In this study, combined thermal radiation and natural convection heat transfer problem are investigated in glass and plastic covered flat solar collector. The bottom plate that absorbs the sunlight and the ambient temperature are kept constant. Solar collector…

Boron is a important element that can be used in many different fields such as the ceramic industry, fertilizers, insecticides, corrosion inhibitors and etc. Boric acid is a naturally occurring compound containing boron, oxygen and hydrogen (H3BO3) elements. I…

The mobile processors with the increasing computational capabilities and software supports for the devices equipped by them have attracted the researchers’ attention to check whether they can be used for solving complex problems or not. In this study, a mobile…

In this study, the production of waste paint natural dye (ISO 1574 / TS 1563) from the sources of human / environment friendly countries has been carried out to determine the use of organic dye obtained from tea plant extract in wood protection industry. Water…

This study aimed to develop natural dyes for wood material that are harmless to humans and the environment. For this purpose, a tea stain and polyurethane single- and double-component water based varnish were applied by brush on the wood surfaces of pine (Pinu…

Today, rapid population growth and the development of technology have brought about the problem of waste. In order to solve this problem, it is first necessary to reduce the waste generation at the source. This can be achieved by raising awareness of the consu…

This paper describes innovative and novel trends on engineering education. Among these trends internet-based engineering laboratory with virtual and physical experiments, smart classes, 3G/4G technologies, and e-learning and m-learning facilities can be expres…

In this study, the main contributions of establishment of Kartepe Test and Research Centre (KARTEAM) project funded by East Marmara Development Agency (MARKA) within the scope of financial support program in 2016 is explained for applied technical education an…

Nowadays, home automation systems are one of the areas where technological developments are applied. Thus, devices such as doors, windows, lighting, heating, cooling, security cameras, elevator, fire, water pressure, garage, solar energy systems and TVs, curta…

Many well-known material structures, such as metals, ceramics or polymers, cannot meet all the technological demands. For this reason, there is ongoing research into new materials with advanced features. A composite material is consisting of at least two phase…

Low energy and water consumption of green buildings during the life cycle, waste management, minimizing the impact of projects on the ecosystem and increasing the use of environmentally friendly materials have made high performance green buildings attractive…

Many situations in human life are described with uncertain narratives. The fuzzy set theory has revealed as a powerful tool to deal with the uncertainty of human thoughts and expressions, by Azerbaijani Prof. Dr. Lotfi A. Zadeh in 1965. In the classical cluste…

Mining environments have faced with serious fatalities related to works, workplaces and workers as a consequence of their accident-prone processes. Underground mining stands in the first place in terms of being a hazardous industry worldwide. Due to risks invo…

LEDs that emit blue light are needed to create white light using LEDs. In 1991, Japanese scientists Isamu Akasaki, Hirochi Amano and Shuji Nakamura invented LEDs that emit blue light. From this date it became possible to use the LEDs as lighting elements. Rapi…

With the effect of globalization, a significant change and transformation have been experienced. As a result of this change, developments in knowledge and information technologies caused an intense competition among both countries and businesses. In such an …

With today's developing technology, learning applications reach more people within shorter time. This development of technology closely affects mobile technology. These developments in mobile technology are applied to make learning more effective. Mobile learn…

The whole set of community-determined activities based on systematic skills and knowledge gained at the end of a particular training to produce goods or services for people and to receive financial income is called profession. The choice of profession is to …

Energy dissipaters used in open channels are devices designed to reduce the flow velocity and allow water to pass downstream without harming water structures and environment. In this study the effect of energy dissipaters on energy loss is investigated depende…

Nowadays, as the population increase, various construction projects are made on soils which engineering properties are not suitable. Many stabilization methods are used in order to prevent deformations and loss of bearing capacity on such soils. However, most …

A useful and flexible method based on the salp swarm algorithm (SSA) for the pattern nulling of linear antenna arrays with the prescribed nulls is presented. SSA is a relatively new population based evolutionary optimization algorithm. Nulling of the pattern i…
