This dissertation proposes a probabilistic framework for optimal calibration of design provisions based on the minimization of lifecycle cost (LCC) and its uncertainty. Subsequently, this framework is utilized to determine the optimal robust design base shear coefficient of building structures, and propose a methodology for codifying it while preserving the current structure of the base shear equation. In the first part of the proposed methodology, various structures are designed with different seismic base shears. Then, at each site, their LCC comprising the construction costs and seismic losses is calculated. Various types of seismic loss considered in this study include the direct...

Abstract
Internal combustion engines are first and common powertrains in industry. They have developed eminently. Because of energy crisis there are much attention for their improving and optimizing. The purpose of improving of internal combustion engines performance is increasing the ratio of output brake power to engine fixed size. An improved engine should be tried to work near of the maximum power span, whereas an automobile engine (original engine) works at its middle power. In other hand, if an improved engine and original engine work for a long time, improved engine has critical conditions.

, Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology ; Atarodi, Mojtaba (Supervisor)
Abstract
This thesis deals with the front-End of an Integrated RFID Reader operated in 860MHz to 960MHz, which integrates a RF transceiver including PA, LNA and Mixer. In the receiver part, a power amplifier was fabricated and measured and in the transmitter part, LNA and Mixer were designed. There is a growing interest in utilizing CMOS technologies for RF power amplifiers (PAs). Although several advances have been made recently to enable full integration of PAs in CMOS, it is still among the most difficult challenges in achieving a truly single-chip radio system in CMOS. This is exacerbated by supply voltage reduction due to CMOS technology scaling and on-chip passive losses due to the conductive...

Abstract
Inert gold become catalytically active when dispersed in the form of nanoparticles. Isolated gold nanoparticles have demonstrated high catalytic activity for both oxidation and reduction reactions. In order to obtain high catalytic activity, gold nanoparticles are generally dispersed on support materials, among which oxides are commonly used. However, a substantial decrease in activity and selectivity of the immobilized catalysts is frequently observed due to the heterogeneous nature of these support materials in reaction media. In the course of our study on the metal-based catalysis for synthesis of organic compounds, we herein report that rod-shaped Au nanoparticles in aqua solution...

Design and Implementation of Complex Multi-Path Filters
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Atarodi, Mojtaba (Supervisor)
Abstract
In most radio receivers like superheterodyne receivers, a weak desired incoming signal is accompanied with many interferer signals that are much more powerful than the desired signal itself. These interferers, also called blockers, can cause a great disturbance in the functionality of the receiver. Due to gain compression and an increase in the noise figure (NF) of the receiver, the blockers should be filtered before the arrival at the output of the LNA. Because of the low quality factors of the available on chip inductors and in order to eliminate the out of band interferer signals and image frequency (in superheterodyne receivers), usually an external surface acoustic wave (SAW) filter is...
