Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1A Simple Way for Estimating Mechanical Properties From Stress-Strain Diagram Using Matlab and Mathematica(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019) Yılmaz, Emre; Yilmaz, E.; Yavuz, S.; Yavuz, Samet; 237938; Malzeme Bilimi ve Mühendisliği; Makine MühendisliğiIn this paper, mechanical properties of materials, e.g. ultimate tensile strength, yield stress, elastic modulus, ductility, resilience, toughness, etc., are calculated using MATLAB and Mathematica programming language and stress-strain data of any alloy. © 2019 IEEE.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 4Design and Dimensional Optimization of A Novel Walking Mechanism With Firefly Algorithm(Springer Netherlands, 2018) Selvi, Özgün; Selvi, Ö.; Yavuz, S.; Yavuz, Samet; 237938; Makine MühendisliğiIn this paper, a walking mechanism named Atlas is proposed which is a Watt-I type 6 link mechanism. First, the geometry is proposed and then kinematic analysis is done that will be used for the synthesis problem. Furthermore, constraints and an objective function are obtained from kinematic analysis. Then, these constraints are implemented to the Firefly Algorithm and dimensional parameters are obtained for a desired step profile. Finally, these dimensional parameters are tested. © Springer International Publishing AG 2018.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 0Neck protection in autonomous car crashes(Kauno Technologijos Universitetas, 2020) Yavuz, S.; Himmetoglu, S.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.
