Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1Modeling and Simulation of Advanced Nuclear Reactors(IEEE Computer Society help@computer.org, 2013-11) Ablay, GünyazAdvanced nuclear power plants are currently being proposed with a number of various designs. However, there is a lack of modeling and control strategies to deal with load following operations. This research investigates a possible modeling approach for advanced nuclear power plants in order to provide an assessment way to the concept designs. The modeling approach covers linear and nonlinear reactor modeling and linear modeling of heat exchanger-turbine- generator systems. Numerical results are presented on an example molten-salt type nuclear power plant system to demonstrate the validity and effectiveness of the modeling approach. © 2013 IEEE. © 2014 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4Analytical Design of Linear Variable Capacitors With Shaped-Finger Comb-Drive Actuators(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018-05) Hah, DooyoungVariable capacitors have a broad usage in radio frequency (RF) circuits. Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology can provide variable capacitors with high quality factor and wide tuning range characteristics. One of the design goals for MEMS varactors has been linear capacitance- voltage (C-V) characteristics. To design a linear C-V varactor, a shaped-finger comb-drive actuator is proposed in this paper. The shaped-finger design method, originally developed to obtain linear wavelength-voltage relationships in a tunable optical filter, is modified in this work for a linear C-V varactor, which involves development of a new governing equation. Moreover, conformal mapping is employed in calculation of capacitances, making the whole design process almost all-analytical with the minimum usage of numerical analysis methods. Variable capacitors with the shaped-finger design show linearity factor (LF) - defined as the maximum deviation from the perfect linear relationship - as low as 0.4%, tremendously improved from that of the conventional constant-finger-gap devices (LF: 49.9%). The characteristics of the designed variable capacitor are further investigated through 3-D numerical analysis, and show LF better than 11.5% for the finger thickness in the range between 1 and 10 micrometers. Versatility of the design method is further demonstrated by design of a varactor with linear resonant frequency-voltage (f-V) characteristics for voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) applications. The developed analytical design method with shaped fingers can find a wide range of applications where comb-drive actuators are used. © 2018 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Article Citation - Scopus: 10Kaya Tutma Hendek Performansının 3-Boyutlu Kaya Düşme Analizleriyle Değerlendirilmesi: Akköy (Ürgüp) Örneği(TMMOB - Jeoloji Muhendisleri Odasi jmo@jmo.org.tr, 2019-12-15) Akin, Mutluhan; Dinçer, İsmail; Orhan, Ahmet H.; Ok, Ali Özgün; Akin, Muge K.; Topal, TamerRockfall ditches or areas can be constructed in order to protect against rockfalls in settlements that are in danger of rockfalls when the population density is not high. Nevertheless, in the design of such protection structures, essential site-specific engineering studies and analyzes are often not carried out appropriately. Therefore, rockfallditches are occasionally not capable of preventing rockfalls. Within the scope of this study, the performance of a 2 m-deep and 1 km-long rockfall ditch excavated at the upper elevation of touristic Akköy (Ürgüp) settlement in 2012 in order to prevent the entrance of falling rocks to the residential area was evaluated on the basis of 3-dimensional rockfall analyses. According to the rockfall risk classification, the settlement is under moderate rockfall risk. The digital surface model used in 3-dimensional rockfall analyses was generated by point cloud data obtained from photogrammetric images taken by unmanned aerial vehicle. During field observations, it was determined that the dimension of the previously fallen ignimbrite blocks could reach up to 2 m. On the other hand, the high persistency of discontinuities in the source zone indicates that the dimensions of the potential rockfall blocks may be large. As a result of the 3-dimensional rockfall analyses carried out in RocPro3D software, it was defined that the falling blocks are generally caught by the ditch excavated between the source zone and the settlement, but in some sections of the ditch those blocks may continue to roll over the rockfall ditch. Eventually, Akköy settlement is still partially under the danger of rockfalls. If the rockfall ditch is not periodically cleaned in the course of time, the extent of danger will enlarge with the decrease in the capacity of the trench. © 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
