A Literature Survey on Integration of Wind Energy and Formal Structure of Buildings at Urban Scale
(Springer international Publishing Ag, 2018) Paltun, Serpil; Gultekin, Arzuhan Burcu; Celebi, Gulser; 2919
Providing the needed and indispensable steady, quality and safe energy is one of the most important issues today. Wind energy is one of the most important renewable energy source. Wind energy has found uses much more in water pumping and obtaining electricity in rural areas until last years. Today, wind energy has taken its place in the energy sector as an alternative source of energy production. High-density building arrays within a city, the combination of indoor and outdoor spaces with different purposes effect wind flow and acceptable wind comfort. In urban areas, wind energy and wind comfort are important requirements. Not only in new urbanisation areas but also for existing urban areas and city centers acceptable wind comfort plays an important role among and around buildings. When viewed from this angle, the aim of this study is enlightening the building aerodynamics, wind effect and wind energy in urban environment, and also giving information about how to analyze the wind comfort and design criteria in dense urban areas.
A new method for dissipative dynamic operator with transmission conditions
(Springer Basel Ag, 2018) Uğurlu, Ekin; Ugurlu, Ekin; Tas, Kenan; Taş, Kenan; 238990; 4971
In this paper, we investigate the spectral properties of a boundary value transmission problem generated by a dynamic equation on the union of two time scales. For such an analysis we assign a suitable dynamic operator which is in limit-circle case at infinity. We also show that this operator is a simple maximal dissipative operator. Constructing the inverse operator we obtain some information about the spectrum of the dissipative operator. Moreover, using the Cayley transform of the dissipative operator we pass to the contractive operator which is of the class With the aid of the minimal function we obtain more information on the dissipative operator. Finally, we investigate other properties of the contraction such that multiplicity of the contraction, unitary colligation with basic operator and CMV matrix representation associated with the contraction.
Analysis of parallel decodable turbo codes
(Ieice-inst Electronics information Communications Eng, 2012) Gazi, Orhan; Gazi, Orhan; 102896
Turbo codes suffer from high decoding latency which hinders their utilization in many communication systems. Parallel decodable turbo codes (PDTCs) are suitable for parallel decoding and hence have low latency. In this article, we analyze the worst case minimum distance of parallel decodable turbo codes with both S-random interleaver and memory collision free Row-Column S-random interleaver. The effect of minimum distance on code performance is determined through computer simulations.
Automatic detection of mitochondria from electron microscope tomography images: a curve fitting approach
(Spie-int Soc Optical Engineering, 2014) Taşel, Faris Serdar; Tasel, Serdar F.; Hassanpour, Reza; Hassanpour, Reza; Mumcuoglu, Erkan U.; Perkins, Guy; Martone, Maryann
Mitochondria are sub-cellular components which are mainly responsible for synthesis of adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP) and involved in the regulation of several cellular activities such as apoptosis. The relation between some common diseases of aging and morphological structure of mitochondria is gaining strength by an increasing number of studies. Electron microscope tomography (EMT) provides high-resolution images of the 3D structure and internal arrangement of mitochondria. Studies that aim to reveal the correlation between mitochondrial structure and its function require the aid of special software tools for manual segmentation of mitochondria from EMT images. Automated detection and segmentation of mitochondria is a challenging problem due to the variety of mitochondrial structures, the presence of noise, artifacts and other sub-cellular structures. Segmentation methods reported in the literature require human interaction to initialize the algorithms. In our previous study, we focused on 2D detection and segmentation of mitochondria using an ellipse detection method. In this study, we propose a new approach for automatic detection of mitochondria from EMT images. First, a preprocessing step was applied in order to reduce the effect of non-mitochondrial sub-cellular structures. Then, a curve fitting approach was presented using a Hessian-based ridge detector to extract membrane-like structures and a curve-growing scheme Finally, an automatic algorithm was employed to detect mitochondria which are represented by a subset of the detected curves. The results show that the proposed method is more robust in detection of mitochondria in consecutive EMT slices as compared with our previous automatic method.
Beams with arbitrary field profiles in turbulence - art. no. 652209
(Spie-int Soc Optical Engineering, 2006) Baykal, Yahya; 7812
Characteristics of optical beam incidences that have arbitrary field profiles are examined when they propagate in the turbulent atmosphere. Arbitrary source field profile is introduced by decomposing the source into incremental areas and the received field in the presence of turbulence is expressed as the summation of the fields originating from each incremental area. Intensity moments such as average intensity and the scintillation index in turbulence are formulated under such excitation. Our results correctly reduce to the well established Gaussian beam wave solutions when the arbitrary source beam is taken as the Gaussian field profile. Naturally, all the beam structures such as the higher-order single-mode, multimode, off-axis Hermite-Gaussian, Hermite-sinusoidal-Gaussian, higher-order annular, flat-topped-Gaussian beams form the special cases of our derivation. Numerical results that cover the scintillations in turbulence for various types of arbitrary beam profiles are presented. Our results for the arbitrary source field profiles can be applied in atmospheric optics telecommunication links where combination of several known beams are employed as incidence in an effort to reduce the degrading effects of turbulence. Also in the problems of reflection from rough surfaces, propagation of spatially partially coherent optical beams or double passage imaging in turbulence, our formulation can be utilized.
