Simulation and controlling nonlinear process is one of the challenging problems in academic and industrial research. Saving data for keeping history of process or arising number of calculation for optimization in control design, is forcing to decrease number of equation or order of system. One of the methods to decrease the order of distillation process is using the travelling wave theory. This solution shows god accuracy for simulation the behavior of distillation column. On the other hand finite difference method as a solver for distillation equation takes some time to converge to steady state condition and the numbers of calculation in this method are high. Finite difference method is... 

By continuously measuring blood pressure, we can prevent the irreversible effects of high blood pressure. With the traditional method of using a cuff, it is not possible to measure blood pressure continuously during the day, so for continuous monitoring of blood pressure, it is necessary to use a method without the need for a cuff. Based on previous studies, to estimate blood pressure, Photoplethysmogram and ECG signal features, or temporal and morphological features of Photoplethysmogram signal have been used. In methods that use ECG signals, signal recording is difficult, and methods that use both PPG and ECG signals are even more complex. Using only PPG signals also has its problems.... 

The light emitting diodes is composed of an electron transport layer and hole transport layer. The electrons and holes go to the middle region called active region through these transmit regions, and they emit light from themselves by recombination in this area. In our structure, the active region consists of quantum dots. The emitted light characteristics depend on these dots to great extent. In this thesis, we first describe the processes in this type of device, and then we will review the well-known structures that have been reported so far. In chapter 4 discusses the important characteristics of the active region, including the size of the quantum dots and the wetting layer, and we... 

The purpose of ranking Persian web pages is to retrieve the highest number of relevant documents related to the search query of Persian language users, with the minimum number of documents returned from the web. Information retrieval is one of the key issues in search engines. In this study, billions of documents were collected from Persian web pages, and due to infrastructure limitations, a few hundred million documents were indexed in a database like Elastic. Now, considering the user’s actual query, relevant documents should be retrieved from the indexed documents. To achieve this goal, a large Persian language model was needed. Existing large language models for Persian were not usable... 

In this study biological denitrification method by moving bed biofilm reactor is investigated. The main advantage of MBBR reactor is due to their capacity for high removal rates and low operational problems such as clogging. Two MBBRs in series with 3 liter volume each, were designed in experimental set up and used in this research. Nitrification reactor worked under aerobic conditions and denitrification reactor operated under anaerobic conditions. Methanol was used as carbon source in the reactors throughout the study. Fifty percent of each reactor volume was occupied with KMT1 packing. To finding the optimum nitrate loading rate, the concentration of ammonium and nitrate were changed from... 

In many uranium mines such as gachin-bandarabbas, use sulfuric acid for leaching operation on ore. This leach liquor, containing uranium, is extracted by organic solvent, such as D2EHPA (dapex process ).althogh this process have being used for many years, there is a vacancy for detailed thermodynamical studying on uranium extraction of uranium from leach liquor. To have a thermodynamical model, we need information on equilibrium concentration of all component that may have effect on uranium extraction in addition we need concentration of solvent , pH, phase ratio and activity coefficient.such a model must have the ability to predict the equilibrium concentration in alloperation condition.... 

Bridges are among the crucial elements of transportation networks, and play an important role in facilitating emergency relief efforts following earthquakes. For this reason, it is emparative to monitor their damages to ensure about their performace in earthquakes. The structure of a bridge is divided into two parts, namely the superstructure and substructure. Due to the relatively high rigidity and strength of superstructures, most of structural damage is usually concentrated in substructures, which may ultimately affect the overall stability of the bridge. Therefore, assessing the level of damage in the substructure is of utmost concern. This research attempts to evaluate the damage in the... 

The variety of 2D materials and their wide range of properties, as well as numerous methods to manipulate them, have made this class of materials among prominent candidates for the future of the energy industry. Among the means available to tailor nanomaterials performance for such applications, introducing dopants and the creation of heteroatom-doped structures are of great interest. In this study, mixtures of urea, boric acid, and graphene oxide, as cheap and available precursors, were used to synthesize C-doped h-BN nanosheets. After the implementation of TGA/DSC to select a suitable calcination temperature of 950 C°, the samples were successfully synthesized with relatively precise...
