Analytical Approach for Calculating the sheet Output Curvature in Asymmetrical Cold Rolling: In the Case of Roll Axis Displacement as a new Asymmetry Factor
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Asempour, Ahmad (Supervisor)
Abstract
In the rolling process some parameters may cause the rolling process to be asymmetric, the most important of this parameters are unequal radii, friction and rotational speed of upper and lower rolls. The mentioned asymmetry factors change the symmetric rolling process to the new process called asymmetrical rolling process. Asymmerical roling process that caused from various asymmetry factor have been studeid for many years by various researchers from different directions with different methods.Among the most important of which was raised by many researchers, slab method was the most accuracy and acceptable method. Using the slab method researchers were able to calculate the force, torque and...

Abstract
In this paper, a less studied factor in the asymmetrical rolling process of sheets, namely the rolls horizontal displacement, is investigated using an analytical approach based on the slab method analysis. The presented method is capable of computing the force and torque of the process under different asymmetrical factors such as the rolls horizontal displacement, the interface friction inequality, and the rolls speed mismatch. A formula is presented to predict the outgoing sheet curvature induced by the rolls horizontal displacement. The results can be potentially used in producing curved sheets of various shapes by the asymmetrical rolling process. The analytical model is compared with a...
Probabilistic Graphical models in Recommender systems
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Moghadasi, Reza (Supervisor)
Abstract
In recommender systems, the available data structure is mostly in the form of a graph; Therefore, during the past years, graph based recommendation methods, especially Graph neural networks, have received a lot of attention. These networks obtain the representation of user nodes and items by aggregating multi-hop neighbors in different ways. Unfortunately, the existing methods are part of the Supervised learning scenario and due to the lack of data in recommender systems, they have faced serious challenges. These challenges reduce the ability to learn to representation nodes and the accuracy of recommendations. Recently, knowledge graph based recommendations have achieved excellent...

Abstract
Background and Aim: Aging often results in a decline in somatosensory function, and such changes are associated with diminished motor performance. Input noise can enhance sensory and motor function through a mechanism known as stochastic resonance (SR). This paper describes the development and testing of a new vibrating shoe to possibly assist the elderly patients in controlling their balance and decreasing their falling risks. Technique: The new vibrating shoe was evaluated to ascertain its ability to generate appropriate random and nonlinear vibrations. The vibratory shoe performance in two young subjects with decreased foot sensation and two elderly subjects in different static and...

Abstract
The heat transfer Magnetohydrodynamics flows have been potentially used to enhance the thermal characteristics of several systems such as heat exchangers, electromagnetic casting, adjusting blood flow, X-rays, magnetic drug treatment, cooling of nuclear reactors, and magnetic devices for cell separation. Our concern in this article is to numerically investigate the flow of an incompressible Magnetohydrodynamics micropolar fluid with heat transportation through a channel having porous walls. By employing the suitable dimensionless coordinates, the flow model equations are converted into a nonlinear system of dimensionless ordinary differential equations, which are then numerically treated for...

Abstract
The purpose of the paper is to develop a mathematical foundation for exploring the complex interaction of Coriolis and Lorentz forces with the electromagnetohydrodynamic (EMHD) flow of a power-law fluid inside a microchannel with wall slip condition. Both the Lorentz and Coriolis forces act orthogonally to each other. Mathematical modeling of the problem is based on a set of classical Maxwell and Navier–Stokes equations, which are subsequently solved numerically by employing an implicit finite difference methodology. The numerical solution thus obtained has been found to be in an excellent agreement correlation with the ones reported in the scientific literature, for some limiting cases. A...

Thin Film Thickness Measurement Using Colors of Interference Fringes
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Amjadi, Ahmad (Supervisor)
Abstract
There are several methods for measuring thin film thickness, however, for the analysis of liquid film motors [1] we need a method which is capable of measuring the thickness using a single image of the film. In this work, we use the colors that appear on thin films, such as soup bubbles, which is a result of light interference to calculate the thickness of the layer

Effect of Amplitude of Electric Field on the Rotation of Liquid Film
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Amjadi, Ahmad (Supervisor)
Abstract
By direct and alternating electric field applied to thin film of liquid suspended in the air we can spin out and control it. Rotation pattern depends on the geometry of the electrodes and the applied magnetic field. This is called a rotating liquid film (Liquid Film Motor). To determine the cause of rotation, different models have been proposed. In this project we have tried to check the accuracy of any of the models. Using particle velocimetry using the photo, we calculate the velocity pattern. Then, using the Navier-Stokes equation calculate the acceleration and viscosity from the velocity. Then, for a special arrangement using a finite diffrent method, electric potential and the electric...

Ultrasound waves have attracted substantial attention due to their potential for trapping the small particles, which cannot be handled by usual tweezers. The acoustic tweezer is a technology that is able to tarp and control the movement of micrometer to millimeter objects by standing or focused sound waves. Acoustic tweezers are the subject of many researches around the world, due to simplicity, cost-effective, biocompatibility and most important better performance in non-transparent optical environments, compared with optical tweezers.In this project, by using a ring piezoelectric and a power amplifier, an acoustic tweezer was designed and constructed. Moreover, the polystyrene particles...

Abstract
Climate change impacts especially on temperature and precipitation, may have various effects on agriculture and water demand of agriculture sector in different regions around the world. Based on numerous researches, these effects may be positive in a region while another region might endure negative effects. Therefore carrying out researches and developing methods to predict these impacts as well as mitigating strategies seem to be essential. The most worldwide accepted method is using global circulation models (GCMs) outputs under different greenhouse gases emission scenarios, and according to Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) assessments. IPCC claims that the most recent...

Abstract
Illegal money lending has become a growing issue in Malaysia, especially with the activities of the Ah Long syndicate. This practice poses a significant threat not only to the country's financial integrity but also to the welfare of its citizens. The dual legal system in Malaysia, where civil and Shari’ah laws coexist, makes it challenging to regulate these activities. Despite the efforts made by the Central Bank of Malaysia to curb illegal lending, many Malaysians still resort to Ah Long loans due to limited access to inclusive financial services. In 2021 alone, over 20,000 complaints of violence related to Ah Long's activities were reported. To address this issue, a Shari’ah-compliant...

Abstract
The Hamas attack on Israel on 7 October 2023 has amplified debate on the longstanding Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which has persisted for more than a century. This article dissects the legitimacy and ethical implications of Israel’s military actions in Palestine and argues that the thin line between self-defence and aggression has been excessively surpassed by Israel’s actions against the Palestinians. to the analysis of this article is the application of Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations and also an assessment of the implication of genocide in light of Israel’s actions. This article presents a scrutiny of ramifications of Israel’s invocation of self-defence in the...
