Organizations in the oil and gas industry often deal with a variety of logistic challenges. These organizations need to utilize innovative technologies like machine learning and other IT-based technologies to reduce costs and help achieve a lower-emissions environment. These industries involve a global supply chain comprised of domestic and international transportation, inventory control, materials handling, import/export facilitation, and information technology. Currently, in these industries, a classic model for executing supply-chain management techniques is considered. However, companies can optimize their supply chains to generate more productivity for better financial returns. Applying... 

Project scheduling problems can be divided into different categories which one of the most important of them is resource investment problem. In this problem we are faced with a time limit for completion but resources are available unlimitedly and can be allocated to the project by specific cost. One of the most important constraints in real problems is the times that resources are available. In this research, resource investment problem considering calendar for resources has been investigated. Since resource investment problem is NP-Hard, after a brief overview of the different solutions, we used genetic algorithm to solve this problem. For this purpose, after determining chromosome... 

The aim of this thesis was creating Titania/RGO coating with electrophoretic method to evaluate the corrosion resistance of stainless steel 316. At first Graphene Oxide were synthesized with modified Hammers method and their physical, chemical and morphological properties have been investigated using XRD, FTIR, EDX, TGA, UV-Vis and Raman analysis. then Graphene Oxide was added to the bath of titanium and was deposited on 316 stainless steel substrates. Moreover, corrosion protection of coating has been examined using Poarization test and Electrochemical Impedance Spectrometry. The effect of deposition parameters on corrosion properties of composite coatings were examined. The key variables... 

In low energy limit, some string theory models are described with an effective lagrangian which consist of two term. first is Eistein-Hilbert term and second is chern-simons. Adding the chern-simons term to Eistein-Hilbert lagrangian leads to the new modified field equations which schuwarzshild, Reissner-Nordstrom and FRW metrics satisfy these new modified equations while kerr metric is not a solution for these new fields. Since the gravitational field of spinning objects are similar to electromagnetic field, we expect to observe the chern-simons effects in gravitomagnetic component of the gravitational field. Here, in order to better understanding of subject, we investigate the Maxwell... 

There is an ever increasing trend to apply AdS/CFT to explain physical phenomena and this endeavor has recently begun concerning Superconductivity. Using black holes with differing structures and gravitational content has proved to be uitful in this explanation. In this thesis we try to explain superconductivity for a charged ro-tating black hole with Kerr-Newman-Ads metric in four dimensions. Having calcu-lated condensation for a rotating black hole we obtained diagrams of phase transition in superconductivity with respect to temperature. In addition a brief discussion on calculating the conductivity has been presented  

AdS/CFT Correspondence since it origination has found numerous applications in various aspects of Physics such as ion collision in Accelerators, Condensed matter Physics and etc. this orrespondence is a consequence of String Theory. In this project we have tried to analyze some of its applications in Condensed matter Physics and in the controversial phenomenon of superconductivity without resorting to the complexities of String Theory. Having applied this approach we have found a dual for it in Gravity and having calculated some common physical quantities and equations in these two sets such as Energy gap, Conductivity, London Equations and etc, we have tried to show the correspondence,... 

Nowadays, proper design and retrofitting of structures against natural and manmade disasters, is among the main concerns of researchers and designers in order to reduce financial and human costs. Extensive research has been carried out on the structures resistance against earthquake up to now. Although, the vast amount of research has resulted various regulations and guidelines, there is still a long way ahead to achieve the desirable results. Due to high sensitivity of the steel to temperature variations, fire exposure is more destructive for steel structures compared with the concrete ones. The performance of an intermediate three-storey steel moment frame with 4 spans was studied in this...