Cavitation in Hydraulic Turbines
(Edizioni Ets, 2019) Ayli, Ece; 265836
Hydroenergy is one of the richest and most useful renewable energy sources in the world. Hydropower is a vital source as it is the clean energy source, sustainable and last but not least it is also cost-effective. One of the most important parameters that affect the performance of the hydraulic machines is the cavitation phenomenon, which is defined as the formation of the vapor bubbles in the liquid through any hydraulic turbine. In this paper, hydraulic machines, cavitation, types of cavitation are briefly described. After theoretical studies, analytical and numerical researches about cavitation in hydraulic machinery are discussed extensively. With those studies which are summarized in this paper covers a lot of ground about cavitation on the other hand further studies are needed about cavitation in hydro turbines. Numerical methods provide sufficient predictions for cavitation. However, numerical results should be verified by experimental measurements and detection methods to decide what intensity and which shape of cavitation is hazardous and vital, where the local pressure is lower than the vapor pressure and at which static pressure cavities start to grow and collapse.
Classification of Linked Data Sources Using Semantic Scoring
(Ieice-inst Electronics information Communication Engineers, 2018) Yumusak, Semih; Doğdu, Erdoğan; Dogdu, Erdogan; Kodaz, Halife; 142876
Linked data sets are created using semantic Web technologies and they are usually big and the number of such datasets is growing. The query execution is therefore costly, and knowing the content of data in such datasets should help in targeted querying. Our aim in this paper is to classify linked data sets by their knowledge content. Earlier projects such as LOD Cloud, LODStats, and SPARQLES analyze linked data sources in terms of content, availability and infrastructure. In these projects, linked data sets are classified and tagged principally using VoID vocabulary and analyzed according to their content, availability and infrastructure. Although all linked data sources listed in these projects appear to be classified or tagged, there are a limited number of studies on automated tagging and classification of newly arriving linked data sets. Here, we focus on automated classification of linked data sets using semantic scoring methods. We have collected the SPARQL endpoints of 1,328 unique linked datasets from Datahub, LOD Cloud, LODStats, SPARQLES, and SpEnD projects. We have then queried textual descriptions of resources in these data sets using their rdfs: comment and rdfs: label property values. We analyzed these texts in a similar manner with document analysis techniques by assuming every SPARQL endpoint as a separate document. In this regard, we have used WordNet semantic relations library combined with an adapted term frequency-inverted document frequency (tfidf) analysis on the words and their semantic neighbours. In WordNet database, we have extracted information about comment/label objects in linked data sources by using hypernym, hyponym, homonym, meronym, region, topic and usage semantic relations. We obtained some significant results on hypernym and topic semantic relations; we can find words that identify data sets and this can be used in automatic classification and tagging of linked data sources. By using these words, we experimented different classifiers with different scoring methods, which results in better classification accuracy results.
Cosine-Gaussian laser beam intensity in turbulent atmosphere
(Spie-int Soc Optical Engineering, 2004) Eyyuboglu, HT; Baykal, Y; 7688
The effects of turbulent atmosphere on cosine-Gaussian laser beams are examined. To this end, a cosine-Gaussian excitation is taken at the source plane, and subsequently the average intensity profile at the receiver plane is formulated. Our formulation correctly reduces to the known Gaussian beam wave result in turbulence and the cosine-Gaussian beam solution in free space (in the absence of turbulence). Variation of the average intensity profile of the receiver plane is evaluated and plotted against the variations of link length, turbulence levels, two frequently used free space optics (FSO) wavelenaths and beam displacement parameters. From these results, it is seen that cosine-Gaussian beam, following the natural diffraction, is eventually transformed into a hyperbolic-cosine Gaussian beam. Hence, the beam energy becomes concentrated around two main lobes at the receiver plane. Combining our earlier result with the findings of this paper, we conclude that cosine-Gaussian and hyperbolic-cosine-Gaussian beam act in a reciprocal manner after having C, propagated. This rneans, starting with a cosine-Gaussian beam excitation, we obtain hyperbolic-cosine-Gaussian distribution at the receiver plane, whereas hyperbolic-cosine-Gaussian beam excitation will yield a cosine-Gaussian distribution. This reciprocity is applicable both in free space and in turbulence.
