A new continuum approach to micro-mechanics of short fiber composites yielded two separate methods of estimating the apparent interfacial shear strength and fiber orientation efficiency. The methods exploit the compilation of the effects of fiber length distribution and interfacial shear strength on strengthening efficiency into a function of strain. The In-Built Method derives a unique combination of apparent interfacial shear strength and fiber orientation efficiency being able to reproduce the experimental stress-strain curve of a short fiber reinforced composite with a very low residual standard deviation. The Boundary Method accomplishes rapid interfacial shear strength screening in materials selection by constructing and utilizing the proposed selection chart. (C) Koninklijke Brill NV, Leiden, 2010

Strength of short fiber reinforced polymers: Effect of fiber length distribution Aykol, Muratahan; Isitman, Nihat Ali; FIRLAR, Emre; Kaynak, Cevdet (Wiley, 2008-06-01) In this study, the prediction of mechanical strength of short fiber reinforced plastics (SFRPs) is made possible by obtaining a Fiber Length Distribution (FLD) efficiency factor, eta(FLD), from the formerly known twofold discrete strengthening equation of Kelly-Tyson. The unified parameter eta(FLD) is developed involving both the effects of fiber breakage and resulting distribution, fiber volume fraction and fiber and interface properties, so that they can be incorporated into modified rule of mixtures (MRO...
Broadband spectral splitting of white light via 2D diffractive optical elements Başay, Yalın; Yüce, Emre (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey, 2018-10-01) An effective way of increasing the efficiency of solar cells is to spectrally split sunlight into several frequencies and absorb each frequency using appropriate photovoltaic materials. In this study, we establish a method to show spectral splitting of broadband solar light via iteratively optimized diffractive optical elements. We develop an algorithm in order to calculate 2D holographic patterns that focus two different frequencies to designated positions.
Parameter Identification in MHD Duct Flow Cauchy Problem using the DRBEM Tezer, Münevver (2018-08-31) In this study, the Hartmann number (Ha) is identified through the inverse formulation of Cauchy problem for magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow in a duct with insulated but no-slip or variably slipping walls. The solutions for direct and inverse problems are obtained using the dual reciprocity boundary element method (DRBEM), and Tikhonov regularization with L-curve method is used for solving ill-conditioned linear system of equations resulted from the inverse problem. The velocity and the induced magnetic field...
Generation of 2-mu J 410-fs pulses from a single-mode chirped-pulse fiber laser operating at 1550 nm Pavlova, Svitlana; Rezaei, Hossein; Pavlov, Ihor; Kalaycioglu, Hamit; Ilday, Fatih Omer (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2018-10-01) We report on a simple, robust, femtosecond chirped-pulse-amplification system, based on Er-and Er-Yb-doped fibers, operating at a central wavelength of 1555 nm. The entire system is constructed from commercially available fiber components, except the grating compressor, for easy duplication by other researchers. The laser system produces chirped pulses with up to 4 mu J of pulse energy at 250 kHz. After dechirping, the pulse duration is 410 fs and the pulse energy is reduced to 2 mu J. The repetition rate o...
Measurement of the Top Quark Pair Production Cross Section in Proton-Proton Collisions at root s=13 TeV Khachatryan, V.; et. al. (American Physical Society (APS), 2016-02-01) The top quark pair production cross section is measured for the first time in proton-proton collisions at root s = 13 TeV by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC, using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 43 pb(-1). The measurement is performed by analyzing events with at least one electron and one muon of opposite charge, and at least two jets. The measured cross section is 746 +/- 58(stat) +/- 53(syst) +/- 36(lumi) pb, in agreement with the expectation from the standard model.
