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.

They constitute a significant portion of deployable structures. Since 1960s many researchers sought to form novel structures using the scissor units. In 1990s Hoberman brought a new perspective to the field when he used the loops, not the units to form linkages. Starting from mid 2000s, other researchers joined into this new approach of design. One of the latest researches presented a design for scaling a circular forms with anti-parallelogram loops. This study shows that an anti-parallelogram loop assembly can also be used for scaling planar curves with variable curvature.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.Article Citation - Scopus: 9Design Alternatives of Network of Altmann Linkages(WITPress, 2017) Atarer, Fulya; Korkmaz, Koray; Kiper, GökhanThis paper presents a method of building deployable network assemblies derived from the single degree of freedom (DoF) over constrained Altmann linkage as a basic module. The method is based on assembling linkages with common links and joints or overlapping with extra R or 2R joints. New loops are emerged with overlapping method. The networks created have a single DoF, are over-constrained and have both fully deployed and folded configurations. The computer-aided models (CAD) are used to demonstrate these derived novel mechanisms.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Design of Adaptive Structures by Kinematic Synthesis of Mechanisms(CRC Press, 2013) Akgün, Yenal; Maden, Feray; Korkmaz, KorayParallel to the development of material science and computer technologies, adaptive structures and smart building components have become the demand of contemporary architecture. However, in order to design adaptive systems, basic knowledge on kinematic synthesis is needed. This paper introduces the fundamental principles of the kinematic synthesis of mechanisms and expresses the potential structural uses of common mechanisms. For this purpose, main concepts of the mechanisms are introduced and types of kinematic synthesis are explored by the help of innovative examples. In this context, firstly, type synthesis methods are explained. Second step covers the path generation rules, and the final step includes the design of multi-loop and chain mechanisms. During the explanation of the aforementioned principles, innovative adaptive structures which are designed by the authors are introduced as well. These structures are all derived from common planar and spatial mechanisms such as four-bar linkages, Watt mechanisms, scissor systems, Bennett linkages and different multi-loop mechanisms.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 2Design of Reconfigurable Doubly-Curved Canopy Structure(CRC Press, 2013) Maden, Feray; Korkmaz, Koray; Akgün, YenalIn this paper, a new reconfigurable doubly-curved structure has been developed for a canopy roof. The proposed structure can transform itself to various configurations according to the activity and user requirements. It not only changes its shape from a planar geometry to doubly-curved geometries by means of actuators, but also becomes stable and carries loads. The main differences between proposed structure and similar deployable bar structures are that the proposed structure is more flexible with 2DoF and it requires less number of bars and joints. To obtain the doubly-curved geometry, a novel method has been introduced. After discussing the kinematic behavior of the system, a set of structural analyses are performed in three different geometric configurations of the proposed structure.Article Citation - Scopus: 12Shapes of Miura Mesh Mechanism With Mobility One(Multi-Science Publishing Co. Ltd, 2013) Beatini, Valentina; Korkmaz, KorayThe Miura Ori is a mechanism composed by a polyhedral deployable surface. It has favorable qualities from engineering prospective that lead the growing interest on it. The present work focuses on its transmission of motion. The mechanism can be represented by spherical 4 bar linkages, and on this account a simple and effective mobility formula is presented. The mechanism having a number of excessive rigid members, it is also possible to remove all or some of them, variously arranged. The changes are included in the calculation of allowable mobility of the system. The resulting tool can be directly used for the design of deployable Miura Ori surfaces with customized shape.Book Part Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 10Kinematic Design of a Reconfigurable Deployable Canopy(Springer Verlag, 2014) Kiper, Gökhan; Gürcü, Fulya; Korkmaz, Koray; Söylemez, EresA reconfigurable and deployable mechanism is proposed for a canopy which can also be used as a tent or a semi-open structure. The proposed single degree-of-freedom mechanism has four as-sembly modes. The conditions for deployment and reconfiguration of the mechanism are derived. These conditions impose three equality and two inequality constraints on the 11 design parameters of the mechanism. A virtual model of the mechanism is constructed in Excel for design and simulation purposes. A computational case study is presented.
