Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Design Alternatives of Light Shelves Using Altmann Linkage(Solarlits, 2024) Atarer, Fulya; Korkmaz, Koray; Kiper, GokhanThis paper proposes a novel new light shelf design with Altmann linkage using its kinetic principles: geometry and rotational angles. As previous studies explain a light shelf's design in two ways: static and movable, the proposed one in this study has the potential to track the path of the sun due to its diagonal movement. The primary purpose is to direct the light shelf to intermediate directions, such as southeast and southwest, by utilizing the geometric properties of the Altmann linkage. The study explains how to dimension the links, calculate rotation angles, and model this device in Relux to test its daylight performance on specific dates in a year. A total of nine variations were analyzed during the three phases of design. They include shelf forms such as a rectangle, two rectangles, two squares, and varying link lengths, which define the distance to the windowsill. The final set of variations with two-square forms moving west and east successfully satisfied with sDA values as 71.52%, 72.99% (w), 75.92% (e); with ASE values as 8.83%, 8.56% (w), and 8.22% (e). This best design of Altmann linkage would be beneficial as an adaptive fa & ccedil;ade module that can direct daylight inside and achieve proper shading throughout the day and year.

Studies on kinetic reciprocal frames are very limited. This study investigates two degrees-of-freedom reciprocal frame fans, and a novel deployable reciprocal frame network is obtained. While the network has a single degree-of-freedom in the crosssection, it has multi degrees-of-freedom in the longitudinal section. The network can be rolled to obtain a compact form and takes the form of a vault form when deployed. The way the nexors come together in the designed network is similar to the Da Vinci Bridge. The only difference is that cylindrical and prismatic joints are used in the intersection points to make the designed network deployable.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 12A Novel Transformable Structural Mechanism for Doubly Ruled Hypar Surfaces(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers(ASME), 2015) Maden, Feray; Aktaş, Engin; Korkmaz, KorayA novel structural mechanism (SM) that is capable of transforming itself into various hyperbolic paraboloid (hypar) geometries is introduced in this paper. Composed of straight bars and novel joint types, the SM is designed based on the ruled surface generation method. Thus, the paper first investigates the geometrical properties and morphology of the hypar surface. Second, it constructs the SM and discusses its transformation capability with respect to its kinematic properties. Then, it presents a parametric model not only to analyze the geometry and possible configurations of the SM but also to prepare a model for the structural analysis. Finally, a transformable shelter structure is proposed as an architectural application of the SM and its feasibility is tested based on the structural analysis conducted in different configurations of the structure. According to the results of the structural analysis, the strength, and the stiffness of the structure are discussed in detail.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.
