Considering the inherent advantages of the spinning process of simple tooling and concentrated deformation loading, this process can be considered as one of the main options in producing these thin-sectioned lightweight parts. In this study, a Finite Element (FE) model has been developed to simulate the formation of a stepped thin-walled cylindrical workpiece of AISI 316 stainless steel alloy by spinning process. The FE simulation results were employed to investigate the effects of process parameters, including feed rate of the roller and rotational velocity of the mandrel on the distribution of stress and strain in the sheet metal, wrinkling failure, and thinning of the sheet metal during deformation. Experiments were carried out using selective input parameters based on the results of FE simulations. The comparison between FE simulations and experiments revealed that the developed model could predict the thinning of the sheet metals with over 93 % accuracy. Additionally, a good agreement between the experimentally deformed sheet configurations with those resulting from finite element simulations has been observed. © Author(s) 2022.Article Strengthening Effect of Flooding in 3d Printed Porous Soft Robotics Scaffolds(2021) Arslan, Ozan; Selvi, Özgün; Mıstıkoglu, Selçuk; Totuk, OnatThis study aims to design and 3D print porous elements for soft robotic applications and test the stiffness changes when the cavities are filled with liquids. When an elastic element has porous scaffolds, the stiffness can be controlled by filling the cavities with a liquid. A gyroid structure is selected for the design and evaluation of the characteristics of elements. The stiffness of the element in both non-filled and liquid-filled modes is analyzed using FEM simulation Software in two modes where simple support with central loading and compressive uniform loading. A porous test structure is created and tested in these modes for observation of the stiffness change. Employing an FDM printer in this project enabled us to make our thoughts to reality. The results show that liquid-filling can be used as a stiffening method for porous scaffolds in soft robotic applications.Article Kinematic Analysis Of A 5 Dof Overconstrained Manipulator For Rehabilitation Of Upper Extremite(2015) Selvi, Özgün; Al-dulaimi, HasanThis study deals with one of the applications of parallel manipulator as a rehabilitation robot. This device is an over –constrained parallel manipulator 5 degree of freedom with 3 legs. This manipulator consists of a moving platform which is connected to a fixed base via three legs. Each leg is made of RRR(RR) (revolute) joints where the first three joint in all legs are parallel and the recent two joint are intersecting .Inverse kinematics of this device is solved by dividing manipulator into two sub-manipulators with the help of three imaginary joints placed at the intersection of platform joints with a direction parallel to base joints.Article Investigation Of Working Temperature Effect On Micro-Cogeneration Application Of Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells(2018) Budak, Yağmur; Özgirgin Yapıcı, Ekin; Devrim, YılserI n this study, micro-cogeneration application is used to increase the efficiency of Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) systems and effect of different operation temperatures on system performance is observed. For this reason, two different PEMFC systems were comparatively studied operating at 70o C and 160o C, respectively. Micro-cogeneration system design has done considering experimentally determined current density, power and temperature values. Since the amount of heat extracted from each PEMFC system is different related to the operating temperatures, different heat transfer fluids have been used for the cooling systems. These systems are designed for utilization of electricity and hot water for Atılım University Hydrogen Energy Laboratory. Heat loss calculation is made for the laboratory and thermal energy needed for heating the laboratory is calculated. Parallel to the design calculations, simple payback times for PEMFCs with micro-cogeneration applications were determined. LT-PEMFC and HT-PEMFC systems have 402 W and 456 W thermal powers respectively and 87.4 % and 92.8 % total cogeneration efficiencies were calculated for each system respectively. For each system maximum water temperatures and flow rates are calculated as a result of micro-cogeneration application. HT-PEMFC system has found to be capable of higher amount of heating. Even LT-PEMFC system has a lower thermal power and efficiency; it is determined to be more economical and has a lower pay pack time then HT-PEMFC system. For both systems, necessary number of stacks to be used for laboratory heating is calculated as four.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Hybrid Force and Motion Control of a Three-Dimensional Flexible Robot Considering Measurement Noises(Mdpi, 2022) Kilicaslan, Sinan; Ozgoren, Mustafa Kemal; Ider, Sitki KemalThis work addresses the end-effector trajectory-tracking force and motion control of a three-dimensional three-link robot considering measurement noises. The last two links of the manipulator are considered as structurally flexible. An absolute coordinate approach is used while obtaining the dynamic equations to avoid complex dynamic equations. In this approach, each link is modeled as if there is no connection between the links. Then, joint connections are expressed as constraint equations. After that, these constraint equations are used in dynamic equations to decrease the number of equations. Then, the resulting dynamic equations are transformed into a form which is suitable for controller design. Furthermore, the dynamic equations are divided as pseudostatic equilibrium and deviation equations. The control torques resulting from the pseudostatic equilibrium and the elastic deflections are obtained easily as the solution of algebraic equations. On the other hand, the control torques corresponding to the deviations are obtained without any linearization. Encoders, strain gauges, position sensors and force and moment sensors are required for measurements. Low pass filters are considered for the sensors. For the crossover frequencies of the sensors, low and high values are chosen to observe the filtering effect on the robot output.