Multistage launch vehicle design with thrust profile and trajectory optimization /
Civek Coşkun, Ezgi; Özgören, Mustafa Kemal; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2014)
In the frame of this thesis, a Matlab® based design tool utilizing a general purpose optimal control solver GPOPS-II® was developed for the optimization of ascent trajectories of multistage launch vehicles. This tool can be utilized both for preliminary mission design of an existing launch vehicle and conceptual design of a new launch vehicle. In the preliminary mission design of an existing launch vehicle, maximizing payload mass is a very common performance measure. Therefore, a trajectory optimization co...
An Approach for System Identification in Unmanned Surface Vehicles
Erunsal, Izzet Kagan; Ahiska, Kenan; Kumru, Murat; Leblebicioğlu, Mehmet Kemal (2017-10-21)
In this study, a system identification methodology is introduced to determine the model parameters of unmanned surface vehicles. The proposed identification scheme is based on sequencing the experiments according to their capabilities to identify the model parameters. In each experiment, the parameters to be found are updated and the results are validated before ascertaining the final value. A procedure to complete the identification work in an experiment, namely the required post-processing, the optimizati...
Evaluation of Feature Channels for Correlation Filter Based Visual Object Tracking in Infrared Spectrum
Gündoğdu, Erhan; SOLMAZ, Berkan; Koç, AYKUT; HAMMOUD, RI; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın (2016-07-01)
Correlation filters for visual object tracking in visible imagery has been well-studied. Most of the correlation-filter-based methods use either raw image intensities or feature maps of gradient orientations or color channels. However, well-known features designed for visible spectrum may not be ideal for infrared object tracking, since infrared and visible spectra have dissimilar characteristics in general. We assess the performance of two state-of-the-art correlation-filter-based object tracking methods o...
Robust parameter design of products and processes with an ordinal categorical response using random forests
Gülbudak Dil, Seçil; Köksal, Gülser; Department of Industrial Engineering (2018)
In industrial organizations, manufacturers aim to achieve target product performance with minimum variation. For that reason, finding optimal settings of product and process design parameters that make it possible to consistently achieve target product performance is an important design problem. In this study, we propose an alternative method to solve this problem for the case of an ordinal categorical product/process response. The method utilizes Random Forest (RF) for modelling mean and variance of the re...
Planning unmanned aerial vehicle's path for maximum information collection using evolutionary algorithms
Ergezer, Halit; Leblebicioğlu, Mehmet Kemal (2011-01-01)
Path planning is a problem of designing the path the vehicle is supposed to follow in such a way that a certain objective is optimized. In our study the objective is to maximize collected amount of information from Desired Regions (DR), meanwhile flying over the Forbidden Regions is avoided. In this paper, the path planning problem for single unmanned air vehicle (UAV) is studied with the proposal of novel evolutionary operators; Pull-to-Desired-Region (PTDR), Push-From-Forbidden-Region (PFFR), Pull-to-Fini...
