A density functional study of small Li-B and Li-B-H clusters
(Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2009) Yildirim, E. K.; Guvenc, Z. B.; 1155
In this work we present the results of a detailed theoretical research for the small LinBm clusters and their hydrogen storage properties by means of density functional theory. All calculations were performed by using Gaussian03 program. For the optimization of the clusters 6-311++G(d,p) basis set was employed. We have chosen global minimum of B-6 cluster as the starting point and replaced the boron atoms one at a time, in a stepwise manner, with Li atoms. For these new structures we have searched for the stable configurations, and calculated their energies, HOMO-LUMO energy gaps, Raman and infrared data, average boron, and lithium charge distribution, and vibrational frequencies. Our results show that as the number of Li atoms increases, stability of the clusters decreases and they become more reactive. In addition to that, there are significant charge transfers from boron atoms to lithium atoms on average. The hydrogen storage capabilities of the most stable isomers of LinBm and B-6 clusters have also been investigated by the same methods, and the results are compared. The Li3B3 has the highest hydrogen storage capacity among the clusters investigated in this study. Furthermore, formation of hydrogen molecules is observed in the vicinity of the clusters, some of which are attached to the Li atoms. In addition, as the number of hydrogen atoms increases, the boron atoms are separated from the other boron atoms, and they form satellite BHx (x = 3,4) clusters around the center. These are attached to the system by a bridging bond of a hydrogen or a Li atom. (C) 2009 International Association for Hydrogen Energy. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

A reliable and competitive mathematical analysis of Ebola epidemic model
(Springer, 2020) Rafiq, Muhammad; Baleanu, Dumitru; Ahmad, Waheed; Abbas, Mujahid; Baleanu, Dumitru; 56389; Matematik
The purpose of this article is to discuss the dynamics of the spread of Ebola virus disease (EVD), a kind of fever commonly known as Ebola hemorrhagic fever. It is rare but severe and is considered to be extremely dangerous. Ebola virus transmits to people through domestic and wild animals, called transmitting agents, and then spreads into the human population through close and direct contact among individuals. To study the dynamics and to illustrate the stability pattern of Ebola virus in human population, we have developed an SEIR type model consisting of coupled nonlinear differential equations. These equations provide a good tool to discuss the mode of impact of Ebola virus on the human population through domestic and wild animals. We first formulate the proposed model and obtain the value of threshold parameter R0 for the model. We then determine both the disease-free equilibrium (DFE) and endemic equilibrium (EE) and discuss the stability of the model. We show that both the equilibrium states are locally asymptotically stable. Employing Lyapunov functions theory, global stabilities at both the levels are carried out. We use the Runge-Kutta method of order 4 (RK4) and a non-standard finite difference (NSFD) scheme for the susceptible-exposed-infected-recovered (SEIR) model. In contrast to RK4, which fails for large time step size, it is found that the NSFD scheme preserves the dynamics of the proposed model for any step size used. Numerical results along with the comparison, using different values of step size h, are provided.

A simple analytical EAM model for some bcc metals
(Elsevier, 2010) Dursun, Ibrahim H.; Guvenc, Ziya B.; Kasap, E.; 47800
An analytical embedded atom method which can treat bcc transition metal iron has been developed. In this model, a new potential was presented and a modified term has been introduced to fit the negative Cauchy pressure P-C = (C-12 - C-44)/2 for Fe element. The new model was applied to calculate thermodynamic properties of binary alloys of the bcc transition metals: Fe, V and Cr. The calculated dilute-solution enthalpies and formation enthalpies of random alloys are in good agreement with the results of first principles calculations and that of the thermodynamic calculations.

Abstraction-based verification of codiagnosability for discrete event systems
(Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2010) Schmidt, K.
In this paper, we investigate the verification of codiagnosability for discrete event systems (DES). That is, it is desired to ascertain if the occurrence of system faults can be detected based on the information of multiple local sites that partially observe the overall DES. As an improvement of existing codiagnosability tests that resort to the original DES with a potentially computationally infeasible state space, we propose a method that employs an abstracted system model on a smaller state space for the codiagnosability verification. Furthermore, we show that this abstraction can be computed without explicitly evaluating the state space of the original model in the practical case where the DES is composed of multiple subsystems.

