    An Experimental and Comparative Study of the Self-Loosening of Bolted-Joints Under Cyclic Transverse Loading
    (Sakarya University, 2021) İnce, U.; Güden, M.
    The capabilities of analytic models in predicting the experimental critical displacements of the self-loosening of bolted-joints were investigated experimentally and numerically. The experimental loosening rates were determined in a Junker test bench at a constant transverse displacement amplitude (0.45 mm) and under varying initial clamp force and clamp length and controlled bearing and thread friction coefficients. The analytic critical displacements were then calculated using experimental parameters. In addition, a three-dimensional accompanying finite element (FE) model was developed in order to calculate the ratio of spring constants engaging the thread to spring. The results showed relatively low capabilities of present analytic model in the prediction of the critical displacements of the self-loosening of bolted-joints. The efforts to modify the nut reaction moment and the inclination compliance of bolt head portion in the investigated equations however resulted moderate increase in the appropriate predictions. On the other side, the use of the reaction moment determined by FE model increased the appropriate prediction from 58.3 to 73.4%. The accuracy of the equations was further increased by the use of an appropriate kw value, but the increase in this case was only ~4%. © 2021, Sakarya University. All rights reserved.

    Oluklu alüminyum sandviç panellerde kor yüksekliğinin enerji sönümleme kapasitesine olan etkisi
    (Gazi Üniversitesi, 2020) Kılıçaslan, Cenk; Güden, Mustafa
    In this study, energy absorbing capacity of brazed and polyurethane adhesively bonded corrugated aluminum sandwich panels were investigated. In sandwich panels, Al 1050 H14 trapezoidal zig-zag corrugated cores and face and interlayer sheets were used. Each sandwich panel has core orientation of 0 degrees/0 degrees or 0 degrees/90 degrees. The cores used in these panels were smaller, core height is about 3 mm, in contrast to conventional sandwich cores. Impact tests were conducted at 3 and 6 m/s with spherical projectors. Adhesively bonded sandwich panels were also tested at 6 m/s with flat and conical projectors. Numerical models were prepared in LSDYNA to investigated the deformation behavior of cores. Panels tested with flat and conical projectors experienced complete perforation and absorbed more energy at configuration of 0 degrees/0 degrees core orientation. However, panels tested with spherical projectors were not perforated and they absorbed more energy at configuration of 0 degrees/90 degrees core orientation. Energy absorbing capacity of the panels were also compared to the panels having 9 mm height corrugated cores. The results showed that effective collapsing length was seen to increase due to increase in core height and impact energy distributed the whole panel surface more homogenous manner.

    Photocatalytic Antimicrobial Effect of Tio2 Anatase Thin-Film–coated Orthodontic Arch Wires on 3 Oral Pathogens
    (TUBITAK, 2014) Özyıldız, Figen; Uzel, Ataç; Hazar, Ayşe Serpil; Güden, Mustafa; Ölmez, Sultan; Aras, Işıl; Karaboz, İsmail
    The aim of this study was to introduce antimicrobial activity to stainless steel orthodontic arch wires by coating them with TiO2 in anatase form. Stainless steel (0.016 × 0.022 inch), D-rect (0.016 × 0.022 inch), and multistranded hammered retainer wires (0.014 × 0.018 inch) were coated with TiO2 anatase by the sol-gel dip coating method. The wires were assessed for their photocatalytic antimicrobial activity against Streptococcus mutans, Candida albicans, and Enterococcus faecalis. After illumination under UVA (315– 400 nm) at 1.0 mW/cm2 for 1 h, the reduction efficiencies of the anatase-coated arch wires were calculated by using colony-forming unit counts. All anatase-coated arch wires showed remarkable inhibitor effects against the test microorganisms under UVA. The most efficient wire on S. mutans was the stainless steel wire, with a 99.99% reduction in growth, but multistranded hammered retainer wire was the most active against both C. albicans and E. faecalis, with 98.0% and 91.68% reduction rates, respectively. TiO2-coated arch wires exposed to UVA illumination showed significant antimicrobial activity when compared with uncoated samples and coated, but not UVA-exposed, samples. Our results suggest that the antimicrobial effect of TiO2-coated arch wires in long-lasting orthodontic treatments would be beneficial for the prophylaxis of caries.

    Morphological and Molecular Identification of Pennate Diatoms Isolated From Urla, Izmir, Coast of the Aegean Sea
    (TUBITAK, 2013) Kesici, Kutsal; Tüney, İnci; Sukatar, Atakan; Zeren, Doğuş; Güden, Mustafa
    Diatoms represent an important class of aquatic phototrophs. They are not only one of the major contributors to global carbon fixation, but also play a key role in the biogeochemical cycling of silica. Molecular identification methods based on conserved DNA sequences, such as ITS (Internal Transcribed Spacer) have revolutionized our knowledge and understanding of conventional taxonomy. In this study, we aimed to compare the conventional identification methods with molecular identification methods. To do so, we isolated four diatom samples from Coast of Urla and characterized them using light microscopy (LM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) according to morphological features. Then, we amplified ITS regions using conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR), sequenced the PCR products and analyzed the sequences using bioinformatic tools. Bioinformatic analysis indicated that the isolated species had high sequence similarity to Pseudo-nitzschia sp., Achnanthes sp., Amphora sp. and Cylindrotheca sp. We believe that molecular identification methods enable rapid and more reliable identification of diatom species and are crucial for monitoring harmful algal blooms.
