Article Power transmission entropy(Inderscience Enterprises Ltd., 2008) Özdemir, SerhanMechanical transmissions have been characterised traditionally by their transmission efficiencies. This is given by the ratio of the output to the input of the transmitted power. Unfortunately, the power transmission phenomenon is slightly more complex than that. As any designer would agree, each of these transmission localities is a source of uncertainty. Once formulated, this statement of uncertainty would reflect the designer's trust in the transmission. By virtue of the proposed approach, power transmission is no longer a deterministic entity but becomes a probabilistic one. This paper discusses the overlooked uncertainty inherent in every transmission.Article Local Sparse Coding Control of Cvpsts(Inderscience Enterprises, 2005) Özdemir, SerhanThis paper discusses simulations of a control scheme based on locally sparse coded networks (CMACs) for a novel previously proposed continuously variable transmission (CVT), a hybrid continuously variable power split transmission (CVPST) (Osdemir and Schueller, 2002). Automotive transmissions match the speed and the torque of the power source to the speed and torque requirements of the load. Properly designed CVTs have shown potential to improve efficiency and performance. The main advantage of CMACs is fast computation because of their simple operational principles. Simulation results have shown that memory contents either reach a stable limit cycle or an attractor based on the selection of network parameters and the training method. Both online and offline training are possible.Article An Analysis of Vehicular Traffic Flow Using Langevin Equation(Faculty of Transport and Traffic Sciences, University of Zagreb, 2015) Koşun, Çağlar; Çelik, Hüseyin Murat; Özdemir, SerhanTraffic flow data are stochastic in nature, and an abundance of literature exists thereof. One way to express stochastic data is the Langevin equation. Langevin equation consists of two parts. The first part is known as the deterministic drift term, the other as the stochastic diffusion term. Langevin equation does not only help derive the deterministic and random terms of the selected portion of the city of Istanbul traffic empirically, but also sheds light on the underlying dynamics of the flow. Drift diagrams have shown that slow lane tends to get congested faster when vehicle speeds attain a value of 25 km/h, and it is 20 km/h for the fast lane. Three or four distinct regimes may be discriminated again from the drift diagrams; congested, intermediate, and free-flow regimes. At places, even the intermediate regime may be divided in two, often with readiness to congestion. This has revealed the fact that for the selected portion of the highway, there are two main states of flow, namely, congestion and free-flow, with an intermediate state where the noise-driven traffic flow forces the flow into either of the distinct regimes. © 2015, Faculty of Transport and Traffic Engineering.
