Optimization of the seismic isolation parameters for bridges
Dicleli, Murat; Amiri, Shahin Nayyeri (null; 2007-11-29)
Köprülerde kullanılan deprem izolatörleri, genellikle çift doğrusal yük-deplasman eğrileriyle modellenir. Bu çalışmada, deprem izolatörlerinde oluşan yük ve deplasmanı asgariye indirmek için, sismik izolasyon sistemini tanımlayan parametrelerden karakteristik mukavemetin optimizasyonunun yapılması hedeflenmiştir. Bu amaçla, öncelikle deprem izolatörlerinin optimum deplasman ve kuvvet değerlerini etkileyen parametreler belirlenmiştir. Bu çalışmada göz önüne alınan parametreler, köprü alt yapı rijitliği, sönü...
Optimization of vibration characteristics of a radar antenna structure
Baran, İsmet; Özgen, Gökhan Osman; Ciğeroğlu, Ender; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2011)
Radar antenna structures especially array antennas which are integrated onto structures of aerial vehicles are subject to dynamic structural and aerodynamic loads. Due to occurrences of these dynamic loads there will be certain dynamic deformations which affect the antenna’s performance in an adverse manner. The influence of deformations and vibrations are important on array antenna structures, since they cause a change in orientation of elements of the phased array antenna which affects the gain of the ant...

OPTIMIZATION OF COMPOSITE BOLTED JOINT DESIGN
ANKARA, AO; DARA, BG (1994-06-01)
An investigation for the development of an interactive computer program for the assessment of strength of a single fastener composite joint in single shear was carried out. Database from previous experimental programs and design sources was evaluated for the establishment of the program. Some experiments were also done with single shear bolted carbon fiber reinforced composite laminates. The suggested computer program models the joint behavior by considering the laminates as homogeneous plates with represen...
Optimization of physical parameters of an underactuated quadrupedal robot
Karagoz, Osman Kaan; Ankaralı, Mustafa Mert (2018-01-01)
In this paper, we present the comparison of different optimization algorithms that are used to optimize the parameters of a simulated legged robotic platform. We compare the results obtained by applying different algorithms on the same model and show the relative advantages and disadvantages of these algorithms. The tested algorithms are Particle Swarm Optimization, Binary Coded Genetic Algorithm, Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfrab-Shannon Algorithm and Method of Zoutendijk. We showed that the globally optimal param...
