Article A Phenomenological Kinetic Flotation Model: Intrinsic Floatability Profiling for Batch and Continuous Flotation Systems(Springer Heidelberg, 2026) Polat, Mehmet; Guzel, Veli; Kobas, Muammer; Polat, HurriyetThis study presents a mechanistic flotation kinetics model that unifies the description of mineral particle floatability in both batch and continuous systems. Building on a physically explicit interpretation of bubble-particle interactions, the model introduces the concept of intrinsic floatability, \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$${\upphi }_{\text{P},\text{ij}}<^>{\text{s}}$$\end{document}, defined as the size-and composition-dependent probability that a particle within a bubble's sweep volume reports to the froth. A central feature of the framework is that \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$${\upphi }_{\text{P},\text{ij}}<^>{\text{s}}$$\end{document} is decoupled from system-level rate-determining factors, such as bubble-particle encounter frequency, transport limits, and bubble surface crowding-that otherwise confound attempts to extract floatability distributions from kinetic data. This separation is achieved through three explicit, time-dependent parameters: the encounter rate kappa(t), the limiting flotation rate mu(t), and the bubble saturation factor chi(t). Together, these parameters isolate intrinsic particle behavior from external constraints. The model naturally reduces to the classical first-order rate law in dilute pulps, while in concentrated suspensions it predicts systematic deviations, approaching zero-order kinetics as bubble surfaces saturate. Importantly, the same formulation applies seamlessly to batch tests and multi-stage continuous circuits, enabling a consistent theoretical framework across scales and ore types. Requiring only standard flotation data and known system parameters, the model is practical for both laboratory coal flotation studies and industrial non-coal applications. Validation using batch coal data and continuous plant-scale copper flotation results demonstrates its robustness and broad relevance.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 11Renewable-Based Treatment Solution of Reactive Blue 21 Dye on Fly Ash as Low-Cost and Sustainable Adsorbent(Elsevier, 2024) Kobya, Mehmet; Dolaz, Mustafa; Goren, Aysegul YagmurThis study investigated the removal of Reactive Blue 21 (RB 21) dye from aqueous solutions by adsorption, evaluating the waste fly ash (FA). The effects of the parameters, such as initial dye concentration (100-750 mg/ L), initial pH (2.0-8.0), adsorbent dose (1.0-4.0 g/L), and temperature (298-323 K) on the adsorption process were investigated. The optimum initial pH value was 2.0 for the highest RB21 dye removal (75.2 mg/g). At optimized conditions (pH 2.0, an adsorbent dosage of 1.0 g/L, a dye concentration of 750 mg/L, and an equilibrium time of 72 h), the highest adsorption capacity was found to be 105.2 mg/g. Moreover, the results of the kinetic studies fitted the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Equilibrium data were best represented by the Langmuir isotherm model, with a maximum monolayer adsorption capacity of 103.41 mg/g at 323 K. Delta G0ads values were negative and varied from 11.64 to 9.50 kJ/mol in the temperature range of 298-323 K, the values of enthalpy (Delta Ho ads) and entropy (Delta So ads) of thermodynamics parameters were calculated as 37.62 kJ/mol and 86.67 J/mol K, respectively, indicating that this process was endothermic. Furthermore, the adsorbent costs for powdered activated carbon (PAC) and FA to remove 1 kg of RB 21 dye from aqueous solutions are calculated as 2.52 U.S. $ and 0.34 U.S. $, respectively. It is seen that the cost of FA is approximately 7.4 times lower than PAC. The results showed that FA, a low-cost industrial waste, was promising for the adsorption of RB 21 from aqueous solutions.Data Paper Citation - WoS: 15Citation - Scopus: 20Database Covering the Prayer Movements Which Were Not Available Previously(Nature Publishing Group, 2023) Mihçin, Şenay; Şahin, Ahmet Mert; Yılmaz, Mehmet; Alpkaya, Alican Tuncay; Tuna, Merve; Akdeniz, Sevinç; Can, Nuray Korkmaz; Tosun, Aliye; Şahin, SerapLower body implants are designed according to the boundary conditions of gait data and tested against. However, due to diversity in cultural backgrounds, religious rituals might cause different ranges of motion and different loading patterns. Especially in the Eastern part of the world, diverse Activities of Daily Living (ADL) consist of salat, yoga rituals, and different style sitting postures. A database covering these diverse activities of the Eastern world is non-existent. This study focuses on data collection protocol and the creation of an online database of previously excluded ADL activities, targeting 200 healthy subjects via Qualisys and IMU motion capture systems, and force plates, from West and Middle East Asian populations with a special focus on the lower body joints. The current version of the database covers 50 volunteers for 13 different activities. The tasks are defined and listed in a table to create a database to search based on age, gender, BMI, type of activity, and motion capture system. The collected data is to be used for designing implants to allow these sorts of activities to be performed.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Effect of Oxidation on Mechanical Properties of Copper Nanowire: a Reaxff (reactive Force Field) Molecular Dynamics Study(Aip Publishing, 2023) Aral, Gürcan; Islam, Md MahbubulNanostructures with high surface area to volume ratio, such as oxidized and coated Cu nanowires (NWs), exhibit unique mechanical properties due to their size and surface effects. Understanding the complex oxidation process of Cu NWs at nanoscale and quantifying its resulting effects on mechanical behavior and properties are significantly essential for effective usage of Cu NW devices in a wide range of applications in nanoelectronics. Here, we perform molecular dynamics simulations using ReaxFF (reactive force field) to investigate the oxidation process and mechanisms of [001]-oriented cylindrical Cu NWs and its contribution on the mechanical deformation behavior and material properties as a function of NW sizes. The relatively thin oxide CuxOy layer is formed on the surface of Cu NWs in an O-2 environment, creating a core/shell (Cu/CuxOy) NW structure that played a key role in governing the overall tensile mechanical deformation behavior and properties of Cu NW. The formation of oxide layer effects, including the resulting interface and defects, leads to a reduction in the initial dislocation nucleation barrier, which facilitates the onset of plasticity and stress relaxation, ultimately resulting in a negative impact on the tensile strength, Young's modulus, yield stress and strain, and flow stress when compared to pristine counterparts. It is worth noting that the tensile mechanical response and properties of the Cu NWs are highly dependent on the pre-existing oxide shell layer associated with the size of NW, determining the overall mechanical performance and properties of Cu NWs.
