This paper presents the findings of a review carried out on twelve morphological charts completed in groups, containing a total of 686 sub-solution sketches made for a pool of 21 sub-functions. The charts were reviewed as a whole in terms of group performance in idea generation for a decomposed design problem. Then the ideas generated as sub-solutions were grouped according to sub-functions and were reviewed in terms of idea content and effort in design divergence. It was seen that a background preparation with product trials, 3D component analyses and experience in using the morphological chart method affected the number of cells that the participants completed, as well as the ways in which they filled in the morphological chart. The reviews revealed eleven factors affecting design divergence using the morphological chart method, grouping under the headings of: preparations, group dynamics, boundaries of sub-functions, and analysis of components. Besides, thirteen strategies were identified that participants followed for design divergence using the morphological chart, grouping under the headings of: beginning idea generation, effective idea generation, exploring ideas, diversifying ideas and representing ideas.

Visual Looming as a range sensor for mobile robots
Şahin, Erol (1998-01-01)
This paper describes and evaluates visual looming as a method for monocular range estimation. The looming algorithm is based on the relationship between displacements of the observer relative to an object, and the resulting change in the size of the object's image on the focal plane of the camera. Though the looming algorithm has been described in detail in prior reports, its usefulness for inexpensive, robust ranging has not been realized widely. In this paper we analyze visual looming as a visual range se...
Visual Thinking Styles and Idea Generation Strategies Employed in Visual Brainstorming Sessions
Börekçi, Naz Ayşe Güzide Z. (2016-07-09)
This paper presents the findings of visual analyses conducted on 369 sketch ideas generated in three 6-3-5 visual brainstorming sessions by a total of 25 participants, following the same design brief. The motivation for the study was an interest in the thematic content of the ideas generated as groups, and the individual representation styles used for the sketches. The analyses revealed the determinants of individual visual thinking styles as: idea types, sketching patterns, sketching styles, annotation sty...

High-volume natural pozzolan concrete for structural applications
Uzal, Burak; Turani, Lutfullah; Mehta, P. Kumar (2007-09-01)
This paper presents the results of preliminary studies on concrete mixtures containing high volumes of natural pozzolan-(50%- by mass of total cementitious materials) for- structural applications. Three different kinds, of natural pozzolans from. Turkish deposits were used to prepare the high-volume natural pozzolan (HVNP) concrete. mixtures. Two additional mixtures with a high-volume of low-calcium fly ash and granulated blast-furnace slag were also prepared for comparison purposes. In addition, a conventi...
Behavior and modeling of nonprismatic members having T-sections
Balkaya, C (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2001-08-01)
This paper emphasizes the discrepancies in conventional methods of analyzing nonprismatic members having T-sections. In practice, the change in the location of the centroidal axis over the length of nonprismatic members is ignored in structural analysis. Commonly used portland Cement Association tables for fixed-end moment and stiffness factors are based on the assumptions of a straight-line centroidal axis and variable rectangular cross section: However, discontinuities in the centroidal. axis produce stro...
