At this project we proceed to aero elastic modelling of a flapping wing using unsteady aerodynamic approach. Solving this model according to aerodynamic and structure coupling needs to simultaneously solve of aerodynamic and wing structure. Left side and right side of wing, each on divided into 18 elements. each element is interacting with sides element in terms of structural force and moment. In this modeling aerodynamic was modeling with unsteady aerodynamic approach (using modify theodersen function), also structure is flexible in to direction, bending and twisting. In the following it is proved that with change in flapping pattern better performance can be achieved. the effect of change... 

This dissertation consists of three chapters. In the first chapter, a description of formation of Darwin's theory of Evolution is expressed. After that, the process of formation of modern theory of Evolution, along with an explanation of the theory of evolution and the evidence for it was mentioned. In the second season, which is responsible for the scientific study of the theory, at some point the evidence of this theory has been reviewed. After that, some of the challenges raised against this theory have been studied. The major scientific challenges described in this chapter is based on recent advances made in biology, based on that, the mechanism of theory can’t explain the complex... 

Protein multiple sequence alignment is one of important problems in biology which no polynomial time algorithms is known for it yet. Due to importance of this problem, several methods have been developed to find an approximate solution for it. Approximation algorithms, Evolutionary algorithms and Probabilistic methods are some of these methods. According to evolutionary nature of this problem, evolutionary algorithms and specifically genetic algorithms can be a potential good solution method for this problem. In this project we have a survey on using genetic algorithms for this problem and after mentioning benefits and draw backs of existing methods, we develop a method for improving one of... 

This research has been surveyed the impact of intermediate skilled and high skilled human labor force on the productivity of manufacturing sectors by the Nelson & Phelps and also Lucas approaches. first model is related to the level of productivity and the second model is related to the growth of it. We has been prepared the needed statistics from the raw figures of iran statistics center. regression analysis has been done on the basis of panel data model by the use of stata software. the results show that not good efficiency to optimize technology factor of Cobb-Douglas model although it shows higher marginal labor productivity of high skilled human labor force. we has proposed some... 

One of the ways to optimize fuel consumption and improve aircraft performance can be realized by reducing drag, and a major part of this force is the lift-induced drag, which is reduced by increasing the wing span. On the other hand, increasing the wingspan has physical limitations on the allowed dimensions of the aircraft, increasing the weight and reducing the maneuverability of the aircraft, especially in the roll maneuver. Therefore, in order to benefit from the advantages of increasing the wing span and not facing the mentioned limitations, the idea of using a Folding Wing-Tip (FWT) has been proposed by aircraft manufacturing companies and experts. In this way, in normal flight such as... 

In today's era, metal nanoparticles play an important role in technologies emerging from different sciences, such as chemistry, physics, optics, material science, due to their unique characteristics. In the development of nanooptics science, it can be said that metal nanoparticles play an important role. The ability of conductive electrons collective oscillation causes surface charge density fluctuations in nanoparticles, this phenomenon is known as surface plasmons. Surface plasmons are surprisingly coupled with light and cause the significant increase in the intensity of optical fields induced in nanoparticles. Therefore, with the presence of localized surface plasmons or plasmon... 

Understanding of the Molecules is the main purpose of the chemistry. Ab-initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) as a branch of the computational chemistry, tries to give us a deep comprehension of the molecule, and its chemical, physical and optical activities. This comprehension, relies on the accuracy of quantum mechanics, in addition to the speed of the classical mechanics. The mixing of the quantum mechanics and the classical mechanics could simulate activities of the atoms in the time-domain, provided the mixing is done with precaution. This, in turn, helps us to forecast the response of a molecule in different situations, and also translating the macroscopic phenomena in a nanoscopic... 

To date, the plasmonic properties of many metallic and semi-conducting materials have been investigated and used in various industries. One of the plasmonic material categories that have always been considered is polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon or PAH, whose plasmonic resonance energy depends on the charge state of the molecule. In this regard, it is easy to change the plasmonic resonance energy via changing the induced charge, which is a unique feature of the mentioned materials. In addition, plasmonic structures with excitations in the infrared region are able to enhance the vibration intensity of absorbed molecules by increasing the electric field around themselves. Therefore, they have... 

Ultrafast signal processing in time-domain with high resolution and reconfigura-bility is a challenging task. This paper, for the first time, introduces a time-varying metasurface consisting of graphene microribbon array for implementing time-lens in the terahertz domain. Given that the surface conductivity of graphene is proportional to the Fermi energy level in the THz regime, it is possible to change the phase property of the incident electromagnetic pulse by changing the Fermi level while the Fermi level itself is a function of voltage. Upon this fact, a quadratic temporal phase modulator, namely time-lens has been realized. This phase modulation is applied to the impinging signal in the... 

In this research, the problem of locating fire stations and allocating equipment has been studied and a simulation-optimization approach has been presented to solve the problem. The mathematical models of this research were developed based on the idea of the randomness of the covered demand and the maximum expected coverage model. In these models, the issue of non-availability of equipment to cover accidents, the random nature of accidents, various fire incidents and the equipment needed to cover them are considered. Two mathematical models with deterministic and non-deterministic approach with different scenarios for demand are proposed. The non-deterministic model is developed with the aim... 

One of the main concerns of industrial companies’ managers is providing an efficient logistics system. To achieve an efficient logistics system, the fleet planning problem is studied by many researchers in recent years. This problem consists of multiple sub-problems at three levels: operational, tactical, and strategic. These sub-problems are closely related to each other and need to be studied and addressed in an integrated manner. In this research, an attempt is made to provide an integrated framework to solve the vehicle routing problem (operational), outsourcing problem (tactical), and fleet composition problem (strategic). These problems have various uncertainties, including customer...
