Conference Object Optimizing Integrated Shading Device and Light Shelf for Daylight Performance and Visual Comfort in Architecture Studio(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2024) Avci, P.; Ekici, B.; Kazanasmaz, Z.T.To provide a sustainable interior, it is essential to consider visual comfort and energy efficiency for the occupants' well-being. Daylight is crucial in providing visual comfort while proposing energy-efficient design alternatives. Using daylight as a primary source is one of the most crucial strategies. However, controlling daylight for unwanted situations such as discomfort glare is important. There have been several research studies on daylighting, visual comfort, and shading techniques. Shading devices are façade configurations to control daylight, while light shelves distribute daylight evenly through the space. There are two types of classifications for shading devices: adaptive ones and non-adaptive ones. Numerous research studies have been conducted on daylighting, energy consumption, occupancy performance, and shading systems. Shading technologies, whether adaptive or not, provide benefits and drawbacks. Even though optimizing them is one way to design non-adaptive shading devices, they require minimal maintenance. This study aims to integrate adaptive shading devices and light shelves for university campus buildings to provide lighting design strategies. The aim is to create a study environment that promotes well-being and academic achievement. To pursue this study, three optimization algorithms were run to find the nearly optimal solution. The goal was to both maximize Daylight Autonomy and uniformity values. Results showed that HypE and SPEA2 results discovered near-optimal DA above 75% and uniformity between 0.6 and 0.7. © 2024 IEEE.Book Part Application of Geothermal Energy in Hydrogen Production(Taylor and Francis, 2024) Ayzit, T.; Özmumcu, A.; Baba, A.Compared to other renewable resources, geothermal energy is a low-cost, technically proven, reliable, clean, and safe energy source that has been used in various fields and applications for many decades. These energy sources can be used directly or by conversion to other forms of energy. The use of geothermal energy for various purposes such as electricity, heating, cooling, greenhouses, dry food, thermal tourism, fisheries, and mineral extraction is widespread in many countries. Today’s installed geothermal capacity is dominated by the United States with about 3.7 GW, followed by Indonesia (2.1 GW), the Philippines (1.9 GW), Turkey (1.7 GW), and New Zealand. Global geothermal power generation capacity at the end of 2020 was 15.6 GW. The top ten geothermal producers account for nearly 90% of the global market, and many countries, especially Europe, plan to invest in geothermal soon. Looking at the direct use of geothermal energy for thermal applications, only four countries (China, Turkey, Iceland, and Japan) account for three-quarters of the energy consumed. Hydrogen can provide a number of benefits for future energy systems. Hydrogen can serve as storage for intermittent renewables or provide grid services. It can replace natural gas in industrial heating processes that are otherwise difficult to decarbonise. Therefore, geothermal resources can be used to produce clean hydrogen. Within this section, the importance and use of geothermal energy have been highlighted. At the same time, detailed information is given about the importance of hydrogen, its production, and its use in connection with geothermal energy. © 2025 selection and editorial matter, Mohammad Reza Rahimpour, Mohammad Amin Makarem, and Parvin Kiani.Book Part Citation - Scopus: 2Comparative Mapping(CRC Press, 2024) Frary, A.; Doganlar, S.; Ratnaparkhe, M.B.In the mid 1980s, restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis was first applied to plants for the purposes of creating genetic linkage maps. Using the maps developed for major crop species, the genes controlling qualitative and quantitative traits could be detected and then selected for (via closely linked molecular markers) in breeding programs. Advances in DNA marker technology not only allowed the rapid generation of high-resolution plant genetic maps, but also facilitated detailed comparisons among species. When complementary molecular markers are mapped across related species, it is then possible to align the chromosomes of those species to create comparative linkage maps. In this way, genomic similarities between species are revealed so that genetic information about one species may be extended to others and evolutionary inferences drawn. © 2008, CRC Press.

