Abstract
An existing hydroelastic model is extended for a flat plate subjected to a compression force with spiral spring boundary conditions during water entry. Both vertical and oblique impacts of the plate into calm water are investigated. A longitudinal strip of the plate is analyzed by fully coupling hydrodynamic pressure with elastic responses. Hydrodynamic pressure is determined by potential flow theory and plate deflections are expressed in terms of dry normal modes. The plate deflections are validated through comparison with available asymptotic models, semi-analytical and experimental results. The effect of compression force on the plate deflection is investigated at the midpoint considering...
Hydroelastic criterion for an inclined flat plate in vertical and oblique impacts
, Article Applied Ocean Research ; Volume 79 , 2018 , Pages 173-183 ; 01411187 (ISSN) ; Rahbar Ranji, A ; Haddadpour, H ; Sharif University of Technology
2018
Abstract
A two-dimensional semi-analytical model is applied for the analysis of hydroelastic effect during vertical and oblique impacts of flexible inclined plates with different boundary conditions (BCs). Hydrodynamic pressure is calculated using Wagner's theory and the structural deformation is presented as a linear combination of dry normal modes. A longitudinal strip is used as an approximation of the longitudinal bending of a plate. Model predictions are validated by comparing with the available experimental data, semi-analytical model, and asymptotic approaches for vertical and oblique impacts of the plate with different BCs. The water impact is analyzed with two viewpoints of rigid and...

Abstract
A hydroelastic hybrid model is developed to simulate the fluid-structure interaction in water entry problems using the partitioned approach. The interactions between a flat plate and the water are modeled by a hydroelastic model using explicit and implicit couplings. Both couplings are unstable due to numerical instability associated with the fluid added mass. To overcome the instability, an extended Wagner's model is combined with the hydroelastic model, and a hybrid model is developed. The extended Wagner's model is the extension of the classical Wagner's model that is used to estimate the fluid inertial, damping, and restoring forces of a flexible plate within the potential flow theory....
Structural Design of a Launch Vehicle with Reusable First Stage
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Haddadpour, Hassan (Supervisor)
Abstract
Aerodynamics loads and aeroheating during reentry, are one of the challenging issues in designing One of the main challenges in the design and application of reusable spacecrafts is the aerodynamic and thermal loads acting on their structures during reentry into the atmosphere. For this reason, all the concepts/prototypes presented in the 20th century were either not fully reusable, or were partially canceled, or did not have economic justification. In this report, the aerodynamic loads on the first stage of a launch vehicle during the launch and return phases have been investigated. Due to the fact that the main part of the first stage of the vehicle includes fuel and oxidizer tanks, the...

Abstract
The collision of moderately large asteroids and comets also referred to as Near-Earth Objects (NEO's) with earth would have catastrophic consequences. Such events have occurred in the past and may occur again in the future. However, for the first time in known history, humanity may have the technology required to counter this threat. Methods studied for mitigation of this hazard are based on deflecting asteroid's trajectory and are normally divided into two basic categories: high energy impulsive methods, and long-duration low-thrust methods. Two parts of mission to be optimized are the trajectory of spacecraft to reach the target and the deflection strategy which could be analyzed by the...

, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Sayyaadi, Hassan (Supervisor) ; Salarieh, Hassan (Co-Advisor)
Abstract
The main purpose of the present thesis is to establish a decentralized controller for some car–like multi robots to follow and hunt moving targets. Robots are very similar to actual cars considering geometric dimensions, mass and moment of inertia and so on; and outputs of the controller are steering-wheel and driving-wheel torques appropriately. Dynamics of the moving target is so that it escapes from the robots. Robots are equipped with antenna for getting wireless sensory signals, including range and bearing sensors. Kalman filter is used for estimation the target relative position and speed and robots state variables. The controller is designed for doing the above mentioned group...

