    N-type InP Schottky diodes with organic thin layer: Electrical and interfacial properties
    (Journal of Vacuum Science & Technology B, 2010-03) Güllü, Ömer; Turut, Abdulmecit
    The rectifying junction characteristics of methyl red (MR) organic film on n-type InP substrate have been studied. It has been observed that MR-based structure shows an excellent rectifying behavior and that the MR film increases the effective barrier height by influencing the space charge region of the n-type InP. The barrier height and ideality factor values for this structure have been obtained as 0.75 eV and 1.93 from the forward bias current-voltage characteristics, respectively. By using capacitance-voltage characteristics at 1 MHz, the barrier height and the carrier concentration values have been calculated as 0.93 eV and 5.13×1015 cm−3, respectively. The energy distributions of the interface states and their relaxation times have been determined from the forward bias capacitance-frequency and conductance-frequency characteristics. Moreover, it was seen that both the interface-state density and the relaxation time of the interface states decreased with bias voltage from experimental results.

    Numerical and experimental investigation of solar chimney power plant system performance
    (Taylor & Francis, 2020-03-15) Karakaya, Hakan; Durmuş, Aydın; Avcı, Ali Serkan
    A prototype of a solar chimney power plant was performed by modeling in this study. The performed prototype was experimentally confirmed. Temperature, velocity, and radiation values were measured to actualize the confirmation. Experimental data that were obtained to determine the performance of solar chimney whose prototype was actualized by the help of measured values were computationally analyzed. The geometry of a solar chimney in the analysis was bidimensionally (2D) drawn on an axis of symmetry. The numerical simulation was analyzed with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. Since analysis results show that there is turbulent flow in system (RNG), k-ɛ turbulence model was used. Continuity, momentum, and energy equations were applied to the solar chimney system via the finite volume method. Moreover, DO (discrete ordinates) model was inserted in analysis to evaluate the radiation effect in the collector area. In addition to all these, correlation results between SPSS 17 statistics program and data obtained were evaluated. Finally, with reference to the comparison between numerical and experimental results, data obtained and numerical data are close to each other; the prototype is applicable to the real systems.

    PID controller design for controlling integrating processes with dead time using generalized stability boundary locus
    (IFAC Secretariat, 2018) Atiç, Serdal; Çökmez, Erdal; Peker, Fuat; Kaya, İbrahim
    This paper proposes a method so that all PID controller tuning parameters, which are satisfying stability of any integrating time delay processes, can be calculated by forming the stability boundary loci. Processes having a higher order transfer function must first be modeled by an integrating plus first order plus dead time (IFOPDT) transfer function in order to apply the method. Later, IFOPDT process transfer function and the controller transfer function are converted to normalized forms to obtain the stability boundary locus in (KKcT, KKc(T2 / Ti)), (KKcT, KKcTd) and (KKc(T2/Ti), KKcTd) planes for PID controller design. PID controller parameter values achieving stability of the control system can be determined by the obtained stability boundary loci. The advantage of the method given in this study compared with previous studies in this subject is to remove the need of re-plotting the stability boundary locus as the process transfer function changes. That is, the approach results in somehow generalized stability boundary loci for integrating plus time delay processes under a PID controller. Application of the method has been clarified with examples.

    An analysis of sport managers' work stress levels in various variables
    (Horizon Research Publishing, 2018-12) Kılınç, Zühal; Dinçer, Nevzat
    This paper was conducted to measure the psychological and psychosomatic symptoms related with the sport managers’ work stress in public sector and federations. In this research, total 185 sport managers including 31 sport managers from the Central Organization of Sport General Directorate, 113 sport managers from the provincial organization, 41 sport managers from the Independent Sport Federations were included. The relevant managers were applied the work stress scale developed by Houso and Rizzo (1972). According to the results of the research, as sport managers get older, the averages of work stress seem to increase. In younger sport managers, the averages of work stress were found to be lower. When the participant sport managers’ education levels improve, their work stress points fall down. In the first period of service of sport managers, the averages of work stress were high, in next years they went down over time.

    An experimental investigation of the effect of thermophysical properties on time lag and decrement factor for building elements
    (Gazi University, 2020-06-01) Oktay, Hasan; Yumrutaş, Recep; Argunhan, Zeki
    The time lag (TL) and decrement factor (DF) are essential for the heat storage capabilities of building elements, which strictly depend on the thermophysical properties of the elements. Many investigations are presented in literature arguing to find the influence of each thermophysical property on TL and DF by keeping the other properties constant. This study aims to investigate the effect of each property on TL and DF, utilizing relationships between the measurement values of the thermophysical properties of wall materials. Therefore, first, 132 new concrete wall samples were produced, and their thermophysical properties were tested. Secondly, TL and DF values for each building element are computed from the solution of the problem by Complex Finite Fourier Transform (CFFT) technique. Finally, a multivariate regression analysis has been performed, and the variations of each thermophysical property versus TL and DF are presented, and also the findings are compared with literature. The results show that each property alone (keeping the other properties constant) is not adequate to identify the thermal inertia and thermal performance of a wall element. Besides, 87.3 % decrease in thermal diffusivity corresponds to 6.03 h increase in the value of TL and 88.8 % decrease in value of DF; respectively, for W1 wall assembly.

