Article Optimization of Turning Parameters to Minimize Surface Roughness and Tool Wear in Carbon Fiber and Glass Fiber Composite Rods(2025-12-25) Kesriklioglu, Sinan; Cengiz, KemalThe objective of this research is to optimize the cutting parameters for reduced surface roughness and tool wear in turning carbon fiber (CFRP) and glass fiber (GFRP) composite rods. Experiments were conducted under dry machining with a Taguchi L8 orthogonal array, and effects of cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut, together with coated cutting insert were studied. Taguchi analysis as well as regression models and desirability function approach were utilized in assessing the impact of parameters on output such as average surface roughness (Ra), tool wear, including cutting time. The findings revealed that different optimum parameter combinations for CFRP and GFRP; for surface roughness in CFRP, coated tools with 120 m/min cutting speed, 0.2 mm/rev feed rate and 0.5 mm depth of cut provided the lowest surface roughness (2.240 µm), while in GFRP, coated tools with 150 m/min cutting speed, 0.2 mm/rev feed rate and 0.5 mm depth of cut provided the lowest surface roughness (3.557 µm). For tool wear, uncoated tools with 150 m/min, 0.2 mm/rev and 0.8 mm in CFRP (22 µm) and uncoated tools with 60 m/min, 0.2 mm/rev and 0.8 mm in GFRP (25 µm) gave optimum results. Moreover, the seventh experiment (150 m/min, 0.2 mm/rev, 0.8 mm, uncoated) presented the optimum balance with low surface roughness, tool wear and cutting time. This work showed that CVD TiCN+Al₂O₃ coating type was inadequate against the abrasive nature of composite materials and was not suitable due to problems such as peeling style deformation. Results were obtained that GFRP has higher surface roughness compared to CFRP, supporting the hypothesis of fiber pull-out tendency of glass fibers and low thermal conductivity stated in previous literature. The study aims to provide a practical guide to improve the efficiency and quality of processing these composites in industrial applications.Article Numerical Investigation of Sloshing with Baffles Having Different Elasticities(2020) Demir, Abdullah; Dinçer, Ali ErsinLiquid tanks are indispensable members of civil engineering structures like liquidpetroleum gas storage tanks and aerospace structures. Fluids can act unpredictablyunder earthquake excitation or dynamic loads. Loads applied to tank changes duringmotion and there can be deformations at the tank or even at the structure where thetank is placed. This is called sloshing and many researchers study the behavior of it.In this research, behavior of baffles having different elastic modulus is investigatedby a fluid-structure interaction (FSI) method. The numerical method is a fully coupled FSI method proposed by the authors, recently. The method, which is verified bymany problems, uses smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) for fluid domain, finiteelement method (FEM) for structural domain and contact mechanics for coupling ofthese two domains. In analysis, a tank and a baffle having constant initial geometryare excited by harmonic motions. Elasticity of baffle is changed to investigate the effect on sloshing. Results show that tip displacement of baffle has linear relation withits elasticity for higher rigidities. In contrast, tip displacement of baffle has constanttip displacement for lower rigidities.Article A Methodology for Fast and Accurate Analytical Fragility Analysis of Linear Structural Systems during Wind Storms: ALFA(2023) Ciftci, CihanWind-storms are extremely destructive natural disasters that cause structural damage, and consequently severe personal injuries and casualties. To reduce these injuries and casualties, risk assessment of existing structures and improvement of building design regulations have become important. To assess the risk of structural systems during wind storms, analytical fragility analysis is a recently developed method by providing conditional failure probabilities for the structural systems. However, the analytical fragility analysis requires extensive computational time and effort which makes it infeasible for large scale structures. This proposed paper develops a new methodology (Analytical Linear Fragility Analysis: ALFA) to simplify and to expedite the analytical fragility analysis for linear structural systems without compromising accuracy. ALFA is exemplified by obtaining the fragility curves of 70 different multi-degree of freedom (MDOF) linear mass-column systems subjected to varying wind loading conditions. The fragility curves of the same mass-column systems were also obtained using Monte-Carlo (MC) based brute-force methodology, which is a commonly used computationally expensive method in literature, and results are compared. This comparison yields the conclusion that ALFA is 240 times faster than the brute-force one, without losing accuracy. Moreover, ALFA can be utilized for improvement of performance-based design specifications and for the preliminary risk assessment of nonlinear