An online adaptive cooperation scheme for spectrum sensing based on a second-order statistical method
(Ieee-inst Electrical Electronics Engineers inc, 2012) Yarkan, Serhan; Töreyin, Behçet Uğur; Toreyin, Behcet Ugur; Qaraqe, Khalid A.; Cetin, A. Enis; 19325; Elektrik-Elektronik Mühendisliği
Spectrum sensing is one of the most important features of cognitive radio (CR) systems. Although spectrum sensing can be performed by a single CR, it is shown in the literature that cooperative techniques, including multiple CRs/sensors, improve the performance and reliability of spectrum sensing. Existing cooperation techniques usually assume a static communication scenario between the unknown source and sensors along with a fixed propagation environment class. In this paper, an online adaptive cooperation scheme is proposed for spectrum sensing to maintain the level of sensing reliability and performance under changing channel and environmental conditions. Each cooperating sensor analyzes second-order statistics of the received signal, which undergoes both correlated fast and slow fading. Autocorrelation estimation data from sensors are fused together by an adaptive weighted linear combination at the fusion center. Weight update operation is performed online through the use of orthogonal projection onto convex sets. Numerical results show that the performance of the proposed scheme is maintained for dynamically changing characteristics of the channel between an unknown source and sensors, even under different physical propagation environments. In addition, it is shown that the proposed cooperative scheme, which is based on second-order detectors, yields better results compared with the same fusion mechanism that is based on conventional energy detectors.

Application of the complex point source method to the Schrodinger equation
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2010) Umul, Yusuf Z.; Umul, Yusuf Ziya; 42699; Elektronik ve Haberleşme Mühendisliği
The paraxial wave equation is a reduced form of the Helmholtz equation. Its solutions can be directly obtained from the solutions of the Helmholtz equation by using the method of complex point source. We applied the same logic to quantum mechanics, because the Schrodinger equation is parabolic in nature as the paraxial wave equation. We defined a differential equation, which is analogous to the Helmholtz equation for quantum mechanics and derived the solutions of the Schrodinger equation by taking into account the solutions of this equation with the method of complex point source. The method is applied to the problem of diffraction of matter waves by a shutter. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Average intensity and spreading of partially coherent standard and elegant Laguerre-Gaussian beams in turbulent atmosphere
(Emw Publishing, 2010) Wang, F.; Cai, Y.; Eyyuboglu, H. T.; Baykal, Y.; 7688; 7812
Analytical expressions for the average intensity, mean-squared beam width and angular spread of partially coherent standard and elegant Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) beams propagating in turbulent atmosphere are derived. The properties of the average intensity, spreading and directionality of partially coherent standard and elegant LG beams in turbulent atmosphere are studied numerically and comparatively. It is found that the beam parameters and structure constant of turbulence together determine the properties of the beams in turbulent atmosphere. Partially coherent standard and elegant LG beams with smaller coherence length, larger beam orders and longer wavelength are less affected by the turbulence. A partially coherent elegant LG beam is less affected by turbulence than a partially coherent standard LG beam under the same condition. Furthermore, it is found that there exist equivalent partially coherent standard and elegant LG beams, equivalent fully coherent standard and elegant LG beams, equivalent Gaussian Schell-model beams that may have the same directionality as a fully coherent Gaussian beam both in free space and in turbulent atmosphere. Our results will be useful in long distance free-space optical communications.

Averaging of receiver aperture for flat-topped incidence
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2013) Kamacioglu, Canan; Baykal, Yahya; Yazgan, Erdem; 7812
Using a flat-topped profile for the incident beam, the power scintillation index for weak atmospheric turbulence is formulated and analytically evaluated. Through the use of the aperture averaging factor, the averaging effect of the finite receiver aperture on the intensity fluctuations for a flat-topped incident beam is examined. The influence of the order of flatness on the averaging is investigated. At large propagation lengths, increasing the flatness parameter decreases the power scintillations and it is possible to further reduce the scintillation by increasing the receiver aperture. Increasing the structure constant increases this effect. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Changes of the centroid position of laser beams propagating through an optical system in turbulent atmosphere
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2013) Ji, Xiaoling; Baykal, Yahya; Jia, Xinhong; 7812
In this paper, the effects of atmospheric turbulence, initial field amplitude, optical system and thermal blooming on the centroid position of laser beams propagating through the atmosphere are studied in detail. With the average over the ensemble of the turbulent medium, the centroid position is independent of turbulence. However, the centroid position depends on the centroid positions at the source plane and in the far-field, and the elements of ray-transfer-matrix. The physical reason why the centroid position changes on propagation is that the far-field centroid position is not located on the propagation z-axis due to the field phase distortion and the decentred intensity. The centroid position of laser beams with the spherical aberration and the decentred intensity is examined analytically. When laser beams with the decentred intensity propagate through the atmosphere, the effect of thermal blooming on the centroid position is investigated by using the four-dimensional (4D) computer code of the time-dependent propagation of high power laser beams through the atmosphere.

