    Generating Lost Urban Fabric: Exploration of Generative Adversarial Networks as a Design Tool in Post-Disaster Urban Recovery
    (Education and Research in Computer Aided Architectural Design in Europe, 2025) Takış, F.N.; Akyüz, S.
    This study investigates the use of GANs, particularly the Pix2PixHD, for reconstructing urban fabric and preserving urban memory in post-disaster contexts, focusing on Hatay, Türkiye, after the 2023 earthquakes. Models were trained on pre-disaster urban maps and tested on incomplete post-earthquake data to regenerate damaged urban areas. Evaluation metrics, including FID scores, SSIM values, and visual inspections, demonstrated the model's ability to produce contextually accurate designs. The trained model effectively maintained road networks, building geometries, and spatial coherence. In addition to spatial consistency, the model produced outputs with sharp edges and high visual clarity. These results highlight the significant potential of GANs as generative design tools, offering valuable support to urban planners and architects in balancing urgent reconstruction needs with the long-term preservation of urban identity and memory in disaster-affected areas. © 2025, Education and research in Computer Aided Architectural Design in Europe.

    (University and Research Librarians Association (UNAK), 2024-12-26) Cuhadar, S.; Mert, S.; Gezer, Ç.; Helvacioğlu, E.; Arus, O.; Aslan, Ö.; Atli, S.; Gurdal, Gultekin; Erken, Mehmet
    Today, libraries are among the institutions affected by changing technology and innovations. The popularization of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies has also begun to transform library services. In this research, a survey was conducted to determine the adjustments that university libraries in Turkey have made and plan to make during the development process of AI technologies and applications, and to identify the services they have developed specific to the relevant period. The survey was carried out with the participation of 111 university library managers from 208 university libraries in Turkey. Through the analysis of the data, the status, knowledge, and awareness levels of university libraries regarding AI technologies and applications were determined, and measures and recommendations were presented to improve deficiencies and weaknesses. This research is the first and most comprehensive study conducted in Turkey by obtaining opinions and suggestions from university library managers on artificial intelligence. The research findings revealed that university libraries use AI applications such as ChatGPT, Gemini, and Grammarly to a certain extent; however, they have needs in developing institutional policies, enhancing personnel competencies, and planning related to AI. © 2024 University and Research Librarians Association (UNAK).

    Shooting a Water Slug Into an Air Column with and without Vent
    (Amer Soc Mechanical Engineers, 2025-07-20) Bozkus, Zafer; Dincer, Ali Ersin; Tijsseling, Arris S.; van de Ven, Fons
    Compressed air is used to shoot a single water slug into an upward sloping pipe with elbow and orifice at its upper end. The experiment concerns a 12 m long pipe of 0.1 m diameter connected to a 0.5 m3 air vessel. The 10 to 50 kg heavy slugs are initially at rest in the lower part of the system. Because the upper end is closed by a flange with orifice, the water slug is expected not to hit the upstream elbow. It causes - like a piston - a fast compression of the air column ahead of it. Sometimes the slug bounces back and forth, which results in a pressure oscillation of serious amplitude. Numerical simulations based on an elementary mathematical model are normally used to interpret the pressure measurements, not all of which are fully understood. Lessons learned are summarised, and suggestions for improved experiments and enhanced simulations are given. The research is of importance, for example, for steam lines where liquid condensates may collect in lower parts after power failure. Start-up of the system will then lead to rapid slug acceleration and potentially damaging impact on elbows, orifices, and machinery.

