Article Citation - WoS: 55Citation - Scopus: 65Neuro-Fuzzy Model Predictive Energy Management for Grid Connected Microgrids(MDPI, 2020-05-28) Ulutas, Ahsen; Altas, Ismail Hakki; Onen, Ahmet; Ustun, Taha SelimWith constant population growth and the rise in technology use, the demand for electrical energy has increased significantly. Increasing fossil-fuel-based electricity generation has serious impacts on environment. As a result, interest in renewable resources has risen, as they are environmentally friendly and may prove to be economical in the long run. However, the intermittent character of renewable energy sources is a major disadvantage. It is important to integrate them with the rest of the grid so that their benefits can be reaped while their negative impacts can be mitigated. In this article, an energy management algorithm is recommended for a grid-connected microgrid consisting of loads, a photovoltaic (PV) system and a battery for efficient use of energy. A model predictive control-inspired approach for energy management is developed using the PV power and consumption estimation obtained from daylight solar irradiation and temperature estimation of the same area. An energy management algorithm, which is based on a neuro-fuzzy inference system, is designed by determining the possible operating states of the system. The proposed system is compared with a rule-based control strategy. Results show that the developed control algorithm ensures that microgrid is supplied with reliable energy while the renewable energy use is maximized.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Beneficiation of Low-Grade Iron Ore Using a Dry-Roll Magnetic Separator and Its Modeling via Artificial Neural Network(Springer, 2025-02-24) Fariss, Abdourahman Hassan Brahim; Ibrahim, Ahmedaljaali Ibrahim Idrees; Ozdemir, Ali Can; Top, Soner; Kursunoglu, Sait; Altiner, MahmutThe beneficiation of low-grade iron ore (39.5% Fe-(T) grade) using a dry-roll magnetic separator was investigated. The ore was characterized using Mineral Liberation Analysis (MLA). It was determined that the ore was composed of iron oxide (goethite and hematite), quartz, chlorite, muscovite, plagioclase, and other minerals. The effect of particle size (PS, - 1 + 0.500 mm, - 0.500 + 0.300 mm, and - 0.300 + 0.125 mm), splitter position (SP, 43 degrees and 58 degrees), cleaning stage (CS, 1 and 2), conveyor speed (CoS, 3, 5, and 7 Hz), magnetic field strength (MFS, 0.2 T and 0.4 T) on the recovery of the magnetic product was investigated. Experimental results show that the product (- 1 + 0.500 mm) with the Fe-(T) grade of 67.67% can be obtained, but its recovery was not at an acceptable value (< 30%). Furthermore, the Fe-(T) grade of the product (- 0.500 + 0.300 and - 0.300 + 0.125 mm) could not reach satisfactory levels<bold>.</bold> The artificial neural network (ANN) method was conducted on the results of experimental studies. Three different training algorithms were employed for modeling, and their performance was assessed using statistical evaluation criteria. The results demonstrate that Bayesian Regularization (BR) algorithm exhibited better performance compared to others in predicting both Fe(T) grade and recovery rate during the testing phase. These findings support the notion that ANN algorithms can be a powerful modeling and prediction tool in the field of mineral processing.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 7A Combined Application of Two Soft Computing Algorithms for Weathering Degree Quantification of Andesitic Rocks(Elsevier, 2022-12) Koca, Tumay Kadakci; Koken, Ekin; Kadakci Koca, TümayUnderstanding the variations in physical and mechanical behavior of rock materials due to progressive weathering is vital to carry on time and cost-effective engineering projects. Up to date, soft computing algorithms have been established to quantify the weathering degree (WD) of various rocks due to better prediction performance and problem-solving capability. However, the complexity of the weathering process does not allow the use of a single weathering quantification model for a wide range of rock types. Therefore, this study aims to provide a practical, quantitative, and effective framework for predicting the WD of andesitic rocks. To fulfill the aims of this study, a wide range of cases were collected from the previous studies to establish a predictive model based on dry unit weight (gamma d), effective porosity (ne), and uniaxial compressive strength (UCS). Consequently, a combined application of fuzzy inference system (FIS) and artificial neural network (ANN) was introduced to assess the WD of the investigated andesitic rocks. The WD ratings were presented as four different weathering classes (from fresh (W0) to highly weathered (W3)). Since most soft computing algorithms are black-box models that cannot be efficiently utilized in any other study, an explicit neural network formulation was firstly developed for WD prediction in this study. As a result, the proposed formulation will provide a practical and straightforward assessment of WD for andesitic rocks. However, to improve the reliability and consistency of the proposed model, different datasets should be used in the explicit neural network formulation proposed.