Developing interaction potential for H (2H) -> Cu(111) interaction system: A numerical study
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2010) Vurdu, Can D.; Guevenc, Ziya B.
In this study, we have used London-Eyring-Polanyi-Sato (LEPS) functional form as an interaction potential energy function to simulate H (2H) -> Cu(1 1 1) interaction system The parameters of the LEPS function are determined in order to analyze reaction dynamics via molecular dynamics computer simulations of the Cu(1 1 1) surface and H/(2H) system. Nonlinear least-squares method is used to find the LEPS parameters. For this purpose, we use the energy points which were calculated by a density-functional theory method with the generalized gradient approximation including exchange-correlation energy for various configurations of one and two hydrogen atoms on the Cu(1 1 1) surface. After the fitting procedures, two different parameters sets are obtained that the calculated root-mean-square values are close to each other. Using these sets, contour plots of the potential energy surfaces are analyzed for H -> Cu(1 1 1) and 2H -> Cu(1 1 1) interactions systems. In addition. sticking, penetration, and scattering sites on the surface are analyzed by using these sets. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Eley-Rideal and hot atom reactions between hydrogen atoms on Ni(100): electronic structure and quasiclassical studies
(Amer inst Physics, 2001) Guvenc, ZB; Sha, XW; Jackson, B
The reactions of gas-phase H (or D) atoms with D (or H) atoms adsorbed onto a Ni(100) surface are studied. Electronic structure calculations based on density functional theory are used to examine the interaction of H atoms with the Ni(100) surface, as well as the interactions between two H atoms near the metal surface. A model potential-energy surface based on ideas from effective medium theory is fit to the results of these electronic structure calculations. Quasiclassical trajectory methods are used to simulate the interaction of low energy H and D atom beams with H and D-covered Ni(100) surfaces. It is found that hot-atom processes dominate the formation of molecular hydrogen. The distribution of energy in the product molecules is examined with regard to the various pathways available for reaction. The initial adsorbate coverage is varied and is shown to control the relative amounts of reflection, reaction, sticking, and subsurface penetration. Our results are compared with those from similar studies on Cu(111) and available experimental data for Ni(100). (C) 2001 American Institute of Physics.

Entropy-Functional-Based Online Adaptive Decision Fusion Framework With Application to Wildfire Detection in Video
(Ieee-inst Electrical Electronics Engineers inc, 2012) Gunay, Osman; Töreyin, Behçet Uğur; Toreyin, Behcet Ugur; Kose, Kivanc; Cetin, A. Enis; 19325; Elektrik-Elektronik Mühendisliği
In this paper, an entropy-functional-based online adaptive decision fusion (EADF) framework is developed for image analysis and computer vision applications. In this framework, it is assumed that the compound algorithm consists of several subalgorithms, each of which yields its own decision as a real number centered around zero, representing the confidence level of that particular subalgorithm. Decision values are linearly combined with weights that are updated online according to an active fusion method based on performing entropic projections onto convex sets describing subalgorithms. It is assumed that there is an oracle, who is usually a human operator, providing feedback to the decision fusion method. A video-based wildfire detection system was developed to evaluate the performance of the decision fusion algorithm. In this case, image data arrive sequentially, and the oracle is the security guard of the forest lookout tower, verifying the decision of the combined algorithm. The simulation results are presented.

Estimation of aperture averaged scintillations in weak turbulence regime for annular, sinusoidal and hyperbolic Gaussian beams using random phase screen
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2013) Eyyuboglu, Halil T.; 7688
Using the random phase screen method, aperture averaged scintillations for annular, sinusoidal and hyperbolic Gaussian beams are estimated. Prior to this estimation, the designed random phase screen setup is tested against the known results of the existing literature from the aspects of receiver intensity distribution, point-like scintillation index and aperture averaged scintillation of spherical and Gaussian beam waves. Having obtained satisfactory results, we then proceed to estimate aperture averaged scintillations for annular, sinusoidal and hyperbolic Gaussian beams. Our findings indicate that at a fixed aperture radius of 5 cm, sine Gaussian beam exhibits the highest scintillation, annular Gaussian beam has on the other hand has the lowest scintillations. When examined against varying aperture sizes, the scintillation ordering of beams does not change. Furthermore, although larger aperture sizes achieve substantial scintillation reductions, the rate of reductions gradually become smaller. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Field correlations of flat-topped Gaussian and annular beams in turbulence
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2011) Baykal, Yahya; 7812
Starting from the second order moment formulation for multi-beam incidence, field correlations at the receiver plane of flat-topped Gaussian and annular beams are found in turbulence. Reflecting the information on both the randomness due to turbulence and the field profile of the incident field, field correlations of the fiat-topped Gaussian beams are found to become larger at larger source size, smaller flatness parameters and smaller turbulence strengths. For the annular beam structures, field correlations are larger for thicker beams. Field correlations of larger primary beam sized annular incidences are smaller at smaller diagonal distances and larger at larger diagonal distances. As expected, annular beam field correlations are found to be larger at smaller structure constants and at smaller wavelengths. However, at large link lengths, field correlations could be larger than at smaller link lengths due to fact that for annular beams, the field at the centre of the receiver attains very small value at smaller link lengths, however, on propagation in turbulence, receiver field distribution changes to a Gaussian profile.
