    Multi-Zone Optimisation of High-Rise Buildings Using Artificial Intelligence for Sustainable Metropolises. Part 1: Background, Methodology, Setup, and Machine Learning Results
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2021) Ekici, Berk; Kazanasmaz, Zehra Tuğçe; Turrin, Michela; Taşgetiren, M. Fatih; Sarıyıldız, I. Sevil
    Designing high-rise buildings is one of the complex tasks of architecture because it involves interdisciplinary performance aspects in the conceptual phase. The necessity for sustainable high-rise buildings has increased owing to the demand for metropolises based on population growth and urbanisation trends. Although artificial intelligence (AI) techniques support swift decision-making when addressing multiple performance aspects related to sustainable buildings, previous studies only examined single floors because modelling and optimising the entire building requires extensive computational time. However, different floor levels require various design decisions because of the performance variances between the ground and sky levels of high-rises in dense urban districts. This paper presents a multi-zone optimisation (MUZO) methodology to support decision-making for an entire high-rise building considering multiple floor levels and performance aspects. The proposed methodology includes parametric modelling and simulations of high-rise buildings, as well as machine learning and optimisation as AI methods. The specific setup focuses on the quad-grid and diagrid shading devices using two daylight metrics of LEED: spatial daylight autonomy and annual sunlight exposure. The parametric model generated samples to develop surrogate models using an artificial neural network. The results of 40 surrogate models indicated that the machine learning part of the MUZO methodology can report very high prediction accuracies for 31 models and high accuracies for six quad-grid and three diagrid models. The findings indicate that the MUZO can be an important part of designing high-rises in metropolises while predicting multiple performance aspects related to sustainable buildings during the conceptual design phase. © 2021 The Author(s)

    Effect of Different Microencapsulating Materials on the Viability of S. Thermophilus Ccm4757 Incorporated Into Dark and Milk Chocolates
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2021) Öztürk, Burcu; Elvan, Menşure; Özer, Merve; Tellioğlu Harsa, Şebnem
    This study aimed to evaluate the viability and bioaccessibility of Streptococcus thermophilus CCM4757 strain supplemented in dark and milk chocolates during storage period and pass through simulated in vitro gastro-intestinal tract. Microencapsulated and non-microencapsulated S. thermophilus CCM4757 strain added into the chocolates. Emulsion technique was used to microencapsulate cells with various biopolymers; carboxymethylcellulose, pectin, gum arabic, and cellobiose. The microencapsulated S. thermophilus with these coating materials was found to be viable higher than 9 log CFU/g up to 180 days of storage at 4 °C. Microbiological, physicochemical, and sensorial attributes of the chocolates containing microencapsulated and non-microencapsulated S. thermophilus CCM4757 were analyzed. The microencapsulated S. thermophilus showed a good survivability in milk (7.12 log CFU/g) and dark (6.90 log CFU/g) chocolate samples during 180-day storage at 4 °C. Supplementation of S. thermophilus did not affect significantly (P > 0.05) the sensory attributes of the chocolates. The results showed that S. thermophilus CCM4757 exhibited good cell survivability higher than 85% in chocolates under simulated gastro-intestinal fluids. S. thermophilus supplementation into the chocolate protected the viability of cells and did not affect the sensorial characteristics and moisture content of chocolates. The present study demonstrated that the dark and milk chocolates could be used as an important matrix to carry probiotics. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd

    Development of a Personalized Thermal Comfort Driven Controller for Hvac Systems
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2021) Turhan, Cihan; Simani, Silvio; Gökçen Akkurt, Gülden
    Increasing thermal comfort and reducing energy consumption are two main objectives of advanced HVAC control systems. In this study, a thermal comfort driven control (PTC-DC) algorithm was developed to improve HVAC control systems with no need of retrofitting HVAC system components. A case building located in Izmir Institute of Technology Campus-Izmir-Turkey was selected to test the developed system. First, wireless sensors were installed to the building and a mobile application was developed to monitor/collect temperature, relative humidity and thermal comfort data of an occupant. Then, the PTC-DC algorithm was developed to meet the highest occupant thermal comfort as well as saving energy. The prototypes of the controller were tested on the case building from July 3rd, 2017 to November 1st, 2018 and compared with a conventional PID controller. The results showed that the developed control algorithm and conventional controller satisfy neutral thermal comfort for 92 % and 6 % of total measurement days, respectively. From energy consumption point of view, the PTC-DC decreased energy consumption by 13.2 % compared to the conventional controller. Consequently, the PTC-DC differs from other works in the literature that the prototype of PTC-DC can be easily deployed in real environments. Moreover, the PTC-DC is low-cost and user-friendly.

    Canopy-To Liquid Cooling for the Thermal Management of Lithium-Ion Batteries, a Constructal Approach
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2022) Güngör, Şahin; Çetkin, Erdal; Lorente, Sylvie
    With the growing interest on electric vehicles comes the question of the thermal management of their battery pack. In this work, we propose a thermally efficient solution consisting in inserting between the cells a liquid cooling system based on constructal canopy-to-canopy architectures. In such systems, the cooling fluid is driven from a trunk channel to perpendicular branches that make the tree canopy. An opposite tree collects the liquid in such a way that the two trees match canopy-to-canopy. The configuration of the cooling solution is predicted following the constructal methodology, leading to the choice of the hydraulic diameter ratios. We show that such configurations allow extracting most of the non-uniformly generated heat by the battery cell during the discharging phase, while using a small mass flow rate.