Robotic-assisted surgery is used in various surgical fields. It is mainly used as a tool in numerous disciplines' minimally invasive surgery procedures (MIS). Since it has so many different application areas and actors, the determination of its adoption factors and evaluation process of these factors' priorities for surgeons is a highly complex issue that includes multicriteria of decision-making and numerous surgeons. A comprehensive list of these possible adoption factors recognized by conducting an extensive literature review, was picked and chosen. First, we had 310 factors mentioned in the literature that have a potential impact on the adoption process of the RAS. We have reduced these to 20 factors that are categorized under five different main criteria. By this, a unique AHP tree that is this thesis' contribution to the literature was developed. The research data was collected by an online survey from the surgeons of various disciplines working in Türkiye. Our final sample to evaluate priorities consisted of forty-one surgeon responses in total. The evaluation process consists of three steps: analyzing individual-based pairwise comparison matrices, their consistency rations, and their priority vectors. We executed the same workflow for the aggregated analysis for disciplined-based and all aggregation. Results are examined in detail and concluded with insightful interpretations. © 2024 PICMET.Conference Object The Statistical Assessment of Variables Affecting Conservation Condition for Historic Houses(Avestia Publishing, 2024) Demir,H.A.; Bulut,N.; Turan,M.H.Conservation condition is the structural state of a historic building at a particular time. This study aims to determine the variables affecting conservation condition of heritage buildings in historic urban sites. The methodology includes selection of the case study, site survey and listing of historic house characteristics with conventional tools of architectural conservation, and determination of variables affecting their conservation condition with statistical tools. The houses in a portion of Kuyulu neighborhood, and in a portion of Kurtuluş Street, presenting variety in terms of built heritage characteristics in Antakya historic urban site, which experienced a destroying earthquake sequence in 2023, were focused on. The dataset prepared in 2019 site survey is examined by T-tests, ANOVA, regression, and exploratory spatial data analysis statistical tools. As a result, construction technique, land use, and number of storeys were determined as significant variables affecting conservation condition. While addressing abandonment issues and considering both commercial and residential functions for adaptive reuse can positively affect conservation conditions, it is crucial to recognize buildings with combined construction systems show a negative effect on conservation condition which should not be preferred in future constructions and need priority for consolidation interventions. Meanwhile, the construction period and alterations are revealed as insignificant variables on conservation condition. The study concludes that systematic planning, guided by statistical insights, can prioritize interventions and enhance positive variables corresponding to the heritage qualities that have positive impact on conservation condition while mitigating negative ones, thus ensuring the preservation of historic urban sites. © 2024, Avestia Publishing.

This is particularly the case when it comes to electric vehicles and their batteries. The technology of the latter is based on Lithium-ion electrochemical reactions. During the batteries discharge, the electrochemical reactions are exothermic, and they are endothermic during the charging phase. The large change in temperature threatens the life duration of the batteries, and when combined to other factors, their safety. Therefore, the thermal management of the electric vehicle battery pack is a critical aspect that requires specific attention. In this paper, we present the work conducted by our group on thermally efficient solutions for maintaining the battery cells within the temperature range expected by manufacturers. The thermal management solution consists in inserting between the battery cells a constructal-based liquid cooling system. Such systems are called canopy-To-canopy architectures. The cooling fluid is driven from a trunk channel to perpendicular branches that make the tree canopy. An opposite tree collects the liquid in such a way that the two trees match canopy-To-canopy. The results indicate that such configurations allow to extract most of the non-uniformly generated heat by the battery cell during the discharging phase, while using a small mass flow rate. Furthermore, the configuration with 5 branches appears to be the one with high thermal efficiency and low pumping power.

However, oil is the only product that is procured from soybean seeds. A large variety of other products and by-products are also obtained from the seeds either before or after oil is extracted. Interest in the composition of soy products has exponentially grown because numerous potential anticarcinogens and other therapeutic agents have been reported to be found in soybeans and related products. Soybean seeds are grown primarily to produce oil which has a unique fatty acid profile; it predominantly contains unsaturated fatty acids, including monounsaturated fatty acids and polyunsaturated fatty acids. Linoleic acid, and to a much lesser extent, a-linolenic acid, are the most abundant fatty acids of soybean oil. Fermentation is a traditional method that has been reported to not only improve nutritional content but also decrease undesirable compounds, thereby recreating a better product with improved nutritional value. © 2022 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.Conference Object Investigation of In-Gap Field Enhancement at Terahertz Frequencies for a Metasurface Enhanced Sensor(Optica Publishing Group (formerly OSA), 2021) Tugay,H.; Altan,H.; Demirhan,Y.; Ozyuzer,L.; Sabah,C.[No abstract available]Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1Combined Effect of Multi-Reflection and Spectral Shadowing Crosstalk in Phase-Otdr System Using Fiber Bragg Grating Array(Optica Publishing Group (formerly OSA), 2020) Kocal,E.B.; Yüksel,K.; Wuilpart,M.The multi-reflection crosstalk when combined with the spectral-shadowing effect has been shown to make the interpretation of spectral analysis more difficult in Phase-OTDR sensing system based on weak fiber Bragg grating array. © 2021 The Author(s).
