Abstract
One the most important issues in most of embedded systems is reliability and fault tolerance.Ensure of correct operation and evaluate reliability and fault tolerance of embedded proces-sors as a critical part of embedded systems, would be necessary. Fault injection is one themostly used methods for evaluating those features. Using FPGA devices is a good alterna-tive for time consuming simulation-based fault injection method because of their speed. But,there are some critical issues in FPGA-based fault injection methods which are controllabil-ity and observability. In addition to need for efficient and applicable observation and controlmechanism to handle fault injection experiments, a...
Investigation of Weak Measurement in Quantum Key Distribution
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Alireza Bahrampour (Supervisor)
Abstract
Quantum key distribution is one of the practical quantum information technologies in labo- ratories with existing equipments.In quantum key distribution protocols, the main challenge is the secrecy of key distribution. One of the new methods of quantum channel error esti- mation is the use of weak measurement. In this thesis, after introducing the main quantum key distribution protocols, we introduce weak measurement and sequential weak measure- ment concepts: the weak measurement methods are exployed to obtain the phase difference between two polarizations with high accuratly. It is also used for in line monitoring and error estimation parameters in some quantum key distribution protocols....
Schaefer–Krasnoselskii Fixed Point Theorems Using a Usual Measure of Weak Noncompactness
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Ranjbar Motlagh, Alireza (Supervisor)
Abstract
In this thesis, we present some extension of Burton and Kirk fixed point theorem for the sum of two nonlinear operators, which one of them is compact and the other one is strict contraction; and we investigate the existence of fixed point where these two operators don’t need to be weakly continuous. Next, we will check the necessity of some conditions, like being strict contraction or compactness, in some specific Banach spaces, such as reflective spaces or Banach spaces equipped with uniformly convex norm.Finally, we analysis the existence of the solution for integral equations in L1 space by using the expressed theorems
Experimental Study of the Effect of Divergence Angle on the Efficiency of Conical Nozzle in a Laboratory Solid Rocket Motor
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Farahani, Mohammad (Supervisor) ; Mohammadi, Alireza (Co-Supervisor)
Abstract
Most propulsion systems use nozzles to increase the velocity of exhaust gas. Therefore, the efficiency of nozzles is important. Losses due to geometry and physical phenomena inside the nozzle define this efficiency. The length and divergence angle of the nozzle, the throat diameter, the Reynolds number, and the specifications and the combinations of fuel have a direct impact on these losses. Solid propellant rockets are widely used and today optimization of rockets is most noticeable. On the other hand, in different phases of design and optimization, empirical experiments are necessary, which are costly in real dimensions. The use of laboratory motors with specific considerations decrease...

, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Farahani, Mohammad (Supervisor) ; Mohammadi, Alireza (Co-Supervisor)
Abstract
Nanolaunchers are launch vehicles capable of carring light payloads (under 50 kg) to Low Earth orbit and received much attention in the few past years. Launching the nanosatellites grown about 30 times from 2008 to 2017. Since this category of launch vehicles has fewer developing costs and lower thechnology level, they fit developing space technology in our country. Conversely, the demand of high propellant mass fraction and specific impulse may be a serious difficulty to attain this technology.The only operating nanolauncher in the world is SS-520-5 which belongs to Japan and is a three-stage solid propellant launcher. The goal of this project is also the conceptual design and feasiblity...
Experimental Study of Acceleration Effect on Combustion Chamber Pressure Field
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Farahani, Mohammad (Supervisor) ; Mohammadi, Alireza (Co-Supervisor)
Abstract
This thesis is conducted to study acceleration effect on the burning rate augmentation of a solid propellant. A centrifugal experimental setup is designed to obtain a uniform acceleration field. An internal burning tube is used as grain, so acceleration vector is always perpendicular to burning surface of propellant. Inner radius of tube is small, so the magnitude of acceleration increases as the grain burns back. The pressure of combustion chamber was changed from 30 bar to 80 bar by changing the nozzle throat and the magnitude of acceleration changed from 2g to 60g by changing the rotational speed of SRM. Burning time of all tests was below 2 sec. due to small web of the grain. Pressure of...

