Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Sustainable Management of a Renewable Fishery Resource With Depensation Dynamics From a Control Systems Perspective(Gazi Univ, 2022) Cıfdaloz, OguzhanHuman societies are exploiting natural renewable sources such as fisheries, forests, groundwater basins, rivers, and soil at an increasing intensity. Around the world, these resources are being managed by various institutions or governments. One of the challenges faced by institutions is to develop strategies and policies to effectively manage these renewable resources under social and ecological uncertainties, disturbances, policy implementation difficulties, and measurement errors. In this paper, a fishery is considered as an example and the problem of managing a fishery is approached from a control systems perspective. The justification behind this approach is due to the observation that the problem of managing a renewable resource can be posed as a control systems problem and that the discipline of control systems possesses tools and methods to deal with model uncertainties, external disturbances, measurement errors and implementation issues. For the fishery, a depensation type population dynamics model is considered. Depensatory models are used in social/ecological systems in order to model dynamics of certain species of fish populations. An optimal control strategy based on Pontryagin’s Maximum Principle is derived and its sustainability and robustness properties with respect to parametric uncertainties, measurement errors and disturbances are examined. Finally, a sub-optimal but more robust control strategy is proposed and its robustness properties are provided. The main objective of the paper is to show that a control systems engineering approach can be applied to a social-ecological problem and it can provide easy to implement management strategies, insight, and guidance into the management of renewable resources.Article Line-Of Rate Construction for a Roll-Pitch Gimbal Via a Virtual Pitch-Yaw Gimbal(Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2021) Cifdaloz, OguzhanIn this paper, a method to construct the line of sight rate of a target with a roll-pitch gimbal and tracker is described. Construction of line-of-sight rate is performed via utilizing a virtual pitch-yaw gimbal. Kinematics of both the roll-pitch and pitch-yaw gimbals are described. A dynamical model for the roll-pitch gimbal is developed, and a nested control structure is designed to control the angular rates and line of sight angles. A kinematic model of the tracker is developed and a tracker controller is designed to keep the target in the field of view. Conversion equations between roll-pitch and pitch-yaw gimbal configurations are provided. Finally, constructed line of sight rates are compared to true line of sight rates via simulations. Obtained results indicate that the constructed line of sight rates pertaining to a target satisfactorily converge to the actual line of sight rates.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Filter Design for Small Target Detection on Infrared Imagery Using Normalized-Cross Layer(Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2020) Demir, H. Seckin; Akagunduz, ErdemIn this paper, we introduce a machine learning approach to the problem of infrared small target detection filter design. For this purpose, similar to a convolutional layer of a neural network, the normalized-cross-correlational (NCC) layer, which we utilize for designing a target detection/recognition filter bank, is proposed. By employing the NCC layer in a neural network structure, we introduce a framework, in which supervised training is used to calculate the optimal filter shape and the optimum number of filters required for a specific target detection/recognition task on infrared images. We also propose the mean-absolute-deviation NCC (MAD-NCC) layer, an efficient implementation of the proposed NCC layer, designed especially for FPGA systems, in which square root operations are avoided for real-time computation. As a case study we work on dim-target detection on midwave infrared imagery and obtain the filters that can discriminate a dim target from various types of background clutter, specific to our operational concept.Article Non-Linear Eddy Current Loss and Thermal Analysis on Transformer Cover(Gazi Univ, 2019) İskender, İres; Zahedı, Mohammad ZiaHigh current conductors of transformers cause to produce losses and thermal problems in theirtank cover. Finite Difference (FD) Method (FDM) magnetic analysis is used to find out an exactestimation of the magnetic field and the losses near the bushings in the transient solution,considering the non-linear magnetic permeability of the cover plate, because FDM is moreflexible to deal with the nonlinear constitutive law and easy-to-be implemented especially in thecase of simple geometry. Finite Element Method (FEM) thermal analysis is used to determinethe plate temperature based on magnetic FD analysis, taking account non-linear heat fluxboundary condition. A calibration procedure is used between the analyses to ensure the precisionof assumptions. The reliability of the technique, confirmed by experimental and FEM results.
