Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 2First Measurement of the Forward Rapidity Gap Distribution in Ppb Collisions at √snn=8.16 Tev(Amer Physical Soc, 2023) Karapınar, Güler; CMS Collaboration; Ambrogi, F.; Bergauer, T.; Dragicevic, M.; Ero, J.; Zhokin, A.For the first time at LHC energies, the forward rapidity gap spectra from proton-lead collisions for both proton and lead dissociation processes are presented. The analysis is performed over 10.4 units of pseudorapidity at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of ffisffi than in previous measurements of diffractive production in proton-nucleus collisions. For lead dissociation processes, which correspond to the pomeron-lead event topology, the EPOS-LHC generator predictions are a factor of 2 below the data, but the model gives a reasonable description of the rapidity gap spectrum shape. For the pomeron-proton topology, the EPOS-LHC, QGSJET II, and HIJING predictions are all at least a factor of 5 lower than the data. The latter effect might be explained by a significant contribution of ultraperipheral photoproduction events mimicking the signature of diffractive processes. These data may be of significant help in understanding the high energy limit of quantum chromodynamics and for modeling cosmic ray air showers.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Liquid Metal-Tunable Miniaturized Bimodal Cavity for Enhanced Measurement Accuracy in the Ism Bands(Ieee-inst Electrical Electronics Engineers inc, 2024) Karatay, Anil; Yaman, FatihEnhancing measurement accuracy or reducing the effect of the neighboring modes in resonant cavities may necessitate the separation of mode frequencies. However, in ISM-band measurement configurations utilizing a rectangular or cylindrical cavity, the placement of the first two modes at 2.45 and 5.8 GHz is unattainable, necessitating the presence of additional modes in between that would potentially degrade measurement accuracy. This article begins with an analytical approach, employing Lagrange multipliers for the first time to reveal the level of separation achievable in the frequency domain between the initial two modes within these types of conventional cavities. The analytical results were also verified with a numerical grid search. Subsequently, innovative strategies have been introduced to surpass this intrinsic constraint that reduces the measurement accuracy in various applications. A novel miniaturized cavity configuration has been proposed to operate bimodally at 2.45 and 5.8 GHz and manufactured with a 3-D printer. It has been ensured that there are no physical modes present in between, and measurements of the structure have been conducted. Another notable innovation of the article is the capability of tuning the proposed cavity structure by means of liquid metal displacement. Thus, a more flexible tuning method compared to mechanical tuning techniques can be achieved, enabling precise adjustment of the desired measurement frequency. Good agreement between the simulation and measurement results has been reported.Article Citation - Scopus: 20Estrus Detection and Dairy Cow Identification With Cascade Deep Learning for Augmented Reality-Ready Livestock Farming(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023) Arıkan, İ.; Ayav, T.; Seçkin, A.Ç.; Soygazi, F.Accurate prediction of the estrus period is crucial for optimizing insemination efficiency and reducing costs in animal husbandry, a vital sector for global food production. Precise estrus period determination is essential to avoid economic losses, such as milk production reductions, delayed calf births, and disqualification from government support. The proposed method integrates estrus period detection with cow identification using augmented reality (AR). It initiates deep learning-based mounting detection, followed by identifying the mounting region of interest (ROI) using YOLOv5. The ROI is then cropped with padding, and cow ID detection is executed using YOLOv5 on the cropped ROI. The system subsequently records the identified cow IDs. The proposed system accurately detects mounting behavior with 99% accuracy, identifies the ROI where mounting occurs with 98% accuracy, and detects the mounting couple with 94% accuracy. The high success of all operations with the proposed system demonstrates its potential contribution to AR and artificial intelligence applications in livestock farming. © 2023 by the authors.Article Citation - Scopus: 5Regional Soft Error Vulnerability and Error Propagation Analysis for Gpgpu Applications(Springer, 2022) Öz, I.; Karadaş, Ö.F.The wide use of GPUs for general-purpose computations as well as graphics programs makes soft errors a critical concern. Evaluating the soft error vulnerability of GPGPU programs and employing efficient fault tolerance techniques for more reliable execution become more important. Protecting only the most error-sensitive program regions maintains an acceptable reliability level by eliminating the large performance overheads due to redundant operations. Therefore, fine-grained regional soft error vulnerability analysis is crucial for the systems targeting both performance and reliability. In this work, we present a regional fault injection framework and perform a detailed error propagation analysis to evaluate the soft error vulnerability of GPGPU applications. We evaluate both intra-kernel and inter-kernel vulnerabilities for a set of programs and quantify the severity of the data corruptions by considering metrics other than SDC rates. Our experimental study demonstrates that the code regions inside GPGPU programs exhibit different characteristics in terms of soft error vulnerability and the soft errors corrupting the variables propagate into the program output in several ways. We present the potential impact of our analysis by discussing the usage scenarios after we compile our observations acquired from our empirical work. