Book Part Scherengestänge als elemente adaptiver morphologien(Birkhäuser, 2020) Akgün, Yenal; Maden, Feray; Gür, Şebnem; Kiper, Gökhan; Korkmaz, Koray; Aktaş, Engin; Yar Uncu, MüjdeZu allen Zeiten haben Menschen versucht, flexible Gebäude zu bauen, die sich ständig verändernden Anforderungen und Umweltbedingungen anpassen. Die Einbeziehung von Bewegung in die Architektur ist der Versuch, auf veränderliche Umstände mit neuen Lösungen zu reagieren. Das Konzept der Bewegung ist in der Tat nicht neu für die Architektur. Die Wurzeln gehen bis in die Antike zurück. Einfache, mit flexiblen Außenhäuten gebaute Nomadenzelte können als das erste Beispiel für adaptive Strukturen angesehen werden, die zum Schutz vor extremen Umweltbedingungen dienten.1 Die zum Abdecken des Daches im Colosseum von Rom verwendeten Leinwandbahnen sind ein weiteres Beispiel. Sie bildeten Markisen, die nicht nur Sonnenschutz boten, sondern für die Zuschauer durch ihr Durchhängen zur Mitte hin auch eine Brise einfingen.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5Loop Based Classification of Planar Scissor Linkages(Springer, 2022) Kiper, Gökhan; Korkmaz, Koray; Gür, Şebnem; Yar Uncu, Müjde; Maden, Feray; Akgün, Yenal; Karagöz, CevahirScissor linkages have been used for several applications since ancient Greeks and Romans. In addition to simple scissor linkages with straight rods, linkages with angulated elements have been introduced in the last decades. In the related literature, two methods have been used to design scissor linkages, one of which is based on scissor elements, and the other is based on assembling loops. This study presents a systematic classification of scissor linkages as assemblies of rhombus, kite, dart, parallelogram and anti-parallelogram loops using frieze patterns and long-short diagonal connections. After the loops are replicated along a curve as a pattern, the linkages are obtained by selection of proper common link sections for adjacent loops. The resulting linkages are analyzed for their motions and they are classified as realizing scaling deployable, angular deployable or transformable motion. Some of the linkages obtained are novel. Totally 10 scalable deployable, 1 angular deployable and 8 transformable scissor linkages are listed. Designers in architecture and engineering can use this list of linkages as a library of scissor linkage topologies.Article Citation - WoS: 19Citation - Scopus: 20A Critical Review on Classification and Terminology of Scissor Structures(Int. Association for Shell and Spatial Structures, 2019) Maden, Feray; Akgün, Yenal; Kiper, Gökhan; Gür, Şebnem; Yar, Müjde; Korkmaz, KorayWhen the existing literature on the research of scissor structures is thoroughly investigated, it is seen that different researchers use different terminologies and classifications especially for the definition of the primary units and the motion type. Some of the studies define the whole geometry based on the geometric properties of the primary scissor units and the unit lines while some other studies define it according to the loops. All these studies use different names for similar elements. This article aims to review the literature on the classification and terminology of scissor structures and represent the state of art on the studies. Tables are represented showing all approaches in the literature. In addition, the article criticizes the missing points of each terminology and definition, and proposes some new terminology. In order to arrive at this aim, different definitions of the primary scissor units and motion types used in key studies in the literature are investigated thoroughly. With several examples, it is demonstrated that naming the scissor units according to the resulting motion type might be misleading and it is better to specify the motion type for the whole structure. A classification for transformation of planar curves is presented.Book Part Scissor Linkages in the Design of Adaptive Morphologies(Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2019) Akgün, Yenal; Maden, Feray; Gür, Şebnem; Kiper, Gökhan; Korkmaz, Koray; Aktaş, Engin; Yar Uncu, MüjdeScissor linkages are capable of forming various expandable structures. Architects can benefit from this type of linkage especially for designing adaptive, movable, transformable shell structures and deployable beam-like structures. Product designers may benefit as well. The two different methods described here convey the basic design approaches. The unit-based method is very effective for obtaining primary geometries like a dome, arch, circle or line, using serial multiplications and arrays of one of the scissor unit types presented here. The loop assembly method is more convenient when a final form, be it straight or free-form, is the main point of departure. In this case, unlike in the unit-based method, it is not necessary to opt for a specific scissor unit type and its dimensional constraints from the beginning. Designers can choose a type and number of loops and then define the scissor units following the loop sides. Since deployability is guaranteed by applying this method, the architect is free to choose the loop type most suitable for the functional needs and aesthetic concerns of the specific design. With the loop assembly method all loop alternatives can be assembled to scissor structures, their possible motions can be tested and evaluated in a short time, whereas the unit-based method is limited to a single type of motion that a specific unit can provide.Article Citation - Scopus: 11A Novel Planar Scissor Structure Transforming Between Concave and Convex Configurations(WITPress, 2017) Yar, Müjde; Korkmaz, Koray; Kiper, Gökhan; Maden, Feray; Akgün, Yenal; Aktaş, EnginIn this paper, a novel two-dimensional scissor structure that transforms between concave and convex configurations is presented. The structure is designed by a method of assembling kite or anti-kite loops in the flat configuration. Angulated units are generated from the assembled loops. Finally, a new angulated scissor unit is introduced in order to design the novel scissor structure.
