    Estimation Groundwater Total Recharge and Discharge Using Gis-Integrated Water Level Fluctuation Method: a Case Study From the Alasehir Alluvial Aquifer Western Anatolia, Turkey
    (Springer Verlag, 2020) Şimşek, Celalettin; Demirkesen, Ali Can; Baba, Alper; Kumanlıoğlu, Ahmet; Durukan, Seda; Aksoy, Niyazi; Tayfur, Gökmen
    The estimation of groundwater recharge is an essential process for hydrogeological study. Realistic determination approach is crucial for assessing groundwater potential in an aquifer system and estimating of groundwater levels and/or changes in dry periods. Based on these matters, we employ a GIS-integrated groundwater level fluctuation method to determine the groundwater recharge for a hydrological period in the Alasehir alluvial aquifer (W. Anatolia). The method basically takes into account both increasing and decreasing of the groundwater levels due to the recharge and discharge mechanisms in the aquifer. In this study, 16 pumping and monitoring wells were drilled with a total depth of 1300 m, and water level data loggers were installed into the monitoring wells to determine the groundwater level changes. The spatial distribution of the monthly groundwater level change map was multiplied by the aquifer storage distribution map and then the accurate water volume is calculated by using the 3-D spatial analysis. According to our evaluation in the aquifer, positive volume change of the groundwater is 187 hm(3) in a year, which is considered as a recharge value of groundwater. It is concluded that the GIS-integrated water table fluctuation method gave rise to estimate the total recharge amount of the groundwater in the Alasehir aquifer. The total groundwater recharge indicates that total inflow in the aquifer from precipitation, leakage from surface water and irrigation waters. It can be stated that the recharge estimation of groundwater in a surficial aquifer, like the Alasehir aquifer, is fairly easy using the GIS-integrated water table fluctuation method.

    The Multiwavelength Uv/Vis Detector: New Possibilities With an Added Spectral Dimension
    (Springer Verlag, 2016) Karabudak, Engin; Cölfen, Helmut
    The multiwavelength (MWL) detector is a new type of absorption detector for AUC. The commercial absorption detector of the Beckman Coulter XLA AUC can only handle a single wavelength per scan with the possibility to scan at maximum 3 wavelengths, whereas MWL-AUC can handle all the wavelengths in the UV/Vis region at one time. The result is impressive since now a full spectral dimension is added to each single scan. In this chapter, we are explaining development history, instrumentation, and future perspective of MWL-AUC.

    Incremental Itemset Mining Based on Matrix Apriori Algorithm
    (Springer Verlag, 2012) Oğuz, Damla; Ergenç, Belgin
    Databases are updated continuously with increments and re-running the frequent itemset mining algorithms with every update is inefficient. Studies addressing incremental update problem generally propose incremental itemset mining methods based on Apriori and FP-Growth algorithms. Besides inheriting the disadvantages of base algorithms, incremental itemset mining has challenges such as handling i) increments without re-running the algorithm, ii) support changes, iii) new items and iv) addition/deletions in increments. In this paper, we focus on the solution of incremental update problem by proposing the Incremental Matrix Apriori Algorithm. It scans only new transactions, allows the change of minimum support and handles new items in the increments. The base algorithm Matrix Apriori works without candidate generation, scans database only twice and brings additional advantages. Performance studies show that Incremental Matrix Apriori provides speed-up between 41% and 92% while increment size is varied between 5% and 100%.

    Function Generation Synthesis With Planar 4-Bar Linkage as a Mixed Problem of Correlation of Crank Angles and Dead-Center Design
    (Springer Verlag, 2019) Kiper, Gökhan; Erez, Melih
    The function generation synthesis of planar four-bar linkage is formulated as a mixed problem of correlation or crank angles and dead-center design. The syn-thesis is based on three desired configurations of the linkage, where the input and output joint angles are specified for two of the configurations and the coupler link is folded upon the output link for the third configuration. The formulation results in a set of nonlinear equations which can be solved analytically. The formulations are tested with numerical examples and similar mixed function generation problems are briefly discussed.

    Structural Compliance Effects on the Accuracy and Safety of a R-Cube Haptic Device
    (Springer Verlag, 2019) Carbone, Giuseppe; Acinapura, Antonio; Mundo, Domenico; Görgülü, İbrahimcan; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can
    This paper addresses the contribution of structural compliance on stiffness and safety of a R-CUBE Haptic Device. Structural compliance is determined in several poses via FEM analysis and addressed by referring to local and global indices of performance. Results are also compared with evidences from experimental tests. Comparison of numerical and experimental data allows to identify and separate the contributions to the overall compliance that are due to the structural stiffness, and other contributions such as joint clearance, pose and loading conditions.

