Article A Hybrid Actuation System for Enhancing the Performance Metrics Related to Kinesthetic-Type Haptic Devices(IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2025) Kucukoglu, Sefa Furkan; Can Dede, Mehmet ismetHigh torque to volume ratio, fast response, and high dynamic range are some of the desired performance metrics for kinesthetic-type haptic device actuation systems. In this article, we present a hybrid actuation system consisting of an active actuator and a magnetorheological fluid-based brake (MRF brake). MRF brake's tradeoffs, namely, off-state torque and slow response (compared to an electric motor), are investigated and resolved by this hybrid actuation system. First, the transient behavior of the MRF brake is investigated and an mathematical model is proposed to mimic its transient response behavior. It is found that the performance of the proposed model performs better than the conventionally used first-order transfer function. Second, hybrid actuation system is constructed. The active actuator is used for compensating for the speed of the response and the off-state torque based on the proposed mathematical model of the MRF brake. It is measured that the off-state torque is largely eliminated from 0.178 to 0.008 N center dot m, the dynamic range is enlarged from 15 to 42.4 dB, and its time constant is improved from 69.6 to 4.4 ms when the hybrid actuation system is used instead of just an MRF brake.Conference Object Energy and Exergy Analysis of a Roof-Mounted Photovoltaic System in Gebze-Turkey(Springer, 2024) Khalejan, Seyed Hamed Pour Rahmati; Cankurt, Tolga; Dede, Mehmet İsmet CanThis study investigates the electrical and thermal exergy, power conversion efficiency and exergy efficiency of a roof-mounted photovoltaic (PV) system considering environmental parameters such as solar irradiation, ambient temperature and wind speed over a year. The values of solar exergy and solar potential are obtained by taking into account the solar insolation. Experimental and theoretical results indicate that wind speed and surface temperature have significant effects on the thermal exergy and exergy efficiency of solar PV systems. The mean solar potential in the region was found to be 93%. In addition, the electrical exergy was varied from 9145 W to 40460 W and the thermal exergy of PV systems was varied from 1639 W to 6193 W. While the range of PV power conversion efficiency varies from 6.15% to 11.56% over a year, the range of exergy efficiency varies from 5.31% to 9.78%. © 2024, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 10The Design and Kinematic Representation of a Soft Robot in a Simulation Environment(Cambridge Univ Press, 2024) Emet, Hazal; Gur, Berke; Dede, Mehmet Ismet CanThe increase of human presence in the subsea and seabed environments necessitates the development of more capable and highly dexterous, innovative underwater manipulators. Biomimetic soft-robot arms represent a promising candidate for such manipulation systems. However, the well-known modeling techniques and control theories of traditional rigid robots do not apply to soft robots. The challenges of kinematic and dynamic modeling of soft robots with infinite degrees of freedom require the development of dedicated modeling methods. A novel procedure for representing soft-robotic arms and their motion in a rigid-body simulation environment is proposed in this paper. The proposed procedure relies on the piecewise constant curvature approach to simplify the very complex model of hyper-redundant soft-robotic arms, making it suitable for real-time applications. The proposed method is implemented and verified to be used in model-mediated teleoperation of the soft arms of a biomimetic robotic squid designed for underwater manipulation as a case study.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Modeling a Magneto-Rheological Fluid-Based Brake Via a Neural Network Method(Springer international Publishing Ag, 2022) Kucukoglu, Sefa Furkan; Dede, Mehmet Ismet Can; Ceccarelli, MarcoIdentifying the model of a magneto-rheological (MR) fluid-based brake is extremely important for designing and controlling a haptic device with hybrid actuation. Therefore, in this study, an Elman Recurrent Neural Network (ERNN) is designed to understand and model a characterization of an MR fluid-based rotational brake. Three important factors that affect the MR brake's performance are chosen as inputs: current, speed, and the first derivative of the input current. The proposed network is trained, and the performance of the network is tested with three different experimental scenarios. Then, the effect of these inputs on the system is investigated. According to the results, it can be said that the designed ERNN is a good candidate for modelling an MR brake.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1Kinematic Representation of a Biomimetic Squid Soft Robot's Arms in a Simulation Environment(Springer international Publishing Ag, 2022) Emet, Hazal; Dede, M. I. CanBiomimetic robot systems have received attention from researchers and in accordance the implementation of soft robotic arms has been studied. Kinematic and dynamic modeling of robots with infinite degrees of freedom is challenging and a number of methods have been proposed. In this work, a procedure is proposed to represent soft robot arm motion in a simulation environment. A biomimetic squid robot is used as a case study. This robot's soft arms are modeled by using the Piecewise Constant Curvature approach. This model is visualized by discretizing the soft arms into a finite number of rigid-body manipulators in MatLab using its 3D animation toolbox.Article Enabling Personalization