    Clean Energy Production and Decarbonization of Energy Sector With Floating Photovoltaic Systems
    (Institute of Physics, 2025-11-01) Bajc, T.; Ozgun, F.; Koca, K.; Karipoğlu, F.
    Floating photovoltaic systems (FPVS) offer several advantages over traditional land-based PV systems, which has contributed to a growing global interest in their deployment. Since the energy yields are strongly dependent on location and tilt angle of FPVS, this research focuses on the clean energy production and decarbonization potential of FPVS in Serbia and Türkiye for different water bodies, such are natural and artificial lakes and dams. The research is performed for the most appropriate lakes and dams, having in mind importance of the location, energy yields potential, distance from the electricity grid and main roads, environmental impact, water depth and land type quality. Tilt angles are analyzed in a range from 5 to 40°, and the optimal angle is depicted for selected locations. The highest energy yields for Türkiye were obtained for 30° tilt angle, while for Serbia it was 36°. The results showed that possible clean energy production in both countries reaches 15345 kWh of energy in total, while the yearly carbon emissions reduction for all selected locations goes up to 10.76 tCO<inf>2</inf>/year in total. Since the legal framework for the application of FPVS is not established yet in observed countries, these results contribute to the future development of legislation in the field of FPVS and encourage the stakeholders to invest in clean energy production. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.

    Offshore floating modular energy islands (FMEIs) represent a promising solution to meet growing global energy demands, while addressing challenges associated with conventional energy infrastructure. This paper explores key technological components underpinning the design, construction, and energy generation of FMEIs, with a focus on three core areas: energy generation systems, floating structures and construction methods. The first technological component focuses on energy generation systems, examining the technologies of offshore wind power, solar and wave energy, to maximise overall energy production, while also highlighting the challenges involved in integrating these technologies. The second section examines the support structure of offshore floating platforms, as well as the key role of mooring systems in ensuring structural integrity under challenging marine conditions. The importance of advanced monitoring and maintenance strategies for long-term viability is also discussed. The third technological component discusses modular construction, highlighting the material choices and associated construction challenges in building FMEIs. This review also includes case studies and ongoing projects that demonstrate the real-world application of these technologies. Through the integration of advanced renewable energy generation technologies, floating and mooring systems and modular construction methods, FMEIs offer a sustainable and innovative approach to offshore energy production. This paper provides an overview of FMEIs and contributes to advancing development in this emerging field. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.

    Modular Floating Energy Islands With Green Hydrogen Integration: Design of a Small-Scale P2x Scheme
    (Institute of Physics, 2025-11-01) Akpolat, A.N.; Cundeva, S.; Todorovic, J.; Rexhepi, V.; Okhay, O.; Bakon, T.; Borg, R.P.
    The climate crisis and rising carbon emissions make the integration of renewable energy systems into electricity grids worldwide inevitable. In this context, modular floating energy islands (MFEI) provide innovative solutions for hybrid systems with high renewable energy penetration. This study explores the simultaneous use of various renewable resources, such as solar, wind, tidal, and wave energy, through small-scale MFEI structures that can be situated in seas and lakes. Thanks to their modular design, these systems offer benefits like scalability, portability, and ease of maintenance, allowing for flexible and adaptive developments in the energy infrastructure. As highlighted in recent literature (e.g., the North Sea Wind Power Hub and EU H2Ocean projects), offshore structures for green hydrogen production support energy storage and carbon-free fuel conversion within the Power-to-X (P2X) framework. This study evaluates the potential of photovoltaic (PV)-supported hydrogen production in MFEI structures through numerical analyses. The results emphasize the strategic role of these structures in enhancing energy security, coastal protection, and reducing carbon emissions by producing significant amounts of hydrogen. This hydrogen can be used for various purposes, including re-electrification, industrial applications, heating, and agriculture. Future research should focus on real-time data optimization, AI-supported system management, and integrated hydrogen consumption scenarios. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.

    Design and Analysis of a Solar-Assisted Combined Cooling, Heating, and Power System for Smart Cities: Case Study From Doha
    (IGI Global, 2025-08-22) Akroot, A.; Almohammedi, A.A.; Talal, W.
    The rising demand for sustainable and energy-efficient solutions in urban areas has driven interest in renewable systems for smart cities. This chapter presents a solar-assisted combined cooling, heating, and power (SA-CCHP) system designed for Doha, Qatar, where high solar radiation and cooling needs prevail. Powered solely by a parabolic trough collector (PTC) field, the system delivers net power from 1200 kW in winter to 195 kW in summer, with cooling loads of ~2100-3400 kW and heating loads of ~90)00-14500 kW. Increasing the superheating degree at the ORC turbine inlet enhances power and heating but reduces cooling, while raising the pressure ratio (A) from 0.5 to 0.8 boosts net output and efficiency, cutting CO2 emissions from 0.22 to 0.13 kg/kWh. Overall energy efficiency rises from 85% to 90% and exergy efficiency from 76% to 78.5%, while costs decline from $40/hr to $36/hr, confirming both environmental and economic viability. The study demonstrates the feasibility of solar-powered CCHP systems as scalable models for achieving clean energy goals in smart cities. © 2026, IGI Global Scientific Publishing.

