Computational representation of protein sequences for homology detection and classification
Oğul, Hasan; Mumcuoğlu, Ünal Erkan; Department of Information Systems (2006)
Machine learning techniques have been widely used for classification problems in computational biology. They require that the input must be a collection of fixedlength feature vectors. Since proteins are of varying lengths, there is a need for a means of representing protein sequences by a fixed-number of features. This thesis introduces three novel methods for this purpose: n-peptide compositions with reduced alphabets, pairwise similarity scores by maximal unique matches, and pairwise similarity scores by...
Computational modeling of rupture in rubbery polymers
Akçören, Berkay; Göktepe, Serdar; Department of Civil Engineering (2020)
Rubbery polymers, also known as elastomers, can exhibit large deformations that are generally accompanied by inelastic deformations. Owing to their superior mechanical, physical, and chemical properties, elastomers are widely used in a broad range of industrial applications such as car tires, seismic isolators, mechanical membranes, and seals. For these applications, failure prediction is cardinally essential. Therefore, this thesis is concerned with the computational failure analysis of rubbery polymers th...
Computational modeling of passive myocardium
Göktepe, Serdar; Wong, Jonathan; Kuhl, Ellen (Wiley, 2011-01-01)
This work deals with the computational modeling of passive myocardial tissue within the framework ofmixed, non-linear finite element methods. We consider a recently proposed, convex, anisotropic hyperelastic model that accounts for the locally orthotropic micro-structure of cardiac muscle. A coordinate-free representation of anisotropy is incorporated through physically relevant invariants of the Cauchy-Green deformation tensors and structural tensors of the corresponding material symmetry group. This model...
Computational study of scattering from healthy and diseased red blood cells
Ergül, Özgür Salih; Gurel, Levent (SPIE-Intl Soc Optical Eng, 2010-07-01)
We present a comparative study of scattering from healthy red blood cells (RBCs) and diseased RBCs with deformed shapes. Scattering problems involving three-dimensional RBCs are formulated accurately with the electric and magnetic current combined- field integral equation and solved efficiently by the multilevel fast multipole algorithm. We compare scattering cross section values obtained for different RBC shapes and different orientations. In this way, we determine strict guidelines to distinguish deformed...
Computational study of hydroxyapatite structures, properties and defects
Bystrov, V. S.; Coutinho, J.; Bystrova, A. V.; Dekhtyar, Yu D.; Pullar, R. C.; Poronin, A.; Palcevskis, E.; Dindune, A.; Alkan, B.; Durucan, Caner; Paramonova, E. V. (IOP Publishing, 2015-05-20)
Hydroxyapatite (HAp) was studied from a first principle approach using the local density approximation (LDA) method in AIMPRO code, in combination with various quantum mechanical (QM) and molecular mechanical (MM) methods from HypemChem 7.5/8.0. The data obtained were used for studies of HAp structures, the physical properties of HAp (density of electronic states-DOS, bulk modulus etc) and defects in HAp. Computed data confirmed that HAp can co-exist in different phases-hexagonal and monoclinic. Ordered mon...
