ABSTRACTIn recent years, the utilization of nanotechnology rapidly developed for the wide range of sciences. Nanomaterials shows unique properties and ZnO nanostructures are the most suitable structures for biosensor applications due to their high surface area and high electrochemical activity. In this project first, we have coated zinc film on to Glass/ITO surface by electrochemical deposition method. Then we have transformed the obtained zinc film to nanostructured ZnO by electrochemical anodization method. At the end, we have tried to modify the ZnO nanostructured surface with chitosan for ...Daha fazlası
The skeletal system undertakes many tasks such as the movement of the body, mineral storage, and protection of soft tissues. Damage to this structure affects human life negatively. Fractures that occur in the human body is damage to mainly to the bone structure and associated surrounding tissues. Therefore, it is necessary to understand how the fractures are formed and the fracture mechanism. Furthermore, the mechanism of fracture is complicated and worthy of investigation. However, the examination of the bone is difficult because it is a structure covered with tissues like veins and muscles. ...Daha fazlası
ABSTRACTIn this thesis, the flow rate of air coolers used in low pressure casting method is examined. Low pressure die casting (LPDC) method is used for many types of products. Light alloy wheels, motor housings and pistons are examples of these products. Air-cooling is used to provide directional solidification to avoid casting defects on the casting part. In this study, the flow rate of air-cooling is calculated by using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods. After the numerical calculations were confirmed by experimental methods, the affect of the variables on the cooling system flow r ...Daha fazlası
ABSTRACTAntibacterial photodynamic therapy is a treatment that occurs in the presence of light, photosensitizer and oxygen. The photosensitizer reacts with the molecular oxygen in the environment when it is stimulated by light at the appropriate wavelength, causing reactive oxygen species at the end. Reactive oxygen species show high cytotoxic effects on cells and cause necrosis or apoptosis. In recent years, the resistance of bacteria to antibiotics has caused infection treatments to become more difficult. This situation has become a threat to human and animal health. Therefore, antibacterial ...Daha fazlası
ABSTRACTIn this thesis, a new design of the modular robot manipulator and its control with Robot Operating System is presented. The modules are designed to have an adjustable twist angle, which enables to create different robot manipulator configurations. Kinematic synthesis on the gripper module is conducted and structural parameters of the gripper is determined. Axis sets on the modules are determined by Denavit-Hartenberg method. Inverse and forward kinematic analysis and singularity analysis are performed. Numerical inverse kinematic solver is proposed for modular robot manipulators with m ...Daha fazlası
ABSTRACTCarbonaceous materials have attracted a tremendous amount of attention during the last decades due to their outstanding properties for a variety of applications. Among them, carbon fibers are state of the art materials with excellent physical, mechanical, electrical, thermal and chemical properties. Especially the thermal and electrical properties of carbon fibers combined with other prominent characteristics enable them to be employed as an effective heating element. Regarding to this motivation, in this study, it is mainly aimed to fabricate carbon fiber based heating elements and to ...Daha fazlası
ABSTRACTNanofluids are produced by the addition of nano-sized particles to the base fluid in order to increase the thermal conductivity of heat transfer fluids. Preparation of stable nanofluids with high thermal conductivity is a very complex process and their usage in heat transfer applications are related to many important parameters from the stability of nanofluids to their viscosity. Optimization of these parameters is essential for the practical use of nanofluids. The objectives of this study are to successfully preparecarbon-based nanofluids while investigating the stability mechanisms a ...Daha fazlası
ABSTRACTRecent research shows that the vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs) can provide up to 6 - 9 times more power generation in the same footprint area when they are sited in proper configurations in contrast to horizontal-axis wind turbines (HAWT). In order to site wind turbines in a field, it is necessary to do a wind resource assessment (WRA). This assessment provide important inputs for the placement, sizing and design detailing of the wind farm. In addition to the correct determination of the site, it is also critical to place the wind turbines in the most efficient way. When the necess ...Daha fazlası
ABSTRACTUrban regeneration projects studied extensively in the world and Europe is a new subject in Turkey. When we look at the examples in the world, their main focus has always been human-oriented. These types of projects should take into account the city's authentic memory and texture, depending primarily on the physical, social, cultural and economic structure. The theme of the project should be determined considering local, social, cultural and physical principles. Ecological values should be decisive in the project's outset, course and outcome. Regeneration projects can actually be consi ...Daha fazlası
ABSTRACTIn this study, a detailed literature study has been conducted about radio frequency energy harvesting systems, and two different RF energy harvesting system designs are presented operated two different bands. RF energy harvesting systems have been in our lives for more than fifty years. The number of studies carried out on these systems has increased, especially to meet the power requirements of low power consumption devices whose usage is growing with the developing technology in recent years. In the literature, RF energy harvesting systems have been generally designed to operate in t ...Daha fazlası