    Fully Flexible, Low-Cost, Environmentally Friendly Yarn-Based Inp/Ag Nw Photodetectors for UV-Visible Light Detection
    (SPIE, 2025-08-01) Savaş, M.; Akrema, A.; Ocal, S.K.; Erdem, T.
    We report the fabrication and investigate of a novel photodetector using a heterostructure of InP quantum dots (QDs) and silver nanowires (Ag NWs) incorporated into yarn. This device is simple, scalable, low-cost, flexible, and functions under ambient conditions. Ag NWs and red-emitting InP QDs were separately synthesized via chemical methods and mixed in a specific ratio to coat functional yarns, which were then knitted into fabrics. The photodetector benefits from the excellent electrical conductivity of Ag NWs and the strong optical absorption of InP QDs. It shows enhanced photoelectric response in both UV and visible regions. At 405 nm illumination, the device achieves a photoresponsivity of 5.8 mA W-1 and a detectivity of 2 × 1010 Jones-values comparable to or exceeding those of similar devices. The enhanced performance is attributed to efficient charge transfer enabled by favorable band alignment between Ag NWs and InP QDs, along with synergistic effects from nanostructure dimensionality and quantum confinement. The device's combination of flexibility, sensitivity, and cost-efficiency makes it a strong candidate for wearable UV-visible photodetectors. © 2025 SPIE. All rights reserved.

    Minimising the Cycle Time with Assembly Line Balancing and Worker Assignment: A Case Study in a Medical Device Manufacturer Company
    (ISRES Publishing, 2025-10-27) Kayser, A.; Sipahi, G.; Sevimli, O.; Toplu, N.; Turan, S.; Satic, U.
    In this research, we considered the mixed-model assembly line balancing and worker assignment problems of a medical device manufacturer in Türkiye. We combined these problems into a single integer programming model where multiple types of products can be assembled simultaneously on a single assembly line, and workers are assigned to workstations based on their abilities while ensuring the balance and efficiency of the assembly line. Our proposed approach seeks to minimise the cycle time and ability-based assignment costs on the assembly line. We used the Gurobi solver to find the optimal solution for the proposed problem. Our approach provides higher efficiency and results in a 76% increase in productivity without requiring additional work hours or workers. © 2025 Published by ISRES Publishing.

    Scheduling in Flexible Flow Shop Environments with Re-Entrant Jobs and Heterogeneous Workers
    (ISRES Publishing, 2025-10-27) Bekli, S.; Kayisoglu, B.
    In many industries, manufacturing is organized as a flexible flow shop (FFS), which has gotten the researchers' attention. The scheduling studies, particularly those on FFS scheduling, are concerned with homogeneous workers with the same skill set or heterogeneous workers who can only perform one specific type of operation on the production lines. Moreover, jobs are mainly assumed to go through an operation once. Yet, in real-life production, workers might have different skill sets with varying processing times. Furthermore, certain jobs may require revisiting the same machine multiple times, i.e., re-entrant jobs. We study an FFS environment with re-entrant jobs, considering worker flexibility. We propose a mixed integer linear programming model to find the optimal sequences of jobs to be processed by the multiskilled workers assigned to the production system, ensuring each re-entrant job waits for a predefined time window before reprocessing on the same operation. The objective of the model is to minimize makespan. We tested the proposed model on a dataset taken from a real production system of a PVC windows and doors production facility. © 2025 Published by ISRES Publishing.
