Friction stir spot welding (FSSW) method is prone to automation. In this way, by integrating the robot and automation systems have been easily developed. Thanks to the method, the effective overlapping joints can be obtained a short processing time. In the stu…
The Friction Stir Spot Welding (FSSW) method is a derivative of the Friction Stir Welding (FSW) process, which is a new welding process that recently has received considerable attention from the automotive and other industries. The studies of the different res…
The aim of this study is to forecast installed wind power which is a one of the renewable energy resources in Turkey for the year of 2017 based on artificial neural network method using the normalized last ten-year data. An artificial neural network has been c…
For a successful thermal performance, the right choice and design of the thermal management materials used in LED die-moulding, cooler and soldered parts is a critical engineering problem. Because they are affected by heat emitted from the pn junction in the L…
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…
In the present study, energy and exergy analyses of a solar powered absorption refrigeration system are corried out by terms of the first and second laws of thermodynamics. NH3-H2O fluid couple is used in the system. The analyses are performed with the help of…
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,…
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…
The aim of this study is to determine instantaneous irradiance and annual percentile sunlit time on the available rooftop floor area of Technical and Social Science Vocational School at Usak University by simulation using open source software. The building of …
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…
The structure of the gas diffusion layer influences cell performance because it also affects the passage of reaction gases and electrons. In this study, the effect of the thickness of the gas diffusion layer on the cell performance for the singlecelled PEM fue…
Wireless sensor network (WSN) is a distributed system usually comprising a set of autonomous sensors nodes. These sensors are physically small in size and are capable to communicate with each other and capable of conveying data to recipients. In a large number…
The use of GPUs for general purpose applications is not a recent approach, but it was quickly becoming widespread with NVIDIA's CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture) architecture based on C programming language in 2007. Algorithms suitable for parallel op…
Social networks are formed from interactions of peoples. Measuring the degree of those relationships requires interpreting connectivity of vertices and extracting information from it. Generally individuals form smaller sub-communities in those networks. Identi…
Refrigeration and air-conditioning systems consume about 15% of global electricity, and 46% of energy used in household and commercial buildings belongs to heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems. Vapor-compression technologies dominate the HV…
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…
Nowadays new applications and new web sites are being developed, better methods and tools are needed in order to be able to develop web or mobile applications in a fast and interactive way with minimal code structure. In this point, both the design of the appl…
