In this investigation, hydroxyapatite-carbon nanotube nano composite coatings were applied on the 316L stainless steel implants. After polishing with 1200 sand paper, stainless steel implants were coated via dip coating method. The specimens were heat treated at 350˚C after being coated with HAP and HAP-CNTs composite. In vitro test was done in simulated body fluid (SBF) in 1 to 4 weeks periods. XRD evaluation of powder obtained from sol-gel process, showed the presence of HAP and CNTs in the powders. Comparison of XRD results of HAP and HAP-CNTs powders showed the better crystalinity of composite hydroxyapatite. After in vitro tests, specimens were studied with atomic force microscope (AFM)... 

The aim of this project is investigation on synthesis and characterization of the TiO2-CNT nanocomposite films on aluminum substrate by sol-gel dip coating method. The pure TiO2 and TiO2-CNT nanocomposite layers were coated on aluminum substrate and heat treated in 400 C. In this work Ti-tetra isopropxide and different amounts of CNTs (5,10,15 %wt), were used for obtain the composites. The coatings were characterized by X-Ray diffraction (XRD) and the crystallite size of TiO2 was calculated by Scherrer formula. The corrosion properties of coating were examined by polarization test, and corrosion resistance of pure TiO2 was compared with TiO2-CNT coatings, and It showed that the composite... 

Carbon nanotubes were coated with boehmite nanoparticles by sol gel method. According to the TGA analysis, formation of gamma-alumina from boehmite was at 500 . SEM investigation revealed the uniform coverage of gamma-alumina nanoparticles on the surface of CNTs. Composite powders containing 1, 2 and 3vol% of coated CNTs were produced by mixing the coated CNTs with alumina suspension. Phase analysis of composite powder calcined at 500 showed the complete decomposition of boehmite and formation of gamma-alumina. Samples were shaped by cold isostatic pressing at the pressure of 180MPa and sintering was performed using two different methods of conventional and microwave. Existance of the CNTs... 

The main purpose of this research was functionalizing graphene, in order to achieve higher hydrophobicity, and producing nanocomposite of functionalized graphene and titanium dioxide by hydrothermal method, and sequently invastigation on photocatalytic properties of the powders and corrosion properties of EPD coated samples. Graphene oxide was synthesized by improved Hummers method and reduced and sequently was functionalized through the chemical process with hydrazine and octadecylamine respectively. Then the nanocomposite of functionalized graphene-titania was synthesized by use of titanium isopropoxide precursor and its photocatalytic properties were measured. The analysis of the... 

One of the most important parts of a cement factory is the cement rotary kiln which plays a key role in quality and quantity of produced cement. In this part, the physical exertion and bilateral movement of air and materials, together with chemical reactions take place. Thus, this system has immensely complex and nonlinear dynamic equations. These equations have not worked out yet. Only in exceptional case; however, a large number of the involved parameters were crossed out and an approximation model was presented instead. This issue caused many problems for designing a cement rotary kiln controller. In this thesis, we employed a nonlinear system identification method for identification,... 

Kinetic terms of effective action including derivative of classical field become significant, when we have a dynamical field.These terms have been calculated as a function of the fermionic propagator in NJL model, which is an effective model of QCD. In this thesis, after briefly reviewing
the effect of constant background magnetic field on the propagator considered by Ritus method, we explicitly determine the kinetic terms in terms of Ritus eigenfunctions. Finally, we numerically calculate these terms at finite temperature and chemical potential according to the imaginary time method  

In this research, the effect of feed flow concentration on the separation of gas mixture of carbon dioxide and oxygen was investigated by using supported liquid membrane in the presence of nano particles. In order to achieve this purpose, supported liquid membranes were prepared by impregnating a porous hydrophilic PVDF support with TEG, cyclohexanol, TEG/Fe3O4 nano particles and cyclohexanol/ Fe3O4 nano particles. Permeability and selectivity of mixed gases CO2 and O2 were examined at five different CO2 concentrations in feed flow, constant feed flow rate and constant total pressure difference.
In all tests, the permeance of carbon dioxide through cyclohexanol and TEG membranes was... 

Today, a new approach in the use of robots and the division of task between them to accomplish a specific mission or doing group exercises, has emerged. In fact, the main idea is that the multi agent robotic systems, soon is the most economically advantageous and will take variety of tasks that require distribution understanding of the environment (eg, search and rescue, surveillance, environmental monitoring and military operations). In recent years, the autonomous wheeled mobile robots, OMR, have special significance. This type of robots for independent control of translational and rotational motion, have the holonomic behavior dynamic that this means unlike other nonholonomic robots, be... 

Recognizing people mentioned in the text of narrations, is of the main importance in validating narrations in narration analysis. The problem naturally reduces to two sub-problems: Firstly, named entities related to narrators in the text should be determined. Secondly, if they are ambigous, the purpose of each should be clearified. In this resaerch, it is tried to apply pre-trained language models in soultion of the first sub-problem. For the purpose of entity linking with entities in a KB, graph-based model is suggested  

Stainless steels have many applications in different industries like chemistry, medicine and food production. So for using these alloys it is necessary to join them with appropriate method. In this research, microstructure-mechanical properties relationship of 304LC austenitic stainless steel transient liquid phase bonded using a Co-based interlayer was investigated. For this purpose, bonding was conducted at 1180 ℃ for different holding times. Microstructure of the joints was evaluated by optical microscopy (OM) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The results showed that isothermal solidification (IS) was completed within 1800s and no intermetallic compound was formed in the joint area...

Flow characteristics analysis over a wing, is one of the pioneer challenges in super and sub-sonic flow near flying objects. Taking into account of growing rate of low aspect ratio utilization, usually called Delta wings, investigation of vortex behavior over this wings is highly noticeable. In addition, the lack of research in this branch of Aerodynamics inside the country, considering it’s critical application, has doubled the importance of doing research in this filled. Experimental researches on super-sonic flow over a Delta wing is limited and there are not much accurate researches about vortexes in this category of wings. In this work, the main effort is to investigate the phenomena in...
