    How do adsorbent orientation and direction of external electric field affect the charge-transfer surface-enhanced raman spectra?

    , Article Journal of Physical Chemistry C ; Volume 125, Issue 24 , 2021 , Pages 13382-13390 ; 19327447 (ISSN) Ashtari Jafari, S ; Jamshidi, Z ; Sharif University of Technology
    American Chemical Society  2021
    Abstract
    Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy is a highly sensitive phenomenon and a powerful fingerprint detection tool that reflects the small changes in polarizability on the pattern and intensity of Raman signals. The SERS enhancement signals elucidate with the surface-selection rules. In this regard, molecular configuration and adsorption orientation on the surface, in addition to the direction of external electric field, can lead to different patterns of SERS spectra. To evaluate how the variation of these features influences the pattern and reproducibility of the spectra, the chemical charge-transfer SERS spectra for pyridine on silver clusters are calculated for different field directions,...

    Bootstrap-based Ensemble Clustering of Resting-state fMRI Time Series

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Ashtari, Pooya (Author) ; Vosoughi Vahdat, Bijan (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Studies in recent years have shown formation of strongly functionally linked sub-networks during rest, networks that are often referred to as resting-state networks. RSNs not only have basic information about the brain but also play a key role in detecting brain disorders, such as Alzheimer and Autism; Consequently, they have been remarkably noticed by neuroscientists. Numerous methods have been used in order to extract RSNs using resting-states fMRI time series. Independent component analysis (ICA) is the most common method, whi have been reported to show a high level of consistency neurophysiology; however, its results is unstable in subject-level. is weakness restricted the ICA... 

    Multi-Scale Simulation of Metallic Nano-Alloy Compression Process Using Plasticity Cone-Cap Behavior Model

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Ashtari, Mehrdad (Author) ; Khoei, Amir Reza (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    The primary purpose of this study is to perform nonlinear behavior simulations in the compaction and forming of metal powders and their alloys and investigate their behavior in the plastic state. Powder compression is one of the methods of producing metal parts with high precision and improved mechanical properties, which is why it has been considered in addition to its need in the industry.There are various methods for performing these simulations, including multi-scale methods with optimal performance. Given that only the use of high-scale methods or only low-scale methods will have problems and disadvantages in such simulations, multi-scale methods will be a good alternative in which both... 

    Modeling and Testing Three-Class Object Recognition and Decision-Making with Comparison of Results

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Abbasi Larki, Mahyar (Author) ; Moghimi, Saman (Supervisor) ; Ebrahimpour, Reza (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Object recognition is a fundamental capability in humans and animals that plays a key role in their interaction with the environment. Most existing computational models in this area either neglect the decision stage or employ classical machine-learning models that are not biologically realistic. Moreover, these models are typically limited to binary tasks, whereas decision making in the real world often requires choosing among multiple object categories. In this thesis I introduce a neurocomputational model that simulates the object-recognition process from representation to decision. The model is built by combining a three-class spiking convolutional neural network with a three-population... 

    Supervised fuzzy partitioning

    , Article Pattern Recognition ; Volume 97 , 2020 Ashtari, P ; Nateghi Haredasht, F ; Beigy, H ; Sharif University of Technology
    Elsevier Ltd  2020
    Abstract
    Centroid-based methods including k-means and fuzzy c-means are known as effective and easy-to-implement approaches to clustering purposes in many applications. However, these algorithms cannot be directly applied to supervised tasks. This paper thus presents a generative model extending the centroid-based clustering approach to be applicable to classification and regression tasks. Given an arbitrary loss function, the proposed approach, termed Supervised Fuzzy Partitioning (SFP), incorporates labels information into its objective function through a surrogate term penalizing the empirical risk. Entropy-based regularization is also employed to fuzzify the partition and to weight features,... 

    Efficient simulation of resonance Raman spectra with tight-binding approximations to density functional theory

    , Article Journal of Chemical Physics ; Volume 157, Issue 8 , Volume 157, Issue 8 , 2022 ; 00219606 (ISSN) Ashtari Jafari, S ; Jamshidi, Z ; Visscher, L ; Sharif University of Technology
    American Institute of Physics Inc  2022
    Abstract
    Resonance Raman spectroscopy has long been established as one of the most sensitive techniques for detection, structure characterization, and probing the excited-state dynamics of biochemical systems. However, the analysis of resonance Raman spectra is much facilitated when measurements are accompanied by Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations that are expensive for large biomolecules. In this work, resonance Raman spectra are therefore computed with the Density Functional Tight-Binding (DFTB) method in the time-dependent excited-state gradient approximation. To test the accuracy of the tight-binding approximations, this method is first applied to typical resonance Raman benchmark... 

    Discussing the Behavior of the Boundary Theory Caused by Kalb-Ramond Field Perturbation in the Bulk, Using AdS/CFT Correspondence

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Ashtari Esfahani, Ali (Author) ; Arfaei, Hessamaddin (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    In this thesis we have used the low energy effective action of the string theory to find an asymptotic Anti-de sitter metric with a non-vanishing H field. Then we have used the AdS/CFT correspondence to study the effects of the added Kalb_Ramond field on two calculations in the boundary theory. The first one was the calculation of the drag force exerted on a moving quark in the quark-gluon plasma. In the second calculation we observed the effect of the added field on the confinement-de confinement phase transition  

    Cost overrun risk assessment and prediction in construction projects: a bayesian network classifier approach

    , Article Buildings ; Volume 12, Issue 10 , 2022 ; 20755309 (ISSN) Ashtari, M. A ; Ansari, R ; Hassannayebi, E ; Jeong, J ; Sharif University of Technology
    MDPI  2022
    Abstract
    Cost overrun risks are declared to be dynamic and interdependent. Ignoring the relationship between cost overrun risks during the risk assessment process is one of the primary reasons construction projects go over budget. Conversely, recent studies have failed to account for potential interrelationships between risk factors in their machine learning (ML) models. Additionally, the presented ML models are not interpretable. Thus, this study contributes to the entire ML process using a Bayesian network (BN) classifier model by considering the possible interactions between predictors, which are cost overrun risks, to predict cost overrun and assess cost overrun risks. Furthermore, this study...

    , Article Journal of Radioanalytical and Nuclear Chemistry ; Volume 316, Issue 1 , 2018 , Pages 9-16 ; 02365731 (ISSN) Soltani Behrooz, M ; Fasihi, J ; Samadfam, M ; Sepehrian, H ; Ashtari, P ; Mahani, M ; Arabieh, M ; Sharif University of Technology
    Springer Netherlands  2018
    Abstract
    Synergistic coupled transport of uranyl ion across a bulk liquid membrane of chloroform has been investigated using a dioxa-diazamacrocycle and oleic acid as carrier and synergistic agents, respectively. Quantitative transport of uranyl ion was achieved within 4 h when the pH of source solution was kept at 5.0–6.0 and mole ratio of carrier to synergistic agent was 1/15. It was found that overall rate and selectivity of the transport is governed by the stripping step. Finally, the influence of some foreign competitor ions including Al3+, Ca2+, CO3 2−, Cu2+, Mg2+, Pb2+, Zn2+ and Th4+ and also the ionic strength on the transport efficiency has been evaluated. © 2018, Akadémiai Kiadó, Budapest,...

    Abstract
    The influence of manufacturing parameters such as compacting pressure, heat treatment and microstructure on the static and dynamic properties of Fe-1.75 Ni-1.5 Cu-0.5 Mo-0.6 C was investigated. Wear and fatigue tests were carried out on reciprocate wearing and tension compression mode, respectively. The results show that delamination wear mechanism of sintered steel is similar to that of conventional wrought or cast materials. But, in sintered material, open porosity acts as sites of generation and collection of wear debris or formation of subsurface cracks. Wear rate is decreased and fatigue strength is increased by heat treatment. © 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Mohammad Karami (Author) ; Bazargan, Mohammad (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    The primary purpose of acidizing operations in the oil and gas industry is to enhance hydrocarbon production. Acidizing has been a common and conventional method for years, especially when production engineers face issues like declining reservoir pressure leading to reduced production rates. Initially, the treatment solution is referred to as matrix acidizing. In acidizing operations, different additives are combined with the acid to control its behavior in the reservoir. These additives may include iron control agents, corrosion inhibitors, friction reducers, and more. Incompatibility among these additives, the acid, and reservoir fluids can lead to severe damage to the reservoir....

    A misbehavior‐tolerant multipath routing protocol for wireless Ad hoc networks [electronic resource]

    , Article International Journal of Research in Wireless Systems (IJRWS) ; Vol. 2, Issue 9, pp. , Sep. 2013 Sedghi, H. (Haniyeh) ; Pakravan, Mohammad Reza ; Aref, Mohammad Reza ; Sharif University of Technology
    Abstract
    Secure routing is a major key to service maintenance in ad hoc networks. Ad hoc nature exposes the network to several types of node misbehavior or attacks. As a result of the resource limitations in such networks nodes may have a tendency to behave selfishly. Selfish behavior can have drastic impacts on network performance. We have proposed a Misbehavior-Tolerant Multipath Routing protocol (MTMR) which detects and punishes all types of misbehavior such as selfish behavior, wormhole, sinkhole and grey-hole attacks. The protocol utilizes a proactive approach to enforce cooperation. In addition, it uses a novel data redirection method to mitigate the impact of node misbehavior on network...
