Yayın A global optimal control methodology and its application to a mobile robot model(Elsevier B.V., 2016) Dinçmen, ErkinA global optimal control algorithm is developed and applied to an omni-directional mobile robot model. The aim is to search and find the most intense signal source among other signal sources in the operation region of the robot. In other words, the control problem is to find the global extremum point when there are local extremas. The locations of the signal sources are unknown and it is assumed that the signal magnitudes are maximum at the sources and their magnitudes are decreasing away from the sources. The distribution characteristics of the signals are unknown, i.e. the gradients of the signal distribution functions are unknown. The control algorithm also doesn't need any position measurement of the robot itself. Only the signal magnitude should be measured via a sensor mounted on the robot. The simulation study shows the performance of the controller.Yayın Integrated opto-dynamic modeling of the 4-m DAG telescope image quality performance(SPIE-Int Soc Optical Engineering, 2016) Zago, Lorenzo; Guex, Benjamin; Yeşilyaprak, Cahit; Yerli, Sinan Kaan; Keskin, OnurThe Turkish DAG 4-m telescope is currently through the final design stage. It is to be located on a 3170 m mountain top in Eastern Anatolia. The telescope will be a state-of-The art device, alt-Az mount with active primary and adjustable secondary and tertiary mirrors. Its optics design is specially aimed at being compatible with advance adaptive optics instrumentation. The ultimate performance of such a telescope results of multiple concurrent effects from many different components and active functions of the complex system. The paper presents a comprehensive integrated (end-To-end) model of the telescope, comprising in one computational sequence all structural, electrodynamics and oactive optics performance that produce the image quality at the focal plane. The model is entirely programmed in Matlab/Simulink and comprises a finite element model of structure and mirrors, dynamics modal reduction, deformation analyses of structural and optical elements, active optics feedback control in the Zernike modal space.Yayın Status of the Focal Plane Instrumentation (FPI) Project of the 4 m DAG Telescope(SPIE, 2016-08-09) Keskin, Onur; Yerli, Sinan Kaan; Yeşilyaprak, Cahit; Güver, Tolga; Aliş, Sinan; Yelkenci, Filiz Korhan; Güçsav, Bülent Burak; Arabacı, Mehtap Özbey; Erol, AyşeDAG (Eastern Anatolia Observatory in Turkish) will be the newest and largest (4m) observatory of Turkey in both optical (VIS) and near-infrared (NIR) Owith its robust observing site infrastructure. The telescope is designedOto house 2 Nasmyth platformes which will be dedicated to NIR and VIS observations. A collaboration has recently been established among four Turkish universities including FMV Isik University (for adaptive optics systems), Middle East Technical University (fort measurement, test and calibration purposes), Istanbul University (for new technology instruments, e.g. MKIDs) and as the coordinator Ataturk University (for obtaining NIR and VIS instruments). In this paper the status of the recently approved FPI project and its aims are presented and possible collaboration opportunities are emphasized.Yayın Turkey's next big science project: DAG the 4 meter telescope(SPIE-INT Soc Optical Engineering, 2014) Keskin, Onur; Yeşilyaprak, Cahit; Yerli, Sinan Kaan; Zago, Lorenzo; Jolissaint, LaurentThe DAG (Turkish for Eastern Anatolia Observatory) 4-m telescope project has been formally launched in 2012, being fully funded by the Government of Turkey. This new observatory is to be located on a 3170 m altitude ridge near the town of Erzurum in Eastern Anatolia. First light is scheduled for late 2017. The DAG team's baseline design of the telescope consists of a Ritchey-Chretien type with alt-az mount, a focal length of 56 m and a field of view up to 30 arcmin. Multiple instruments will be located at the Nasmyth foci. The optical specifications of the telescope are set by DAG team for diffraction limited performance with active and adaptive optics. Modern mirror control technologies will allow defining in a most cost effective way the figuring requirements of the optical surfaces: the low order figuring errors of the combined optical train constituted of M1-M2-M3 are defined in terms of Zernike coefficients and referred to the M1 surface area. The high order figuring errors are defined using the phase structure functions. Daytime chilling of the closed enclosure volume and natural ventilation through suitable openings during observations will be used to ensure optimal mirror and dome seeing. A design of a ground layer adaptive optics (GLAO) subsystem is developed concurrently with the telescope. In this paper, main design aspects, the optical design and expected performance analysis of the telescope will be presented.Yayın The design of an adaptive optics telescope: the case of DAG(SPIE, 2016-07-27) Jolissaint, Laurent; Keskin, Onur; Zago, Lorenzo; Yerli, Sinan Kaan; Yeşilyaprak, Cahit; Mudry, Emeric; Lousberg, Grégory P.In this paper, we describe in detail the optical design of DAG, a new 4 m telescope for Turkey. DAG is an "adaptive optics friendly" telescope, in a sense that each design decision