    The Universality Classes of the KPZ Equation

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Balouchi, Ashkan (Author) ; Rouhani, Shahin (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation was first proposed as a model to explain surface growth. This equation is very similar to Edwards-Wilkinson (EW) equation that is used to study scaling phenomena in non-equilibrium systems and phase transition. Although EW’s universality classes have been known well, it still remains a problem for KPZ. In the present thesis, in addition to a general review on surface growth models and a study on properties of rough surfaces, we study the physics of the KPZ model and the other related physical models. Also, using numerical results (like SLE method), renormalization group results and simulation, we study the dynamic and roughness exponents (α, z), and the... 

    Sustainable-Resilient Supplier Selection Through Fuzzy Multi-Criteria Decision Making Approaches

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Varchandi, Sahar (Author) ; Akbari Jokar, Mohammad Resa (Supervisor) ; Memari, Ashkan (Co-Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Today, with the expansion of business relations at international levels, there are many organizations that operate in global supply chains. Activities at such levels face new types of challenges in various fields of "supply chain management" pillars, of which "supplier selection" is one of them. The possibility of unexpected events, the need to comply with environmental protection laws, as well as the need to take into account social considerations, are among the things that have increased by being in larger supply chains, making it challenging to provide the basic resources needed in such chains and forcing their managers to considering considerations other than what they have always... 

    Design of a Sustainable Supply Chain Network for Urban Spent Batteries

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Kalabi, Sogol (Author) ; Akbari Jokar, Mohammad Reza (Supervisor) ; Memari, Ashkan (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    This research addresses the design and optimization of a sustainable supply chain for an environmental startup, with a focus on the collection and recycling of urban alkaline batteries in Tehran. This problem is motivated by the lack of proper management of this type of waste, its environmental pollution, and the resulting loss of natural resources. The main concern is the optimal selection of metro stations to be equipped with collection boxes and the determination of the transportation and recycling network structure in such a way that the economic performance of the network (total profit/cost) is optimized while environmental impacts (carbon emissions) are controlled simultaneously. To... 

    Artificial intelligence for detection of external cervical resorption using label-efficient self-supervised learning method

    , Article Journal of Endodontics ; Volume 50, Issue 2 , 2024 , Pages 144-153.e2 ; 00992399 (ISSN) Mohammad-Rahimi, H ; Dianat, O ; Abbasi, R ; Zahedrozegar, S ; Ashkan, A ; Motamedian, S. R ; Rohban, M. H ; Nosrat, A ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    Introduction: The aim of this study was to leverage label-efficient self-supervised learning (SSL) to train a model that can detect ECR and differentiate it from caries. Methods: Periapical (PA) radiographs of teeth with ECR defects were collected. Two board-certified endodontists reviewed PA radiographs and cone beam computed tomographic (CBCT) images independently to determine presence of ECR (ground truth). Radiographic data were divided into 3 regions of interest (ROIs): healthy teeth, teeth with ECR, and teeth with caries. Nine contrastive SSL models (SimCLR v2, MoCo v2, BYOL, DINO, NNCLR, SwAV, MSN, Barlow Twins, and SimSiam) were implemented in the assessment alongside 7 baseline deep...

    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...

    Abstract
    Importance: Cancer and other noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) are now widely recognized as a threat to global development. The latest United Nations high-level meeting on NCDs reaffirmed this observation and also highlighted the slow progress in meeting the 2011 Political Declaration on the Prevention and Control of Noncommunicable Diseases and the third Sustainable Development Goal. Lack of situational analyses, priority setting, and budgeting have been identified as major obstacles in achieving these goals. All of these have in common that they require information on the local cancer epidemiology. The Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study is uniquely poised to provide these crucial data....
