Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5Determination of the Dill Parameters of Thick Positive Resist for Use in Modeling Applications(Elsevier Ltd., 2011) Roeder, G.; Liu, S.; Aygün, Gülnur; Evanschitzky, P.; Erdmann, A.; Schellenberger, M.; Pfitzner, LThe determination of Dill parameters of thick resist is very important to improve simulation models of resist exposure and real world processes. A new extraction technique of Dill parameters based on spectroscopic ellipsometry in combination with an advanced resist exposure model is proposed for thick resist analysis. The complex refractive index of the resist is related to the relative concentration of the photoactive compound in the resist in order to describe the vertical distribution of the refractive index and the extinction coefficient. Moreover, Dill parameters are extracted by directly fitting the bleaching curves to the measured ellipsometry data. The new approach was investigated experimentally by spectroscopic ellipsometry measurements on AZ5214E resist with two moderate layer thickness values in order to verify the accuracy of the new method. Dill parameters were extracted by using this new technique and by applying resist samples subjected to different exposure doses. Possible reasons for the variation of Dill parameters depending on resist thickness are explained. Furthermore, advantages, limitations and potential improvements of the model are discussed. Finally, the impact of Dill parameter variation on image formation in the resist is demonstrated by applying the spectroscopic ellipsometer analysis results as input parameters to the lithography simulator Dr.LiTHO.Article Citation - WoS: 103Citation - Scopus: 132Break-Even Analysis and Size Optimization of a Pv/Wind Hybrid Energy Conversion System With Battery Storage - a Case Study(Elsevier Ltd., 2009) Ekren, Orhan; Yetkin Ekren, Banu; Özerdem, BarışThis paper aims to show an optimum sizing procedure of autonomous PV/wind hybrid energy system with battery storage and a break-even analysis of this system and extension of transmission line. We use net present value (NPV) method for the comparison of autonomous hybrid energy system and extension of transmission line cases. The case study is completed for the satisfaction of the electricity consumption of global system for mobile communication base station (GSM) at Izmir Institute of Technology Campus Area, Urla, Izmir, Turkey. First, we optimize the PV/wind energy system using response surface methodology (RSM) which is a collection of statistical and mathematical methods relying on optimization of response surface with design parameters. As a result of RSM, the optimum PV area, wind turbine rotor swept area, and battery capacity are obtained as 3.95 m2, 29.4 m2, 31.92 kW h, respectively. These results led to $37,033.9 hybrid energy system cost. Second, break-even analysis is done to be able to decide the optimum distance where the hybrid energy system is more economical than the extension of the transmission line. The result shows that, if the distance between national electricity network and the GSM base station location where the hybrid energy system is assumed to be installed is at a distance more than 4817 m, the installation of hybrid energy system is more economical than the electricity network.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 1Errors Associated With Swelling in the Analysis of Polymer-Solvent Diffusion Measurements(Elsevier Ltd., 2005) Alsoy Altınkaya, SacideSorption curves are generated from a mathematical model which includes the influence of the polymer swelling for unsteady-state sorption of a vapor or liquid by a polymer. To investigate the simultaneous effects of the specific volumes of the polymer-penetrant pair and the difference between the final and initial equilibrium concentrations on the sorption curves, statistical experimental design approach is used. Simulation results obtained from the numerical solution of model equations are utilized to estimate the error that would occur if one simply evaluates the diffusion coefficient using the traditional formulas derived from the analytical solution of the sorption equation. An empirical expression is developed that describes the effects of the difference between the final and initial equilibrium concentrations and the specific volumes of the polymer and the penetrant on the magnitude of error in diffusivity associated with the use of one of these traditional formulas so called the initial slope method. The predictive ability of the regression model is tested by performing additional simulations not used in the regression analysis.Article Citation - WoS: 40Citation - Scopus: 52Partial Al Foam Filling of Commercial 1050h14 Al Crash Boxes: the Effect of Box Column Thickness and Foam Relative Density on Energy Absorption(Elsevier Ltd., 2010) Toksoy, Ahmet Kaan; Güden, MustafaThe crushing behavior of partially Al closed-cell foam filled commercial 1050H14 Al crash boxes was determined at quasi-static and dynamic deformation velocities. The quasi-static and dynamic crushing of the boxes were simulated using the LS-DYNA. The results showed that partial foam filling tended to change the deformation mode of empty boxes from a non-sequential to a sequential folding mode. In general, the experimental and simulation results showed similar mean load values and deformation modes. The SEA values of empty, partially and fully foam filled boxes were predicted as function of box wall thickness between 1 and 3 mm and foam filler relative density between 0 and 0.2, using the analytical equations developed for the mean crushing loads. The analysis indicated that both fully and partially foam filled boxes were energetically more efficient than empty boxes above a critical foam filler relative density. Partial foam filling, however, decreases the critical foam filler density at increasing box wall thicknesses.Article Citation - WoS: 70Citation - Scopus: 81Experimental and Numerical Studies on the Quasi-Static and Dynamic Crushing Responses of Multi-Layer Trapezoidal Aluminum Corrugated Sandwiches(Elsevier Ltd., 2014) Kılıçaslan, Cenk; Güden, Mustafa; Kutlay Odacı, İsmet; Taşdemirci, AlperThe axial crushing responses of bonded and brazed multi-layer 1050 H14 trapezoid alaluminum corru- gated core (fin) sandwich structures, with and without aluminum interlayer sheets in 0°/0° and 0°/90° core orientations, were both experimentally and numerically investigated at quasi-static and dynamic strain rates. Multi-layering the core layers decreased the buckling stress and increased the densification strain. The experimental and simulation compression stress–strain curves showed reasonable agree-ments with each other. Two main crushing modes were observed experimentally and numerically: the progressive fin folding and the shearing interlayer aluminum sheets. Both, the simulation and experimental buckling and post-buckling stresses increased when the interlayer sheets were constraint laterally. The multi-layer samples without interlayer sheets in 0°/90° core orientation exhibited higher buckling stresses than the samples in 0°/0° core orientation. The increased buckling stress of 0°/0° oriented core samples without interlayer sheets at high strain rate was attributed to the micro-inertial effects which led to increased bending forces at higher impact velocities.
