    On the Mechanical and Elastic Properties of Anisotropic Engineering Materials Based Upon Harmonic Representations
    (int Assoc Engineers-iaeng, 2013) Dinçkal, Çiğdem; Dinckal, Cigdem; İnşaat Mühendisliği
    This paper presents a new aspect of harmonic decomposition method for elastic constant tensor of various anisotropic materials. Some misprints found in literature are corrected. This procedure derived here, is applied to anisotropic engineering materials possessing different elastic symmetries. In order to gain insight about these applications, numerical illustrations are presented for anisotropic engineering materials. A new description of norm in terms of harmonic tensors is introduced instead of well-known form of norm. This case is a significant innovation for specifying the anisotropy degree of any engineering materials to have opinion about the mechanical and elastic properties of these materials.

    An Innovative Description of Elastic Constant Tensor Based Upon Orthonormal Representations
    (Newswood Limited, 2012) Dinçkal, Ç.; Dinçkal, Çiğdem; İnşaat Mühendisliği
    A new procedure for representation of elastic constant tensor in terms of its orthonormal decomposed parts is presented. Form invariants and orthonormalized basis elements are used to generate this decomposition method. Numerical examples from various engineering materials serve to illustrate and verify the decomposition procedure. The norm concept of elastic constant tensor and norm ratios are used to study the anisotropy of these materials. It is shown that this method allows to investigate the elastic and mechanical properties of an anisotropic material possessing any material symmetry and determine anisotropy degree of that material. For a material given from an unknown symmetry, it is possible to determine its material symmetry type by this method. © 2012 Newswood Limited. All rights reserved.

    Orthonormal Decomposition of Third Rank Tensors and Applications
    (int Assoc Engineers-iaeng, 2013) Dinckal, Cigdem; Dinçkal, Çiğdem; İnşaat Mühendisliği
    A new procedure for representation of third rank tensors in terms of its orthonormal irreducible decomposed parts, namely as irreducible decomposition is presented. Orthonormal tensor basis method is developed by using the results of existing theory in the literature. As an example to third rank tensors, piezoelectricity tensor is decomposed by each method and results of this decomposition methods are compared for this tensor in hexagonal symmetry. As a result of comparison process, it is stated that the results for new method and other one are consistent and each decomposed parts have physical meaning. Moreover, the norm concept of piezoelectricity tensor is used to study the piezoelectric effect of some materials. It is also shown that one can determine in which material the piezoelectric effect is stronger by using the norm for different materials with the same symmetries.

    Microwave Imaging of Plain and Reinforced Concrete for Ndt Using Backpropagation Algorithm
    (2012) Güneş, O.; Büyüköztürk, O.
    The focus of this paper is implementation of backpropagation algorithm as a solution for the inverse source problem for microwave imaging of plain and reinforced concrete targets for nondestructive evaluation (NDE). The data used in imaging was obtained from numerical simulation of microwave scattering by concrete targets using a finite difference-time domain (FD-TD) technique. Electromagnetic (EM) properties of concrete were obtained from previous experimental research. Simulations were performed using a Gaussian pulse wave excitation for dry concrete cylinders with and without a rebar at the center. Images reconstructed using the backpropagation algorithm showed the potential of the method for concrete NDE while drawing attention to its limitations mainly due to the linearizing assumptions in the algorithm's formulation. © RILEM 2013.
