    Zaman Pencereli Araç Rotalama Problemleri İçin Kümeleme Temelli Klonal Seçim Algoritması
    (2023-12-31) Özmen, Mihrimah; Kolukısa, Burak; Dedeturk, Bilge Kagan
    Günümüzde doğal felaketlerin sayısı artmakta, daha sık yaşanmakta ve bu afetler, insan hayatını derinden etkilemektedir. Depremler, sel olayları ve salgınlar gibi doğal felaketlerin yol açtığı tahribatla başa çıkmak oldukça zordur. Türkiye'de gerçekleşen 6 Şubat depremi 11 ili etkileyerek yaklaşık 14 milyon insanı mağdur etmiştir. Deprem sonrası yol, köprü, tünel ve demiryolu gibi ulaşım altyapıları işlevsiz hale gelebilmekte ve alternatif rotaların hızla belirlenmesi zorlaşabilmektedir. Deprem sonrası yardım dağıtım faaliyetlerinde, araç rotalama problemleri (ARP) ile çözüm üretilebilir. ARP, çok sayıda müşteriye hizmet vermek amacıyla bir araç filosunu optimize eden kombinatoryal bir optimizasyon ve tam sayılı programlama problemidir. Zaman pencereli araç rotalama problemi (ZP-ARP) belirli zaman ve kapasite kısıtları altında en düşük maliyetle rotaların belirlenmesini amaçlar. Bu çalışmada, ZP-ARP için Kümeleme Temelli Klonal Seçim Algoritması (KSA) önerilmektedir. K-ortalama ve K-ortalama++ algoritmaları kullanılarak algoritmanın başlangıç çözüm kümesi iyileştirilmiş ve ardından KSA ile ZR-ARP için sonuçlar elde edilmiştir. Deneyler, ARP algoritmalarının sınanmasında literatürde sıklıkla kullanılan Solomon C1 ve R1 veri setleri üzerinde gerçekleştirilmiş olup, çeşitli problemler için sonuçları alınmıştır. Deney sonuçlarına göre, kümeleme algoritması ile başlangıç çözümü elde edilmesi, KSA’nın sonuçlarını iyileştirdiği ve KSA’ nın yerel optimuma takılmasını önlediği görülmüştür.

    Tekrarlı Trafik Yükleri Altında Farklı Kil İçeriklerine Sahip Orta-Sıkı Kum-Kil Karışımlarının Esneklik Modülünün İncelenmesi
    (2021) Fedakar, Halil İbrahim
    Esneklik modülü, tekrarlı trafik yükleri altında yol temel tabakalarının uzun dönem deformasyon performansının tahmin edilmesinde yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır. Bu nedenle, bu malzeme özelliğinin doğru tayini yol tasarımlarında büyük öneme sahiptir. Bu çalışmada, orta sıkı kum-kil karışımlarının esneklik modülü, dinamik üç eksenli ve kalp şekli gerilme izleri ile araştırılmıştır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda, ağırlıkça %0, %5, %10 ve %20 kil içeren kum-kil numuneleri %50 başlangıç rölatif sıkılıkta hazırlanmış ve yarık silindir deney cihazı kullanılarak test edilmiştir. Deney sonuçlarına göre kum-kil karışımlarının esneklik modülü değerleri dinamik üç eksenli gerilme izi ile daha fazla tahmin edilmektedir. Bu durum ise orta-sıkı kum-kil karışımlarının trafik yükleri altındaki deformasyon davranışının kalp şekli gerilme izine kıyasla daha düşük tahmin edilmesine sebep olmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın bulgularına dayanarak, kum-kil karışımlarının esneklik modülünün yol tasarımlarıiçin daha doğru bir şekilde tahmin edilmesinde kalp şekli gerilme iziningöz önüne alınması gerektiği sonucuna varılmıştır.

    Symbolic Aggregate Approximation-Based Clustering of Monthly Natural Gas Consumption
    (2024-03-24) Söylemez, İsmet; Ünlü, Ramazan; Nalici, Mehmet Eren
    Natural gas is an indispensable non-renewable energy source for many countries. It is used in many different areas such as heating and kitchen appliances in homes, and heat treatment and electricity generation in industry. Natural gas is an essential component of the transportation sector, providing a cleaner alternative to traditional fuels in vehicles and fleets. Moreover, natural gas plays a vital role in boosting energy efficiency through the development of combined heat and power systems. These systems produce electricity and useful heat concurrently. As nations move towards more sustainable energy solutions, natural gas has gained prominence as a transitional fuel. This is due to its lower carbon emissions when compared to coal and oil, thus making it an essential component of the global energy framework. In this study, monthly natural gas consumption data of 28 different European countries between 2014 and 2022 are used. Symbolic Aggregate Approximation method is used to analyse the data. Analyses are made with different numbers of segments and numbers of alphabet sizes, and alphabet vectors of each country are created. These letter vectors are used in hierarchical clustering and dendrogram graphs are created. Furthermore, the elbow method is used to determine the appropriate number of clusters. Clusters of countries are created according to the determined number of clusters. In addition, it is interpreted according to the consumption trends of the countries in the determined clusters.

