    Seismic Performance of Skewed Integral Bridges

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Sarvazimi, Shokufeh (Author) ; Maleki, Shervin (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    The purpose of this research is to evaluate skew integral abutment bridges. A bridge with an integral abutment bridge system is a type of bridge in which the expansion joint is removed so the connection between the abutment and the superstructure is rigid. Therefore, the superstructure and the substructure are integrated with each other and both participate in the lateral load of the structure under seismic or thermal forces. One of the important challenges in this type of bridges is the lack of analysis, tests and limited three-dimensional modeling. According to this, the understanding of the behavior of skew integral abutment bridges and the effects of soil-structure interaction in these... 

    Desulfurization of Petroleum Coke in Aluminium Industry

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Askari, Hadis (Author) ; Khorasheh, Farhad (Supervisor) ; Soltanali, Saeed (Supervisor) ; Baghalha, Morteza (Co-Advisor) ; Tayebi, Shokufeh (Co-Advisor)
    Abstract
    In this study, desulfurization of petroleum coke has been investigated for use in aluminum industry. To reduce sulfur content in petroleum coke, desulfurization has been investigated by two methods of solvent extraction and molten caustic leaching. The method of molten caustic leaching at temperatures of 400-600 °C has been investigated. Other effective parameters on the desulfurization of petroleum coke are the mass ratio of alkali to feed (petroleum coke) in the range of 0.5-1.5 and the time of 1-3 hour and the mesh size of 200-600 micron. In this study, the conditions of desulfurization of petroleum coke using potassium hydroxide have been investigated. Results show that by using the...
