Abstract
Internet of Things (IoT) represents enabling all things in such a smart way that those things be accessed any time and anywhere through the Internet. Presence of IoT as a novel way of networking, opens up new concernsaround the communication and network world. A secure establishing in such a diffused network is a great concerns of the researchers. Due to Smart things' resource-constraints and power-limitation the former ways of securing networks cannot be applicable in IoT. Thus, security bootstrapping has introduced a solution for establishing security in the first instance of deploying the network. In this study, we have proposed a security bootstrapping solution which can be applied in...
The Effects of Non-Gaussian Operations in Increasing the Secure Length of Quantum Communications based on Continuous Variables
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Bahrampour, Alireza (Supervisor)
Abstract
Quantum key distribution (QKD), as one of the applications in quantum information processing, allows two distant legitimate parties to establish a set of secure keys even in the presence of an untrusted environment controlled by an eavesdropper. In general, QKD mainly includes two families, namely, discrete variable quantum key distribution (DV-QKD) and continuous variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD). In CV-QKD system, the sender Alice, encodes information on the quadratures of the optical field with Gaussian modulation, and the receiver Bob, decodes the secret information with homodyne or heterodyne detection so that this system promises a higher secret key rate than its DV-QKD...
Improvement of robot navigation using fuzzy method
, Article 2013 3rd Joint Conference of AI and Robotics and 5th RoboCup Iran Open International Symposium: Learning, Glorious Future ; 2013 , pp.1-5 ; 9781467363150 (ISBN) ; Amiryan, J ; Nazemi, E ; Sharif University of Technology

Abstract
In this paper a technique for autonomous navigation of mobile robots is presented. The most important advantage of this method is to ignore the physical model of the robot and that the robot model is considered as an unknown but predictable system. This approach can be executed in environments which robot navigation is done using global sensors e.g. a camera installed in the environment to sense and control the robot and also every feedback system which is able to measure the velocity of the robot can be used for this technique. In this approach, the well-known fuzzy method, Takagi-Sugeno, has been applied to estimate the dynamic model of robot. Our technique has been applied successfully in...
Simulation and Evaluation of the Security Sub-Layer for IoT
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Manzuri Shalmani, Mohammad Taghi (Supervisor)
Abstract
Internet of Things means making the all of things smart to access them anytime, anywhere through the Internet. Existing of IoT as a novel way of networking, opens up new issues round the communication and network world. One of them is how to establish the security in such a diffuse network. Because the members of this network are not smart phones, computers or any other usual networking technologies, but they are the normal things and appliances in our daily lives, such as refrigerators. Smart things are mostly resource-constrained and power-limited so the former ways of securing networks cannot be applicable in IoT. Thus, Security bootstrapping has is introduced a solution for establishing...

Abstract
This study represents an effort to predict the bearing strength, failure modes, and failure load of bolted joints in foam-core sandwich composites. The studied joints have been used in a light full composite airplane. By using solid laminates, a new design for the joint zone is developed. These solid laminates include a number of glass plies with total thickness equal to core thickness. The effect of solid laminate size and interface angle of foam-solid laminate in the bonding zone on the bearing strength, failure loads and type of modes are investigated. The numerical study is performed using 3D FEM in ANSYS commercial code. Tsai-Wu failure criterion is used in the failure analysis. The...

Abstract
Energy infrastructures are perceived continuously vulnerable to a range of high-impact low-probability (HILP) incidents - e.g., earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, windstorms, etc. - the resilience to which is highly on demand. Specifically suited to battery energy storage system (BESS) solutions, this paper presents a new resilience-driven framework for hardening power distribution systems against earthquakes. The concept of fragility curve is applied to characterize an earthquake hazard, assess its impact on power distribution systems, and estimate the unavailability of the network elements when exposed to extreme earthquakes. A new metric is defined to quantify the network resilience taking...

Financial Market Forecasting Using Deep Graph Neural Networks
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Soleymani Baghshah, Mahdieh (Supervisor) ; Beigy, Hamid (Supervisor)
Abstract
Forecasting and analysing financial markets has always been an interesting research topic for fields ranging from financial sciences to mathematics and statistics. With the rapid development of artificial intelligence in the recent years, there has been a growing interest in using deep neural networks to predict market future trends. The price in these markets is determined by mechanisms of demand and supply. When there is a tendancy to buy a stock, there will be an increase in demand resulting a positive growth for price. On the other hand, when a large group of investors decide to sell their assets, market will experience an increase in supply and subsequently the prices drop. Availability...
Preparation of Polycarbonate Membrane for Industrial Wastewater Treatment in Membrane Bioreator
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Mousavi, Abbas (Supervisor) ; Bastani, Dariush (Supervisor)
Abstract
Today, membrane bioreactors (MBRs) process is one of the most important options in industrial and municipal wastewater treatment. In MBRs, membrane has an essential influence on their performance. In this study, polycarbonate was exploited as membrane to evaluate its performance in MBR since it has excellent mechanical properties. However, polycarbonate is brittle and breaks at low elongation at room temperature. Solution blending was utilized to improve polycarbonate’s properties. Blending membrane was characterized and assessed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and tensile strength. Polycarbonate solution blending with polyurehatne which has excellent toughness and flexibility enhance...
Planning Studies of Energy Storage Systems in Distribution Network with the Main Goal of Improving the System’s Resilience
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Fotuhi Firuzabad, Mahmoud (Supervisor) ; Rajabi Ghahnavieh, Abbas (Supervisor)
Abstract
Occurrence of natural disasters such as flood, windstorms, tsunamis and earthquakes has caused striking effects on critical infrastructures like power systems in recent decades. There are some examples of high-impact low-possibility (HILP) events which causes catastrophic effects on power systems. Traditionally, planning and operational studies of power system have been run taking into account some reliability metrics. Although, the reliability indices can represent the ability of a system in confronting with possible failures of components, they are unable to efficiently consider the effects of severe events such as earthquake and other HILP events. Moreover, traditional power systems were...
Designing an Emotion Capturing System Using Eeg Signals and Human-obot Interaction Platform Based on the Captured Emotion
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Taheri, Alireza (Supervisor) ; Meghdari, Ali (Supervisor) ; Ghazizadeh, Ali (Co-Supervisor)
Abstract
Emotions are one of the most important issues which affects daily life and activities. On the other hand, robots play an increasing role in human life and play a fundamental role in meeting our needs. One of these basic roles is empathy and verbal interaction between the robot and human. In this research, participant's emotions were stimulated in two ways: by using OASIS and GAPED image data sets and by instructing the participants to remind about their good or bad memories. During emotional stimulation, EEG signals have been recorded for the training and testing process. The preprocessing of training data includes filtering, removing bad parts of data, removing bad channels and...
