Adaptive Fractional-Order Blood Glucose Regulator Based on High-Order Sliding Mode Observer
(inst Engineering Technology-iet, 2019) Heydarinejad, Hamid; Baleanu, Dumitru; Delavari, Hadi
Type I diabetes is described by the destruction of the insulin-producing beta-cells in the pancreas. Hence, exogenous insulin administration is necessary for Type I diabetes patients. In this study, to estimate the states that are not directly available from the Bergman minimal model a high-order sliding mode observer is proposed. Then fractional calculus is combined with sliding mode control (SMC) for blood glucose regulation to create more robustness performance and make more degree of freedom and flexibility for the proposed method. Then an adaptive fractional-order SMC is proposed. The adaptive SMC protect controller against disturbance and uncertainties while the fractional calculus provides robust performance. Numerical simulation verifies that the proposed controllers have better performance in the presence of disturbance and uncertainties without chattering.

Adaptive Optics Corrections of Scintillations of Hermite-Gaussian Modes in an Oceanic Medium
(Optical Soc Amer, 2020) Baykal, Yahya
Adaptive optics correction of the scintillation index is found when Hermite-Gaussian laser beams are used in oceanic turbulence. Adaptive optics filter functions are used to find how the tilt, focus, astigmatism, coma, and total correction will behave under high order mode excitation. Reduction of the oceanic scintillation under various oceanic turbulence and system parameters is examined under different high order modes. Also, the effects of the source size, wavelength, and link length on the total adaptive optics correction of Hermite-Gaussian modes in an oceanic medium are investigated for different modes.

Analysis for Fractional-Order Predator-Prey Model With Uncertainty
(inst Engineering Technology-iet, 2019) Baleanu, Dumitru; Thangapandi, Kalidas; Perera, Shyam Sanjeewa Nishantha; Narayanamoorthy, Samayan
Here, the authors analyse the fractional-order predator-prey model with uncertainty, due to the vast applications in various ecological systems. The most of the ecological model do not have exact analytic solution, so they proposed a numerical technique for an approximate solution. In the proposed method, they have implemented the higher order term into the fractional Euler method to enhance the precise solution. Further, the present attempt is aimed to discuss the solutions of the FPPM with uncertainty (fuzzy) initial conditions. The initial conditions of the predator-prey model were taken as fuzzy initial conditions due to the fact that the ecological model highly depends on uncertain parameters such as growth/decay rate, climatic conditions, and chemical reactions. Finally, the numerical example manifest that the proposed method is authentic, applicable, easy to use from a computational viewpoint and the acquired outcomes are balanced with the existing method (HPM), which shows the efficiency of the proposed method.

Analysis of Dengue Transmission Dynamic Model by Stability and Hopf Bifurcation With Two-Time Delays
(Imr Press, 2023) Ambalarajan, Venkatesh; Sivakumar, Vinoth; Dhandapani, Prasantha Bharathi; Baleanu, Dumitru; Murugadoss, Prakash Raj
Background: Mathematical models reflecting the epidemiological dynamics of dengue infection have been discovered dating back to 1970. The four serotypes (DENV-1 to DENV-4) that cause dengue fever are antigenically related but different viruses that are transmitted by mosquitoes. It is a significant global public health issue since 2.5 billion individuals are at risk of contracting the virus. Methods: The purpose of this study is to carefully examine the transmission of dengue with a time delay. A dengue transmission dynamic model with two delays, the standard incidence, loss of immunity, recovery from infectiousness, and partial protection of the human population was developed. Results: Both endemic equilibrium and illness-free equilibrium were examined in terms of the stability theory of delay differential equations. As long as the basic reproduction number (R0) is less than unity, the illness-free equilibrium is locally asymptotically stable; however, when R0 exceeds unity, the equilibrium becomes unstable. The existence of Hopf bifurcation with delay as a bifurcation parameter and the conditions for endemic equilibrium stability were examined. To validate the theoretical results, numerical simulations were done. Conclusions: The length of the time delay in the dengue transmission epidemic model has no effect on the stability of the illness-free equilibrium. Regardless, Hopf bifurcation may occur depending on how much the delay impacts the stability of the underlying equilibrium. This mathematical modelling is effective for providing qualitative evaluations for the recovery of a huge population of afflicted community members with a time delay.