    Determining relevant features in estimating short-term power load of a small house via feature selection by extreme learning machine
    (IEEE, 2017-11-02) Ertuğrul, Ömer Faruk; Sezgin, Necmettin; Öztekin, Abdulkerim; Tağluk, Mehmet Emin
    Estimating short-term power load is a fundamental issue in the power distribution system. Since short-term power load is related to many parameters such as weather conditions, and time. The aim of this study is to determine the relevant parameters in estimating short-term power load not only in order to decrease the computational cost, but also to achieve higher success rates. Furthermore, by using selected features the required memory, equipment and communication costs are also decreased in real time applications. Feature selection by extreme learning machine method was used in determining relevant features. The short-term power loads of two houses (one of them has a power generation capability) were used in tests and achieved results showed lower error rates were obtained by using less number of features.

    Behaviour of bi adhesive in double strap joint with embedded to bending
    (Journal of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, 2015-06-15) Adin, Hamit; Temiz, Şemsettin; Sülü, İsmail Yasin
    In this study, behaviour of bi-adhesive used in the repair of damaged parts was analyzed, using the finite element method. In a double-strap joint with an embedded patch, patch is embedded into the adherents for structural requirements. In addition, to increase the strength of the joint, two adhesives are used to bond the adherents. This approach reduces stress concentration at the overlap ends, increases the load capacity and delays the failure. These effects give rise to higher joint strength. For this purpose, a stiff adhesive, FM73 produced by Cytec Fiberite, was applied in the middle portion of the overlap, while a softer adhesive, SBT9244 from 3M, was applied towards the edges, prone to stress concentrations. Non-linear finite element analyses were carried out to predict the failure loads, to assist with the geometric design and to identify effective ratios of sizes to maximize joint strength. Key words: Bi-adhesive, double-strap joints, finite element analysis, mechanical properties, stress analysis, failure loads

    Docking and molecular dynamics calculations of some previously studied and newly designed ligands to catalytic core domain of HIV-1 integrase and an investigation to effects of conformational changes of protein on docking results
    (Türkiye Kimya Derneği, 2017-01-09) Ercan, Selami
    Nowadays, AIDS still remains as a worldwide pandemic and continues to cause many deaths which arise from HIV-1 virus. For nearly 35 years, drugs that target various steps of virus life cycle have been developed. HIV-1 integrase constitutes one of these steps which is essential for virus life cycle. Computer-aided drug design is being used in many drug development and drug improvement studies as also used in development of the first HIV-1 integrase inhibitor Raltegravir. In this study, 3 ligands which are already used as HIV-1 integrase inhibitors and 4 newly designed ligands were docked to catalytic core domain of HIV-1 integrase. Each ligand docked to three different conformations of protein. Prepared complexes (21 items) were carried out by 50 ns MD simulations and results were analyzed. Finally, the binding free energies of ligands were calculated. It was determined that designed ligands L01 and L03 gave favorable results. The questions about the ligands which have low docking scores in a conformation of protein could give better scores in another conformation of protein and if the MD simulations carry the different oriented and different localized ligands in same position at the end of simulation were answered.

    Can hotel managers with social intelligence affect the emotions of employees?
    (Cogent OA, 2018-01-24) Genç, Volkan; Gülertekin Genç, Seray
    Using the Multilevel Model of Emotional in Organizations, this study investigates whether managers’ levels of social intelligence affect employees’ emotional labor and the emotional climate of the workplace. In addition, the mediating effect of emotional labor on social intelligence and emotional climate is defined. A total of 276 surveys were distributed among the employees of a chain hotel in Istanbul. A structural equality modeling was used to explain the relationships between social intelligence, emotional labor, and emotional climate. The results reveal that social intelligence positively and significantly affects deep acting. It is also shown that social intelligence does not affect the emotional climate, and that emotional labor has no intermediary role. Practical results and recommendations are thus suggested for future research.

    Effects of particle reinforcement on the bending and compressive behaviors of composite pipes
    (Materials Testing, 2019-11) Adin, Hamit
    In this study, the effects of adding particles to composite pipes were examined. For the study, composite pipes reinforced with particles were produced by using structural epoxy adhesive and mica as the particle. Composite pipes oriented at [-45 °/+45 °] were manufactured by the hand lay-up method. The composite pipes were loaded axially for measuring bending and compressive strength. When bending and compression loads are applied in the experiments it was seen that the particle reinforced methods indicated in the literature have a great effect of on the strength of the bending and compressive behaviour. The results show that addition of particles enhances compressive and bending strength.
