    TROIA adaptive optics system for DAG Telescope
    (SPIE, 2020-12-13) Keskin, Onur; Jolissaint, Laurent; Bouxin, Audrey; Yeşilyaprak, Cahit
    This 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.

    A flexible adaptive optics concept for general purpose high angular resolution science on the DAG 4m telescope
    (SPIE-Int Soc Optical Engineering, 2018) Jolissaint, Laurent; Bouxin, Audrey; Gökay, Ulaş Sabahattin; Keskin, Onur; Rigaut, Francois; Yeşilyaprak, Cahit
    Thanks to the availability of high actuator density deformable mirrors (ALPAO 468 DM), the high versatility of the pyramid wavefront sensor and above all, the venue of essentially no noise EMCCD detectors, it becomes possible to fully adapt the degree of correction of an adaptive optics system for a given guide star brightness and atmospheric condition. Indeed, when the conditions are very good, the high actuator density of the DM allows to reach a high Strehl by using all the modes, and when the conditions are less favorable, the spatial sampling, i. the number of modes, and the sensitivity of the detector allows to maximize the Strehl beyond what would be possible with a classical, frozen SH-WFS based system. Beside, oversampling the detector allows to relax the specification on the pupil images given by the pyramid on the detector, which in turn relaxes the pyramid prism manufacturing specifications. We are now designing an AO system for the DAG 4 m telescope that will allow, on the same system, ExAO as well as low order improved seeing observations. This article reports on the AO performance analysis, the final optical design and the design of the double prism achromatic pyramid.

    End-effector trajectory control in a two-link flexible manipulator through reference joint angle values modification by neural networks
    (Sage Publications, 2006-02) Öke, Gülay; İstefanopulos, Yorgo
    The basic difficulty in the control of flexible link manipulators stems from the fact that the link deflections cannot be controlled directly. Since the number of control inputs, applied by the actuators, is less than the total number of variables to be controlled, control approaches aiming at the suppression of deflections and vibrations are generally insufficient. Another possible approach is to determine new joint trajectories to minimize the error of the end-effector in the operational space. In this paper, a neural network is designed to compute incremental changes for the reference values of the joint angles to achieve successful tip tracking in the operational space. Tip position errors in the x- and y-directions are utihzed as inputs to the neural network. The cost function, which is minimized in training the neural network, is also chosen as the sum of squares of the tip position error in both directions. Joint angle control is provided by a PD controller. Simulations are carried out to evaluate the performance of the neural-network-based trajectory tracking method, and the results are depicted in both joint and operational spaces.