Annular Beam Scintillations in Strong Turbulence
(Optical Soc Amer, 2010) Gercekcioglu, Hamza; Baykal, Yahya; Nakiboglu, Cem
A scintillation index formulation for annular beams in strong turbulence is developed that is also valid in moderate and weak turbulence. In our derivation, a modified Rytov solution is employed to obtain the small-scale and large-scale scintillation indices of annular beams by utilizing the amplitude spatial filtering of the atmospheric spectrum. Our solution yields only the on-axis scintillation index for the annular beam and correctly reduces to the existing strong turbulence results for the Gaussian beam-thus plane and spherical wave scintillation indices-and also correctly yields the existing weak turbulence annular beam scintillations. Compared to collimated Gaussian beam, plane, and spherical wave scintillations, collimated annular beams seem to be advantageous in the weak regime but lose this advantage in strongly turbulent atmosphere. It is observed that the contribution of annular beam scintillations comes mainly from the small-scale effects. At a fixed primary beam size, the scintillations of thinner collimated annular beams compared to thicker collimated annular beams are smaller in moderate turbulence but larger in strong turbulence; however, thinner annular beams of finite focal length have a smaller scintillation index than the thicker annular beams in strong turbulence. Decrease in the focal length decreases the annular beam scintillations in strong turbulence. Examining constant area annular beams, smaller primary sized annular structures have larger scintillations in moderate but smaller scintillations in strong turbulence.

Aperture Averaging in Multiple-Input Single-Output Free-Space Optical Systems Using Partially Coherent Radial Array Beams
(Optical Soc Amer, 2016) Baykal, Yahya; Uysal, Murat; Gokce, Muhsin Caner
Multiple-input single-output (MISO) techniques are employed in free-space optical (FSO) links to mitigate the degrading effects of atmospheric turbulence. In this paper, for the MISO FSO system, a partially coherent radial array and a finite-sized receiver aperture are used at the transmitter and the receiver, respectively. Using the extended Huygens - Fresnel principle, we formulate the average power and the power correlation at the finite-sized slow detector in weak atmospheric turbulence. System performance indicators such as the power scintillation index and the aperture averaging factor are determined. Effects of the source size, ring radius, receiver aperture radius, link distance, and structure constant and the degree of source coherence are analyzed on the performance of the MISO FSO system. In the limiting cases, the numerical results are found to be the same when compared to the existing coherent and partially coherent Gaussian beam scintillation indices.

Average Intensity and Spreading of Cosh-Gaussian Laser Beams in the Turbulent Atmosphere
(Optical Soc Amer, 2005) Eyyuboglu, HT; Baykal, Y
The average intensity and spreading of cosh-Gaussian laser beams in the turbulent atmosphere are examined. Our research is based principally on formulating the average-intensity profile at the receiver plane for cosh-Gaussian excitation. The limiting cases of our formulation for the average intensity are found to reduce correctly to the existing Gaussian beam wave result in turbulence and the cosh-Gaussian beam result in free space (in the absence of turbulence). The average intensity and the broadening of the cosh-Gaussian beam wave after it propagates in the turbulent atmosphere are numerically evaluated versus source size, beam displacement, link length, structure constant, and two wavelengths of 0.85 and 1.55 mum, which are most widely used in currently employed free-space-optical links. Results indicate that in turbulence the beam is widened beyond its free-space diffraction values. At the receiver plane, analogous to the case of free space, this diffraction eventually leads to transformation of the cosh-Gaussian beam into an oscillatory average-intensity profile with a Gaussian envelope.

