A new energy relaxation technique for nonconvex inelasticity is applied to an isotropic damage model. The increasingdamage yields nonconvex incremental potentials indicating the instability of the material and the development of fine-scale microstructures. The microstructures ar e resolved as first-or der laminates by convexifiaction techniques.

Dynamic analysis of beams with breathing crack using finite element method
Özkan, Berkay; Kadıoğlu, Fevzi Suat; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2017)
Non-linear dynamic characteristics of a beam with a breathing crack are investigated using finite element method. This thesis has two main objectives: (1) to obtain a foresight for the vibration based crack detection by using finite element method (2) to investigate the effects of crack location, crack depth, excitation frequency, excitation amplitude and boundary conditions on the indications of crack presence. Two dimensional finite element approach is used to model a square cross sectional beam subjected...
Application of Several Boundary Conditions for Bi-anisotropic Metamaterial Structures and Investigation of Electromagnetic Response
Uçkun, Savaş(2015-09-04)
—The effects of electromagnetic coupling on constitutive S-Parameters of bi-anisotropically designed metamaterial (MM) structure with several boundary conditions (PEC, PMC, UC) are analyzed. It is disclosed that in addition to the main electromagnetic coupling effect on the constitutive parameters of resonating MM structure, boundary conditions have an influence on this coupling effect because of the different imaging properties of the boundaries. The effects of electric and magnetic excitations on SRR and ...
Application of Multivariate Adaptive Regression Splines to Sheet Metal Bending Process for Springback Compensation
Dilan, Rasim Askin; Balkan, Raif Tuna; Platin, Bülent Emre (EDP Sciences; 2016-07-07)
An intelligent regression technique is applied for sheet metal bending processes to improve bending performance. This study is a part of another extensive study, automated sheet bending assistance for press brakes. Data related to material properties of sheet metal is collected in an online manner and fed to an intelligent system for determining the most accurate punch displacement without any offline iteration or calibration. The overall system aims to reduce the production time while increasing the perfor...
Improvement of multiband absorption with different technics (graphene, ito, and hole) for metamaterial absorber at optical frequencies
Mulla, Batuhan; Sabah, Cumali (2018-10-01)
Three absorption improvement techniques are numerically applied to a multiband metamaterial absorber design for solar energy harvesting. These techniques are the following: the reshaping of the back metallic plate, the integrating of graphene sheets, and the utilizing of indium tin oxide (ITO), in the design. Based on numerical simulation results, each of these methods has the capacity to enhance total absorption rates. In addition to the enhancement in the total absorption rates, new absorption peaks are a...
Development of a physical theory model for the simulation of hysteretic behavior of steel braces
Çalık, Ertuğrul Emre; Dicleli, Murat; Department of Engineering Sciences (2007)
Bracing members are considered to be effective earthquake-resistant elements as they improve the lateral strength and stiffness of the structural system and contribute to seismic energy dissipation by deforming inelastically during severe earthquake motions. However, the cyclic behavior of such bracing members is quite complex because it is influenced by both buckling and yielding. This thesis presents simple but an efficient analytical model that can be used to simulate the inelastic cyclic behavior of ste...
