In this work, we study electronic transport properties of a quasi-one dimensional pure semi-conducting Zigzag Carbon Nanotube (CNT) attached to semi-infinite clean metallic Zigzag CNT leads, taking into account the influence of topological defect in junctions. This structure may behave like a field effect transistor. The calculations are based on the tight-binding model and Green’s function me...

  In the experimental section of this project, the energy spectrum of fast neutrons is measured, after being passed through large blocks, approximately lm3 each, of graphite, aluminium, water and paraffin. Neutrons were produced via 7Li(p,n)7Be reaction by bombarding a Lithium target with 25 or 30 MeV protons of the cyclotron at the Nuclear Research Centre for Agriculture and Medicine in Karaj....

In this paper, a new method is proposed for fault location estimation in overhead-cable multi-section transmission lines. This method takes advantage of synchronized samples gathered from both terminals of the line in the time domain. Because of this, it does not need a filter to extract fundamental frequency of the voltages and currents. Thus, it shows a higher accuracy, since it is not influe...

The present study investigate the effects of mechanical properties of the rock layers in the foundation of concrete gravity dam on the seismic response of gravity dam–reservoir –foundation systems. The mutual effects of different domains are considered in the present research. As a case study the biggest section of Shafarud dam in the north of Iran is modeled two dimensionally using ABAQUS soft...
