In the literature, authors have made contributions in the area of partially compliant slider-crank (rocker) mechanisms possessing rigid joints that may cause backlash inherently. On contrary, fully compliant mechanisms offer no backlash which is a valuable property for the cases where high precision is required. In this paper, we proposed a fully compliant slider-crank mechanism that performs large stroke. Kinematic performance of the mechanism is investigated analytically. Dimensions of the mechanism are optimized to obtain maximum translational output, while keeping deflections of flexible hinges equal to each other and as small as possible. A design table displaying stroke, axis drift of the output segment, and critical stresses of compliant segments are presented. As an example, a compliant mechanism is designed by using rigid body replacement technique. Then, via nonlinear finite element analysis technique, analytical results are verified. Finally, a prototype is built to compare output stroke and axis drift with analytical approaches. The results of experiments verified that the theoretical approaches are consistent.

On the analysis and design of a novel fully compliant slider-crank mechanism Tanık, Çağıl Merve; Yazıcıoğlu, Yiğit; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2020) In the literature, authors have made contributions in the area of partially compliant slider-crank mechanisms those possess rigid joints that may cause backlash inherently. On contrary, fully compliant mechanisms offer no backlash which is a valuable property for the cases where high preciseness is required. In this paper, we proposed an original “fully” compliant slider-crank mechanism design. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study in the literature on a compliant slider-crank mechanism with...
Some remarks on vector-valued integration Kadets, Vladimir; Shumyatskiy, Boris; Shvidkoy, Roman; Zheltukhın, Kostyantyn; Tseytlin, Leonid (2002-02-01) The paper continues the study of the notion of Riemann–Lebesgue integral, which was introduced before by two of the authors. The result about the convexity of the limit set of integral sums is generalized to the case of weakly-compactly generated spaces. The notion of Riemann–Lebesgue integral is used to introduce new classes of Banach spaces. The properties of these new spaces are studied.
Comments on "The use of curl-conforming basis functions for the magnetic-field integral equation" - Reply Ergül, Özgür Salih (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2008-07-01) For original paper see O. Ergul et al., ibid., vol.54, no.7, p.1917-26. This article presents reply to the comments on 'The use of curl-conforming basis functions for the magnetic-field integral equation'.
Analysis of the physical properties of different types of neutron stars Taşkın, Mustafa Özgür; Kızıloğlu, Nilgün; Department of Physics (2005) This thesis is composed of three published articles. Each chapter is devoted to an article. In the first part the origin of some of the single radio pulsars with relatively low magnetic fields (B < 1e12 G) and with characteristic ages (tau) less than 1e7 years is questioned. We proposed that such pulsars might occur as a result of the disruption of high-mass X-ray binary systems after a second supernova explosion. In these binaries, mass accretion on to the surface of X-ray pulsars may lead to the decrease ...
Application of the theory of constraints to an elective course registration system Üstün, Pınar; Onay, Lamia Zeynep; Department of Business Administration (2010) The Theory of Constraints (TOC) is a holistic management philosophy put forward by Eliyahu Goldratt in 1984. The thinking process and improvement tools discussed in this theory are mainly geared to manufacturing environments, however their applicability to service environments has also been shown for private professional service organizations. This study demonstrates that the steps and principles of the TOC can also be applied to non-profit services, such as the elective course registration process describe...
