We investigated the cell focusing performance of a CEA type microchannel, which comprises several throttles connecting circular wells in a zigzag arrangement. By obtaining the spatial distribution of the lift force using direct numerical simulations (DNS), we revealed the expected particle trajectories for CEA microchannel by sampling the circular wells with rectangular sections (AR = 1, 2, and 4). Both simulations and initial experiments suggested an improvement in focusing behavior in CEA type microchannel thanks to secondary drag force, arising from the agitation of fluid flow around the channel center.

Numerical analysis, design and two port equivalent circuit models for split ring resonator arrays Yaşar Örten, Pınar; Sayan, Gönül; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2010) Split ring resonator (SRR) is a metamaterial structure which displays negative permeability values over a relatively small bandwidth around its magnetic resonance frequency. Unit SRR cells and arrays have been used in various novel applications including the design of miniaturized microwave devices and antennas. When the SRR arrays are combined with the arrays of conducting wires, left handed materials can be constructed with the unusual property of having negative valued effective refractive indices. In th...
Evaluation of Sparsity-based Methods for Parameterized Source Separation Baskaya, Hasan Can; Öktem, Sevinç Figen (2020-10-07) Parametric reconstruction problems arise in many areas such as array processing, wireless communication, source separation, and spectroscopy. In a parametric recovery problem, the unknown model parameters in each superimposed signal are estimated from noisy observations. Sparsity-based methods used in compressive sensing are also applied to parametric recovery problems. These methods discretize the parameter space to form a dictionary whose atoms correspond to candidate parameter values, represent the data ...
Evaluation of classical and sparsity-based methods for parametric recovery problems Başkaya, Hasan Can; Öktem, Figen S..; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2020) Parametric reconstruction problems arise in many areas such as array processing, wireless communication, source separation, and spectroscopy. In a parametric recovery problem, the unknown model parameters in each superimposed signal are estimated from noisy observations. Classical methods perform the recovery over directly on the continuous-valued parameter space by solving a nonlinear inverse problem. Recently sparsity-based methods have also been applied to parametric recovery problems. These methods disc...
Computational analysis of network activity and spatial reach of sharp wave-ripples Canakci, Sadullah; Toy, Muhammed Faruk; Inci, Ahmet Fatih; Liu, Xin; Kuzum, Duygu (Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2017-9-15) Network oscillations of different frequencies, durations and amplitudes are hypothesized to coordinate information processing and transfer across brain areas. Among these oscillations, hippocampal sharp wave-ripple complexes (SPW-Rs) are one of the most prominent. SPW-Rs occurring in the hippocampus are suggested to play essential roles in memory consolidation as well as information transfer to the neocortex. To-date, most of the knowledge about SPW-Rs comes from experimental studies averaging responses fro...
Numerical analysis of radio frequency inductively coupled ion thruster and computation of its performance parameters Bozkurt, Erdal; Alemdaroğlu, Nafiz.; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2019) The main goal of this thesis is geometric and parametric analysis of a simulated cylin-drical two-gridded Radio Frequency Inductively Coupled (RF-ICP) ion thruster. Inaddition, instrumental performance of this thruster and the effects of a fixed shapeof the electrodes on ion trajectories are investigated. The simulations of the plasmaand the ion optics are performed by using COMSOL Multiphysics software. The firststep is checking the reliability of the software. Radial and axial simulation parametricresults...
