About 90% of world trade in transportation of goods is conducted via maritime transportation. An important operation area of maritime cargo transportation is ports. It is necessary to keep these ports secure where information and communication technologies a…
In this study, it is aimed to design C pattern array microstrip antenna for C Band (4 to 8 GHz), X Band (8 to 12 GHz) and Ku Band (12 GHz to 18 GHz). The proposed geometry was fed by coaxial probe. Optimum antenna was designed with Artificial Neural Network …
A novel continues plasma reactor with rotating electrodes was designed and constructed to investigate methane decomposition to hydrogen and solid carbon. This new reactor structure causes stable operation. Hydrogen is main part of gaseous products which cont…
In industrial robots, projected torque is increasing depending on the extending reach length and payload. This requires selection of powerful engines particularly on the second axis. Since arm's rigidity becomes more important as the expected positioning preci…
When the traditional fuel reserves are limited and the environmental factors of these fuels are taken into consideration, the importance of renewable energy sources is increasing day by day. Especially, obtaining electricity from solar energy has become popula…
Optimal operation of the power systems is very important. In this paper, a new approach for both the economic active power flow and active power loss minimization in multi-terminal HVDC systems is proposed. In the proposed optimization approach, system constra…
Many communication protocols are being used and standardized for the Internet of Things (IOT) infrastructure. At the forefront of the features expected from the protocols used is the efficient operation of a limited bandwidth and low bandwidth electronic devic…
Energy conversion systems are very diverse. One of the most important of these systems is undoubtedly the electric machines. Mechanical energy production from electricity has been ongoing for about 150 years. With rapid developing technology, it has shown a ra…
Lubricant oils are products designed to form a protective film that reduces wear and friction of machinery moving parts, protect against corrosion, cool surfaces, and reduce energy consumption. During operation, lubricant undergoes chemical changes due to cont…
Jeotermal enerji varlığını dünyanın kuruluşundan bu yana sürdürmüş temiz bir enerji türüdür. Her geçen yıl yeni jeotermal alanlar bulunmakta ve kullanım alanları hızla artmaktadır. Enerji maliyetlerinin yükselme eğiliminde olduğu günümüzde jeotermal enerji alt…
In this study, the experimental application of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEM-FC) with dc-dc boost converter is realized for compact design of electric vehicle (eV). The PEM-FC is an electro-chemical device which combines hydrogen with oxygen to p…
In this study, we focused on to drive a compound DC motor with a Fuel-Cell and battery, which uses hydrogen as a fuel. A fuel cell can supply maximum 40V electric. In order to drive a DC motor, it needs 200Vdc. Therefore, a microcontroller controlled boost con…
Analysis of faults in synchronous generators are so important to protect the generators and the power systems. In this paper, double line-to-ground fault analysis in unloaded synchronous generator is presented. Apart from the similar studies in the literature,…
Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are configurable logic semiconductor devices which connect by programmable interconnections. They can be reprogrammed to desired application or functionality requirements. VHDL is a one of the hardware descriptive languag…
In this study, Al-12Si ingot alloy was melted in an electric resistance furnace and then poured into metal moulds through traditional casting method. Optimum machining conditions is aimed to determine by investigating the effects of cutting parameters on surfa…
This study presents the investigation of thorium utilization in an ADS with Lead-Bismuth Eutectic (LBE) target. To effectively burn thorium, the ThO2 fuel rods cylindrically prepared, and cladded with SiC, are mixed with 233UO2 at volumetric ratio of 1%. These…
This study investigates the heightened vulnerability of children residing in disaster-prone informal settlements in the southwestern coastal city of Khulna, Bangladesh. The study focuses on both social and physical factors contributing to children's vulnerabil…
This study presents a comprehensive overview of biophilic design research that incorporates ecological considerations, specifically focusing on energy efficiency, thermal comfort, and sustainability. While biophilic design has traditionally emphasized human we…
In this study, the literature review on the user perceptual assessment of the colour used in the interior space is analyzed and grouped. Most of the studies are about the perception of colours throughout the space. However, it is thought that the colour combin…