    Control Methods for a Teleoperated Endoscope Robot
    (Springer Verlag, 2019) Işıtman, Oğulcan; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can
    In this study, control of a endoscope robot for the pituitary gland surgery is presented. This co-worker robot has non-backdrivable actuation system with external brakes on the actuators. Since it is required to move in a constrained environment, which is the inside the nostrils in this case, modifications are required for the motion controller. In order to provide safe procedure, the maximum force and torque limits are defined for the real surgical case by using human cadaver head. By considering these limits and application specific requirements, a compliance controller is proposed and experimentally tested.

    Search for Resonant and Nonresonant Higgs Boson Pair Production in the B B ¯final State in Proton-Proton Collisions at ?s=13 Tev
    (Springer Verlag, 2018) CMS Collaboration; Karapınar, Güler
    Searches for resonant and nonresonant pair-produced Higgs bosons (HH) decaying respectively into , through either W or Z bosons, and b b ¯ are presented. The analyses are based on a sample of proton-proton collisions at s=13 TeV, collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb −1 . Data and predictions from the standard model are in agreement within uncertainties. For the standard model HH hypothesis, the data exclude at 95% confidence level a product of the production cross section and branching fraction larger than 72 fb, corresponding to 79 times the standard model prediction. Constraints are placed on different scenarios considering anomalous couplings, which could affect the rate and kinematics of HH production. Upper limits at 95% confidence level are set on the production cross section of narrow-width spin-0 and spin-2 particles decaying to Higgs boson pairs, the latter produced with minimal gravity-like coupling.

    Pseudorapidity Distributions of Charged Hadrons in Proton-Lead Collisions at ?snn=5.02 and 8.16 Tev
    (Springer Verlag, 2018) CMS Collaboration; Karapınar, Güler
    The pseudorapidity distributions of charged hadrons in proton-lead collisions at nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energies sNN=5.02 and 8.16 TeV are presented. The measurements are based on data samples collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC. The number of primary charged hadrons produced in non-single-diffractive proton-lead collisions is determined in the pseudorapidity range |η lab | < 2.4. The charged-hadron multiplicity distributions are compared to the predictions from theoretical calculations and Monte Carlo event generators. In the center-of-mass pseudorapidity range |η cm | < 0.5, the average charged-hadron multiplicity densities 〈dN ch /dη cm 〉 |ηcm| < 0.5 are 17.31 ± 0.01 (stat) ± 0.59 (syst) and 20.10 ± 0.01 (stat) ± 0.85(syst) at sNN=5.02 and 8.16 TeV, respectively. The particle densities per participant nucleon are compared to similar measurements in proton-proton, proton-nucleus, and nucleus-nucleus collisions.

    Energetic and Exergetic Design Evaluations of a Building Block Based on a Hybrid Solar Envelope Method
    (Springer Verlag, 2018) Mert, Yelda; Saygın, Nicel
    To achieve sustainable development, there needs to be a focus on decreasing use of non-renewable energy sources and greenhouse gas emissions. In this regard, many studies focus on the strong relationship between energy and the environment. This study aimed to introduce the exergy analysis method into the urban planning field to find out the amount of exergy, rather than energy, that can be conserved in a building block when a solar envelope-based design is applied. In addition to the known energy-efficient design parameters, a criterion for the solar envelop method is integrated into a single method. This hybrid method includes taking into account the requirements for orientation, spacing, landscaping, and building form, as well as the building height properties as proposed in the solar envelop method. The solar envelop method depends on understanding the changing position of the sun throughout the day and year. If this dynamic behavior can be a factor in the design of an urban area, environmental friendliness, sustainability, and reduced energy consumption can comprehensively be achieved in cities.

    A Comprehensive Evaluation of Agile Maturity Self-Assessment Surveys
    (Springer Verlag, 2018) Yürüm, Ozan Raşit; Demirörs, Onur; Rabhi, Fethi
    Agile methodologies are adapted by growing number of software organizations. Agile maturity (also called agility) assessment is a way to ascertain the degree of this adoption and determine a course of action to improve agile maturity. There are a number of agile maturity assessment surveys in order to assess team or organization agility and many of them require no guidance. However, the usability of these surveys are not widely studied. The purpose of this study is to determine available agile maturity self-assessment surveys and evaluate their strengths and weaknesses for agile maturity assessment. An extensive case study is conducted to measure the sufficiency of 22 available agile maturity self-assessment surveys according to the seven expected features: comprehensiveness, fitness for purpose, discriminativeness, objectivity, conciseness, generalizability, and suitability for multiple assessment. Our case study results show that they do not satisfy all of the expected features fully but are helpful in some degree based on the purpose of usage.
