In this paper, design of a novel deployable scissor-structural mechanism (SSM) for active camber and chord morphing airfoil has been presented. The mechanism is created via combination of one four-bar linkage and various scissor-like elements (SLEs). The theory behind scissor-like elements and hierarchical design procedure are adequately explained. Following that design procedure, a scissor-structural mechanism is created in order to satisfy the desired airfoil shapes, which have different camber lines with minimum structural error. It is also possible to modify the chord length by changing the properties and types of the used SLEs. Modifying the design parameters of used SLEs, without increasing the degree-of-freedom (DOF) of the mechanism, will result in infinite number of results. With the help of error definition and developed computerroutine, the best scissor-structural mechanism which satisfy the required tasks properly can be detected.

Design and construction of an interferometric setup for dynamic measurement of clearances inside plain bearings Jafari-Tabrizi, Atae; Dursunkaya, Zafer; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2017) In this work with the help of fiber optic interferometry an experimental framework is designed and constructed to dynamically measure micron-level clearances inside main journal bearing of an engine crankshaft, and the trajectory of its shaft. For this purpose, the crankshaft is rotated at lower speeds than its operating speeds. An electric motor is used to rotate the crankshaft, and there are no pistons and connecting rods connected to the crankpins. Measured clearances from multiple points of the bearing ...
Design of a tuned vibration absorber for a slender hollow cylindrical structure Aksoy, Tuğrul; Özgen, Gökhan Osman; Acar, Bülent (Informa UK Limited, 2020-09-01) In this paper, details of the design work for a tuned vibration absorber to be used on a hollow cylindrical structure is presented. The vibration problem is of resonant type and the tuned vibration absorber is designed to suppress the displacement vibration response of the free end of the slender hollow structure dominated by the contribution of its lowest transverse vibration modes. The structure is modeled using a commercial finite element software. Finite element model of the structure is verified using ...
Design of an interleaved PWM rectifier for AC locomotives and implementation of its laboratory prototype Uğur, Mesut; Ermiş, Muammer; Çadırcı, Işık; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2015) This research work is devoted to the design, and prototype implementation of a single-phase, unity power factor, Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) Rectifier for use in traction converters of AC locomotives. The PWM Active Rectifier is supplied from a front-end transformer, with two isolated secondary windings. The associated power stage is composed of two single-phase, H-bridge voltage-source converters, which are interleaved via a common DC link. Interleaved connection of converters is used to reduce the line cu...
Design and analysis of a hybrid trailing edge control surface of a fully morphing unmanned aerial vehicle wing Tunçöz, İlhan Ozan; Yaman, Yavuz; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2015) In this thesis, the design and analysis of a hybrid trailing edge control surface of a fully morphing unmanned aerial vehicle wing having the ability to perform both camber and decamber morphings were conducted. The design of the control surface was done by CATIA V5-6R2012 package program. Two distinct designs, so-called open cell and closed cell designs were initially analyzed via Finite Element Method by using the commercial software ANSYS Workbench v14.0 in in-vacuo condition. Several trade-off studies i...
Design and simulation of an integrated active yaw control system for road vehicles Tekin, Goekhan; Ünlüsoy, Yavuz Samim (2010-01-01) In this paper, design methodology and simulation results of an active yaw control system For road vehicles arc presented. The main objectives of the yaw control system arc to estimate the desired yaw behaviour of file vehicle according to the demand of file driver by means of a two degree-of-freedom vehicle model and track this desired yaw rate while considering vehicle steerability parameters. Based on vehicle yaw rate error and vehicle sideslip angle, the controller system applies brake torques to individ...
