Double network (DN) hydrogels are a new interpenetrate polymer network (IPN) that are usually contain about 60-90 % water. Despite of this amount of water, they are though and strong. DN hydrogels comprise of two networks, the first one as the brittle gel, is generally high density crosslinked and the second one, the loose and stretchable network, is loosely crosslinked or even without crosslinking. Therefore, we used cationic polymer, chitosan, and anionic polymer, alginate, as the first networks, therefore, we used sodium phosphate for physical crosslinking of chitosan, and calcium chloride as the physical crosslinking agents for alginate network. Also, poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA), as the... 

Lead-containing solder alloys in particular Sn-37Pb is the most common alloy used in electronics industry, this alloy has the good mechanical properties and excellent wetting properties and low prices. Recently, increasing environmental and health concerns over the toxicity of lead combined with strict legislation to ban the use of lead-based solders have provided an inevitable driving force for the development of lead-free solder alloys. A group of these lead-free solders are nanocomposite solders that because of having the reinforcement nano particles exhibit lots of unique properties, such as good mechanical and thermal properties. The aim of this research produce a new tin base... 

In the present work, the effect of different methods of melting, remelting and solidification conditions on the microstructural evolution of IN100 superalloy was investigated. For this purpose, the superalloy was solidified within steel and ceramic molds to provide different cooling rates. Furthermore, the re-melting processes using ESR in the water circulated copper mold and ceramic molds, VAR and combined ESR and VAR were considered. The microstructure of alloy under different casting and remelting conditions were studied by means of optical and SEM microscopy and ESD analysis. According to our results, the ingot which was cast in the ceramic molds, due to lower cooling rate during... 

More than 70 weight percentage of using parts in diverse industries (such as military, civil, automobile productions and etc.) are produceed by the casting processes. For each one of the casting procceses, mold cavity is requisite for arrived molten metal in the mold cavity to get eventuated as a solidified part. Based on mold ilk, if the mold is permanent, the cast part must be capable to be remoeved from the the mold inside. For the non-permanent mold (asssuming multi-piece and non-monolithic), if the model requires to be removed from the mold inside after molding and before casting, only model (no cast part) has to be moldable (why for removing the solidified cast part from the... 

In this research, it has been trying to implement Virtual Structure method for formation flight of multiple spacecraft. In this method, a virtual solid frame with virtual center of mass is considered and agents are arranged in a formation with respect to the virtual center. In this work, a formation keeping control system is implemented in which a feedback from formation to virtual structure and vice versa is considered. The method is implemented firstly in a nongradient field and then developed into a circular orbit in order to investigate the in-orbital effects. An algorithm for collision avoidance, based on relative distances and relative velocities, was also developed. The algorithm was... 

A metal cylinder tank with composite coating is a pressure vessel which is made of a thin metal layer and a composite layer; like Graphite, and most of the loading is carried by the composite layer. In this study the penny-shaped cracks in cylindrical pressure vessels with composite coating is studied. These kinds of cracks are mostly initiated in manufacturing processes and they have crucial rule in fatigue life and load carrying of the structure. Although there are numerous analytical and numerical methods, they have shortcomings in the case of penny-shaped cracks problems. The strain discontinuity in the interfaces of materials along with discontinuity and singularity due to the crack are... 

In comparison to attitude control of a satellite which is widely used in practical missions, orbit control (espescialy autonomous orbit control) has been only recently paid attention. Autonomous, on-board orbit control, also called autonomous stationkeeping, means the automatic maintenance of all of orbital elements by the satellite itself. In this thesis, an autonomous absolute orbit control strategy for a single Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite is presented. When the satellite violates the control trigger error limits, then the controller is activated and calculates a sequence of orbital maneuvers that move the satellite towards its desired states. The absolute orbit control of the... 

In this thesis, it has been introduced Hardy inequality and it’s extends. The fractional Hardy inequality for Ω ⊆ Rn and f ∈ C ∞ (Ω) is:1f (x) − f ( y)2∫α +n2dx dy ≥ kn,α ∫f (x)dx( )αΩ×Ωx − yΩ M α x In this thesis we are going to introduce the fractional and derivative forms of Hardy inequality then the Hardy inequality will be proved to fractional form on Euclidean and Hyperbolic domains, and finally we will get right into Hardy inequality with remainder.
 

In recent years, most of the programmer’s problems are solved using Q&A websites, e.g. Stack Overflow. Since the number of users, questions and answers in these websites are rapidly increasing, manually moderating and enhancing the quality of the posts (specially the answers) seems to be impossible. Despite the various studies on issues with Q&A websites and facilitating their use, there has been no studies on the field of improving the quality of answers. In this study, we intend to provide an appropriate solution to enhance the problem of low-quality answers. In order to demonstrate the proposed approach, we recommend a tool called StImp, which is a plugin for Eclipse. Using this plugin,...
