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 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 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 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. ... -
Devletin yenilenebilir enerji kaynaklı elektrik enerjisini arz etme yükümlülüğü
(2017)Elektrik enerjisinin hayatımızdaki yeri ve önemi tartışmasızdır. Elektrik enerjisinin arzı, sürekliliği, fiyatı, ulaşılabilirlik açısından önemlidir. Fakat bir diğer önemli husus da elektrik enerjisinin kaynağıdır. Elektrik ... -
Dexterous manipulation with a robotic hand
(2017-06)In robotics, flexible and the dexterous manipulation are one of the most desired type of skills. To this end, we investigate dexterous manipulation skills on an anthropomorphic robot hand. In the first part of the study, ... -
Die-swelling phenomenon in rubber weatherstrip manufacturing under real process conditions imposed in a commercial extrusion line
(2021-06-11)The weather-strip manufacturers aim to reduce one of their main costs, trial scrap, to be competitive and to have a lower carbon foot. Annual scrap rates of sealing systems are mainly caused by extrusion dies and ... -
A distributed blacklisting protocol for iot device classification using the hashgraph consensus algorithm
Industrial applications require highly reliable, secure, low-power and low-delay communications. However, wireless communication links in the industrial environment suffer from various channel impairments which can compromise ... -
Diversity techniques for ultraviolet communications
(2016-08)Strong molecular and aerosol scattering in ultraviolet (UV) wavelengths enable mechanisms where transmitter can communicate with the receiver in the absence of line of sight (LOS) link. Recent advances in solid state ... -
Diversity-multiplexing tradeoff for network coded cooperative OFDMA systems
(2016-08)Cooperative communication (CC) exploits the broadcasting nature of wireless transmission and creates a distributed multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system among the wireless nodes which are physically separated from ... -
Do pension funds provide liquidity: Lessons from em countries
(2017-01)In response to the financial crisis, there has been increased attention on the importance of the long-term investors for financial stability. We contribute to this literature by investigating the role of pension funds on ... -
Do Turkish asset management companies hold overweight positions in their parent companies' securities for the mutual funds under their management?
(2019-07-30)Conflict of interest in affiliated mutual funds is widely investigated in the literature. Due to its significant growth in recent years, Turkish mutual fund industry attracts more attention from regulators and investors. ... -
Does the auction cycle have an effect on the momentum strategies in Turkish bond market?
(2018-05)A momentum strategy is applied on the 5-year and the 10-year maturity Turkish bonds between March 2010 and August 2017 with various look-back periods. The U.S. 10-year maturity bond yield and the Istanbul Stock Exchange ... -
Dopamine detection using mercaptopropionic acid and cysteamine for electrodes surface modification
