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
ABSTRACTCities that have a history as a capital or an important trade center, has its own complex structure. If the historical city center was functionalized as a commercial district, it has been experienced social, cultural, environmental and economical subjects throughout centuries. This situation creates strong impacts as newly created contexts likewise political, public and architectural. These contexts generally not thought together, but they should be analyzed and investigated together for a sustainable future for the historical city centers. As a historical city center, Kemeralti-Izmir ...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
ABSTRACTIt is not possible to produce steel without inclusions as the process for steel production requires. Based on this fact, the researches on clean steel are concentrated on the reduction of inclusions and transformation of inclusions into harmless state by modification. The definition of steel cleanness is related to final product application. Non-metallic inclusion, in the liquid steel, causing many problems and production lost in steel production process and final application. Aluminum killed steels mostly contain Al2O3 and MnS inclusions. Al2O3 inclusions are formed during de-oxidatio ...Daha fazlası
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
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
ABSTRACTIn this thesis, an Arduino extension board (shield) is designed to take theelectrocardiography (ECG) signals. Firstly, the positive and negative terminals of an ECG signal are selected to determine which input pins are connected to these terminals. User can select one of eight possible inputs for each terminal, which means the user can apply one of the possible 64 channel combinations to inputs of the design. Then a dedicated instrumental amplifier amplifies the signal. The voltagegain of the amplifier can be selectable among available options. The amplified ECG signal is filtered in a ...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
ABSTRACTThanks to the technological advances that have been continuously improved throughout the last century, applications of robotics have increased in every aspect of our lives. Within all of these various applications, mobile robotics can be given as one of the most common and popular subfield. Utilization of mobile robots emerges in many environments such as, medical applications, military operations, simple household routines, and even space exploration. On the other hand, due to the requirements of different robot designs for individual applications, need for mobile robot designs, which ...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
