Transportation of heavy and super heavy equipment is one of the issues that have been discussed in recent years. High cost and required expertise of Transportation for oil and gas projects has caused many organizations and Iranian companies turn to outsourcing strategy and have invested a lot of money in this field without regard to its Risks. Unfortunately, the lack of risk management in transportation projects has led to an increase in refractive index. In this thesis, have been identified the risks of heavy and super-heavy transport equipment in the oil, gas and petrochemical industries then prioritize the risks identified. Finally, each of the identified risks in Iran is investigated.... 

Understanding and interpreting the process that policy goes through from the agenda-setting stage to the implementation and evaluation stages have many difficulties and complexities. One way to facilitate the understanding of this process is to use theories that explain the policy process. The purpose of this research is to explain the process that has passed through the legislative bill of eight free trade zones and one hundred and three special economic zones in Iran in 2018. To reach this goal using two theories of Multiple Streams Analysis (MSA) and the Advocacy Coalition Framework (ACF).Due to the nature and aims of this research, the qualitative approach and case study method have been... 

Among the various types of black holes, dilatonic black holes can be mentioned which are in the center point of view at their extremality. In this study, we pay attention to these answers and their fields and the way they behave variously, especially when the coupling constant α is between 0and1. For doing so, in chapter one we attempt to study one of the simplest answers in General Relativity (Schwarzschild) and some beginning contexts. Then in chapter two, we try another answer (Reissner Nordstrom) which contains non-Extremal and Extremal states. In chapter three we introduce the concept of the higher theories. Chapter four is a hint about hawking radiation. And finally in chapter five, we... 

In this study as representatives of alkenylbenzenes and mono-alkylbenzenes respectively were considered individually and as binary mixtures. It was observed that styrene, and ethyl benzene were inhibitory types of substrates across the tested concentration ranges. Thus, biodegradation kinetic is well described by the Haldane model. Kinetic parameter's assessments from single substrate degradation tests and these parameters were used to predict possibly interaction factors achieved from dual substrate experiments. The achieved outcomes from mixture of experiments revealed that the ratio of depletion for each substrate is affected by the presence of the other. It was also inferred that ethyl... 

The airport terminal is difficult to plan and design due to the different components and the intricate complexity of its parts. At the airport terminal, we face a queue system which simulation is always a good way to analyze. In addition, computer simulation using modern softwares with the capability to model different types of systems, including the airport terminal, while being less realistic than analytical models, is less costly than operational Exercise.In this study, a supportive approach for better and specific management of Iranian airport terminal buildings with discrete-event simulation is proposed, considering the need for managing the airport terminals building in the country and... 

Producing from Gas Condensate Reservoirs under dew point pressure and at constant temperature may have a complex behavior because of existing two phase system and liquid around the well. Zones with different mobility generate as a zone away from the well containing only gas, a zone having liquid around the well and finally a zone with capillary effect. Existence of condensate around well reduces gas relative permeability and as a result productivity index of well decreases. In fact these condensate acts like an additional skin and because of some complex processes, investigating of these behaviors can be difficult.
Well testing analysis in Natural Fractured reservoir is generally based... 

The provision of developmental infrastructure by governments and their various effects on the lives of citizens has always been the subject of discussion among researchers and policymakers. In particular, the infrastructure associated with access to modern energies causes changes in household economic behavior. The effects of pipeline gas connection on household behavior is the main subject of this research. By using micro level data, these effects compare the behavior of beneficiary households and lack of natural gas. The data includes households living in the entire geographical zone of Iran and between 1377 and 1394. First, we show that natural gas is a direct substitute for liquid fuels... 

Limited water resources in Iran have made dams an important part of the country’s infrastructure. As a result of the large number of in-progress and expected dam projects in the country, consideration of sustainability factors during planning, construction and operation phases of dam projects can create significant economical, social and environmental impacts in the long term. To come up with an inclusive sustainable development, new sustainability assessment approaches seek for sustainable development at the entire project’s life-cycle; they are looking for sustainable development at all design, construction, operation, maintenance and even demolition phases. In this research we have... 

The objective of this study is to evaluate the seismic vulnerability of the existing buildings subjected to the near field earthquakes. The main applications of this research are loss estimation and performance evaluation of the existing buildings. That could provide a better solution and particularly more useful information to the owners, investors, and insurers about the expected performance of buildings under earthquake excitations. A number of 2, 5 and 8 story reinforced concrete buildings, designed according to the old Iranian seismic provisions of ISIRI-519 and ACI 318-83 codes for the ordinary moment resisting frames, are considered. By the use of a number of near field earthquake...