    Sargısız Betonun Mekanik Özelliklerinin TBDY 2018 ve Diğer Modellerle Analitik ve Deneysel Karşılaştırılması
    (2023) Küçükgöncü, Hürmet
    Betonarme elemanların davranışlarının anlaşılabilmesi için betonarmeyi oluşturan malzemelerin gerilme-şekil değiştirme davranışlarının bilinmesi gerekmektedir. Sargısız beton malzemesinin gerilme-şekil değiştirme davranışının tahmin edilebilmesi için pek çok matematiksel model geliştirilmiştir. Türkiye Bina Deprem Yönetmeliği 2018 (TBDY 2018) de de sargısız betonların gerilme-şekil değiştirme bağıntılarına yer verilmektedir. Ancak bu matematiksel modellerin dayanım, süneklik ve yük altında enerji tüketebilme kapasitesi açısından benzer özelliklerdeki deneysel numunelerden farkının tespit edilmesi oldukça önemlidir. Böylece sargısız beton modellerin, analitik yaklaşımlarının doğruluğu belirlenebilmektedir. Betonarme yapısal elemanların özellikle kesit davranışı araştırılırken ya da yük altında kesit tasarımları yapılırken söz konusu modellerin sergilediği davranışı bilmek büyük kolaylıklar sağlamaktadır. Bu nedenle, bu çalışmada TS 500 yönetmeliğinde yer alan beton sınıfları ve dayanımlarına uygun olarak üretilen numuneler basınç testine tabi tutulmuş, sonrasında ise bu dayanım sınıflarına ait sargısız beton davranışı için literatürde sık kullanılan matematiksel modeller ve TBDY 2018 de yer alan bağıntılar kullanılarak gerilme-şekil değiştirme grafikleri elde edilmiştir. Bu grafiklerden yararlanılarak süneklik ve enerji tüketebilme kapasitesi gibi mekanik özellikleri, TBDY 2018 ve diğer matematiksel modellerle, deneysel verilerden elde edilen değerler karşılaştırılarak farklılıkları ortaya konulmuştur. Buna göre göz önüne alınan beton modellerinin güçlü ve zayıf yönleri belirlenmiş ve kullanılan beton sınıfına ait dayanımın da modellerin performansı üzerinde etkili olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır.

    (2021-12-29) Akyüz, Sinan
    The focus of this paper is the redevelopment of the squatter settlements in Ankara Turkey. Most of the articles focus on gentrification and changing neighbourhood social structures but the redevelopment of the squatter settlements also aims the production of formal low-income housing as well as the integration of previous non-formal housing into formal urban space. Therefore, this article suggests that the contemporary redevelopment project of squatters in Ankara, Turkey is a part of a broader strategy of integrating low-income into the formal housing system by cooperating with a part of low-income groups. The research was made in Altındağ, Ankara by using a deep semi-structured interview, and document analyses method. The researcher conducted 25 interviews with residents and 2 interviews with officials.

    Optimal Location Determination of Electric Vehicle Charging Stations: A Case Study on Turkey's Most Preferred Highway
    (2022-06-30) Gülbahar, İbrahim Tümay; Sütçü, Muhammed
    Today, electric vehicles are seen as one of the most suitable and environmentally friendly alternatives to internal combustion engine vehicles. An important issue related to the dissemination of electric vehicles is the location of the vehicle charging network and specifically the optimum location selection of the charging stations. Generally, most of the studies focus on popular destinations such as city centers, shopping areas, bus stations, and airports. Although these places are often used in normal life, they can usually provide an adequate solution for daily charging needs due to the number of alternative charging stations. However, finding adequate charging stations is not possible in intercity travels especially in highways. In this paper, we proposed a decision model to determine the location of electric car charging stations in highways. We create an optimization model to decide the optimum locations for the charging stations that can meet the customer demands on the Istanbul-Ankara highway. The proposed model determines optimum charging stations that enable passengers traveling with their electric vehicles to travel in Istanbul-Ankara highway in the shortest time.

