    A Droplet Based Multi-Drug Screening System Controlled With Electrostatic Microvalves
    (Chemical and Biological Microsystems Society, 2012) Yildirim, E.; Yıldırım, Ender; Özgür, E.; Külah, H.; Makine Mühendisliği
    This paper presents a droplet-based drug effect analysis system utilizing electrostatically-actuated normallyclosed microvalves to screen the effect of multiple drugs on a single type of cell. Proposed system minimizes the need for off-chip equipment by utilizing parylene based electrostatic microvalves. Prototypes of the system were fabricated and tested using colored DI water and 3 μm diameter micro beads, emulating drugs and cells respectively. During the tests, micro beads could be successfully entrapped in 137 pl droplets. Tests carried out with yeast cells also yielded successful encapsulation of the cells. It was shown that, switching between the drugs could be achieved by applying 200 V dc to operate the microvalves.

    Small-Scale Mechanical Properties of Additively Manufactured Ti-6al
    (The University of Texas at Austin, 2020) Totuk, Onat Halis; Haghshenas, M.; Totuk, O.; Masoomi, M.; Thompson, S.M.; Shamsaei, N.; Mekatronik Mühendisliği
    This article aims at studying microstructure and nano/micro-scale mechanical responses of Ti-6Al4V fabricated using a Laser-based Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF) method. To this end, an instrumented depth-sensing nanoindentation system has been used to assess hardness, Young's modulus, strain rate sensitivity and rate dependent plastic deformation of the alloy at different build Orientations (in the Z-plane and X-plane) at ambient temperature. Indentation tests were conducted at constant proportional loading rate of 15 mN/s in a depth-controlled (hind=2000 nm) testing regime. The Microstructure characterizations were performed using optical and scanning electron microscopy to assess the correlations to the mechanical properties achieved by the nanoindentation testing to better establish structure-property relationships for L-PBF Ti-6Al-4V. It is expected that the fine microstructure, developed by fast solidification during the L-PBF process, to directly contribute to the nanoindentation measurements at different strain rates.

    Numerical Analysis of Pulsating Circular Impinging Laminar Jet on a Planar Disc
    (Turkish Soc thermal Sciences Technology, 2017) Kahroba, Mitra; Türkoğlu, Haşmet; Turkoglu, Hasmet; Makine Mühendisliği
    In this study, the flow and heat transfer characteristics of pulsating circular air jets impinging on a flat surface were numerically analyzed. The jet velocity pulsated in time. The objective of the work is to investigate the influence of the jet Reynolds number, pulsation amplitude and pulsation frequency on the rate of heat transfer from the target hot surface. For the analysis, a computer program, based on the control volume method and SIMPLE algorithm, was developed. Laminar flow with the time averaged jet Reynolds numbers between 300 and 700 were analyzed. The pulsation amplitude is ranged between 0.0V(0) (steady jet) and 0.8V(0) (m/s) (V-0 is period averaged jet velocity), and the frequency is ranged between 1 and 6 Hz. The nozzle-to-plate distance was kept constant at H/d=3. From the simulation results, it was observed that at any instant of the pulsation period, the local Nusselt number is maximum at the stagnation point, and it decreases along the plate. This decrease in the local Nusselt number is not monatomic as in the steady jet cases. It has local maximum and minimum values (fluctuations) due to the moving recirculating flow regions along the bottom plate. At low frequencies, the time (period) averaged stagnation point Nusselt numbers are lower than the corresponding steady jet Nusselt numbers. However, with the increasing frequency, the stagnation point Nusselt number increases and become higher than the steady jet Nusselt number.

    A Reconfigurable Microfluidic Transmitarray Unit Cell
    (Ieee, 2013) Erdil, Emre; Yıldırım, Ender; Topalli, Kagan; Zorlu, Ozge; Toral, Taylan; Yildirim, Ender; Kulah, Haluk; Civi, Ozlem Aydin; Makine Mühendisliği
    This paper presents a novel microfluidics based approach to develop a reconfigurable circularly polarized transmitarray unit cell. The unit cell comprises double layer nested split ring slots formed as microfluidic channels that can be filled by fluids. Split regions in the slots are realized by injecting liquid metal into the channels. Beam steering is obtained by implementing rotational phase shifting via manipulating the liquid metal in the slots. X-band unit cell prototypes are fabricated on glass substrate carrying a patterned metal film, and the slot channels are formed by Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) using soft lithography techniques.

    Neck Protection in Autonomous Car Crashes
    (Kauno Technologijos Universitetas, 2020) Yavuz, Samet; Yavuz, S.; Himmetoglu, S.; Makine Mühendisliği
    Autonomous cars which are expected to be on the market in the upcoming years, present new challenges to restraint system design since unconventional seating plans can put the occupants at more risk. For instance, an occupant sitting on a rear facing seat can experience higher risk of whiplash in a frontal impact considering the fact that statistically frontal impacts do happen at higher severities than rear impacts as seen in the crash test conditions of US NCAP. In this study, an improvement to car seat design is presented in which the seatback is automatically rotated into a more upright position prior to impact in order to increase the energy absorbing potential of the seatback. The study involves computer simulation of a seat-occupant system to demonstrate the benefits of the proposed system. © 2020 Kaunas University of Technology. All rights reserved.

    Phaseguide Assisted Liquid Lamination for Magnetic Bead-Based Assays
    (Chemical and Biological Microsystems Society, 2013) Phurimsak, C.; Yıldırım, Ender; Yildirim, E.; Trietsch, S.J.; Hankemeier, T.; Tarn, M.D.; Pamme, N.; Vulto, P.; Makine Mühendisliği
    We demonstrate a simple, pump-free platform for performing rapid magnetic bead-based processes via their transfer through sequentially laminated liquid streams, made possible by the use of phaseguide technology. We have applied this strategy to two on-chip assays: (i) a streptavidin-biotin binding assay, and (ii) a sandwich immunoassay for the detection of C-reactive protein (CRP). Here, functionalized magnetic beads were pulled through alternating lanes of reagents and buffer solution, allowing multiple binding and washing processes to be reduced into a single step, significantly shortening procedural times compared to conventional multi-step bead-based assays.

    Effects of Earthquake Motion on Mechanism Operation: an Experimental Approach
    (Levrotto and Bella, 2015) Selvi, Ö.; Selvi, Özgün; Ceccarelli, M.; Aytar, E.B.; Makine Mühendisliği
    This paper presents an experimental characterization of the effects of earthquakes on the operation of mechanical systems with the help of CaPaMan (Cassino Parallel Manipulator), which is a 3 DOF robot that can fairly well simulate 3D earthquake motion. The sensitivity of operation characteristics of machinery to earthquake disturbance is identified and characterized through experimental tests. Experimental tests have been carried out by using a slider-crank linkage, a small car model, and LARM Hand as test-bed mechanisms that have been sensored with proper acceleration or force sensors. Results are reported and discussed to describe the effects of earthquake motion on the characteristics of mechanism operation as a service application of the robotic CaPaMan system.
