well as a new proof of the well-known theorem on the necessary and sufficient conditions for...

Abstract
In recent years, many advanced Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) methods have been developed for accurate and efficient simulation of fluid flow. The application of these methods shows that for sufficient accuracy, the mesh resolution has to be reasonably high. Unfortunately, conventioanal single-grid Navier-Stokes solvers suffer from poor convergence characteristics. For this problem we used Multigrid method to speed up the convergence rate. In this section a code was developed (based on the conventional CFD algorithm) which can solve Navier-Stokes equations on structured grids. It also simulates the free surface by VOF method. Agglomeration multigrid method is used in present study for...

(Supervisor)
Abstract
In this dissertation we will study the problem of transmitting the information of continuous source over fading channel, especially when the transmitter does not have complete information about the channel status. In this situation we will have a tradeoff between the Quality of received packets and the Reliability in transmissions. To increase the quality of packets, for example, we should increase the quantization, and therefore, the transmission rates at the transmitter. But this will also increase the Error Probability at the receiver. It means that if the receiver gets the transmitted packet, it will have a better estimation of information source, but it is likely that error happens and...