of a Robotic Surgery Procedure Via a Surgery Training Simulator(Cambridge University Press, 2022) Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can; Büyüköztekin, Tarık; Hanalıoğlu, Şahin; Işıkay, İlkay; Berker, MustafaAlthough robotic or robot-assisted surgery has been increasingly used by many surgical disciplines, its application in cranial or skull base surgery is still in its infancy. Master-slave teleoperation setting of these robotic systems enables these surgical procedures to be replicated in a virtual reality environment for surgeon training purposes. A variety of teleoperation modes were previously determined with respect to the motion capability of the surgeon's hand that wears the ring as the surgeon handles a surgical tool inside the surgical workspace. In this surgery training simulator developed for a robot-assisted endoscopic skull base surgery, a new strategy is developed to identify the preferred motion axes of the surgeon. This simulator is designed specifically for tuning the teleoperation system for each surgeon via the identification. This tuning capability brings flexibility to adjust the system operation with respect to the motion characteristics of the surgeon.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 5Toward Safe and High-Performance Human-Robot Collaboration Via Implementation of Redundancy and Understanding the Effects of Admittance Term Parameters(Cambridge University Press, 2022) Kanık, Mert; Ayit, Orhan; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can; Tatlıcıoğlu, EnverSummary Today, demandsin industrial manufacturing mandate humans to work with large-scale industrial robots, and this collaboration may result in dangerous conditions for humans. To deal with this situation, this work proposes a novel approach for redundant large-scale industrial robots. In the proposed approach, an admittance controller is designed to regulate the interaction between the end effector of the robot and the human. Additionally, an obstacle avoidance algorithm is implemented in the null space of the robot to prevent any possible unexpected collision between the human and the links of the robot. After safety performance of this approach is verified via simulations and experimental studies, the effect of the parameters of the admittance controller on the performance of collaboration in terms of both accuracy and total human effort is investigated. This investigation is carried out via 8 experiments by the participation of 10 test subjects in which the effect of different admittance controller parameters such as mass and damper are compared. As a result of this investigation, tuning insights for such parameters are revealed.Book Part An Experimental Setup and Procedure for Stiffness Evaluation of Robot Manipulators(Springer, 2021) Görgülü, İbrahimcan; Paksoy, Erkan; Carbone, Giuseppe; Dede, Mehmet İsmet CanIn this paper, an experimental test setup for stiffness evaluation of a spatial parallel mechanism is introduced. The parallel mechanism used in this study is R-CUBE mechanism. In the test setup, a highly rigid gantry-type manipulator’s end-effector is coupled with the R-CUBE’s mobile platform. As the gantry manipulator is actuated the resultant reaction forces/moments are measured via a force\torque sensor. Subsequently, compliant displacements of R-CUBE are measured by using a coordinate measuring machine. The obtained results are presented and discussed in this paper. © 2021, The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 2A New Correction Coefficient Formula for the Simplified Dynamic Model of a Surgical Robot(Springer international Publishing Ag, 2021) Ayit, Orhan; Dede, Mehmet Ismet CanExecution of model-based control algorithms such as computed torque technique requires the knowledge of the dynamic model of the robotic system. In our work, the active part of the surgical robot, NeuRoboScope, has a parallel kinematics architecture and the dynamic model is relatively complicated to run in a microprocessor with limited computing capabilities. For this reason, we formulated a simplified dynamic model to run in the selected microprocessor. In this work, a new formula for calculating the correction coefficients is described to minimize the errors in the whole orientation range of the robot's base platform. This new formula is examined in terms of execution time and the result is reported in this paper.Book Part Citation - Scopus: 2Computation Time Efficient Stiffness Analysis of the Modified R-Cube Mechanism(Springer, 2019) Görgülü, İbrahimcan; Dede, Mehmet İsmet CanParallel manipulators are known to be more stiff than the serial manipulators. However, modeling the stiffness for parallel manipulators are difficult compared to serial manipulators due to the constrained structure and passive joints. In addition, computation of the stiffness model for parallel manipulators are exhausting since it requires an iterative solution algorithm due requirement of force-position convergence of all serial chains connecting to the same mobile platform. Direct solutions are faster however, they lack in accuracy. In this study, direct solution is preferred for real-time application and analytic stiffness model of the modified R-CUBE mechanism is obtained by using Virtual Joint Method (VJM). The finite element (FE) model is constructed and simulated to validate the analytical model. Then, a combination of external wrenches $$\pm 5$$ N in various directions are applied on the mobile platform in both FE and VJM in some critical poses. Finally, the computed numerical results are listed and compared along with their computation times. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019
