We consider accurate simulations of metamaterial (MM) structures consisting of split- ring-resonators (SRRs) and thin wires (TWs). We employ electric-field integral equation (EFIE) to formulate the scattering problems involving these complicated structures. Accurate modelling of MMs translates into very large computational problems, which can be solved with the aid of advanced acceleration techniques, such as the multilevel fast multipole algorithm (MLFMA). We investigate various multilayer structures of SRRs as well as composite metamaterials (CMMs) constructed by the arrangements of SRR and TW arrays. In addition, we consider various disordering scenarios, where the unit cells are not placed perfectly and they are misaligned. This way, we investigate the electromagnetic properties of MMs when the arrays are defected. In this paper, we briefly report the accurate solutions of various real-life MM problems and present power transmission properties of these important structures.

Study of the Influence of Transition Metal Atoms on Electronic and Magnetic Properties of Graphyne Nanotubes Using Density Functional Theory
Alaei, Sholeh; Jalili, Seifollah; Erkoç, Şakir (Informa UK Limited, 2015-01-01)
Density functional theory calculations were used to study the adsorption of three transition metal atoms (Fe, Co, and Ni) on the external surface of two zigzag and two armchair graphyne nanotubes. The most stable position for the adsorption of all three metal atoms on all nanotubes is on the acetylenic ring. The metal atom remains in the plane of the acetylenic ring and makes six bonds with neighboring carbon atoms. Fe and Co complexes are magnetic and show different properties such as metal, semimetal, hal...
Study of heavy quarkonia spectra in the quark model
Takan, Taylan; Özpineci, Altuğ; Department of Physics (2012)
Conventional Heavy Quarkonium systems, Charmonium and Bottomonium, are believed to be composed of a heavy quark and anti-quark pair. These systems are investigated by di erent methods resulting from di erent approaches to Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), such as Lattice QCD, E ective Theories and Sum Rules. In this thesis we study the spectrum of Charmonium and Bottomonium using a non-relativistic Quark Model. Assuming one gluon exchange for the short distances and a linear confining potential for long distanc...
Application of Several Boundary Conditions for Bi-anisotropic Metamaterial Structures and Investigation of Electromagnetic Response
Uçkun, Savaş(2015-09-04)
—The effects of electromagnetic coupling on constitutive S-Parameters of bi-anisotropically designed metamaterial (MM) structure with several boundary conditions (PEC, PMC, UC) are analyzed. It is disclosed that in addition to the main electromagnetic coupling effect on the constitutive parameters of resonating MM structure, boundary conditions have an influence on this coupling effect because of the different imaging properties of the boundaries. The effects of electric and magnetic excitations on SRR and ...
Analysis of gold micro-beams with modified strain gradient theory
Dal, Hüsnü (2017-07-01)
Micro-beams are building blocks for many micro- and nano-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS/NEMS) and cannot accurately be modeled by classical continuum theories due to significant size effects at the length scales associated with these structures. Size effects can be taken into account by the so-called higher-order continuum theories. In this study, Euler-Bernoulli microbeams are analyzed with the Modified Strain Gradient Theory (MSGT), which extends the classical local continuum theories of grade one with ...
Investigation of missiles with strake fins and reduction of aerodynamic cross coupling effects by optimization
Usta, Engin; Tuncer, İsmail Hakkı; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2015)
Missiles with very low aspect ratio fins (also called strakes) are generally difficult to model by using engineering level aerodynamic methods and linear theories break due to complex nature of the flow adjacent to the mutual interference of the body and fin. Since fast prediction methods cannot accurately model vortex development along and downstream of very low aspect ratio fins, they have limited success for application to missiles with strake fins. Moreover, there is limited number of CFD studies for in...
