Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 9Strategy Creation, Decomposition and Distribution in Particle Navigation(Elsevier Science inc, 2007) Leblebicioglu, Kemal; Beldek, UlasStrategy planning is crucial to control a group to achieve a number of tasks in a closed area full of obstacles. In this study, genetic programming has been used to evolve rule-based hierarchical structures to move the particles in a grid region to accomplish navigation tasks. Communications operations such as receiving and sending commands between particles are also provided to develop improved strategies. In order to produce more capable strategies, a task decomposition procedure is proposed. In addition, a conflict module is constructed to handle the challenging situations and conflicts such as blockage of a particle's pathway to destination by other particles. (C) 2006 Elsevier Inc.

The method of physical optics is used for the analysis of the problem. The reflected fields by a whole-plane are taken into account. The surface electric and magnetic current densities are constructed with the aid of the incident wave and the reflected field from the whole-surface. The scattering integrals are obtained for the electric and magnetic vector potentials. The scattered electric and magnetic fields are expressed in terms of the vector potentials. The scattering integrals are evaluated asymptotically for large values of the wave-number. Some numerical results are given.Article Citation - WoS: 48Citation - Scopus: 54A Reliable and Competitive Mathematical Analysis of Ebola Epidemic Model(Springer, 2020) Ahmad, Waheed; Abbas, Mujahid; Baleanu, Dumitru; Rafiq, MuhammadThe 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.Editorial Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5Comments on "on the Modified Theory of Physical Optics(Ieee-inst Electrical Electronics Engineers inc, 2014) Umul, Yusuf Z.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Dissociative Chemisorption of an H2 (V,j) Molecule on Rigid Ni (100) Surface: Dependence on Surface Topologies and Initial Rovibrational States of the Molecules(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2005) Evecen, M; Böyükata, M; Çivi, M; Güvenç, ZBThe H-2(v,j)+Ni(100) collision system has been studied to understand the effects of the surface sites and initial rovibrational states of the molecule on molecule-surface interactions, by a quasiclassical molecular dynamic simulation method. Dissociative adsorption of an H-2 molecule on the rigid Ni(100) surface is investigated at topologically different three sites of the surface. Interaction between the molecule and Ni surface was described by a London-Eyring Polani-Sato (LEPS) potential. Dissociative chemisorption probabilities of the H-2(v, j) molecule on various sites of the surface are presented as a function of the translation energies between 0.001-1.0eV. The probabilities obtained at each collision site have unique behaviour. At lower collision energies, indirect processes enhance the reactivity, effects of the rotational excitations and impact sites on the reactivity are more pronounced. The results are compared with the available studies, The physical mechanisms underlying the results and quantum effects are discussed.Article Citation - WoS: 13Dft Study of Al Doped Cage B12hn Clusters(Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2011) Boyukata, Mustafa; Guvenc, Ziya B.Density Functional Theory (DFT) with B3LYP/6-311++g** level has been performed to investigate the electronic structures of cage B12Hn for up to n <= 12 and AlB12Hn for up to n <= 13. Moreover, the computations has been extended to the charged clusters of [B12H12](q), [AlB12H12](q) and [AlB12H13](q) where (q = +/- 1 and +/- 2). Their energetics are calculated and structural analysis have been carried out. Cage form of the B-12 remains stable against to hydrogen adsorptions.

As a result of this limitation, optical imaging of rare cells (e.g., circulating tumour cells) within unprocessed whole blood remains a challenge, demanding the use of special microfluidic technologies. Here we demonstrate a new fluorescent on-chip imaging modality that can rapidly screen large volumes of absorbing and scattering media, such as undiluted whole blood samples, for detection of fluorescent micro-objects at low concentrations (for example <= 50-100 particles/mL). In this high-throughput imaging modality, a large area microfluidic device (e.g., 7-18 cm(2)), which contains for example similar to 0.3-0.7 mL of undiluted whole blood sample, is directly positioned onto a wide-field opto-electronic sensor-array such that the fluorescent emission within the microchannel can be detected without the use of any imaging lenses. This microfluidic device is then illuminated and laterally scanned with an array of Gaussian excitation spots, which is generated through a spatial light modulator. For each scanning position of this excitation array, a lensfree fluorescent image of the blood sample is captured using the opto-electronic sensor-array, resulting in a sequence of images (e.g., 144 lensfree frames captured in similar to 36 s) for the same sample chip. Digitally merging these lensfree fluorescent images based on a maximum intensity projection (MIP) algorithm enabled us to significantly boost the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and contrast of the fluorescent micro-objects within whole blood, which normally remain undetected (i.e., hidden) using conventional uniform excitation schemes, involving plane wave illumination. This high-throughput on-chip imaging platform based on structured excitation could be useful for rare cell research by enabling rapid screening of large volume microfluidic devices that process whole blood and other optically dense media.Article Hydrogen hosting of nanoscale boron cluster(Editura Academiei Romane, 2008) Böyükata, Mustafa; Özdoğan, C.; Güvenç, Ziya B.; Bäoyäukata, M.; ÄozdoGan, C.; Gäuvenc, Z.B.In this paper the Density Functional Results of hydrogen bonded boron micro clusters with B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level of computations will be presented. Energetics and structural stability with their possible stable geometries of various selected micro complexes of B(m)H(n) (for m and n <= 11 )boron hydrides have been analysed, and their binding energies with HOMO-LUMO energy gaps have been determined. Mainly, erects of the number of hydrogen atoms on the structures of the boranes are assessed. Moreover, for the cage configurations their distortions have been investigated for the neutral, anionic and cationic cases. It has been observed that there have been two opposing factors for the cage configurations. One of which is the "peeling" of the cage structures by the hydrogen atoms, and the other one is reforming a smaller cage form simultaneously with there remaining boron atoms inside. This is observed mostly for the odd values of m. From our studies it has been also observed that with the bare boronclusters alone, it is difficult to increase the capacity of the hydrogen storage. Therefore, further studies are necessary with the boron complexesArticle Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Boundary Diffraction Wave Theory Approach To Corner Diffraction(Springer, 2019) Umul, Yusuf ZiyaThe scattering process of plane waves by a discontinuous edge contour is studied with the three dimensional boundary diffraction wave theory. The edge and corner diffracted fields are obtained from the stationary phase and edge point evaluations of the line integral. A new corner diffraction coefficient is derived. The behaviors of the uniform edge and corner diffracted waves are investigated numerically.Article Citation - WoS: 22Citation - Scopus: 20The Method of Transition Boundary for the Solution of Diffraction Problems(Springer, 2019) Umul, Yusuf ZiyaA new method, which enables one to solve some diffraction problems, is put forth. The technique is based on a relation between the diffracted and scattered geometric optics waves at the transition boundaries. The concept of initial waves is also used instead of the incident field. The general algorithm of the method is outlined and applied to the diffraction problems of waves by perfect electric conductor half-screen, resistive half-plane and impedance sheet junction.