    Measurement of the T(t)over-Bar Production Cross Section in Pp Collisions at Root S=7 Tev With Lepton Plus Jets Final States
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2013) Karapınar, Güler
    A measurement of the a production cross section in pp collisions at root s = 7 TeV is presented. The results are based on data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.3 fb(-1) collected by the CMS detector at the LHC. Selected events are required to have one isolated, high transverse momentum electron or muon, large missing transverse energy, and hadronic jets, at least one of which must be consistent with having originated from a b quark. The measured cross section is 158.1 +/- 2.1 (stat.) +/- 10.2 (syst.) +/- 3.5 (lum.) pb, in agreement with standard model predictions. (C) 2013 CERN. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Search for Heavy Narrow Dilepton Resonances in Pp Collisions at Root S=7 Tev and Root S=8 Tev
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2013) Karapınar, Güler
    An updated search for heavy narrow resonances decaying to muon or electron pairs using the CMS detector is presented. Data samples from pp collisions at root s = 7 TeV and 8 TeV at the LHC, with integrated luminosities of up to 5.3 and 4.1 fb(-1), respectively, are combined. No evidence for a heavy narrow resonance is observed. The analysis of the combined data sets excludes, at 95% confidence level, a Sequential Standard Model Z '(SSM) resonance lighter than 2590 GeV, a superstring-inspired Z '(psi) lighter than 2260 GeV, and Kaluza-Klein gravitons lighter than 2390 (2030) GeV, assuming that the coupling parameter k/(M) over bar (Pl) is 0.10 (0.05). These are the most stringent limits to date. (C) 2013 CERN. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Search for Excited Leptons in Pp Collisions at Root S=7 Tev
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2013) Karapınar, Güler
    Results are presented of a search for compositeness in electrons and muons using a data sample of pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy root s = 7 TeV collected with the CMS detector at the LHC and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.0 fb(-1). Excited leptons (l*) are assumed to be produced via contact interactions in conjunction with a standard model lepton and to decay via l* -> l gamma, yielding a final state with two energetic leptons and a photon. The number of events observed in data is consistent with that expected from the standard model. The 95% confidence upper limits for the cross section for the production and decay of excited electrons (muons), with masses ranging from 0.6 to 2 TeV, are 1.48 to 1.24 fb (1.31 to 1.11 fb). Excited leptons with masses below 1.9 TeV are excluded for the case where the contact interaction scale equals the excited lepton mass. The limits on the cross sections are the most stringent ones published to date. (c) 2013 CERN. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Measurement of the W+w- and Zz Production Cross Sections in Pp Collisions at Root S=8 Tev
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2013) Karapınar, Güler
    The W+W- and ZZ production cross sections are measured in proton-proton collisions at root s = 8 TeV with the CMS experiment at the LHC in data samples corresponding to an integrated luminosity of up to 5.3 fb(-1). The measurements are performed in the leptonic decay modes W+W- -> l'vl '' v and ZZ -> 2l2l', where l = e, mu and l'(l '') = e, mu, tau. The measured cross sections sigma (pp -> W+W-) =, 69.9 +/- 2.8 (stat.) +/- 5.6 (syst.) 3.1 +/- (lum.) pb and sigma (pp -> ZZ) = 8.4 +/- 1.0 (stat) +/- 0.7 (syst) +/- 0.4 (lum.) pb, for both Z bosons produced in the mass region 60 < m(Z) < 120 GeV, are consistent with standard model predictions. These are the first measurements of the diboson production cross sections at root s = 8 TeV. (C) 2013 CERN. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Search for Anomalous Production of Highly Boosted Z Bosons Decaying To Mu(+)mu(-) in Proton-Proton Collisions at Root S=7 Tev
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2013) Karapınar, Güler
    Results are reported from a search for the anomalous production of highly boosted Z bosons with large transverse momentum and decaying to mu(+)mu(-). Such Z bosons may be produced in the decays of new heavy particles. The search uses pp collision data at root s = 7 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.0 fb(-1) recorded with the CMS detector. The shape of the observed transverse momentum distribution of Z bosons is consistent with standard model expectations. Constraints are obtained on models predicting the production of excited quarks decaying via electroweak processes. Assuming a compositeness scale that is equal to the excited quark mass as well as transition coupling strengths between Z bosons and excited quarks that are equal to standard model couplings to quarks, masses of excited quarks below 1.94 TeV are excluded at the 95% confidence level. For excited quark production via a novel contact interaction, masses below 2.22 TeV are excluded, even if the excited quarks do not couple to gluons. (C) 2013 CERN. Published by Elsevier B.V.

    Event Shapes and Azimuthal Correlations in Z Plus Jets Events in Pp Collisions at Root S=7 Tev
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2013) Karapınar, Güler
    Measurements of event shapes and azimuthal correlations are presented for events where a Z boson is produced in association with jets in proton-proton collisions. The data collected with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC at root s = 7 TeV correspond to an integrated luminosity of 5.0 fb(-1). The analysis provides a test of predictions from perturbative QCD for a process that represents a substantial background to many physics channels. Results are presented as a function of jet multiplicity, for inclusive Z boson production and for Z bosons with transverse momenta greater than 150 GeV, and compared to predictions from Monte Carlo event generators that include leading-order multiparton matrix-element (with up to four hard partons in the final state) and next-to-leading-order simulations of Z + 1-jet events. The experimental results are corrected for detector effects, and can be compared directly with other QCD models. (c) 2013 CERN. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
