A Trusted Design Platform for Trojan Detection in FPGA Bitstreams Using Partial Reconfiguration
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Bayat-Sarmadi, Siavash (Supervisor)
Abstract
Hardware Trojans have emerged as a major concern for integrated circuits in recent years. As a result, detecting Trojans has become an important issue in critical applications, such as finance and health. In this work, a trusted platform for detecting Trojans in FPGA bitstreams is presented. The proposed methodology takes advantage of increased Trojan activation, caused by transition aware partitioning of the circuit, while it benefits partial reconfiguration feature of FPGAs to reduce area overhead. Simulation results, performed for the transition probability thresholds of 〖10〗^(-4) and 〖2×10〗^(-5), show that this method increases the ratio of the number of transitions in the Trojan...
Assessment of Existing Offshore Platforms for In-Place Conditions
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Golafshani, Ali Akbar (Supervisor)
Abstract
Assessment of existing jacket type offshore platforms in Persian Gulf for life extension is of great importance in the field of offshore platforms in recent years. The main question to answer is whether an existing platform is safe enough to be used beyond the design life. Evaluation of existing jacket type offshore platforms under extreme environmental (wave) loading in Persian Gulf is a part of this major assessment. Two general approaches exist in this context, deterministic and probabilistic assessment. In this thesis, a new probabilistic method (reliability analysis) to assess offshore structures under environmental loading (extreme wave) is introduced. This method is a...

Abstract
Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess and compare the crystalline structures of both powder and bulk human dental enamel by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD). Methods: The buccal surfaces of 60 selected noncarious third molars were divided into two groups of powdered and bulk enamel specimens. To prepare enamel powders, the enamel tissues were ground and powdered manually using a mortar and pestle. For bulk samples, the enamel slabs were sectioned using a low-speed diamond saw. The crystalline structures of samples were analyzed by XRD, and the obtained data were analyzed. The values of the lattice parameters were obtained using the equation of hexagonal crystalline structures. The...
Growth of Perovskite Film based on Lead Iodide by Controlling Deposition Parameters for Solar Cells Application
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Mohammadi, Mohammad Reza (Supervisor) ; Seyed Reihani, Morteza (Supervisor) ; Riahi, Nastaran (Co-Advisor)
Abstract
Perovskite solar cells, with high efficiency operation, have been candidated as a cost-effective and environmentally friendly technology. Despite the great progress, there are some primarily issues remained regarding to the perovskite film and its fabrication methods. A very common perovskite cell structure is FTO/TiO2/CH3NH3PbI3/Spiro-OMeTAD/Au. Although, this structure has some advantages, lack of full surface coverage of perovskite film leads researchers to put much effort on finding other constructions. This surface inhomogeneity reduces the amount of light absorption and therefore efficiency. One way to produce a complete and uniform film is applying mixed-halide composition; such as...
Solvent Engineering for Preparation of Perovskite Film based on Lead Iodide for Solar Cells Applications

Abstract
The microstructure, morphology and quality of the perovskite organic-inorganic layer as an absorber layer in perovskite solar cells has a significant role on the efficiency and energy conversion of the device. Different solvent engineering methods have been employed to prepare the perovskite layer with the desired properties and thier reproducibility have been studied. Herein, we applied a two-step solution approach by solvent engineering method, using solvents such as isopropyl alcohol, acetone and thier mixture, for preparation of lead iodide films. Moreover, their metallurgical and photovoltaic properties were investigated. The impact of solvent engineering, using solvents such as...