Beam Diffraction by a Resistive Half-Plane
(Optical Soc Amer, 2015) Umul, Yusuf Ziya
The scattering of a Gaussian beam by a resistive half-screen is investigated. Far-field approximation is used in evaluation of geometrical optics and diffracted waves. The uniform expression of the diffracted waves by the resistive half-plane, which was found with the Sommerfeld-Maliuzhinets method, is obtained. The scattered fields for the case of the beam incidence are evaluated with the technique of a complex point source. The resultant wave expressions are examined numerically.

Bit Error Rate Analysis of Gaussian, Annular Gaussian, Cos Gaussian, and Cosh Gaussian Beams With the Help of Random Phase Screens
(Optical Soc Amer, 2014) Eyyuboglu, Halil T.
Using the random phase screen approach, we carry out a simulation analysis of the probability of error performance of Gaussian, annular Gaussian, cos Gaussian, and cosh Gaussian beams. In our scenario, these beams are intensity-modulated by the randomly generated binary symbols of an electrical message signal and then launched from the transmitter plane in equal powers. They propagate through a turbulent atmosphere modeled by a series of random phase screens. Upon arriving at the receiver plane, detection is performed in a circuitry consisting of a pin photodiode and a matched filter. The symbols detected are compared with the transmitted ones, errors are counted, and from there the probability of error is evaluated numerically. Within the range of source and propagation parameters tested, the lowest probability of error is obtained for the annular Gaussian beam. Our investigation reveals that there is hardly any difference between the aperture-averaged scintillations of the beams used, and the distinctive advantage of the annular Gaussian beam lies in the fact that the receiver aperture captures the maximum amount of power when this particular beam is launched from the transmitter plane.

Bit Error Rate of Pulse Position Modulated Optical Wireless Communication Links in Oceanic Turbulence
(Optical Soc Amer, 2018) Baykal, Yahya
The upper bound of the average bit error rate (BER) of a pulse position modulated (PPM) optical wireless communication (OWC) link operating in oceanic turbulence is formulated. BER variations against the changes in the ratio of temperature to salinity contributions to the refractive index spectrum, the rate of dissipation of mean-squared temperature, and the rate of dissipation of kinetic energy per unit mass of fluid are found at various data bit rates, average current gains of the avalanche photodiode (APD), and M values of the M-ary PPM. It is found that under any oceanic turbulence parameters, BER performance of the PPM OWC system becomes favorable at smaller data bit rates, M values, and at larger average current gains of APD.

Bit Error Rates for General Beams
(Optical Soc Amer, 2008) Arpali, Serap Altay; Eyyuboglu, Halil T.; Baykal, Yahya
In order to analyze the effect of beam type on free space optical communication systems, bit error rate (BER) values versus signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) are calculated for zero order and higher order general beam types, namely for Gaussian, cos-Gaussian, cosh-Gaussian, and annular beams. BER analysis is based on optical scintillation using log-normal distribution for the intensity, which is valid in weak atmospheric turbulence. BERs for these beams are plotted under variations of propagation length, source size, wavelength of operation, and order of the beam. According to our graphical outputs, at small source sizes and long propagation distances, the smallest BER value is obtained for the annular beam. On the other hand, at large source size and small propagation distance, the smallest BER value is obtained for the cos-Gaussian beam, Moreover, our study of the order of the beam shows that higher order beams have lower BER values than the zero order beams at longer propagation distances. But this drop compared with the order seems to be incremental. (c) 2008 Optical Society of America