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Analysis of Heat Transfer Enhancement in Tubes With Capsule Dimpled Surfaces and Al2o3-Water Nanofluid(Turkish Soc thermal Sciences Technology, 2022) Ibrahim, Mahmoud Awni A. Haj; Turkoglu, Hasmet; Yapici, Ekin Ozgirgin; Haj Ibrahim, Mahmoud Awni A.This study aims to numerically investigate and evaluate the enhancement of heat transfer by new capsule dimples on tube surfaces for flow of water and Al2O3-water nanofluid with different concentrations, under uniform surface heat flux. The originality of this work lies in combining two passive heat transfer enhancement methods such as geometrical improvements and nanofluids together. Capsule dimples with different depths were considered. Al2O3- water nanofluid was modeled as a single-phase flow based on the mixture properties. The effects of dimple depth and nanoparticle concentrations on Nusselt number, friction factor and performance evaluation criteria (PEC) were studied. Numerical computations were performed using ANSYS Fluent commercial software for 2000-14000 Reynolds number range. It was found that when laminar, transient and fully developed turbulent flow cases are considered, increase in the dimple depth increases the Nusselt number and friction factor for both pure water and Al2O3-water nanofluids cases. Also, the friction factor increases as dimple depth increases. Results show that increase in PEC is more pronounced in the laminar region than in the transition region, it starts to decrease for turbulent flows. For nanofluid, PEC values are considerably higher than pure water cases. The variation of PEC for capsule dimpled tubes are dependent on flow regimes and dimple depths. Increasing the nano particle volume concentration and dimple depth in laminar flows increase the PEC significantly.Article Modeling and Optimization of a Peano-Hasel Actuator Peristaltic Pump(Natl inst Science Communication-niscair, 2023) Mistikoglu, Selcuk; Totuk, Onat HalisPeano-Hasel (hydraulically amplified self-healing electrostatic) pumps are crucial devices with unique mechanisms and versatile applications. They simulate muscle contractions to move fluids or materials through tubes. The Peano-Hasel method, a specific design, achieves flow by compressing a segmented tube externally. Exploring the design aspects of Peano-Hasel pumps can lead to advancements in optimizing their performance, efficiency, reliability, and control systems. This paper presents a novel method of peristaltic pumping on soft pipes using Peano-HASEL actuators. In the study, a design evaluation of an external ring-type pump over a PDMS (Polydimethylsiloxane -commonly referred to as silicone) tube containing Newtonian fluids is made, and a novel multi-pouch ring shape design is proposed. Our method utilizes a peripheral and compact design that allows for more efficient sinusoidal pumping action. The close proximity of the rings in the longitudinal direction enhances the effectiveness of the pumping process. The actuator is analytically modeled and optimized for maximum areal contraction and flow rate using a differential evolution algorithm. A MATLAB Simulink Simscape model is generated, and the system is simulated. As a result, an optimal solution for the number of pouches was found to be eight, considering ring geometry and applicability. It was also seen from the simulation that a sinusoidal squeezing scheme of a ring-type pump creates the desired action. Based on the analytical model presented, it has been demonstrated that the optimal flow rate is achieved when there are eight pouches, and they are fully circular after being energized.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 11Modeling of Computer Virus Propagation With Fuzzy Parameters(Tech Science Press, 2023) Ahmed, Nauman; Baleanu, Dumitru; Fatima, Umbreen; Dayan, Fazal; Rafiq, Muhammad; Mahmoud, Emad E.; Alhebshi, Reemah M.Typically, a computer has infectivity as soon as it is infected. It is a reality that no antivirus programming can identify and eliminate all kinds of viruses, suggesting that infections would persevere on the Internet. To understand the dynamics of the virus propagation in a better way, a computer virus spread model with fuzzy parameters is presented in this work. It is assumed that all infected computers do not have the same contribution to the virus transmission process and each computer has a different degree of infectivity, which depends on the quantity of virus. Considering this, the parameters beta and gamma being functions of the computer virus load, are considered fuzzy numbers. Using fuzzy theory helps us understand the spread of computer viruses more realistically as these parameters have fixed values in classical models. The essential features of the model, like reproduction number and equilibrium analysis, are discussed in fuzzy senses. Moreover, with fuzziness, two numerical methods, the forward Euler technique, and a nonstandard finite difference (NSFD) scheme, respectively, are developed and analyzed. In the evidence of the numerical simulations, the proposed NSFD method preserves the main features of the dynamic system. It can be considered a reliable tool to predict such types of solutions.Article Assessment of the Use of AutoCAD in Mechanical Engineering Technical Drawing Education(2017) Akyürek, TurgutAutoCAD is one of the widely used software tools in engineering education.
