The aim of this study is to develop a model for monitoring the technical maturity of the aircraft which is a multidisciplinary and complex product, throughout its lifecycle. Problematic has been created from common challenges seen in the aircraft development project in Turkey. Solutions have been sought for the deficiencies experienced in the monitoring of technical maturity at the platform level. The conceptual framework was examined existing maturity models were found and current practices were discussed, respectively. Then, hypotheses and supportive model were created. The model was tried to be verified by interviews with experienced personnel who worked in different phases of aircraft development lifecycle in both Customer and Contractor sides. In the conclusion, other important and workable issues that are not included in the model have been highlighted.

Separation simulation for helicopter external stores and generation of safe separation envelopes Kapulu, Özge; Tekinalp, Ozan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2015) In many aerospace applications, simulations are used to predict the behavior of the flight vehicle and reduce the number of flight tests required. In this thesis modeling and development of separation simulation tool for helicopter external stores is carried out. Detailed explanations of mathematical modeling, procedure of store separation analysis and collision detection approach from flight dynamics point of view are presented. The nonlinear mathematical model of armed configuration of Black Hawk helicopt...
Small Response Surface Designs for Metamodel Estimation Batmaz, İnci (Elsevier BV, 2003-01-01) The primary objective of this study is to provide the novice researchers in simulation metamodeling with guidance on how to use small designs for metamodel estimation especially when cost effectiveness is a concern. This study was carried out in three phases: First, a group of second-order small designs were evaluated with respect to various criteria. Next, the metamodel of a time-shared computer system was estimated using these designs. Finally, the predictive capabilities of these small designs in giving ...
Project Portfolio Management Software Use in Construction Industry Demirçeken, Orçun; Keskin, Başak; Sönmez, Rifat (2016-06-25) In recent years, a variety of software alternatives and capabilities have been made available for project and portfolio management (PPM). However, very little research has focused on the use of project and portfolio management software in the construction industry. Degree of adoption of PPM software and the reasoning behind these selections may vary among contractors, as each project’s unique situation may have an impact on the contractor’s decision. The objective of this research is to determine the curren...
Line-of-sight stabilization of a gimbaled mechanism under passive base isolation Kandemir, Kutlu Demir; Akmese, Alper; Yazıcıoğlu, Yiğit (2014-01-01) Line-of-sight stabilization is an important concept for aerospace applications utilizing gimbaled imaging systems. A widely used method for protecting the line-of-sight stabilization system from the disturbing effects of the base vibrations is to mount it on passive vibration isolators. However, these isolators may interact with gimbal controller and drastically limit the stabilization performance. This work deals with line-of-sight stabilization problem in aerospace structures by focusing on the parameters...
Automatic Mesh Generator Integrated Missile Design Tool Development Köseömür, Oğuz Ziya; Baran, Özgür Uğraş (null; 2019-09-20) In this study, a software that is utilized after the pre-design phase of the missile design is presented. This software consists of computational domain modeller and multi-block structured mesh generator. Geometrical design variables of the missile used in the software are based on Missile DATCOM and the presented software eliminates the time consumed between the preliminary design and the CFD analysis by automating the computational domain generation. In order to model the different orientations of the fin...
