This existing research has been conducted to reach quick evaluation instructions to pipe earthquake damages in the piping systems inside the industrial complexes. In the old complexes of such kinds there are cases where field inspections and quality evaluations are urgently required subject to peculiar conditions affecting each piping system inside the units and in certain cases subject to lack of access to the as built-drawings. However, so far any definite instruction hasn’t been available for a quick evaluation of likely damages in piping system: all because of various pipe types, complexity of pipes geometry, different temperatures and pressures in different sections. In this research... 

Given that the most polluting industries in the country there. A suitable treatment system for degradation of these compounds is necessary unless unexpected effect on environment will occur.Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor (MBBR) was developed to adopt the best features of the activated sludge process as well as those of the biofilter processes. MBBR has biomass growth on carriers that move freely in the water volume of the reactor. High surface area of carriers make a good condition for biomass attached growth. This system has had good operation in the urban and some industrial wastewaters.In this study, four reactor volume of approximately 16 litr and 6, respectively, in the aerobic, anoxic... 

Visibility graph is a graph that comprises information about visibility of a set of objects in 2 or 3-dimensional space. By constructing this graph with respect to conditions of environment one can answer questions like minimum Euclidean distance. Inverse of this procedure is required too; i.e. knowing geometrical structure of objects and information about their visibility we want to guess their location in space and, as the saying goes, reconstruct the environment. For example some methods to reconstruct specific polygons knowing which vertices each vertex sees is proposed. In this dissertation we try to reconstruct a 2-dimensional environment that only has two x-monotone paths (chains)  

The world around us changes almost every second, so the economy in this world feels it more by every single minute. When we look at the organizational structures, they experience lots of things for keeping the companies competitive and the human resources have the main role among the other stimulating factors.The human resource management and its improvements have done a lot in this century to organize and manage the human problems in organizations. After that those companies that had more effective strategies become on top of this important management system. By changing fast the work models companies experience more and immediate changes that may not happen even through the years. In this... 

The electronic health system plays a crucial role in modern healthcare, facilitating efficient data management, secure information exchange, and improved patient care. However, existing systems often face challenges related to security, privacy, scalability, and interoperability. The primary objectives of this study are proposing a system that ensures data security, patient and peer privacy, scalability, data integrity, deniability, traceability, secure data sharing, access control, transparency, real-time monitoring, and security in the drug supply chain. To achieve these objectives, we have proposed a system that encompasses a wide range of requirements of healthcare system. To enhance... 

Compared to systematically signalized intersections, in the absence of any systematic instruction or signalization at unsignalized-prioritized intersections and due to lower levels of control, driver performance strongly steps in as a decisive factor of intersection traffic and geometric design. Therefore, the study of driver behavior at these intersections appears necessary. This thesis aims to study driver behavior at four prioritized intersections where the minor stream has to yield right of way to the main stream in the city of Mashhad, Iran. Following extraction of raw statistical data from extensive filming, the initial database was constructed consisting of 29 variables. Based on the... 

” The story of the "Weil conjectures" is a marvelous example of mathematical imagination, and one of the most striking instances exhibiting the fundamental unity of mathematics.”In 1949,Andre Weil stated some conjectures on the zeta function of Algebraic varieties over finite fields .These conjectures were analogue of the properties of Riemann zeta function ,in particular Riemann hypothesis.In fact ,Weil built a bridge between Diophantine structure on varieties over finite fields (Counting of rational points on varieties) and cohomological structure of them over the field of complex numbers(topology of variety).In this thesis, first we state Weil’s motivations for these conjectures and state... 

Congestion is the inseparable part of everyday life in large transportation networks. Expansion of road networks especially in downtown area is next to impossible and it is resulting multiplicative congestion problems. Congestion imposes private and public costs. Therefore, restricting policies on road use through cordon-based or area-based pricing is proposed to reduce the negative impacts of traffic, travel demand management and optimal use of transportation systems. This would produce better resource allocation through transportation network optimization. Implementation of congestion pricing policies induces short-term and long-term effects. In this thesis, it is attempted to determine... 

Carbon dioxide is one of the most significant greenhouse gases in biocycle. This gas makes the equilibrium temperature by absorbing IR radiations on the earth. It is the reason that prevent the earth from freezing. Increasing CO2 emissions in atmosphere, makes problems such as global warming. According to the Kyoto Protocol, all the countries attended to this protocol, must decrease greenhouse gases emissions. Although H2 fuel is one of the best alternative fuel against fossil fuels, the most important industrial process (steam-methane reforming) produce CO2 as by-product. Thus, gas separation has a prominent role in industrial processes such as CO2 capture and H2 purification.Today, gas... 

In this research, nanocomposite containing reduced graphene oxide nanosheets (RGO) and trimetallic three-dimensional (3D) Pt-Pd-Co porous nanostructures was fabricated by galvanic replacement technique. First, GO suspension was drop-casted on the electrode surface, then GO film reduction was carried out by cycling the potential in negative direction to form the RGO on GCE (RGO/GCE). Then, electrodeposition of the cobalt nanoparticles (CoNPs) as sacrificial seeds was performed onto the RGO/GCE by using cyclic voltammetry. Afterward, Pt-Pd-Co 3D porous nanostructures fabrication occurs through galvanic replacement method based on a spontaneous redox process between CoNPs and solution... 

In the present work we first introduced ILIDS and review the theory of interferometry and light scattering from droplets. Bases on ILIDS method, droplets are irradiated by monochrome sheet laser, where the superposition of reflected and first-order refracted beams form a parallel fringe pattern at out of focus plane on the imaging sensor in the forward-scatter region. This pattern can be related to the droplet size by using simple geometrical optics. For the present work, an image processing algorithm is utilized to capture weak and noisy images of droplets to reduce the lost data in the sizing procedure. Since ILIDS method is applied for small and dilute spray, it is suitable for...