Damping constant and the inverse relaxation time calculated as a function of pressure using the X-ray diffraction data close to the cubic-tetragonal phase transition in SrTiO3
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2019) Yurtseven, H.; Kiracı, Ali; Kiraci, A.; 42475
The damping constant is calculated as a function of pressure at room temperature using the normalized intensity as an order parameter near the cubic-tetragonal phase transition in SrTiO3. The observed X-ray diffraction data are used for the normalized intensities to calculate the damping constant () from the pseudospin-phonon (PS) coupled model and the energy fluctuation (EF) model, which is fitted to the observed FWHM data from the literature for comparison. Using the calculated values, the pressure dependence of the inverse relaxation time () is predicted close to the cubic-tetragonal phase transition in SrTiO3. Our calculated damping constant from both models explains the observed FWHM satisfactorily and our prediction of the inverse relaxation time can also be compared with the experimental measurements when they are available in the literature.
Effects of laser multimode content on the angle-of-arrival fluctuations in free space optics access systems
(Spie-int Soc Optical Engineering, 2004) Eyyuboglu, HT; Baykal, Y; 7688; 7812
The effects of the multimode content in a laser beam on the angle-of-arrival fluctuations are examined for free space optics (FSO) access systems. Multimode excitation is represented by coherent addition of Hermite-Gaussian higher order modes. Root mean square angle-of-arrival fluctuations are formulated using the previously reported multimode phase structure function, which is valid in weak atmospheric turbulence. Results are found for practical FSO links operating at 1550 nm and 850 nm wavelengths and for link spans of up to 5 km. In choosing the mode content, various sequential grouping of all possible mode combinations are used up to a certain order (n,m) mode. We start with the single fundamental mode (TEM00) and span up to the highest order (n = 10, m = 10) mode. In this manner, different degrees of source coherence are also taken into account. Angle-of-arrival fluctuations are found to be in the range of several tens of muradians and almost insensitive to the mode content except for the cases when the mode group terminates with an odd mode. In such instances, the fluctuations rise to a few hundreds of murad. Comparing our results with the field of view of a practical FSO receiver, which is several mrad, we conclude that the-angle-of arrival fluctuations due to multimode excitation will not influence the FSO link performance to a major extent.
Fmml: A Feature Model Markup Language
(Amer inst Physics, 2011) Nabdel, Leili; Karatas, Ahmet Serkan; Oguztuzun, Halit; Dogru, Ali
Feature modeling is a common way of representing commonality and variability in Software Product Line Engineering. Alternative notations are available to represent feature models. Compared with graphical notations, text-based notations can be more amenable to automated processing and tool interoperability. In this paper, we propose an XML-based feature modeling language to represent extended feature models with complex relationships.
Intensity fluctuations for source arrays in turbulent atmosphere - art. no. 630308
(Spie-int Soc Optical Engineering, 2006) Baykal, Yahya; 7812
Intensity fluctuations are formulated for source arrays in weakly turbulent horizontal atmospheric links. Source array is composed of point sources separated by variable distances in the transverse source directions. Formula yielding the on-axis scintillation index for the source array is derived by employing the Rytov solution for the structure and correlation functions in the extended Huygens Fresnel principle. Through numerical results, variations of the scintillations versus the array parameters such as the size of the array, spacing between the array elements, amplitudes and phases of the individual sources in the array are investigated. Numerically evaluated intensity fluctuations for such array parameters are compared with the well known single point source scintillations. We are interested to understand whether the use of a source array will give favorable intensity fluctuations in atmospheric communication links.
Intensity fluctuations of focused general-type beams in atmospheric optics links
(Spie-int Soc Optical Engineering, 2007) Baykal, Yahya; Eyyuboglu, Halil T.; 7812; 7688
The intensity fluctuations of focused general-type beams in weakly turbulent atmospheric links are formulated and numerically evaluated. Focused general-type beams in general cover very large range of beams, however in this work we concentrate specifically on the focused sinusoidal-Gaussian, annular and flat-topped beams. The behavior of the scintillations for these beams is examined versus the focusing distance, wavelength of operation and the source size. In our formulation, atmospheric turbulence is introduced through the Rytov method where the free space field (i.e., in the absence of turbulence) at the receiver plane for the general-type focused beam is found by utilizing the Huygens-Fresnel principle. Figures are presented showing the scintillation index for focused general-type beams and collimated general-type beams. To find out the source and medium parameters that will yield favourable scintillation levels, the intensity fluctuations of the focused sinusoidal-Gaussian, annular and flat-topped beams are compared. Within the range of selected source and medium parameters, our observations indicate that the intensity fluctuations in weak turbulence tend to be the smallest for the focused flat-topped Gaussian beams and the largest for the focused cos-Gaussian beams. Gaussian, cosh-Gaussian and annular beams experience interim level fluctuations. The comparison of the scintillation levels for the mentioned types of focused beams follow the same tendency for all the propagation distances. Also, the intensity fluctuations of the focused general-type beams in turbulence are compared with their collimated counterparts. Such a comparison reveals that for all the beams at a selected source size, the scintillations are nearly the same for both the focused and the collimated cases at all the propagation distances, except for the flat-topped Gaussian beams. When focused flat-topped Gaussian beams are employed, the intensity fluctuations seem to be lower as compared to the equivalent collimated flat-topped Gaussian beam at shorter link lengths.

