Graphene, a one-atom-thick two-dimensional material, has drawn great interest for many electronic and optoelectronic applications due to its extraordinary properties. The properties of the graphene can be modified with different chemical methods and introduced new properties, which widens its potential for applications. The non-covalent modification of graphene is one of the basic techniques for modifying the electrical properties of graphene without disrupting the structure.
In this thesis, the high-quality graphene has been synthesized and electrical properties of graphene have been tuned b ...Daha fazlası
Medical imaging provides images of structures of the body that is not visible to
human eye. It is a basic need that determines the irregularities, abnormalities, parts
with different densities, spaces and foreign objects that is not supposed to be in the
body. It has major importance for fast and correct diagnose. Imaging is frequently
used for periodic scans for early diagnostic and follow up scans of treated patients.
No matter how important it is, accessibility of the imaging devices especially digital
imaging systems that provides real time images is extremely limited. There are very ...Daha fazlası
The use of internet and social media has increasing with the developing new
technologies and large number of people have actively using of the internet. At the
same time the development of mobile technologies and the widespread usage of the
mobile devices that can be shown as the reason for that. In this way, social media has
become a virtual environment in which people interact with each other.
Some of social media platforms such as Twitter have become very popular and most
of people share some information about themselves on these platforms. They also

This thesis focuses on a Multileaf Collimator design that can shape the beam contour to fit the shape of target geometry and its design improvements. Main purpose of this design is lowering the number of leaves on the multileaf collimator and making the system easier to be controlled. As the Collimator devices undertake the most important point of the beam shaping procedure, ease of control and precision of collimator devices are the major points of operation.
As the radiation therapy is one of the most complex and vital medical operations, this thesis started with the deep literature survey ...Daha fazlası
Motor imagery (MI) task classification is highly prevalent in Electroencephalography
(EEG)-based Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) research area. Extremity movement task
classification and finger movement classification studies are presented in this thesis.
In extremity movement classification, binary-class (right hand and left hand) and
multi-class (right hand, left hand, right hand, and left hand) classifications are
performed using 4 different feature extraction approaches and statistically
significance-based feature selection (the independent t-test, one-way ANOVA test).
Firstly, time- ...Daha fazlası
Laminate composites can be used quite naturally in automotive, marine, aviation and
other engineering branches. Determination of buckling load capacity under in-plane composite
loads of composite plates is very important for the design of composite structures. In this thesis,
Differential Evolution (DE) and Simulated Annealing (SA) are utilized for optimal stacking
sequence of a laminated composite plate, which is simply supported on four edges and is
subjected to biaxial in-plane compressive loads. The optimization problem parameters are
defined as
(i) Objective function: critical buck ...Daha fazlası
Garment and textile production industry is one of the main sectors of our country.
This sector is a major driving force in our developing economy. According to 2014
data, Turkey is the third country on textile export among the European countries.
Besides, Turkey is the world's sixth largest garment exporter. With such a huge
production power, in Turkey’s textile sector, waste and/or residual textile materials
are composed depends on the large scale production, as in most of the other
production sectors. Such waste materials in textile industry are the left materials from
production stag ...Daha fazlası
Cellulose is the most abundant organic polymer on earth. It is naturally regenerated by forests and cotton plantations with a speed of 10 billion metric tons per year regularly. Not only its natural reproduction makes it ecologically beneficial but also its biological degradability makes cellulose an ‘eco-friendly material’. Applications of cellulose is limited due to its insolubility in water. Contrarily, its water-soluble derivatives, especially cellulose ethers, are found in nearly all the products we are using in our daily life.
Although cellulose is the main raw material for producing ce ...Daha fazlası
Significant development of radar systems after World War II has led to studying the interaction between electromagnetic waves at radar frequencies and different materials. One perspective of these studies is to ascertain ways of decreasing reflected waves. However, the applications have not been limited only to defense applications but also to different fields where human beings are exposed to electromagnetic waves to avoid potential health effects due to exposure to electromagnetic waves. Since the discovery of radar systems, many studies have focused on electromagnetic radiation and absorbin ...Daha fazlası
In this study, clay based brick with micro pores was developed for thermal insulation
in the building materials. Turkey produces about 70% of the world hazelnut
production. The aim of this thesis is to reduce the thermal conductivity coefficient by
adding organic waste (hazelnut shell) into clay mixture to form porosity during firing
of clay bricks. Moreover, it is to maintain the similar mechanical properties by
adding inorganic waste (red mud) into clay mixture. The development of a highly
porous bricks with applicable mechanical strength will contribute to save energy in
the building ...Daha fazlası

Duplex steels are materials that contain ferrite and austenite phases in their structure, have high resistance to corrosion, and also show improved mechanical values. While the austenite in its structure provides general corrosion resistance and ductility, ferrite provides resistance to stress corrosion cracking and mechanical strength. Duplex steels have widespread use, especially in shipping and petrochemistry. The current production method of duplex steels, which are in demand with a wide usage area, is generally argon oxygen decarburization furnaces (AOD). In addition to the production met ...Daha fazlası
