The current study offers a discrete-event simulation algorithm developed to reveal the effects of different maintenance work packages on the failure and the cost profiles of the mining systems. The algorithm is stochastic with two possible optimization criteria as maximizing system availability and minimizing maintenance cost for a given period. A numeric example is also provided to highlight how the effectiveness of a maintenance policy may differ with its content. In the example, 42 alternative maintenance policies were applied to an earthmover where corrective maintenance, preventive maintenance in regular inspections and opportunistic maintenance were located combinatorially for different inspection intervals. The total maintenance cost was dropped to $913,481 with an achievable production of 7,304 h for the optimal policy that included only corrective and opportunistic maintenance in the system-level, and excluded regular inspections.

Modeling and simulation of a maneuvering ship Pakkan, Sinan; Özgören, Mustafa Kemal; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2007) This thesis documents the studies conducted in deriving a mathematical model representing the dynamics of a maneuvering ship to be implemented as part of an interactive real-time simulation system, as well as the details and results of the implementation process itself. Different effects on the dynamics of ship motions are discussed separately, meaning that the effects are considered to be applied to the system one at a time and they are included in the model simply by the principle of superposition. The mo...
Real-time hardware-in-the-loop simulation of electrical machine systems using FPGAs Üşenme, Serdar; Dilan, R.A.; Dölen, Melik; Koku, Ahmet Buğra (2009-11-18) This study focuses on the development an integrated software and hardware platform that is capable of performing real-time simulation of dynamic systems, including electrical machinery, for the purpose of hardware-in-the-loop simulation (HILS). The system to be controlled is first defined using a block diagram editor. The defined model is then compiled and downloaded onto an FPGA (¿Field Programmable Gate Array¿) based hardware platform, which is to interface with the controller under test and carry out the...
Implementation of crossbar web service for interactive visualizations of biological networks Atakan , Ahmet; Atalay, Mehmet Volkan; Department of Computer Engineering (2020-9) Existing computational tools, resources, and services to assist experimental biomedical research lack data diversity and data connectivity and therefore, they are limited in helping to solve real world problems. Within the framework of CROssBAR project aiming for drug discovery, CROssBAR database (CROssBAR-DB) integrated diverse biomedical resources with the predictions of a comprehensive computing resource developed using machine learning and deep learning-based methods. It is crucial for the users to ...
Design, fabrication and implementation of a vibration based mems energy scavenger for wireless microsystems Sarı, İbrahim; Balkan, Raif Tuna; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2008) This thesis study presents the design, simulation, micro fabrication, and testing steps of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) based electromagnetic micro power generators. These generators are capable of generating power using already available environmental vibrations, by implementing the electromagnetic induction technique. There are mainly two objectives of the study: (i) to increase the bandwidth of the traditional micro generators and (ii) to improve their efficiency at low frequency environmental v...
Environmental applications of hyperspectral anomaly and target detection algorithms Soydan, Hilal; Karpuz, Celal; Department of Mining Engineering (2017) The objective of this thesis study is to understand the capacity of hyperspectral anomaly detection and target detection algorithms for contamination mapping, with a focus on developing a new methodology for environmental problems related to coal mining operations. Considering the data availability, specific chemical structure and reflectance properties as well as being one of the common contaminants in mining operations, hydrocarbon induced problems are studied for water and soil medium separately. Having ...