is taken considering the potential impact on the AO performance (vibrations, static aberrations etc.) The objective is to make this telescope fully ready for AO at first light. It is designed as a Ritchey-Chretien combination, 56 m focal length, with Nasmyth foci only, and active optics. Its total RMS error is expected to be 45 nm up to Zernike mode 78, and 26 nm for the higher, non AO corrected modes. A final design optimization has been done by the telescope manufacturers, demonstrating that our AO-based requirements can be satisfied, without much difficulty.Yayın Automatic modulation classification for mimo systems using fourth-order cumulants(IEEE, 2012) Mühlhaus, Michael S.; Öner, Mustafa Mengüç; Dobre, Octavia Adina; Jkel, Holger U.; Jondral, Friedrich K.Automatic classification of the modulation type of an unknown communication signal is a challenging task, with applications in both commercial and military contexts, such as spectrum surveillance, cognitive radio, and electronic warfare systems. Most of the automatic modulation classification (AMC) algorithms found in the literature assume that the signal of interest has been transmitted using a single antenna. In this paper, a novel AMC algorithm for multiple input multiple output (MIMO) signals is proposed, which employs fourth-order cumulants as features for classification. First, perfect channel state information (CSI) is assumed. Subsequently, a case of more practical relevance is considered, where the channel matrix is unknown and has to be estimated blindly by employing independent component analysis (ICA). The performance of the proposed classification algorithm is investigated through simulations and compared with an average likelihood ratio test (ALRT) which can be considered as optimum in the Bayesian sense, but has a very high computational complexity.Yayın TROIA adaptive optics system for DAG Telescope(SPIE, 2020-12-13) Keskin, Onur; Jolissaint, Laurent; Bouxin, Audrey; Yeşilyaprak, CahitThis paper presents the specifications of TROIA-TuRkish adaptive Optics system for Infrared Astronomy system, the science rationale for these specifications, and description of the site technical and environmental conditions to be taken into account in the adaptive optics (AO) system design for the Eastern Anatolia Observatory-DAG telescope. With it's 468 actuators, EMCCD camera, and the pyramid wavefront sensor configuration; TROIA is able to adapt the degree of correction to a given guide star (GS) brightness during observations. The high actuator density of TROIA AO system will allow DAG to perform astronomical observations at ExAO performances.Yayın Numerical investigation of the effect of radial lip seal geometry on sealing performance(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2018) Tok, Görkem; Parlar, Zeynep; Temiz, VedatSealing elements are often needed in industry and especially in machine design. With the change and development of machine technology from day to day, sealing elements show continuous development and change in parallel with these developments. Many factors influence the performance of the sealing elements such as shaft surface roughness, radial force, lip geometry etc. In addition, the radial lip seals must have a certain pre-load and interference in order to provide a good sealing. This also affects the friction torque. Researchers are developing new seal designs to reduce friction losses in mechanical systems. In the presented study, the effect of the lip seal geometry on sealing performance will be examined numerically. The numerical model created for this purpose will be verified with experimental data firstly. In the numerical model, shaft and seal will be modeled as hyper-elastic in 2D and 3D. NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber) as seal material will be analyzed for the rotating shaft state at constant speed by applying a uniform radial force.Yayın Mechanical and thermal modeling of orthogonal turn-milling operation(Elsevier Science BV, 2017) Karagüzel, Umut; Bakkal, Mustafa; Budak, ErhanTurn-milling is a relatively new machining technology which is performed for cutting of symmetrical or non-symmetrical rotational parts. To improve productivity, determination of cutting parameters in turn-milling is crucial. However, experimental approach is costly, hence it is important to develop predictive models, especially analytical models, for improved process outputs such as cutting force, MRR, cutting temperature etc. In this study, cutting forces, part quality, MRR, cutting temperatures are modeled for orthogonal turn-milling operation. The developed models are verified by experiments. The results show that the eccentricity parameter in turn-milling has a significant effect on process outputs.Yayın Adaptive extremum seeking scheme for ABS control(IEEE, 2014) Dinçmen, ErkinA sliding mode based extremum seeking algorithm is applied to the ABS control problem where the optimum slip ratio is searched online for maximum braking force in unknown road conditions. By making the parameter of the search algorithm adaptive, an adaptive extremum seeking scheme is proposed to improve the behavior of the controlled system around the optimum operating point. Simulation study is presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the methodology.
