Urban symbiosis through building integrated agriculture: Transforming vacant areas of a multi-storey carpark into an urban farm
Gönençen, Kaya Emre; Elias Özkan, Soofia Tahira; Department of Architecture (2024-7)
Demands of increasing population cause not only rapid urbanization and the absence of greenery in the urban context but also insufficiency and infertility of conventional agricultural spaces. Both the built environment and...
An approach to decomposability of a class of almost completely decomposable groups
Kocabıyık, Makbule; Solak, Ebru; Department of Mathematics (2024-6-27)
A torsion-free abelian group G is completely decomposable of finite rank if G is isomorphic to a finite direct sum of subgroups of Q and almost completely decomposable if G contains a completely decomposable subgroup R wit...
ADJOINT BASED AERODYNAMIC SHAPE OPTIMIZATION OF A MISSILE ENGINE INLET COVER
Özuzun, Arda; Tuncer, İsmail Hakkı; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2024-6-27)
This thesis addresses the aerodynamic shape optimization of a missile engine inlet cover, a component designed to prevent windmilling on the gas turbine engines during the gliding phase of the missiles. The adjoint-based o...
