    Efficiency of Post-Tensioning Approach in Design of Bridge

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Shahbazian, Ashkan (Author) ; Khaloo, Alireza (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Post-tensioning is the most versatile form of prestressing, a technique which enables engineers to make the most effective use of the material properties of concrete, and so to design structural elements which are strong, slender, and efficient. Design of post-tensioned concrete structures is not difficult and, if done properly can contribute significantly to the economy and the aesthetic qualities of a structure. Post-tensioned building floors and bridge girders have found widespread use in office buildings, parking structures and bridges. They are also frequently employed in warehouses and public buildings. Now a days bridges and other type of structures, in many countries are designed... 

    Simultaneous least squares wavelet decomposition for multidimensional irregularly spaced data

    , Article Applied Mechanics and Materials, Guangzhou ; Volume 239-240 , 2013 , Pages 1213-1218 ; 16609336 (ISSN) ; 9783037855454 (ISBN) Shahbazian, M ; Shahbazian, S ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    The multidimensional Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) has been widely used in signal and image processing for regularly sampled data. For irregularly sampled data, however, other techniques should be used including the Least Square Wavelet Decomposition (LSWD). The commonly used level by level (sequential) wavelet decomposition, which calculates the wavelet coefficients in each resolution separately, may result in a gross interpolation error. To overcome this drawback, a different approach called the Simultaneous Least Square Wavelet Decomposition, which computes all wavelet coefficients simultaneously, have been proposed by the authors. In this paper, we extend the simultaneous LSWD... 

    The Impact of Unconditional Cash Subsidies on the Iranian Households Cigarette Consumption by Using Dose-Response Function

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Shahbazian, Arin (Author) ; Keshavarz Haddad, Gholamreza (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    This study aims to estimate impact of the energy subsidy reform on household’s cigarette consumption in urban and rural areas in 2010-2012. According to the household size,income generated from receiving cash subsidies is different across families. So to measure the household’s response to different levels of subsidies on consumers spending, the doseresponse function is used. Our main contribution is estimation and calculation of cigarette spending reaction to the unconditional cash transfer by dose of the subsidy that they received, while the previous works in this literature have used the well know binary variable of being on the exposure of program. In terms of being on the exposure of... 

    Geometrical Optimization of Aluminum Alloy Wheels for High Fatigue and Impact Strength

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Shahbazian, Shara (Author) ; Khayyat, Ali Akbar (Supervisor) ; Pasharavesh, Abdolreza (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    After the rise of the automotive industry, aluminum wheels have superseded steel counterparts due to their numerous advantages. Foremost among these benefits is their reduced weight, leading to fuel savings and diminished environmental impact. Moreover, aluminum wheels offer enhanced aesthetics and greater strength in comparison to steel alternatives. This thesis focuses on the geometrical optimization of an aluminum wheel model conforming to the standards set by Iran's Department of Standards, aiming to achieve a higher strength-to-weight ratio. While prior research works have mainly focused on weight reduction while maintaining strength within approved standards, this thesis aims at the...
