Abstract
The concept of effective pair potential (EPP), in which medium effects and contribution of long-range interactions are added to near-neighbor pair interactions, is a useful tool to derive and calculate the thermodynamic quantities. It has been shown that the extended Lennard-Jones (12, 6, 3) potential is an accurate EPP for many systems. However, the parameters of this EPP are not known for any systems. We introduce a new approach to use experimental pvT data of a fluid to calculate its EPP parameters. Such calculation has been carried out for some fluids at some temperatures. Unlike the isolated pair potential, it has been shown that the parameters significantly vary with temperature. We...
Calculation of Effective Pair Potential Function by Using Pressure−Temperature−Volume Data
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Parsafar, Gholamabbas (Supervisor)
Abstract
In this work, by considering the medium effects and adding the long−range interactions to the isolated pair potential, the concept of the extended effective pair potential of the Lennard−Jones (12, 6, 3) has been purposed for dense systems. Due to lack of any information regarding the parameters of this potential for any fluid, the purpose of this work is to introduce a new method to calculate these parameters using experimental pVT data. Since the extended potential of Lennard− Jones (12, 6, 3) is a general function based on which that an equation of state can be derived (equation of state III) predicts many properties of dense systems that no deviation is observed. Also it doesn’t have...

Utility of Cooperative Parafoils for Recovery of Multi-Segmented Launch Systems
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Fathi Jegarkandi, Mohsen (Supervisor)
Abstract
Today, a lot of efforts have been done in order to commercialize space travels. Spacecrafts have a lot of components and producing each of them spends high costs. Components such as propellant tanks and boosters are multi segment and are released simultaneously and therefore it is economically feasible to recover them. Due to Parafoil ability in low-cost, soft (no damage to the cargo) and accurate landing, it is gradually replacing parachute. Parafoil can fly long distances after being released, so its landing point could be determined. The aim of the study is to evaluate this scenario in which some segments of launch vehicle (e.g. booster) that are equipped with Parafoil expand their...

Synthesis and characterization of poly(methacrylates) containing spiroacetal and norbornene moieties in side chain [electronic resource]
, Article Journal of Applied Polymer Science ; Volume 77, Issue 1, pages 30–38, 5 July 2000 ; Mirjalili, Bibi Fatemeh ; Sharif University of Technology
Abstract
A four-step synthetic strategy was applied to achieve novel methacrylic monomers. 5-Norbornene-2,2-dimethanol was prepared from a Diels–Alder reaction of cyclopentadiene and acrolein, followed by the treatment of the adduct with an HCHO/KOH/MeOH solution. The resulting 1,3-diol (1) was then acetalized with different aromatic aldehydes having OH groups on the ring to produce four spiroacetal derivatives. The reaction of methacryloyl chloride with the phenolic derivatives led to four new methacrylic monomers that were identified spectrochemically (mass, FTIR, 1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR spectroscopy). Free radical solution polymerization was used to prepare novel spiroacetal–norbornene containing...

Abstract
Pricing plays an important and essential role in the profit and income of companies. The importance of pricing is not only related to its role in the company's profitability, but it also changes the customer's understanding and loyalty towards the company and can create the company's reputation or destroy it. Determining the right price will increase product sales and increase customer loyalty and create a competitive advantage for the company. One of the most important and influential variables in product pricing is the amount of demand. The main challenge of companies for product pricing is the uncertainty in their demand. In order to deal with this problem, data-driven pricing is used....
Design of Low-Power Zero Temperature Coefficient (ZTC) CMOS Oscillators
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Akbar, Fatemeh (Supervisor)
Abstract
The increasing demand for autonomous vehicles and reliable communication protocols and hardware interfaces, such as CAN bus and USB, underscores the necessity for stable clock sources that maintain a low temperature coefficient (TC) over wide temperature ranges. This demand is particularly emphasized in applications such as wearables, network sensors, downhole devices, WSNs, and IoT, where long-lasting battery life and frequency-stable clock sources over a broad temperature range (e.g. -20 °C to 100 °C) are crucial. Traditionally, variations in frequency caused by temperature have been mitigated by employing off-chip components like crystals or ceramic based oscillators, but this approach...
Design of Low Power Harmonic Rejection Mixer for Wideband Application
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Akbar, Fatemeh (Supervisor)
Abstract
The increasing demand for communication bandwidth and limited spectrum availability have heightened the complexity of radio front-end circuits in IoT applications. Achieving spectral efficiency is a key challenge, particularly for IoT devices operating at specific frequency bands such as 315 MHz, 433 MHz, 868 MHz, and 915 MHz.Due to the limited linearity of the transmit path, harmonic distortion components, known as counter intermodulation (CIM) products, are generated. These CIM products can directly fall into the receiver (RX) band or enter it via cross-modulation, thereby degrading the frequency division performance. Additionally, CIM products can interfere with protected bands, violating...

The Impact of Integrated Prediction and Optimization on the the Bullwhip Effect in supply chains
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Sedghi, Nafiseh (Supervisor)
Abstract
The Bullwhip effect is a phenomenon that refers to the amplification of demand variance as one moves upstream in a supply chain. This effect imposes additional costs on the supply chain and complicates inventory planning. Several factors contribute to the emergence of this phenomenon, one of which is demand forecasting. Since the demand faced by each level of the supply chain is uncertain, every level must first forecast demand in order to plan its inventory and meet customer requirements. However, this very process of forecasting contributes to the bullwhip effect. In this study, we investigate the impact of machine learning and deep learning forecasting methods, along with their...
