Article Reversibility and Entropy in Bubbling Fluidized Beds: A Recurrence-Based Analysis(Elsevier, 2026) Zarghami, Reza; Mohammadpourfard, Mousa; Akkurt, Gulden GokcenNonlinear time series analysis techniques were applied to characterize bubbling fluidization. The delay method was used to reconstruct the state space attractor and analyze the reconstructed state space. The experiments were carried out in a laboratory-scale fluidized bed, operated under ambient conditions and with various sizes of particles, settled bed heights, measurement heights, and superficial gas velocities. The reversibility of the gas-solid fluidized bed hydrodynamics was investigated using pressure fluctuations by recurrence plot analysis. The anti-diagonal lines of the recurrence plot (RP) were regarded as a measure of reversibility. It was shown that the reversibility versus gas velocity has a concave shape in the bubbling regime. The highest reversibility occurs at velocities remarkably lower than the turbulent transition velocity. In addition, reversibility increases as the size of the particles increases. The Kolmogorov entropy was also estimated to confirm the reversibility analysis in the state space domain. In addition, the average cycle frequency and wideband energy in the frequency domain were also used to clarify the results in the state domain. It was found that a minimum in average cycle frequency, wideband energy, and entropy with an increase in the velocity corresponds to the transition between macro-structures and finer structures of the fluidization system. This minimum was primarily found in the macro-structures of the bubbling fluidization system. These findings can provide a practical tool for the optimal design and operation of the fluidized bed.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 7Time-Resolved Eeg Signal Analysis for Motor Imagery Activity Recognition(Elsevier, 2023) Olcay, Bilal Orkan; Karaçalı, BilgeAccurately characterizing brain activity requires detailed feature analysis in the temporal, spatial, and spectral domains. While previous research has proposed various spatial and spectral feature extraction methods to distinguish between different cognitive tasks, temporal feature analysis for each separate brain region and frequency band has been largely overlooked. This study introduces two novel approaches for recognizing cognitive activity: temporal entropic profiling and time-aligned common spatio-spectral patterns analysis. These approaches capture and use discriminative short-lived signal segments for motor imagery activity recognition. In Approach-1, we evaluated nine different measures to determine timing parameters that showed altered behavior associated with maximal inter-activity differences, which we then used in a machine-learning framework. In Approach-2, we used the best-performing signal characteristic measures from Approach-1 to determine the optimum latency of each channel at each frequency band for a CSP-based activity recognition strategy. We evaluated both approaches on two online available motor imagery EEG datasets and achieved average recognition accuracy levels of 86%. We compared our methods with four established BCI methods. The performance results show that our approaches exceeded the benchmark methods' performances, with notable improvements in the proposed time-aligned common spatio-spectral patterns approach. This study demonstrates that motor imagery recognition performance is improved when a temporal analysis is adopted alongside spatio-spectral neural feature analysis and that timing parameters associated with the maximal entropic difference of EEG segments to the cognitive tasks varied between different brain regions and subjects. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd
