    Laboratory Study on the Effect of Thermal Cracking of Heavy Oil

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Rahmnai Khajeh, Saeed (Author) ; Bastani, Dariush (Supervisor) ; Seifkordi, Ali Akbar (Supervisor) ; Safavi, Mohammad Ali (Supervisor) ; Shafeghat, Amin (Co-Advisor)
    Abstract
    The Visbreaking process is one of the Residue upgrading method, which, in addition to the production of mid-distillate products, also reduces the viscosity of feed. By reducing the viscosity of the feed, the amount of cutter stock is reduced to produce fuel oil. Since the refiners want to achieve the maximum conversion in the visbreaker unit, it is necessary to estimate the proper operating conditions and distribution of the products. Increasing in conversion in a visbreaker unit will lead to a refinancing profit. In this work, four Vacuum Residual oil from Iranian Refineries were selected for studying on visbreaking process. Experiments were carried out at RIPI-Petroleum Refining Technology... 

    Investigation of Ionic Diffusion and Mixing Phenomena in Polymer-Enhanced Low-Salinity Waterflooding Using Molecular Dynamics Simulation

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Abdolmaleki, Amir Hossein (Author) ; Ayatollahi, Shahaboddin (Supervisor) ; Mahani, Hassan (Supervisor) ; Esmaeilbeig, Mohammad Amin (Co-Supervisor) ; Pourkhiabani, Nahid (Co-Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Various studies have confirmed that water salinity and its composition significantly affect the efficiency of the waterflooding process. Field-scale operation of low-salinity water injection has been proven to be a cost-effective enhanced oil recovery (EOR) method which is also compatible with the environmental regulations. Although this method has satisfactory results, it faces some challenges, such as in-situ mixing of the injection low-salinity water with the saline water in the host reservoir. The salinity of the injected water increases, as it contacts the high-salinity reservoir brine in the pores. This phenomenon significantly impairs the efficiency of this technique, and increases...

    Abstract
    P300 based Speller systems are a typical application of BCIs that can be used as a communication device for users with spinal cord injury. In this paper, three different RSVP paradigms; single, dual and triple RSVP are compared in terms of character detection accuracy and ITR to find the optimal communication method for these users. Three subjects were tested to compare these methods in offline mode. The results of this comparison shows that character detection accuracy for the single, dual and triple RSVP paradigms are 0.78, 0.63 and 0.64, respectively. The mean of ITR for the single, dual and triple RSVP paradigms was also recorded to be 3.6534, 7.72 and 11.5 bit/min, respectively....

    Abstract
    As in many other methods that have integrated nanoparticles (NPs), the chemical nose/tongue strategy has also progressed greatly since the entrance of NPs into this field. The fascinating tunable physicochemical properties of NPs have made them powerful candidates for array-based sensing platforms and have enabled the development of real-time, sensitive and portable systems that are able to target complex mixtures of analytes. In particular, the unique optical properties of NPs have a key role in providing promising array-based sensing approaches. This review will describe the main aspects and processes of most common NP-based optical sensor arrays. The fundamental steps in the design of a...

    Abstract
    Organ-on-chip (OOC) platforms have attracted attentions of pharmaceutical companies as powerful tools for screening of existing drugs and development of new drug candidates. OOCs have primarily used human cell lines or primary cells to develop biomimetic tissue models. However, the ability of human stem cells in unlimited self-renewal and differentiation into multiple lineages has made them attractive for OOCs. The microfluidic technology has enabled precise control of stem cell differentiation using soluble factors, biophysical cues, and electromagnetic signals. This study discusses different tissue- and organ-on-chip platforms (i.e., skin, brain, blood–brain barrier, bone marrow, heart,...

    Abstract
    The present paper relates to an improved method for making surfactant esters, especially sorbitan monostearate and tristearate. Sorbitan esters of fatty acid, stéarate are derived from a reaction between sorbitan and fatty acid. Method of sorbitan ester production needs addition of catalyst. Sorbitan stéarate production was studied using chemical catalyst. Two steps process leading sorbitan production under atmospheric and vacuum pressure with acid catalyst resulted dehydrated product at optimal residence time of 195 min at 180°C for atmospheric conditions and optimalresidence time of 150 min at the same temperature respectively. Sorbitan stearate production was studied by utilizing sorbitan...

    Abstract
    Naïve pluripotency can be established in human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) by manipulation of transcription factors, signaling pathways, or a combination thereof. However, differences exist in the molecular and functional properties of naïve hPSCs generated by different protocols, which include varying similarities with pre-implantation human embryos, differentiation potential, and maintenance of genomic integrity. We show here that short treatment with two chemical agonists (2a) of nuclear receptors, liver receptor homologue-1 (LRH-1) and retinoic acid receptor gamma (RAR-γ), along with 2i/LIF (2a2iL) induces naïve-like pluripotency in human cells during reprogramming of fibroblasts,...

    Abstract
    Systems based on machine vision are used more and more these days. Machine vision is used widely in different industries for increasing efficiency and automating processes, and one of the reasons which makes these techniques so popular is the speed of producing more powerful hardware which in recent times became more accessible, so real time using of many algorithms is possible Our group is designing and producing a stereo vision based system for detection, tracking, and accurate speed measurement of multi vehicles in, both mobile and stationary status, different weather condition, day and night, urban streets and highways, which is now used by police for law enforcement. The system offers...

    Abstract
    Since 2000, many countries have achieved considerable success in improving child survival, but localized progress remains unclear. To inform efforts towards United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 3.2—to end preventable child deaths by 2030—we need consistently estimated data at the subnational level regarding child mortality rates and trends. Here we quantified, for the period 2000–2017, the subnational variation in mortality rates and number of deaths of neonates, infants and children under 5 years of age within 99 low- and middle-income countries using a geostatistical survival model. We estimated that 32% of children under 5 in these countries lived in districts that had attained...
