In recent years, beyond various different approaches, preconditioning methods gained increasing popularity for all speed flow solver development studies. The resulting formulation of these methods is very similar to the well-known compressible governing equations which allow the usage of widely used numerical methods and algorithms. On the contrary to pressure based methods, preconditioning methods are also very successful on high speed flows with their conservative form equation set. In preconditioning methods, the time derivative terms of the Euler equations are premultiplied by a matrix for relaxation to enhance the convergence behavior without altering the steady-state solution. One of the pioneering researches on low speed flows is Artificial Compressibility Method and accepted to be the first preconditioning methods. Several improvements and extensions are later developed and families of preconditioners are introduced. In this study, a recently developed novel preconditioning formulation is extended to three dimensional problems. The major difference of the developed formulation is usage of conservation of energy equation to enforce divergence free flow field on low speeds. Despite the general approach of preconditioning the continuity equation, it is both theoretically and numerically proved that proper preconditioning of the energy equation can also ensure the continuity. The resulting equation set behaves as the non-preconditioned conservative form of compressible Euler formulation on high Mach number flows and converges to well-known Artificial Compressibility Formulation at the incompressibility limit. On the present study, the proposed formulation is implemented into an unstructured parallel in-house code and validated on 3-D external flows for several Mach numbers. The convergence character is compared against non-preconditioned compressible Euler equations on ONERA M6 test case. The preliminary results show that Mach uniformity is accomplished whereas convergence character is not as good as non-preconditioned formulation. The convergence rate will be ameliorated with extensive work on boundary conditions, discretization and coding.

A Mach-uniform preconditioner for incompressible and subsonic flows Bas, Onur; Tuncer, İsmail Hakkı; Kaynak, Unver (2014-01-20) In this study, a novel Mach-uniform preconditioning method is developed for the solution of Euler equations at low subsonic and incompressible flow conditions. In contrast to the methods developed earlier in which the conservation of mass equation is preconditioned, in the present method, the conservation of energy equation is preconditioned, which enforces the divergence free constraint on the velocity field even at the limiting case of incompressible, zero Mach number flows. Despite most preconditioners, ...
A Distributed Online Curriculum and Courseware Development Model ONAY DURDU, PINAR; Yalabik, Nese; Çağıltay, Kürşat (2009-01-01) A distributed online curriculum and courseware development model (DONC(2)) is developed and tested in this study. Courseware development teams which may work in different institutions who need to develop high quality, reduced cost, on time products will be the users of DONC(2). The related features from the disciplines of instructional design and software engineering were combined. The research is conducted as a collective case study, including four cases with distinctive characteristics to reveal the sever...
Closed-form sample probing for learning generative models in Zero-shot Learning Çetin, Samet; Baran, Orhun Buğra; Cinbiş, Ramazan Gökberk (2022-04-25) Generative model based approaches have led to significant advances in zero-shot learning (ZSL) over the past few years. These approaches typically aim to learn a conditional generator that synthesizes training samples of classes conditioned on class definitions. The final zero-shot learning model is then obtained by training a supervised classification model over the real and/or synthesized training samples of seen and unseen classes, combined. Therefore, naturally, the generative model needs to produce not...
A parallel gas-kinetic Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook method for the solution of viscous flows on two-dimensional hybrid grids Ilgaz, M.; Tuncer, İsmail Hakkı (Informa UK Limited, 2009-01-01) In this study, a parallel implementation of gas-kinetic Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook method on two-dimensional hybrid grids is presented. Boundary layer regions in wall bounded viscous flows are discretised with quadrilateral grid cells stretched in the direction normal to the solid surface while the rest of the flow domain is discretised by triangular cells. The parallel solution algorithm on hybrid grids is based on the domain decomposition using METIS, a graph partitioning software. The flow solutions obtained ...
AN EFFICIENT DATABASE TRANSITIVE CLOSURE ALGORITHM Toroslu, İsmail Hakkı; HENSCHEN, L (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 1994-05-01) The integration of logic rules and relational databases has recently emerged as an important technique for developing knowledge management systems. An important class of logic rules utilized by these systems is the so-called transitive closure rules, the processing of which requires the computation of the transitive closure of database relations referenced by these rules. This article presents a new algorithm suitable for computing the transitive closure of very large database relations. This algorithm proc...
