Development of a torque-controllable lower extremity exoskeleton for crutch-free 3D walking support
(2018-12-24)Spinal cord paralysis is a condition, which is formed due to full or partial loss of sensorimotor and autonomous functionalities of the spinal cord. Paraplegia is a type of spinal cord injury which causes functionality ... -
Development of a torque-controllable upper limb exoskeleton for industrial applications
Chronic upper body pain and injuries are undesirable physical disorders that result from regular exposure to external forces that strain the musculoskeletal system. These symptoms reduce both the quality of life and ... -
Development of an accelerated Monte Carlo ray tracing based radiation heat transfer solver
(2017-07)The Monte Carlo ray tracing (MCRT) is a semi-analytical stochastic method for the solution of radiative transfer equation (RTE). However, its high computation cost prevents its extensive use. In this study, an accelerated ... -
Development of an aerial interface for extraction of the electrodynamic fingerprints of the single-photon detectors
(Wiley, 2021-12)In this study, a novel structure of semi array of antipodal Vivaldi antenna is designed to extract the RF radiations from the single-photon detectors in a quantum key distribution system. The proposed antenna covers a ... -
Development of an antagonistically actuated smart joint
(Trans Tech Publications, 2017)Shape memory alloys with their phase transformation properties; have been broadly implemented in smart structures. In this study, a functional design is presented where two wires actuate antagonistically to achieve motion ... -
Development of antagonistically actuated active joints with shape memory aloys
(2017-01)The focus of this research work is the development of an active joint antagonistically actuated by shape memory alloys (SMA). Due to their high force to mass ratio these identified as excellent actuator candidates for ... -
Development of composite cold-formed steel-rubberised concrete semi-rigid moment-resisting connections
(Elsevier, 2022-06)This paper presents the development of a composite cold-formed steel (CFS)-rubberised concrete (RuC) semi-rigid moment-resisting connection suitable for framed building structures. The connection comprises built-up tubular ... -
Development of figure of merits for energy efficient LED lighting systems
(IEEE, 2014)Energy has been identified as one of the most important problems during the last few years. While energy generation and new energy resources are critical, energy efficiency in production, transportation and utilization are ... -
Development of lower bounds for the scheduling of setup tasks in serial production lines
(Inderscience Publishers, 2013)Efficient production resettings are necessary to achieve production flexibility. For this reason, it is of primary importance to reduce the setup time required to switch the production from one product type to another, and ... -
Development of multifunctional tick repellent textiles
(2016-09)This thesis focuses on smart textile manufacturing with tick repellency through encapsulation of the natural extracts and applying them onto the fabric surfaces. Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is a human viral infectious ... -
Development of multimodal expressions of space in speech and gesture: the case of sagittal and topological spatial relations
Previous literature has shown that learning to communicate about space follows a lengthy timetable. However, prior work has shown that children can express some concepts, including spatial relations, in gestures prior to ... -
Development of nano structured photo-catalytic textile materials
(2017-07)This study focuses on assisting problems which have delayed the commercialization of the photocatalytic textile applications by the following innovative technological developments related to photocatalytic compounds; (i) ... -
Development of novel methodologies for rotational dynamics applications
(2020-12-31)In this thesis, a novel methodology is proposed to determine the parameters of a rotating unbalance in a rotor-bearing system. For that purpose, the weighted sum of squared difference between the analytical and predicted ... -
Development of novel methodologies for the damage detection in mechanical systems
(2020-12-31)The present study examines the capability of various optimization algorithms and proposes novel hybrid algorithms for the more precise prediction of open-edge cracks in mechanical systems. The natural frequencies of the ... -
Development of polycaprolactone biodegradable films reinforced with silver-doped organoclay and effect on the microbiological quality of ground beef meat
(Wiley, 2022-10)In this work, a comparative study was held to obtain biodegradable antibacterial nanocomposite films using polycaprolactone (PCL) and silver-ion-doped organomodified halloysite (HNT) and montmorillonite (MMT) nanoclays. ... -
The development of social competence in children with disabilities
(Wiley, 2022-03-18)Children with disabilities experience unique challenges in developing social skills critical to achieve their social goals. In this chapter, the authors first introduce two theoretical frameworks that can guide research ... -
Development of the calibration scheme and system integration of the Ozyegin biopsy robot (OBR)
(2016-08)Imaging systems can fail to visualize cancerous tissues for proper diagnosis. Needle based procedures, like biopsies, increase the chances of accurate diagnosis of tumors. These procedures also have applications in minimally ... -
Development of two-phase biological self-healing agents for cement-based mortar
(2020-01-13)Factors affecting durability of concrete structures are generally associated with each other. Due to its brittle nature, concrete can crack under stress and these cracks can decrease the service life of concrete structures. ... -
Development of various corner-lit backlighting concepts in an advanced smart LED TV
(2015-01)CCFL (Cold Cathode Florescent Lamp) based LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) TVs are replaced by Smart LED TVs with the help of recent improvements of the LED (Light Emitting Diode), electronics and information technologies. ... -
Developmental assets among young people in three European contexts: Italy, Norway and Turkey
(Springer Nature, 2019-04)Background: Within the positive youth development (PYD) perspective, internal assets (e.g., social competencies and positive identity) and external assets (e.g., support and empowerment) constitute developmental assets ...
