In this thesis, a process is developed for designing elastomeric vibration isolators in order to provide vibration isolation for sensitive equipment being used in ROKETSAN A.Ş.’s products. For this purpose, first of all, similar isolators are examined in the market. After that, appropriate elastomeric materials are selected and their temperature and frequency dependent dynamic properties are experimentally obtained. Parametric finite element model of the isolator is then constituted in ANSYS APDL using the properties of elastomeric materials and the conceptual design of the isolator. Then, according to design requirements, final design parameters of the vibration isolator are determined at the end of design iterations. In the next step, vibration isolator that was designed is manufactured using the elastomeric material chosen, by a local rubber company. Finally, design process is verified by comparing analysis and test results.

Development of a passive vibration isolation analysis and optimization software for mechanical systems
Baytemir, Ozan Yavuz; Ciğeroğlu, Ender; Özgen, Gökhan Osman; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2014)
In the design stage of a mechanical structure, the effects of vibration are taken into consideration as important design criteria. In order to eliminate the adverse effects of vibration sources, a direct intervention to the vibration source, structural reinforcement or the use of vibration isolators are encountered as the most popular vibration control methods. Among all, being compact, low cost, reliable and maintenance free, elastomeric passive vibration isolators with linear properties are examined withi...
Improvement of finite element model by using sine vibration test results of acommunication satellite
Çekiç, Abdulkadir; Yaman, Yavuz; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2021-2-15)
In this thesis, the vibration analysis of a communication satellite is performed,and the improvementof the finite element model by using vibration test results is presented. First, the satellite finite element model isgenerated using MSC/PATRAN and MSC/NASTRAN commercial software. With the natural frequency and frequency response analysis, the expected frequency values and response amplitudes in accelerometers arecalculated in vibration tests. The results obtained in the vib...
Experimental and computational models for simulating sound propagation and acoustic source localization within the lungs
Serhan, Açıkgöz; Özer, Mehmet Bülent; Thomas J, Royston; Hanson A, Mansy; Sandler, Rıchard H (2006-11-10)
An acoustic boundary element (BE) model for porous compliant material like the lung parenchyma is developed and validated theoretically and experimentally. This BE model is coupled with a source localization algorithm to predict the position of an acoustic source within a lung phantom. The BE model is also coupled with a finite element (FE) model to simulate the surrounding shell-like chest wall. Experimental studies validate the BE-based source localization algorithm and show that the same algorithm fails ...
Design of a Piezoelectric Ultrasonic Motor for Micro-Robotic Application
Akın, Tayfun; Başaran, Dilek; Erden, Abdülkadir (null; 2002-09-05)
In a piezoelectric ultrasonic motor, exciting at least two orthogonal mechanical vibration modes of the composite stator using single or orthogonal multiple high frequency AC signals generates a mechanical vibration on the stator surface. The rotor is pressed against the stator's surface and a rotation is produced by frictional interaction between the touching stator and rotor surfaces. Piezoelectric ultrasonic motors, which have superior characteristics like; high torque at low speed, frictional locking at...
Induced current magnetic resonance electrical impedance tomography (ICMREIT) with low frequency switching of gradient fields
Eroğlu, Hasan Hüseyin; Eyüboğlu, Behçet Murat; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2017)
In this thesis, it is aimed to investigate induced current magnetic resonance electrical impedance tomography (ICMREIT) starting from modeling and analysis to experimental validation. Forward and inverse problems of ICMREIT are formulated. A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) pulse sequence is proposed for the realization of ICMREIT using the slice selection (z) gradient coil of MRI scanners. Considering the proposed MRI pulse sequence, relationship between the low frequency (LF) MR phase and the secondary ma...
