Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1Daylight Performance and Lighting Energy Savings of Amorphous and Crystalline Silicon Solar Cells in an Architecture Studio(IEEE, 2023) Taşer, Aybüke; Kazanasmaz, Zehra TuğçeSemi-transparent photovoltaic (PV) glass increased its popularity due to its energy and environmental advantages, which can generate electricity on-site and utilize natural daylight. They use thin-film solar cells to allow daylight to enter space and generate electrical energy. Crystalline and amorphous silicon (a-Si) solar cells are the most prominent in literature and industry due to their high efficiency and sufficient transparency. This study aims to assess the daylight and lighting energy-saving potential of thin-film crystalline and a-Si photovoltaic glass in an architecture studio in Izmir, Turkey. The simulation engine applied two types of solar cells on existing windows to evaluate the advantage of such glass for daylight performance and lighting energy consumption. Spatial Daylight Autonomy (sDA), a climate-based annual daylight performance metric, evaluates the daylight performance of the studio. Research findings note that such solar cells enhance the visual comfort of occupants and the daylight performance of the studio. In addition, crystalline silicon solar cells can cover the studio's whole lighting loads in the summer and fall seasons and balance them up to 66% and 23% in the spring and winter seasons, respectively. These have higher transmittance and peak power, thus; resulting in higher energy and daylight performance. © 2023 IEEE.Article Eğitim yapılarında asansör trafik analizi yöntemlerinin karşılaştırılmasına yönelik bir araştırma(Gazi Üniversitesi, 2023) Deligöz, Dostcan; Harputlugil, TimuçinPurpose: Regarding elevator design in educational buildings; It is aimed to investigate the legal framework, to integrate dynamic simulation programs to design process, to compare traditional and dynamic simulation methods, to evaluate the adequacy of elevator features specified in the legislation and to determine the optimum scenarios according to the minimum requirements.Theory and Methods: Based on the findings of the literature review, which examines the issue of elevator traffic analysis together with the legislation and regulations, the carrying capacities of the elevators in the educational buildings designed by the Ministry of National Education (MNE) are tested. The stability of the system is tested by analyzing the conditions where only the disabled, disabled and building workers can be used together and all building users can use the elevators with the dynamic simulation method (with Elevate Software). The limits of the system are determined based on the waiting times during the peak usage periods. The findings of the study are evaluated according to the waiting times determined by CIBSE Guide D and the Chamber of Mechanical Engineers followed by the discussion of the outcomes.Results: The issue of elevator design has been overlooked in educational buildings, and a comprehensive elevator traffic analysis method has not been defined. For the effective use of all occupants, elevator design should be handled comprehensively with considering potentials of dynamic simulation method.Conclusion: According to the findings of the study, it is noted that the number and capacity of elevators in the legislation for educational buildings are determined only for minimum conditions and for disabled users. In addition, the legislation (considering calculation methodology) is not specific for educational buildings but related with buildings in general with public use. Considering the occupants, and their profiles of the educational buildings, a more comprehensive traffic analysis with the dynamic simulation method may enable the elevators to be designed and to be used more efficiently.Book Review Citation - WoS: 1Randa Aboubakr, Sarah Jurkiewicz, Hicham Ait-Mansour, and Ulrike Freitag, Eds. Spaces of Participation: Dynamics of Social and Political Change in the Arab World (cairo, New York: the American University of Cairo Press, 2021). Pp. 302, 25 B&w Illus. $78.67 Hardcover. Isbn: 101617979899.(Cambridge University Press, 2021) Kılınç, KıvançWhere do people meet, form relations of trust, and begin debating social and politicalissues? Where do social movements start? In this fascinating collection, scholars andactivists from a wealth of disciplinary backgrounds, including sociology, anthropology,history, and political science, take a fresh look at these questions and the factorsleading to political and social change in the Arab world from a spatial perspective.Based on original field work in Egypt, Kuwait, Morocco, and Palestine, Spaces of Participation connects and reconnects social, cultural, and political participation withurban space. It explores timely themes such as formal and informal spaces of participation, alternative spaces of cultural production, space reclamation, and culturalactivism, and the reconfiguring of space through different types of contestation. Italso covers a range of spaces that include sports clubs, arts centers, and sites of protest and resistance, as well as virtual spaces such as social media platforms, in theprocess of examining the relationships and tensions between physical and virtualspace.Article Aydınlatma Kontrol Sistemlerinin Kullanıcı Memnuniyeti Üzerindeki Etkisine Eleştirel Bir Bakış(Manisa Celâl Bayar Üniversitesi, 2016) Cılasun Kunduracı, Arzu; Kazanasmaz, Zehra TuğçeOtomatik aydınlatma kontrol sistemleri, yapay aydınlatma tüketimini düşürme amacı ile günümüzde sıklıkla kullanılmaktadır. Farklı çeşitleri ile kullanımı giderek yaygınlaşan otomatik aydınlatma kontrol sistemleri, teknolojinin ve bina enerji yönetim sistemlerinin gelişmesi ile enerji tasarrufunu kullanıcı memnuniyetinden ödün vermeden sağlamayı hedeflemektedir. Bu teknolojik uygulamaların enerji açısından verimliliği pek çok araştırma ile ortaya çıkarılmış, alan çalışmalarıyla elde edilen verilerle ve örneklerle açıklanmıştır. Ancak, söz konusu sistemlerin enerji tüketimine sağladığı katkının dışında kullanıcı memnuniyeti ile kurduğu ilişki üzerinde az durulmuş bir konudur. Halbuki yapılar, kullanıcıları için tasarlanıp uygulanır. Bu sebeple, öncelikli hedeflerden biri kullanıcı memnuniyetini sağlamaktır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda, literatürdeki aydınlatma kontrol sistemlerini inceleyen çalışmaların kullanıcı memnuniyeti açısından yaptığı değerlendirmeler ve söz konusu sistemlerin kullanıcı ile kurduğu ilişkiler incelenecektir. Bu incelemede, çeşitli aydınlatma kontrol sistemi türleri (varlık, günışığı ve zaman ayarlı kontrol sistemleri) ele alınıp, kullanıcı memnuniyeti açısından literatürde yer alan çalışmalar üzerinden tartışılmıştır.Article Citation - WoS: 3Geometric and Kinematic Analysis of Deployable Doubly Ruled Hyperboloids(Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi, 2017) Maden, Feray; Korkmaz, KorayThis paper aims to develop deployable doubly ruled hyperboloid surfaces that can be used in architectural applications. First, the study systematically analyzes the geometric principles of hyperboloids generated by the ruled surface generation method and examines the morphology to generate different types of hyperboloids. Then, a method is introduced to construct deployable doubly ruled hyperboloid surfaces. The study demonstrates that deployment behavior of the hyperboloid is directly related to joint types used at the intersection points of the bars. Based on kinematic analysis, the study establishes that deployable hyperboloids with a single degree of freedom can be constructed only by revolute and spherical joints. Finally, various hyperboloids having different number of intersections are constructed according to the proposed joint types and their deployment capabilities are discussed.