Investigating the Relationship Between SLOC and Logical Database Measures to Improve the Early Estimation of Software Cost
(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 2019) Tokdemir, Gul; Tokdemir, Gül; Cagiltay, Nergiz Ercil; 17411
Project planning is a critical activity in the software development life cycle. At the early stages of a project, the managers need to estimate required time, effort and cost to plan, track and then to deliver the project successfully. Many studies have attempted to provide methods for precise software cost estimation. The current software cost estimation methods are mainly based on software size estimation and functional system requirements. The main assumption of this study is that, as the primary source of complexity in today's software is the interaction between the database and the user, database measures may provide inputs allowing current software estimation methods to achieve more accurate results. Accordingly, this study attempts to gain insights from objective measures, collected through the logical database model of software systems, for better prediction of the software's effort and hence cost through software lines of code (SLOC) measure. For this purpose, more than 2.5 million lines of code developed by four different companies, for 79 different software packages with their related database design measures, are analyzed. The results of this study show that there is a close correlation between the software size and database design measure, namely, the number of tables which can be collected at the logical database design stage. By adapting this result, the current estimation models could be improved significantly.
Method of Evaluation of the Mutual Coherence Function of Laser Beams and Its Application for Symmetric Dark Hollow Beams
(Spie-int Soc Optical Engineering, 2011) Banakh, V. A.; Marakasov, D. A.; Rytchkov, D. S.; Baykal, Y. K.; Eyyuboglu, T.; 7812
In our report, a method of evaluation of the mutual coherence function (MCF) of optical wave propagating in turbulent atmosphere is proposed. The method is based on using inverse Fresnel transform and 2-D Fast Fourier Transformation procedure (FFT) and provides a high accuracy in various propagation conditions from weak up to strong optical turbulence regime. This technique allows significantly reducing the evaluation time of MCF. The proposed method is suitable for optical waves with arbitrary initial distribution of amplitude and phase. Results of investigations on the degradation of coherence of symmetric dark hollow beams (DHB) propagating in turbulent atmosphere are presented. Analysis of evolution of MCF is brought up, and some characteristics of DHB, such as mean intensity distribution, and moments of Wigner distribution are calculated for various kinds of profiles of structural characteristic of refractive index. All of the evaluations for DHB are fulfilled for Kolmogorov spectrum of correlation function of refractive index fluctuations. The comparison between mean intensity calculations within the proposed method and method based on semi-analytical approach using of quadratic approximation of spherical wave structure function, is presented.

(Springer Heidelberg, 2006) Fisher, B.; Taş, Kenan; Tas, K.; 4971
Let f and g be distributions and let g(n) = (g * delta(n))(x), where delta(n)(x) is a certain sequence converging to the Dirac delta function. The non-commutative neutrix product f circle g of f and g is defined to be the limit of the sequence {fg(n)}, provided its limit h exists in the sense that [GRAPHICS] for all functions p in D. It is proved that (x(+)(lambda)ln(p)x(+)) circle (x(+)(mu)ln(q)x(+)) = x(+)(lambda+mu)ln(p+q)x(+), (x(-)(lambda)ln(p)x(-)) circle (x(-)mu ln(q)x(-)) = x(-)(lambda+mu)ln(p+q)x(-), for lambda + mu < -1; lambda,mu,lambda+mu not equal -1,-2,... and p,q = 0,1,2.....
Order-disorder transition in the ferroelectric LiTaO3
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2019) Kiraci, Ali; Kiracı, Ali; Yurtseven, Hamit; 42475
The temperature dependences of the damping constant and the relaxation time are calculated by using the Raman frequencies of a* and the lowest A(1) (TO) phonons in the ferroelectric phase close to the ferroelectric-paraelectric transition in LiTaO3 (T-C = 963 K). Both calculations are performed by considering the frequency as an order parameter for the pseudospin-phonon (PS) and the energy fluctuation (EF) models using the observed data from the literature. Values of the activation energies of this crystal are also deduced by using both models in this crystal. Our results show that the PS and EF models can describe the observed behavior adequately for the order-disorder transition in LiTaO3.