Chemometric Determination of Naproxen Sodium and Pseudoephedrine Hydrochloride in Tablets by Hplc
(Pharmaceutical Soc Japan, 2006) Özdemir, A; Aksoy, H; Üstündag, Ö; Baleanu, D; Dinç, E
A new chemometric determination by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with photodiode array (PDA) detection was implemented for the simultaneous determination of naproxen sodium and pseudoephedrine hydrochloride in tablets. Three chemometric calibration techniques, classical least squares (CLS), principle component regression (PCR) and partial least squares (PLS) were applied to the peak area at multiwavelength PDA detector responses. The combinations of HPLC with chernometric calibration techniques were called HPLC-CLS, HPLC-PCR and HPLC-PLS. For comparison purposes the HPLC method called the classic HPLC method was used to confirm the results obtained from combined HPLC-chemometric calibration techniques. A good chromatographic separation between two drugs with losartan potassium as an internal standard was achieved using a Waters Symmetry (R) C18 Column 5 mu m 4.6 +/- 250 mm and a mobile phase containing 0.2 m acetate buffer and acetonitrile (v/v, 40 : 60). The multiwavelength PDA detection was measured at five different wavelengths. The chromatograms were recorded as a training set in the mobile phase. Three HPLC-chemometric calibrations and the classic-HPLC method were used to test the synthetic mixtures of naproxen sodium and pseudoephedrine hydrochloride in the presence of the internal standard. The HPLC-chemometric approaches were applied to real samples containing drugs of interest. The experimental results obtained from HPLC-chemometric calibrations were compared with those obtained by a classic HPLC method.

Clinoptilolite/Pcl-peg-pcl Composite Scaffolds for Bone Tissue Engineering Applications
(Sage Publications Ltd, 2017) Pazarceviren, Engin; Erdemli, Ozge; Keskin, Dilek; Tezcaner, Aysen
The aim of this study was to prepare and characterize highly porous clinoptilolite/poly(epsilon-caprolactone)-poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(epsilon-caprolactone) composite scaffolds. Scaffolds with different clinoptilolite contents (10% and 20%) were fabricated with reproducible solvent-free powder compression/particulate leaching technique. The scaffolds had interconnective porosity in the range of 55-76%. Clinoptilolite/poly(epsilon-caprolactone)-poly(ethylene glycol)poly(epsilon-caprolactone) scaffolds showed negligible degradation within eight weeks and displayed less water uptake and higher bioactivity than poly(epsilon-caprolactone)-poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(epsilon-caprolactone) scaffolds. The presence of clinoptilolite improved the mechanical properties. Highest compressive strength (5.6 MPa) and modulus (114.84 MPa) were reached with scaffold group containing 20% clinoptilolite. In vitro protein adsorption capacity of the scaffolds was also higher for clinoptilolite/poly(epsilon-caprolactone)-poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(epsilon-caprolactone) scaffolds. These scaffolds had 0.95 mg protein/g scaffold adsorption capacity and also higher osteoinductivity in terms of enhanced ALP, OSP activities and intracellular calcium deposition. Stoichiometric apatite deposition (Ca/P = 1.686) was observed during cellular proliferation analysis with human fetal osteoblasts cells. Thus, it can be suggested that clinoptilolite/poly(epsilon-caprolactone)poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(epsilon-caprolactone) composite scaffolds could be promising carriers for enhancement of bone regeneration in bone tissue engineering applications.

Comparison of Classroom Furniture To Anthropometric Measures of Turkish Middle School Students
(Ios Press, 2021) Erdogan, Filiz Celikci; Satir, Benhur
BACKGROUND: The match between classroom furniture and students' anthropometry is an important factor in students' academic performance. OBJECTIVE: Our aim was to investigate the ergonomic suitability of the classroom furniture to the students, and to propose design suggestions for both desks and chairs. METHODS: We analyzed the ergonomics of classroom furniture that students aged 10-14 years old in Turkey currently use. To this end, we selected Maltepe Primary Education School, one of the largest schools in the cankaya district of Turkey's capital city, Ankara, in which to conduct the study. A sample of 119 students was selected, and seven anthropometric measurements were taken for each of these students. We then calculated five relationships between the dimensions of the furniture and the students' anthropometric measures. RESULTS: We observed high levels of mismatch rates, with an average of 66.6% and high values of over 95% for the relations of two furniture measures, seat depth (related with buttock-popliteal length) and seat-to-desk height (related with elbow height, sitting). Each anthropometric measure was applied a fit probability distribution, and based on those distributions; we suggested the most appropriate classroom furniture dimensions in order to maximize suitability of the furniture to the anthropometric measures in terms of fixed-size (i.e., non-adjustable) classroom furniture. CONCLUSIONS: High mismatch rates can be reduced by 52.0% on average based on the classroom furniture dimensions suggested in this study.