structural systems.Article Methods for Multi-Segment Continuous Cable Analysis(2023-06-20) Demir, Abdullah; Polat, UgurCables are invaluable members for some applications of engineering. The specialty is due to its behavior under transverse loads. Having almost no rigidity in transverse direction makes cables different from other structural elements. In most applications, cables are assumed to be two force members. However, not only its weight but also its application with roller supports makes them different structural elements. Generally, cables are assembled as single-segmented cables (SSC) where they are fixed at their ends. However, in most of the SSC applications, cables have intermediate supports which can be rollers or sliders. These type of cable applications are called as multi-segment continuous cables (MSCC). In MSCC systems, the cable fixed at its ends and supported by a number of intermediate rollers. Total length of cable is constant, and the intermediate supports are assumed to be frictionless and stationary. In this prob-lem, the critical issue is to find the distribution of the cable length among the segments in the final equilibrium state, so reactions at all supports can be found. Two methods are proposed for the segment length adjustment based on the stress continuity among the cable. These methods are named as direct stiffness method and tension distribu-tion method (relaxation method). Results calculated from the proposed methods are verified by both the reference benchmark problems and commercial finite element program.Article Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Analysis of 3D Printer Nozzle Designs(2024-12-31) Hajili, Rasul; Temirel, MikailAdditive manufacturing, particularly 3D printing, has gained significant attention recently due to its flexibility, precision, and sustainability. Among the various 3D printing technologies, Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) stands out as one of the most popular due to its affordability, ease of use, and print quality. However, a major drawback of FDM-based 3D printers is their relatively low print resolution. One of the key factors influencing print quality is the nozzle design, especially its geometry. As a result, numerous studies in literature have focused on improving 3D printing performance by optimizing nozzle design. In this study, we investigated the effects of nozzle geometry from a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) perspective, examining three aspects: die angle, outlet size, and outlet shape. The CFD analysis revealed that the die angle primarily influences the shear stress within the nozzle, while the outlet size has a significant impact on velocity and pressure difference. The outlet shape affects shear stress, velocity, and pressure difference to a lesser extent than the die angle and size.Article Application of Hooke’s Law to Angle Ply Lamina(2022-12-29) Yilmaz, Cagatay; Ali, Hafiz Qasim; Yildiz, MehmetAerospace-grade carbon fiber reinforced polymer composite plates with four different fiber orientations 0º, 30º, 45ºand 60º is produced with the autoclave curing method and subjected to tensile testing. The stress-strain curves of the composite specimens are compared with Hooke’s law. It is observed that Hooke’s law coincides precisely with the experimental results for samples containing fibers parallel to the loading direction. However, it does not coincide with samples where the fibers make a certain angle with the applied load direction.. Moreover, it is reported that Hooke’s law converges the experimental results for small strain values but diverges significantly from the experimental results at higher strain values.Article A Comparison of Ensemble and Base Learner Algorithms for the Prediction of Machining Induced Residual Stresses in the Turning of Aerospace Materials(2022-09-30) Buyrukoglu, Selim; Kesriklioglu, SinanThe estimation of residual stresses is essential to prevent the catastrophic failures of the components used in the aerospace industry. The objective of this work is to predict the machining induced residual stresses with bagging, boosting, and single-based machine learning models based on the design and cutting parameters used in the turning of Inconel 718 and Ti6Al4V alloys. Experimentally measured residual stress data of these two materials was compiled from the literature, including the surface material of the cutting tools, cooling conditions, rake angles, as well as the cutting speed, feed, and width of cut to show the robustness of the models. These variables were also grouped into different combinations to clearly show the contribution and necessity of each element. Various predictive models in machine learning (AdaBoost, Random Forest, Artificial Neural Network, K-Neighbors Regressor, Linear Regressor) were then applied to estimate the residual stresses on the machined surfaces for the classified groups using the generated data. It was found that the AdaBoost algorithm was able to predict the machining induced residual stresses with a mean