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 13On the Temperature Measurement During Ultrafast High-Temperature Sintering (uhs): Shall We Trust Metal-Shielded Thermocouples?(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2024) Biesuz, Mattia; Karacasulu, Levent; Vakifahmetoglu, Cekdar; Sglavo, Vincenzo M.Temperature measurement upon ultrafast high-temperature sintering (UHS) is a crucial task. Herein, we provide some arguments posing concerns about the use of metal-shielded thermocouples as temperature probes in UHS. The discussion is based on literature data and on some ad hoc experiments. In detail, we show at least two cases in the literature where the use of a shielded thermocouple causes a substantial underestimation of the UHS temperature. The argumentation is based on comparing the thermocouples read and the observed phase and microstructural evolution. Moreover, by means of a simple experimental design, we show that a metal shield on the thermocouple tip can substantially reduce the measured temperature. Since the metal shield is orders of magnitude more thermally conductive than the graphite felt used as heating element in UHS, it efficiently removes heat from the thermocouple tip region. As such, data acquired from shielded thermocouples must be treated with care.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 14Combination of Inclusive Top-Quark Pair Production Cross-Section Measurements Using Atlas and Cms Data at S = 7 and 8 Tev(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2023) Aad,G.; Abbott,B.; Abbott,D.C.; Abed Abud,A.; Abeling,K.; Abhayasinghe,D.K.; Jiggins,S.A combination of measurements of the inclusive top-quark pair production cross-section performed by ATLAS and CMS in proton–proton collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV at the LHC is presented. The cross-sections are obtained using top-quark pair decays with an opposite-charge electron–muon pair in the final state and with data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of about 5 fb−1 at s = 7 TeV and about 20 fb−1 at s = 8 TeV for each experiment. The combined cross-sections are determined to be 178.5 ± 4.7 pb at s = 7 TeV and 243.3−5.9+6.0 pb at s = 8 TeV with a correlation of 0.41, using a reference top-quark mass value of 172.5 GeV. The ratio of the combined cross-sections is determined to be R8/7 = 1.363 ± 0.032. The combined measured cross-sections and their ratio agree well with theory calculations using several parton distribution function (PDF) sets. The values of the top-quark pole mass (with the strong coupling fixed at 0.118) and the strong coupling (with the top-quark pole mass fixed at 172.5 GeV) are extracted from the combined results by fitting a next-to-next-to-leading-order plus next-to-next-to-leading-log QCD prediction to the measurements. Using a version of the NNPDF3.1 PDF set containing no top-quark measurements, the results obtained are mtpole=173.4−2.0+1.8 GeV and αsmZ=0.1170−0.0018+0.0021. © The Author(s) 2023.Review Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4Predictive Video Analytics in Online Courses: a Systematic Literature Review(SPRINGER, 2023) Yurum, Ozan Rasit; Taskaya-Temizel, Tuğba; Yildirim, SonerThe purpose of this study was to investigate the use of predictive video analytics in online courses in the literature. A systematic literature review was performed based on a hybrid search strategy that included both database searching and backward snowballing. In total, 77 related publications published between 2011 and April 2023 were identified. The findings revealed an increase in the number of publications on predictive video analytics since 2016. In the majority of studies, edX and Coursera platforms were used to collect learners' video interaction data. In addition, computer science was shown to be the top course domain, whilst data collection from a single course was found to be the most common. The results related to input measures showed that pause, play, backward, and forward were the top in-video interactions, whilst video transcript and subtitle were the least used. Learner performance and dropout were the primary output measures, whereas learning variables such as engagement, satisfaction, and motivation were investigated in only a few studies. Furthermore, most of the studies utilized data related to forums, navigation, and exams in addition to video data. The top algorithms used were Support Vector Machine, Random Forest, Logistic Regression, and Recurrent Neural Networks, with Random Forest and Recurrent Neural Networks being two rising algorithms in recent years. The top three evaluation metrics used were Accuracy, Area Under the Curve, and F1 Score. The findings of this study may be used to aid effective learning design and guide future research.