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 ... -

(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
(2017-05)This research work emphasizes on main objective of dopamine detection using electrochemical detection analysis. Dopamine is an electrochemical neurotransmittor and is an essential part in human body for many decisions. It ... -
Durability testing and vibration characterization of an electric vehicle battery
Although the electrical system is important in the development of electric vehicles, the durability of the battery against mechanical loads and the performance of the battery against shock reactions are just as important. ... -
A dyadic analysis of the link between couples' perfectionism and attachment behaviors
Recently, perfectionism has been a more important construct due to its links with adverse individual as well as relational outcomes. In this regard, perfectionism's association with people's actions, particularly with the ... -
The dynamics of asset swap spread in Turkey
(2018-05)In response to the financial crisis, investors have been increasingly sensitive to the evolution of swap spreads, as a rising proportion of their portfolio is constituted by emerging markets debt instruments. I provide two ... -
An ecologically valid reference frame for perspective invariant action recognition
In robotics, objects and body parts can be represented in various coordinate frames to ease computation. In biological systems, body or body part centered coordinate frames have been proposed as possible reference frames ... -
Economic lot sizing problem with tank scheduling
(2021-08)In this study, we consider an Economic Lot sizing Problem with Tank Scheduling (ELSTS). The problem is a real-world problem, which is generally found in fermented beverage and food facilities. A facility might produce an ... -
Effect of colour conversion layer on the optical and thermal efficiency of LED based liquid crystal displays
(2018.05)In light-emitting diode (LED) lit liquid crystal displays (LCD), the colour gamut is related to the back-light unit (BLU) spectrum. The blue LED light is generally converted to green and red bands with phosphor mixtures. ...