Competitive Analysis for Stochastic Influenza Model With Constant Vaccination Strategy
(inst Engineering Technology-iet, 2019) Raza, Ali; Rafiq, Muhammad; Arif, Muhammad Shoaib; Ali, Muhammad Asghar; Baleanu, Dumitru
This manuscript discusses a competitive analysis of stochastic influenza model with constant vaccination strategy. The stochastic influenza model is comparatively more pragmatic versus the deterministic influenza model. The effect of influenza generation number holds in the stochastic model. If the value of this number is less than one, this situation will help us to control the disease in a population. A greater than one value of this threshold number shows the persistence of disease to become endemic. The proposed structure for the stochastic influenza model as stochastic non-standard finite difference scheme conserve all vital characteristics like positivity, boundedness and dynamical consistency defined by Mickens.

Competitive Numerical Analysis for Stochastic Hiv/Aids Epidemic Model in a Two-Sex Population
(inst Engineering Technology-iet, 2019) Rafiq, Muhammad; Baleanu, Dumitru; Shoaib Arif, Muhammad; Naveed, Muhammad; Ashraf, Kaleem; Raza, Ali
This study is an attempt to explain a reliable numerical analysis of a stochastic HIV/AIDS model in a two-sex population considering counselling and antiretroviral therapy (ART). The authors are comparing the solutions of the stochastic and deterministic HIV/AIDS epidemic model. Here, an endeavour has been made to explain the stochastic HIV/AIDS epidemic model is comparatively more pragmatic in contrast with the deterministic HIV/AIDS epidemic model. The effect of threshold number H* holds on the stochastic HIV/AIDS epidemic model. If H* < 1 then condition helps us to control disease in a two-sex human population while H* > 1 explains the persistence of disease in the two-sex human population. Lamentably, numerical methods such as Euler-Maruyama, stochastic Euler, and stochastic Runge-Kutta do not work for large time step sizes. The recommended structure preserving framework of the stochastic non-standard finite difference (SNSFD) scheme conserve all vital characteristics such as positivity, boundedness, and dynamical consistency defined by Mickens. The effectiveness of counselling and ART may control HIV/AIDS in a two-sex population.

Complex Degree of Coherence for Partially Coherent General Beams in Atmospheric Turbulence
(Optical Soc Amer, 2007) Eyyuboglu, Halil T.; Baykal, Yahya; Cai, Yangjian
With the use of the general beam formulation, the modulus of the complex degree of coherence for partially coherent cosh-Gaussian, cos-Gaussian, Gaussian, annular and higher-order Gaussian optical beams is evaluated in atmospheric turbulence. For different propagation lengths in horizontal atmospheric links, the moduli of the complex degree of coherence at the source and receiver planes are examined when reference points are taken on the receiver axis and off-axis. In the on-axis case, it is observed that in propagation, the moduli of the complex degree of coherence are symmetrical and look like the intensity profile of the related coherent beam propagating in a turbulent atmosphere. For all the beams considered, the moduli of the complex degree of coherence profiles turn into Gaussian shapes beyond certain propagation lengths. In the off-axis case, the moduli of complex degree of coherence patterns become drifted at the earlier propagation lengths. Among the beams investigated, the cos-Gaussian beam is found to be almost independent of the changes in the source partial coherence parameter, and the annular beam seems to be affected the most against the variations of the source partial coherence parameter.
