CMS very forward calorimeter is based on a quartz fibre technology. The calorimeter prototype composed of two longitudinal segments was tested at CERN in 1996, We present the test beam data analysis of this prototype. It was shown that the mean values of responses for pions and electrons of the same energy could be equalised using the appropriate ratio of calibration constants for longitudinal segments. The beam test data were used to simulate the calorimeter response to hadron jets.

Energy resolution and the linearity of the CMS forward quartz fibre calorimeter pre-production-prototype (PPP-1)
Ayan, AS; et. al. (IOP Publishing, 2004-12-01)
The first pre-production-prototype (PPP-I) of the quartz fibre calorimeter of the CMS detector has been tested at CERN. The calorimeter consists of quartz fibres embedded in an iron matrix. Results are presented on the energy resolution and on the signal uniformity of the prototype for electrons and pion's and the signal uniformity and linearity.
Alignment of the CMS tracker with LHC and cosmic ray data
Chatrchyan, S.; et. al. (IOP Publishing, 2014-06-01)
The central component of the CMS detector is the largest silicon tracker ever built. The precise alignment of this complex device is a formidable challenge, and only achievable with a significant extension of the technologies routinely used for tracking detectors in the past. This article describes the full-scale alignment procedure as it is used during LHC operations. Among the specific features of the method are the simultaneous determination of up to 200 000 alignment parameters with tracks, the measurem...
Numerical modelling of contracted sharp crested weirs /
Duru, Aysel; Altan Sakarya, Ayşe Burcu; Kökpınar, M. Ali; Department of Civil Engineering (2014)
Sharp crested weirs and gates are flow measurement structures which are frequently used for discharge measurements in channels and laboratories. In this thesis, numerical modelling technique was used in the solution of two flow measurement problems, namely contracted sharp crested weirs (Problem 1) and combined weir and gate system (Problem 2). The numerical simulation of flow cases having similar conditions with the experiments from the previous studies is performed for both Problem 1 and 2. The basic flow...
Transient Stability Enhancement of the Power System Interconnected with Wind Farm Using Generalized Unified Power Flow Controller with Simplex Optimized Self-Tuning Fuzzy Damping Scheme
Vural, A. M.; Bayindir, K. C. (2012-07-01)
Due to increasing penetration of wind power into traditional grid, co-working of synchronous generators with wind turbines is gaining attention in terms of system stability. This paper deals with the transient stability enhancement of such systems by generalized unified power flow controller (GUPFC) having grid frequency switching quasi multi-pulse converters. Besides independent real and reactive power flow control capability of the two series converters, one series converter is commissioned to damp synchr...
First principles investigation of hydrogen storage in intermetallic systems
Kınacı, Alper; Aydınol, Mehmet Kadri; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2007)
The design and production of efficient metal-hydrides for hydrogen storage is a long standing subject. Over the years, many different types of intermetallic hydride systems were studied and some of them came out to be operable. However, none of them meet all the storage criteria perfectly. In this study, total energies, hydrogen storage capacity and stability of AB (A = Al, Be, Cu, Fe, Ni, Sb, V and B = Ti) type intermetallics were investigated with the goal of spotting a potential hydrogen storage material...