Abstract
The aim of this study is to remove pharmaceutical pollutants through a photocatalytic approach. A layered double hydroxide (LDH) structure was synthesized with the assistance of a metal-organic framework (MOF). Initially, MIL-101(Cr) was synthesized using trivalent chromium ions and subsequently transformed into a layered double hydroxide structure with divalent nickel ions. To further enhance this process, MIL-88(Fe) was prepared using trivalent iron ions, composited with MIL-101(Cr), and then converted into an LDH structure using divalent nickel ions. The resulting photocatalytic composite was fully characterized, and its efficiency in degrading the pharmaceutical compound meropenem was...
The Investigation of the Effectiveness of Engine Oil Filter Particle Analysis in Enhancing the Efficiency of Diesel Engine Condition Monitoring Programs
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Behzad, Mehdi (Supervisor) ; Masoodi, Alireza (Supervisor) ; Mohammadi, Somayeh (Co-Supervisor)
Abstract
Over the years, as machines have been invented, their maintenance and repair have consistently been regarded as critical concerns. Oil analysis techniques are an effective method for monitoring the condition of mechanical equipment. Since filters in these devices continually absorb and remove a significant portion of particles from the lubricant, the selection of appropriate filters is crucial. While filters positively affect machine performance, they can also negatively impact oil condition monitoring. To mitigate this negative effect and improve the predictive accuracy of equipment health monitoring, oil filter analysis was conducted. In this research, analytical ferrography tests were...
Experimental Investigation on the Development Length of Steel Rebars with End Hook in Rubberized Concrete
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Khaloo, Alireza (Supervisor) ; Najafgholipour, Mohammad Amir (Supervisor)
Abstract
Each year, a considerable amount of waste tires is disposed of in landfills, causing significant environmental concerns. One potential solution to mitigate these effects is the partial replacement of natural fine aggregates in concrete with recycled crumb rubber. Although the inclusion of crumb rubber typically results in reduced compressive strength and elastic modulus, previous studies have shown that rubberized concrete can still be viable for structural applications. In reinforced concrete structures, adequate bond between the steel reinforcement and surrounding concrete is essential; hence, the concept of development length is used to ensure proper anchorage. Where providing the...
Rcci Curvature for Metric-Measure Space via Optimal Transport
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Bahraini, Alireza (Supervisor) ; Ranjbar Motlagh, Alireza (Co-Advisor)
Abstract
One of the important questions in mathematics is generalized. In case of metric spaces, one of the questions is: Can we extend notions of Riemannian geometry to arbitrary metric spaces smoothly? Ricci curvature is one of the most important concepts in differential geometry. Ricci curvature is defined for the Riemannian manifold and has many applications in mathematics and physics like Einstein’s equation in relativity theory. There is a good notion for a metric space having “sectional curvature bounded below by K” or “sectional curvature bounded above by K”, due to Alexandrov. Can we define the concept of Ricci curvature in metric space? A motivation for this question comes from Gromov’s...

Abstract
The anatase phase of titania was stabilised with physically modifying particulate sol-gel process. Two major parameters, peptisation temperature and drying temperature, were identified which were responsible for retarding the anatase to rutile phase transformation, crystal growth and packing of primary particles. The critical nucleus size of transformation was controlled by natural (at 25 °C) and artificial (at 50 and 70 °C) peptisation techniques. Moreover, sintering of primary particles was controlled by cool (at 0 and 5 °C) and normal (at 25 °C) drying techniques. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) analysis confirmed that a full conversion of titanium isopropoxide is obtained...

Abstract
The electric-field induced response of a droplet embedded in a quenched polyelectrolyte gel is calculated theoretically. The response comprises the droplet translation and the electric-field induced flow fields within the droplet. The gel is modeled as a soft, and electrically charged porous solid saturated with a salted Newtonian fluid. The droplet is considered an incompressible Newtonian fluid with no free charge. An analytical solution, using the perturbation methodology and linear superposition, is obtained for the leading-order steady response to a DC electric-field. The fluid within the droplet is driven due to hydrodynamic coupling with the electroosmotic flow. The fluid velocity...

The droplet-hydrogel interface is modeled as a surface, which encloses the interior fluid. The surface has the thickness of zero and the electrostatic potential ζ. Standard...
The Ricci Flow with Applications to the Poincare and Calabi Conjectures
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Bahreini, Alireza (Supervisor)
Abstract
Poincare conjecture is one of the rst eorts for classifying 3-manifolds that was stated in the begining of 20th century. Eorts for proving this conjecture continued for about 100 years and nally Perelman has solved it in 2003. He has used Ricci ow which has been invented by Richard Hamilton in the early 80's. In this thesis rst we will introduce Ricci ow and will state the results before Perelman such as short time and long time existence of solution. Then we will mention some applications of Ricci ow and will state an explanation of the proof of uniformization and Calabi conjecture by Ricci ow. After that we start the main part of the thesis. In this part we will montion one of the...
