AN INTERFEROMETRIC TECHNIQUE FOR MEASURING MICRON LEVEL CLEARANCES FILLED WITH A LUBRICANT

2010-10-20
The aim of this study is to develop an interferometric technique to measure micron level clearances occurring in small piston-cylinder arrangements; such as hermetically sealed compressors. A Cartesian model of the piston cylinder arrangement is manufactured and lateral and vertical motions are generated via a step motor, and micrometers, respectively, to simulate the piston motion and the change of clearance during the motion. Experiments are conducted in air and a lubricant. Measurements show the important effect of surface waviness of the mirror and the effect of the motion of the carriage at micron level measurements.

A sequential classification algorithm for autoregressive processes
Otlu, Güneş; Candan, Çağatay; Çiloğlu, Tolga; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2011)
This study aims to present a sequential method for the classification of the autoregressive processes. Different from the conventional detectors having fixed sample size, the method uses Wald’s sequential probability ratio test and has a variable sample size. It is shown that the suggested method produces the classification decisions much earlier than fixed sample size alternative on the average. The proposed method is extended to the case when processes have unknown variance. The effects of the unknown pro...

Çakır, Murat Perit; Girisken, Yener; Yurdakul, Dicle (2018-01-01)
Purpose This study aims to explore the plausibility of the functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) methodology for neuromarketing applications and develop a neurophysiologically-informed model of purchasing behavior based on fNIRS measurements.
A Microbolometer detector based on a sol-gel technology
Dervişoğlu, Özgecan; Akın, Tayfun; Durucan, Caner; Department of Micro and Nanotechnology (2013)
The objective of this study is to develop a high performance bolometric material for microbolometers. The bolometric material to be developed was chosen as vanadium oxide due to its high temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR), low 1/f noise performance, and read out integrated circuit (ROIC) compatible resistivity. Among various deposition techniques, sol-gel method was decided to be implemented because of its various advantages such as simpler instrumentation, attainability of good chemical homogeneit...
A methodology for lining design of circular mine shafts in different rock masses
Öztürk, Hasan (2016-09-01)
In this study, the finite element numerical modelling of 2D shaft sections in a Hoek-Brown medium are carried out in a non-hydrostatic stress state in an attempt to predict pressures developing around mine shafts. An iterative process of applying support pressure until observing no failure zone around the shaft is used to simulate the required lining support pressure for different shaft models. Later, regression analysis is carried out to find a generic shaft pressure equation representing the rock mass and...
