KISS (Kinematic Support System) is a locally developed gait analysis system at Middle East Technical University (METU), and the performance of the system was evaluated before as a whole. However, such evaluations do not differentiate between the efficacy of the data acquisition system and the model-based gait analysis methodology. In this thesis, kinematic results of the KISS system will be compared with those of the Ankara University based commercial VICON (Oxford Metrics Ltd., Oxford, UK) system, in view of evaluating the performance of data acquisition system and the gait analysis methodology separately. This study is expected to provide guidelines for future developments on the KISS system.

Optimal external configuration design of missiles
Tanıl, Çağatay; Platin, Bülent Emre; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2009)
The main area of emphasis in this study is to investigate the methods and technology for aerodynamic configuration sizing of missiles and to develop a software platform in MATLAB® environment as a design tool which has an ability of optimizing the external configuration of missiles for a set of flight requirements specified by the user through a graphical user interface. A genetic algorithm based optimization tool is prepared by MATLAB is expected to help the designer to find out the best external geometry ...
A real time test setup design and realization for performance verification of controller designs for unmanned air vehichles
Küreksiz, Funda; Platin, Bülent Emre; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2008)
In this thesis, a test platform based on real-time facilities and embedded software is designed to verify the performance of a controller model in real time. By the help of this platform, design errors can be detected earlier and possible problems can be solved cost-effectively without interrupting the development process. An unmanned combat air vehicle (UCAV) model is taken as a plant model due to its importance in current and future military operations. Among several autopilot modes, the altitude hold mod...
Structural Optimization Using ANSYS
Panayırcı, H. Murat; Oral, Süha; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2006)
This study describes the process of performing structural optimization using ANSYS. In the first part, the general concepts in optimization and optimization algorithms for different type of optimization problems are covered. Also finite element method is introduced briefly in this part. In the second part, important definitions in structural optimization are mentioned. Then the optimization methods available in ANSYS are explained with their theories. Necessary steps to perform optimization with ANSYS are d...
Development of an educational CFD software for two dimensional incompressible flows
Nakiboğlu, Güneş; Sert, Cüneyt; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2007)
The main purpose of this research is to develop a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software to be used as an educational tool in teaching introductory level fluid mechanics and CFD courses. The software developed for this purpose is called Virtual Flow Lab. It has a graphical user interface (GUI) that enables basic pre-processing, solver parameter and boundary condition setting and post-processing steps of a typical CFD simulation. The pressure-based solver is capable of solving incompressible, laminar, s...
Global urban localization of an outdoor mobile robot using satellite images
Doğruer, Can Ulaş; Koku, Ahmet Buğra; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2009)
In this dissertation, the mapping of outdoor environments and localization of a mobile robot in that setting is considered. It is well known that in the absence of a map or precise pose estimates, localization and mapping is a coupled problem. However, in this dissertation this problem is decoupled in to two disjoint steps; mapping and localization on the acquired map. First the images of the outdoor environment is downloaded from a website such as Google Earth and then these images are processed by utilizi...
