    Enhancing Wind Turbine Site Selection Through a Novel Wake Penalty Criterion
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2023-11) Dincer, A. . Ersin; Demir, A.; Yilmaz, K.
    In this study, a novel approach that incorporates the wake effect as a penalty criterion within the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method is proposed. The research introduces the wake penalty criterion for the first time, considering both existing and newly located turbines. The results demonstrate the impact of the wake effect and identify areas with varying wake penalties. A comprehensive suitability analysis is conducted using AHP and Geographic Information System (GIS) techniques, resulting in a suitability map for wind turbine site selection. The analysis considers seven criteria, including the novel wake penalty criterion. The suitability map reveals a distribution of suitability ranges, with 73.8% of the total area excluded due to various constraints. Additionally, a comparative analysis is performed by excluding the wake penalty criterion, highlighting the contrasting effects of wake on turbine placement. Case studies in the Karaburun and ces,me regions of Izmir further illustrate the influence of wake on turbine clusters and their alignment with prevailing wind directions. The findings indicate that the inclusion of wake effects provides a more precise and realistic depiction of viable wind turbine site selection. This is evident in the reduction of 55.5% and 18.6% in the most suitable region (80-100% suitability) and highly suitable region (60-80% suitability), respectively.

    Efficient Disaster Waste Management: Identifying Suitable Temporary Sites Using an Emission-Aware Approach After the Kahramanmaras Earthquakes
    (Springer, 2023-07-31) Demir, A.; Dincer, A. E.
    The clean and sustainable disposal of waste generated by natural disasters is crucial for effective disaster waste management. The initial stages of waste management involve determining the quantity of waste and identifying suitable temporary sites for its disposal. This study estimates that the Kahramanmaras province produced approximately 15 million tons of construction and demolition waste and 41,000 tons of household waste following the recent Kahramanmaras Earthquakes on February 6, 2023. Additionally, the study proposes eight temporary disaster waste sites considering various environmental and technical criteria. It should be noted that this is the first study to factor in emissions from waste transportation when selecting temporary disaster waste sites. An algorithm that considers the transportation network to calculate emissions for each map pixel is developed and integrated with geographic information system to identify the best temporary disaster sites. The results show that the most suitable location for temporary sites is southeast of the city center. The transportation time of the waste to the most suitable temporary site is found to be 98 days when 1000 trucks are in operation. The estimated emissions due to the transportation of the waste to the recycling facilities in this region are approximately 88,000 tons of carbon dioxide, 4.4 tons of sulphur oxide, 7.6 tons of nitrogen oxide, and 47.7 tons of particulate matter. The approach employed in this study can be utilized to identify suitable temporary sites for waste management after any natural disaster.
