    Abstract
    The standard model of Cosmology (ΛCDM, based on the cosmological constant and cold dark matter) is the simplest model that many of its predictions match with observations. Large scale observations are one of the most important observational data in Cosmology. This type of observation reveals that the cosmos have a web-like structure at large scales called "Cosmic web". This web consists of dense regions full of galaxies (Knot), long filamentary structures (Filament), flat sheets (Sheet), and low-density vast regions (Void). The cosmic web is the most prominent representative of the distribution of galaxies and dark matter in large scales and studying it can provide cosmologists with valuable...
