A new experimental apparatus, designed principally for a high sensitivity search for nu( --> mu(tau) oscillation, has been successfully constructed and made operational by the CHORUS Collaboration for the CERN-WA95 experiment. It consists of a large emulsion target, a scintillating fiber tracker system with optoelectronics read-out, an air-core magnet, a set of trigger hodoscopes, a calorimeter based on the lead/scintillating-fiber technique, and a muon spectrometer. The design, construction and performance of the entire apparatus and of the different detectors are described.

The trigger system of the CHORUS experiment van Beuzekom, MG; et. al. (1999-05-21) A new apparatus for detection of nu(mu) --> nu(tau) oscillation has been successfully constructed and operated by the CHORUS Collaboration for the CERN-WA95 experiment. The design, implementation and performance of the electronic trigger system is described. A trigger efficiency of 99% was measured for nu(mu) charged-current events and 90% for neutral-current events.
The ratios of energy losses through photoneutrino process in superstring inspired E-6 model and in the standard model Aydemir, A; Aydin, C; Sever, Ramazan (2001-03-14) In general E-6 inspired model which has two additional U(1) symmetries at the string scale whose one combination is a light enough vector boson Z(theta), we compute the contribution of Z(theta) to the gammae(-) --> e(-))over bar>nu scattering at the aim of calculating the energy loss. We find that the two U(1)'s must be combined at 90 degrees to have a significant contribution.
Computer-aided planning and design of manufacturing simulation experiments Özdemirel, Nur Evin; Köksal, Gülser (1996-09-01) An simulation has become a major tool in studying discrete manufacturing systems, experimental design issues have started to receive much attention. Although the importance of proper experimentation is often emphasized in the literature on discrete event simulation, it is neglected in most practical simulation studies. The main reason for this neglect is that the design and analysis of a simulation experiment require expertise in experimental design methodology as well as familiarity with traditional statis...
Nonlinear 3D Modeling and Vibration Analysis of Horizontal Drum Type Washing Machines Baykal, Cem; Ciğeroğlu, Ender; Yazıcıoğlu, Yiğit (2020-01-01) In this study, a nonlinear 3-D mathematical model for horizontal drum type washing machines is developed considering rotating unbalance type excitation. Nonlinear differential equations of motion are converted into a set of nonlinear algebraic equations by using Harmonic Balance Method (HBM). The resulting nonlinear algebraic equations are solved by using Newton’s method with arc-length continuation. Several case studies are performed in order to observe the effects of orientation angles of springs and damp...
Nonlinear modeling and vibration analysis of horizontal drum type washing machines Baykal, Cem; Yazıcıoğlu, Yiğit; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2019) Nonlinear two and three-dimensional dynamical models for horizontal drum type washing machines are developed considering rotating unbalance type excitation. Nonlinear differential equations of motion are converted into a set of nonlinear algebraic equations by using the Harmonic Balance Method (HBM). The resulting nonlinear algebraic equations are solved by using Newton’s method with arc-length continuation.