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 8Development of Pro-Angiogenic Wound Dressings From 2-Deoxy (2ddr)-Loaded Decellularized Plant Leaves(SPRINGER, 2023) Dikici, Serkan; Çavdaroğlu, ÇağrıTraditional wound dressings are essential for the treatment of acute and superficial wounds. However, complex wounds require the use of bioactive dressings that promote healing alongside providing a safe barrier for the coverage of the wound site. The addition of growth factors is usually the primary choice to fabricate functionalized wound dressing. However, it is also the main reason for the increase in the cost of a wound dressing and may be associated with several drawbacks, such as the need for a precise drug delivery system to be able to be administered at a narrow effective dose range. 2-deoxy-D-ribose (2dDR) is a cost-effective and promising pro-angiogenic agent that indirectly stimulates vascular endothelial growth factor production to stimulate angiogenesis, and consecutively accelerate wound healing. In this study, we aimed to fabricate a novel wound dressing from 2dDR-loaded decellularized spinach leaves and evaluated its bioactivity on human endothelial cells in vitro. Our results demonstrated that a biocompatible wound dressing biomaterial could successfully be fabricated via the decellularization of spinach leaves using chemical decellularization. The success of decellularization was confirmed quantitatively and qualitatively via determination of the DNA content and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, respectively. 2dDR was then easily incorporated into the dressings via physical absorption and released from them in 5 days. The release of 2dDR-releasing decellularized spinach leaves was observed to increase the viability and metabolic activity of human endothelial cells in vitro over 7 days. In conclusion, we demonstrated the fabrication of a novel functionalized biomaterial combining decellularized plant tissues with a promising pro-angiogenic agent, and 2dDR-loaded decellularized spinach leaves appear to have great potential to be used as a bioactive wound dressing to promote angiogenesis and, consecutively, wound healing.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 11A Comprehensive Characterization of the Effect of Spatter Powder on In939 Parts Fabricated by Laser Powder Bed Fusion(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2023) Dogu, Merve Nur; Mussatto, Andre; Yalçın, Mustafa Alp; Özer, Seren; Davut, Kemal; Obeidi, Muhannad Ahmed; Kumar, AjayThis study is focused on a comprehensive characterization of virgin and spatter IN939 powders and the effects of a certain amount of spatter powder on the part quality of IN939 fabricated by the L-PBF process. A brown tint coloration formed Al2O3 oxide, pores, a 124.4% increase in the average particle size, a 10.2% decrease in the powder circularity, and a 7.5% decrease in the powder aspect ratio were observed in the spatter powder. Additionally, higher average grain size and lower nanohardness were obtained for the spatter powder. In order to understand the effect of a certain amount of spatter powder on the part quality, 10 wt% spatter powder was mixed with the virgin powder. This addition was found to decrease the flowability of the powder. Moreover, this addition decreased relative density by around 0.3% and increased surface roughness by around 80.8% in the fabricated samples (termed as V and SV). On the other hand, there was no considerable microstructural, texture, microhardness, and nanohardness difference between V and SV samples, although the spatter powder addition caused a 30.2% increase in the average grain size of SV. The overall texture for both V and SV samples exhibit (00 1)//BD.Article Citation - WoS: 19Citation - Scopus: 21Multi-Objective Evolutionary Optimization of Photovoltaic Glass for Thermal, Daylight, and Energy Consideration(Elsevier Ltd, 2023) Taşer,A.; Kazanasmaz,T.; Kundakcı Koyunbaba,B.; Durmuş Arsan,Z.The potential of fenestration systems is increased by incorporating photovoltaic technology into windows. This recently developed technology enhances the ability to generate energy from the building façade, improve the thermal and daylight performance of buildings, and visual comfort of occupants. Integrating an evolutionary optimization algorithm into this technology is one of the possible sustainable solutions to enhance building performance and minimize environmental impact. This paper uses a genetic evolutionary optimization algorithm to explore the optimum performance of photovoltaic glass in an architecture studio regarding annual energy consumption, energy generation, and daylight performance. Design variables include a window-to-wall ratio (i.e., window size and location) and amorphous-silicon thin-film solar cell transparency to generate optimum Pareto-front solutions for the case building. Optimization objectives are minimizing annual thermal (i.e., heating and cooling) loads and maximizing Spatial Daylight Autonomy. Optimized results of low-E semi-transparent amorphous-silicon photovoltaic glass applied on the façade show that the spatial daylight autonomy is increased to 82% with reduced glare risk and higher visual comfort for the occupants. Photovoltaic glass helped reduce the selected room's seasonal and annual lighting loads by up to 26.7%. Lastly, compared to non-optimized photovoltaic glass, they provide 23.2% more annual electrical energy. © 2023 International Solar Energy Society