absolute error of 18.1 MPa for the IN718 alloy and 31.3 MPa for Ti6Al4V by taking into account all the variables, while the artificial neural network provides the lowest mean absolute errors for the Ti6Al4V alloy. On the other hand, the linear regression model gives poor agreement with the experimental data. All the analyses showed that AdaBoost (boosting) ensemble learning and artificial neural network models can be used for the prediction of the machining induced residual stresses with the small datasets of the IN718 and Ti6Al4V materials.Article Makerspace: Innovation in Mechanical Engineering Education(2021-04-30) Bengu, Elif; Kececi, EminGelişen endüstrinin karmaşıklığı, mühendislik öğrencilerinin teorik mühendislik bilgilerinin yanı sıra deneyime de sahip olmalarını gerektirir. Klasik mühendislik müfredatlarının değiştirilmesine ihtiyaç vardır. Makerspace bu değişikliğin önemli bir parçası olabilir. Bu alanlar, mühendislik öğrencilerinin merakının beslendiği ve ekip çalışması yoluyla sorunlara çözümlerin bulunduğu fiziksel yerler olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Yükseköğretimde kullanımları, öğrencilerin deneyimsel öğrenmeye katılımları için bir fırsat sağlamaktadır. Geleneksel lisans müfredatının veremediği planlama, ekip çalışması, eleştirel düşünme ve iletişim gibi beceriler bu şekilde geliştirebilirler. Pedagojik perspektiften bakıldığında ise, bu alanların öğretim ve öğrenmedeki önemi ve etkileri hakkında hâlen sınırlı sayıda çalışma bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı öğrencilerin bu tür alanlardaki deneyimlerini belirlemek ve bu alanların öğrenmelerine nasıl katkıda bulunduğunu incelemektir. Sonuçlar, öğrencilerin mühendislik eğitimlerinden teorik bilgilerden fazlasını istediğini göstermiştir. Teori öğrenirken aynı zamanda tecrübe de kazanmak istemektedirler. Bu amaçla bir makerspace tasarlanırken, bu alanların sürdürülebilirliği ve işleyişi de dikkate alınmalıdır. Bu çalışmanın bulguları, kampüslerinde bir makerspace kurmayı planlayan kurumlara rehberlik edebilir.Article Accurate Prediction of Residual Stresses in Machining of Inconel 718 Alloy through Crystal Plasticity Modelling(2023-03-01) Bal, Burak; Cetın, Barıs; Yılmaz, Okan Deniz; Kesriklioglu, Sinan; Kapçı, Mehmet Fazıl; Buyukcapar, RidvanArtık gerilmelerin belirlenmesi ve değerlendirilmesi, savunma, havacılık ve otomotiv endüstrilerinde kullanılan bileşenlerin arızalanmasını önlemede çok önemlidir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Inconel 718'in işlenmesi sırasında oluşan artık gerilmeleri doğru bir şekilde tahmin etmek için bir malzeme modeli sunmaktır. Ortogonal talaşlı imalat testleri, çeşitli kesme ve ilerleme hızlarında gerçekleştirilerek, Inconel 718'in işlenmesinden sonraki artık gerilmeler, X-Ray ışın kırınımı ile karakterize edildi. Bu süper alaşımın mikroyapısal girdilerini ticari olarak temin edilebilen bir sonlu eleman yazılımına (Deform 2D) aktarmak için bir viskoplastik kendi içinde tutarlı kristal plastisite modeli geliştirildi. Ayrıca simülasyonlar klasik Johnson - Cook malzeme modeli ile aynı işleme parametrelerinde yapıldı. Bu çalışmada elde edilen simülasyon ve deneysel sonuçlar, kristal plastisite tabanlı çok ölçekli ve çok ölçekli malzeme modelinin, mevcut modele kıyasla Inconel 718'in işleme kaynaklı kalıntı gerilmelerinin tahmin doğruluğunu önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini ve yüzey kusurlarını en aza indirmek için kullanılabileceğini göstermiştir. Geliştirilen bu model, kesilmesi zor malzemelerin işlenmesinde yüzey kusurlarını ve üretim denemelerinin maliyetini en aza indirmek için kullanılabilir.Article Application of Classical Lamination Theory to Fused Deposition Method 3-D Printed Plastics and Full Field Surface Strain Mapping(2022-04-30) Yilmaz, Cagatay; Ali, Hafiz Qasim; Yildiz, MehmetBu çalışmada üç boyutlu yazıcı ile Eriyik Yığma Modellemesi (EYM) yöntemi kullanılarak farklı yazma yönlerindeki katmanlara sahip toplamda beş set çekme örneği üretilmiştir. Üretilen üç farklı sete çekme testi yapılarak farklı yönlerdeki elastik sabitler daha sonra Klasik Laminasyon Teorisinde (KLT) kullanılmak üzere ölçülmüştür. Klasik Laminasyon Teorisi genel olarak tek yönlü fiberler ihtiva eden polimerik yapıların modellenmesi için kullanılmaktadır. Bu çalışma ile KLT üç boyutlu yazıcı ile üretilen ve içerisinde herhangi bir fiber takviyesi ihtiva etmeyen ve her katmanda yazma yönleri değişen iki farklı polimerik yapıya uygulanmıştır.KLT ile elde edilen gerinim ve gerilme değerleri çekme deneyi ile elde edilen gerinim ve gerilme değerleri ile karşılaştırmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre düşük gerinim değerleri için KLT ile elde edilen sonuçların deneysel sonuçlar ile uyumlu olduğu, yalnız gerinim değeri arttıkça KLT ile hesaplanan değerlerinin deneysel değerlerden uzaklaştığı görülmüştür.Daha sonra ise Eriyik Yığma Modelleme Yöntemi ile üretilen üç boyutlu plastiklerin hasar ilerlemesi ve kırılması Dijital Görüntü Korelasyon Tekniği ile Tam Alanlı Yüzey Gerinim Haritalanması kullanılarak çıkarılmıştır.