Abstract
This research proposes a novel hybrid method for stock price index forecasting relying on technical analysis, the fundamental analysis of capital market, neural networks technology, and fuzzy logic. The new method shows a good performance comparing complicated and time-consuming forecasting methods. Several factors influence stock price; for example, an important one is the previous trend of stock price. Fortunately, by developing technical analysis and introducing the various indices of this method the maximum use of historical data is made in order to forecast future prices. Another kind of factors is macro-economic variables that their influence on the long-term trends of the stock...
Control of a Group of Mobile Manipulators for Cooperative object Transportation
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Sayyadi, Hassan (Supervisor)
Abstract
In this thesis control of wheeled mobile manipulators for cooperative object transportation is investigated. Full dynamic model of a mobile manipulator with a three wheeled mobile base and a three DOF manipulator is derived using Gibbs-Appell method. Input-output linearization technique is used to control individual robots. Transporting the object is divided into two steps, first robots use a decentralized behavior-based method to approach and surround the object. Then virtual structure method is used to control the robots to transport the object cooperatively. Simulation results with three robots handling an object are presented to show the effectiveness of proposed method

Abstract
In this work dynamic behavior of a two body TSS with main satellite as rigid body is studied and effects of tether elasticity and tension on the satellite dynamic are indicated in station keeping phase and circular orbit. Also a simplified modeling is introduced which could be used in nonlinear controller design. Lagrange and extended Lagrange method is used to derive equations of motion. It is shown that longitudinal vibration of tether has small effect on satellite attitude and angular velocity and because of high frequency it can be decoupled from satellite dynamic. In the simplified model, orbital motion is decoupled from equations of TSS and main satellite dynamic. Effect of decoupling...
Analysis of Control of Nonlinear Switched Systems
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Zohoor, Hassan (Supervisor)
Abstract
Separate analysis of modern systems by continuous or discrete theories is not possible, because they cannot solely express the detailed descriptions of a system. As a result of this, researchers are motivated to study hybrid systems. Specific class of hybrid systems which consists of several continuous subsystems and a rule that specifies how to switch between them, is called a switched system. Recently, many studies have been done on the stability and control of switched systems. In this regard, the goal of present study is presenting applications of switched systems using two control methods. The first application is control of a chemical reactor system with multiple modes. We presented...
Design and Analysis of a Cable Based Robot Similar to a Human Hand
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Zohoor, Hassan (Supervisor)
Abstract
The application of manipulators is becoming more and more popular in objects handling especially when it is desired to have access to remote areas in destructive or hazardous taskspaces. For this purpose, a hand-like mechanism must be designed to be used as an end-effector, which can grasp objects. In this paper a cable driven grasping mechanism has been presented. In the proposed mechanism each finger consists of three phalanxes which are actuated by a single motor. Also, locking and unlocking constraints are used in the mechanism in order to generate an anthropomorphic motion, in which, the order of reaching phalanxes to the object is sequential, in such a way that each phalanx starts...

, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Abolhassani, Hassan (Supervisor)
Abstract
Sensor Observation Service (SOS) which is defined by Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) Sensor Web Enablement group is a Web service specification in order to standardize the way sensors and sensor data are discovered and accessed on the Sensor Web. Multiple instances of this service can be implemented around the world, providing huge amount of data every moment. Each of these services operates in specific domain of knowledge (thematic), spatial and temporal dimensions. One way to reveal the underlying data over all of them is to provide an architecture for data integration to allow the user to query sensor data without the knowledge of the infrastructure components. In this research, a novel...

, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Sayyaddi, Hassan (Supervisor)
Abstract
Rotating machinery are found in most industrial units, that are highly susceptible to transverse cross sectional cracks due to fatigue. The vibration pattern of a rotor system reflects the mechanical parameter changes in the system. These vibrations can be used for identifying the cracks and appropriate actions can be taken to prevent more damage to the system. The dynamic behavior of cracked rotor is a subject of considerable current interest. Several researchers have developed models of cracked rotor systems. Therefore, In this thesis, the influence of the presence of transverse cracks in a simple Jeffcott rotor is analyzed. In first, on the basis of fracture mechanics, the direct and...

Abstract
The problem of Origination of The Universe is one of the most important issues in the history of philosophy whether in western edition or in Islamic thought. The most problematic aspect of the Origination is Temporal Origination. From about 30 years ago as a result of the works of a famous American philosopher William Lane Craig, the debate between temporality and Eternity of the Universe became a fresh topic in western philosophy. In this research we want to survey the philosophical arguments for and against the temporality of the Universe based on the views of: W.L.Craig, Q.Smith and Allamah S.M.H Al-Tabatabaie.
