Article Citation - Scopus: 1Sizing of Autonomous Wind/Solar Hybrid Energy Conversion Systems for Urla, Turkey(ACTA Press, 2009) Özerdem, Barış; Ekren, OrhanIn this paper, an optimum sizing procedure of autonomous hybrid (wind + solar) energy system is presented which can be used to satisfy the requirements of given load distribution. The main purpose of this study is to find out an appropriate wind-photovoltaic hybrid energy system to satisfy electricity consumption of GSM (Global System for Mobile communication) base station at Izmir Institute of Technology Campus Area, Urla, Izmir, Turkey. To do this, monthly average daily solar radiation and wind speed data are collected. The monthly average wind speeds are measured at 10 m height during 3 years period on Izmir Institute of Technology Campus Area. The monthly average wind speed values are obtained between 5.7 and 7.7 m/s, on the other hand, the monthly average daily value of solar radiations on horizontal surfaces are ranged from 1.4 to 6.9kWh/m2 at Izmir Institute of Technology Campus Area. The hybrid system considered in the present analysis consists of one 5kW nominal power wind energy conversion systems (WECS), 21.82 m2 of photovoltaic (PV) panels (18 mono crystal PV panels each having 75 W power output) together with a battery storage system.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Tensile Adhesion of Type I Collagen To Titanium Alloy and Calcium Phosphate Coated Surfaces With Different Roughness Values(IOS Press, 2002) Özerdem, BarışThe purpose of total joint arthroplasty is to reduce pain and restore function. Its success depends on the formation of a new bone that stabilizes the prosthesis. The proposed solution for this important problem is to have bio-coated implant surfaces which are more conductive to bone growth. Additionally, collagen has long been used as a matrix for medical applications, because of its biocompatibility and adaptability. In this study, a test method for measuring the tensile adhesion strength of collagen to titanium alloy and calcium phosphate coated surfaces with different roughness values was developed, in order to evaluate how well the collagen adheres to the metallic and bio-coated surfaces. A precision motion system was used to stretch gels that were adherent to the plate surfaces. The tests were done in DMEM solution. The adhesive strength between the collagen gel and plate was significantly higher for calcium phosphate coated surfaces. Adhesive strength was highest in the sample with the highest roughness value.
