    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Seyed Akhlaghi, Hamed (Author) ; Khazaei, Shahram (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    One of the main requirements in today’s computer networks such as the Internet is protecting the privacy of users. Hence, anonymity is a useful tool for privacy and provides user’s anonymity. So far, several protocols have been designed to provide anonymity but most of the times, attackers found a way to take advantage of weaknesses in the design and implementation of these protocols. There is a class of attacks,where attacker tries to relate clients of anonymity system to each other, regardless of the communication protocols they use, just by observing networks traffic.The MIX technique forms the basis of many popular ervices that offer anonymity of communication in open and shared networks... 

    Numerical Simulation of Nano-Impinging-Jet in Electronic Cooling Applications

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Akhlaghi, Hassan (Author) ; Darbandi, Masoud (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    With a fast progress in nanotechnology devices and components, e.g., MEMS/NEMS, heat transfer study in micro/nanoscales has become so critical for the systematic design and precise control of such miniaturized devices towards the integration and automation of Lab-on-a-chip devices. Demands in high heat transfer rates have returned the concerns to impinging jet cooling systems. However, studying impinging jets in the micro/nano scales is requires the molecular dynamics knowledge to analyze the true micro/nanoscale flow behavior accurately. According to the importance of this subject, we use direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method to simulate nano impinging jet gas flows. The thesis is...

    Abstract
    Chitosan was chemically modified by diethylenetetraaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) in different degrees of modification (DM = 6.1, 10.3, 15.7 and 20.9%). DTPA-chitosans were radiolabeled with gallium-66 radionuclide. The effect of several factors on labeling yield such as degree of modification, acidity and concentration of DTPA-chitosan solution, contact time and radioactivity was investigated. Radiolabeled DTPA chitosans were intratumorally injected to fibrosarcoma bearing mice and the leakage of radioactivity from the injection site was evaluated. In comparison with chitosan, all DTPA chitosans showed better efficiency in preventing the leakage of radioactivity from tumor lesion and...

    Abstract
    Abstract The torque exerted on the walls of a micro cylindrical Couette gas flow is studied using Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method and analytical solutions. An analytical solution for temperature filed under specified wall heat flux condition is proposed using a previously introduced power-law (PL) wall-scaling approach. The results of cylindrical Couette flow under specified wall heat flux condition are compared with those of isothermal flow. The effects of rarefaction, compressibility, tangential momentum accommodation coefficient (TMAC) and gas-surface heat exchange on the torque values are investigated for slip to free molecular flow regimes. The results indicate that the...

    Abstract
    Nowadays, Programmable Electronic AC Load (PEAL) is widely used to test various devices such as solar inverters, UPSs, filters, generators, and generally test all AC power and measuring devices. In this paper, Model Predictive Current Control (MPCC) is used for control of a programmable AC load. In each period, switching state that minimizes the cost function is selected and applied to the converter. Cost function is the square of the current components error. The effect of the horizon of prediction on the quality of the load current is investigated. To decrease the calculations burden, a limited search pool is used. Simulation results confirm that using two steps prediction horizon with...

    Abstract
    This paper investigates anti-Fourier heat transfer phenomenon in a rarefied gas confined within a lid-driven cavity using a novel flow decomposition technique in the direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method proposed by Stefanov and co-workers. An isothermal cavity with different degrees of flow rarefaction from near continuum to mid transition regimes was considered to investigate cold-to-hot heat transfer from ballistic/collision flow decomposition viewpoint. A new cold-to-hot heat transfer indicator in the form of a scalar product of normalized heat flow vector and normalized temperature gradient vector has been introduced for the overall, ballistic and collision parts of these vectors....

    , Article European Journal Of Operational Research ; Vol. 205, No. 1, pp. 98-105 Samarghandi, H. (Hamed) ; Eshghi, Kourosh ; Sharif University of Technology
    Abstract
    The general goal of the facility layout problem is to arrange a given number of facilities to minimize the total cost associated with the known or projected interactions between them. One of the special classes of the facility layout problem is the Single Row Facility Layout Problem (SRFLP), which consists of finding an optimal linear placement of rectangular facilities with varying dimensions on a straight line. This paper first presents and proves a theorem to find the optimal solution of a special case of SRFLP. The results obtained by this theorem prove to be very useful in reducing the computational efforts when a new algorithm based on tabu search for the SRFLP is proposed in this...

    Shock-wave-detection technique for high-speed rarefied-gas flows

    , Article AIAA Journal ; Volume 55, Issue 11 , 2017 , Pages 3747-3756 ; 00011452 (ISSN) Akhlaghi, H ; Daliri, A ; Soltani, M. R ; Sharif University of Technology
    American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Inc  2017
    Abstract
    This paper introduces a shock-wave-detection technique based on the schlieren imaging for continuum and rarefied-gas flows. The scheme is applicable for any existing two-dimensional flowfields obtained by experimental or numerical approaches. A Gaussian distribution for a schlieren function within the shock-wave region is considered. This enables the authors to access any desired locations through the shock (e.g., shock center, or leading- and trailing-edge locations). The bow shock-wave profile is described via a rational function, which could be employed for the estimation of shock angle. The relation between pre- and postshock flow properties along the shock wave with a high resolution...

    Transitional boundary layer over an airfoil in the combined pitch-plunge oscillating motions at low Reynolds number is experimentally investigated. The study is based on the data obtained from both surface hot-film and surface static pressure. Different oscillation zones prior to, within, and beyond the static stall angle of attack of the airfoil are considered. The hysteresis loops for the laminar separation bubble, transition, relaminarization points, as well as the airfoil lift coefficient are investigated and are compared for different types of dynamic motions. Two different types of combined pitch-plunge motions, constructive and destructive, are considered. In the constructive motion,... 

    Laminar-turbulent intermittency measurement based on the uncalibrated hot-film data

    , Article Measurement: Journal of the International Measurement Confederation ; Volume 156 , 2020 Akhlaghi, H ; Soltani, M. R ; Maghrebi, M. J ; Sharif University of Technology
    Elsevier B.V  2020
    Abstract
    A new technique for the laminar-turbulent intermittency measurement based on the surface hot-film data is presented. The existing techniques require data acquired from the calibrated hot-films which leads to the real wall shear stress values. However, calibration of the hot-films is usually very complex. In the proposed method, a technique based on the probability distribution function (PDF) of the acquired data using the uncalibrated hot-film sensors is presented and evaluated. The PDF is prepared for a reduced form of the quasi-wall shear stress value instead of the real shear stress value one. This leads to a standard normal distribution curve for the PDF in the turbulent flow region and...