    Methods for Multi-Segment Continuous Cable Analysis
    (2023-06-20) Demir, Abdullah; Polat, Ugur
    Cables 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.

    Effects of Dry Particle Coating With Nano-and Microparticles on Early Compressive Strength of Portland Cement Pastes
    (Tulpar Academic Publishing, 2021-12-16) Yorulmaz, Hediye; Özuzun, Sümeyye; Uzal, Burak; İLkentapar, Serhan; Durak, Uğur; Karahan, Okan; Atis, C. D.
    It is known that nano-and microparticles have been very popular in recent years since their advantages. However, due to the very small size of such materials, they have very high tendency to agglomeration particularly for nanoparticles. Therefore, it is critical that they are properly distributed in the system to which they are added. This paper investigated the effects of dry particle coating with nano-and microparticles to solve the agglomeration problem. For a clear evaluation, paste samples were preferred to detemine the compressive strength. Nano-SiO<inf>2</inf> and nano-CaCO<inf>3</inf>, microCaCO<inf>3</inf> and micro-SiO<inf>2</inf>, also known as silica fume, were selected as particulate additives. It was studied by the addition of various percentages (0.3, 0.7, 1, 2, 3 and 5%) of nano-and microparticles in cementitious systems, replacing cement by weight with and without dry particle coating. Dry particle coating was made by using a highspeed paddle mixer. Portland cement and additive particles were mixed at 1500 rpm for 30 seconds in high-speed powder mixer designed for this purpose. The 3-day compressive strength of the cement-based samples to which particles were added at the specified rates was determined and the effect of the dry particle coating on the early strength was investigated. According to the results, it was observed that the production of paste with the dry particle coating technique gave higher compressive strength compared to the production of paste directly in early period. Especially with dry particle coating, compressive strength increased more than 100% in paste samples containing 0.3% nano-SiO<inf>2</inf> compared to direct addition without coating. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Determining Datum Temperature and Apparent Activation Energy: An Approach for Mineral Admixtures Incorporated Cementitious Systems
    (Tulpar Academic Publishing, 2024-12-10) Atasever, Muhammet; Tokyay, Mustafa
    The maturity method is used to predict the strength of concrete by monitoring its temperature history. Accuracy of maturity method relies on the dependable determination of the datum temperature and the apparent activation energy. The current study introduces a new approach, complementing those in ASTM C1074-11, for determining the datum temperature and apparent activation energy. The experimental study involved using two different mineral additives to portland cement at 6%, 20%, and 35% replacement amounts. The mortars were then cured at temperatures of 5, 20, and 40 °C, and their strengths were determined. Subsequently, the datum temperatures and apparent activation energies for these mixtures were calculated using both the proposed approach and the alternatives from ASTM C1074-11. Strength estimations were conducted in conjunction with commonly used maturity functions. The results indicate that the proposed approach determines the datum temperature and apparent activation energy reliably for mineral admixture-incorporated mortars. Furthermore, the predicted strengths, derived from the datum temperature and apparent activation energy calculated through the proposed approach, show a closer alignment with the experimental results when applying the Nurse-Saul and Hansen-Pedersen equations, as opposed to the Rastrup and Weaver-Sadgrove models. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Comparison of Mechanical and Physical Properties of Screed With and Without Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) Particles
    (Yildiz Technical University, 2022-12-31) Kiliç, Fikret Merih; Yorulmaz, Hediye; Özuzun, Sümeyye; Durak, Uğur; İLkentapar, Serhan; Karahan, Okan; Atis, C. D.
    In this study, in order to observe the mechanical and physical properties of ordinary screed, sandy-lightweight screed and lightweight screed samples, expanded polystyrene (EPS) was used as fine aggregate and lightweight screed systems were produced by replacing sand at 100%, 50% and 0%. Samples of cement dosages of 250, 300, 350 kg/m3 were produced for lightweight screeds, sandy-lightweight screeds and ordinary screeds. Unit weight, water absorption capacity, flexural strength, compressive strength, fire resistance, abrasion and thermal conductivity tests were performed on the produced screed systems. As a result of the research, it was determined that as EPS ratio increases in screed system; unit weights decreased, water absorption rates increased. Besides, the flexural and compressive strengths, fire and abrasion resistance are also decreased. However, it was observed that the thermal conductivity coefficient reduced with the increment of EPS particles in the screed. In normal, sandy-lightweight and lightweight screeds, it was determined that as the cement dosage increased; the unit weights, flexural and compressive strengths, fire and abrasion resistance increased, water absorption capacity and the thermal conductivity coefficient decreased. © 2022 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
