A novel flat winding topology has been proposed as an alternative to conventional windings with stranded round wires and other bar wound windings. The proposed winding is manufactured from thin conductor sheets by industrial tools such as stamping press, laser cutter, or water jet. As these tools are widely used in the production of electric machines, the flat winding topology can provide ease of manufacturing without significant modification to the production line. Besides, superior current ratings, shortened end windings, and high fill factors are other advantages of flat winding. Its performance is measured by comparison study between flat wired prototype machine and the stranded wired machines with similar ratings presented in the literature. The proposed winding is implemented on an axial flux permanent magnet machine. Analytical modeling is presented, including field modeling, voltage, torque derivations, and loss modeling. Then, experimental verification of a 1.4-kW and 26-Nm prototype with copper and aluminum flat windings is presented, and the performances of two are compared.

Axial flux permanent magnet machine with novel flat winding made of conductor sheet Çakal, Gökhan; Keysan, Ozan; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2020-10-13) This thesis proposes a novel winding topology, called flat winding, as an alternative to the conventional windings with stranded round wires for electric machines. It is made of a thin conductor sheet by industrial automation tools such as stamping press, laser, or water jet. Since these tools are widely used in the production of electric machines, the flat winding topology enjoys the advantage of the ease of manufacturing without significant modification on the production line. Superior current ratings, sh...
Integrated Optical Modulator Based on Transition between Photonic Bands Gövdeli, Alperen; Sarihan, Murat Can; Karaca, Utku; Kocaman, Serdar (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2018-01-26) An area efficient novel optical modulator with low operation voltage is designed based on integrated Mach-Zehnder Interferometer with a photonic crystal slab structure as the phase shifter. Plasma dispersion effect is utilized so that photonic band-to-band transition occurs at the operating frequency leading to a high index change (Delta n = similar to 4) for pi-phase shift on the modulator. This approach reduces the phase shifter length to a few micrometers (similar to 5 mu m) in a silicon on insulator pla...
Active vibration suppression of a smart beam via self sensing piezoelectric actuator Uğur, Arıdoğan; Şahin, Melin; Yaman, Yavuz; Volkan, Nalbantoğlu (null; 2009-08-17) In this paper, an active vibration suppression of a smart beam using self-sensing piezoelectric actuator is presented. The smart beam is composed of a cantilever aluminium beam with four surface-bonded piezoelectric patches symmetrically located both side of the beam. Piezoelectric materials can transform mechanical deformation to electric signal and vice versa. This property of piezoelectric materials enables them to be used as an actuator and a sensor. In self-sensing actuator configuration, the piezoelec...
Mechanical fatique and life estimation analysis of printed circuit board components Genç, Cem; Ünlüsoy, Yavuz Samim; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2006) In this thesis, vibration induced fatigue life analysis of axial leaded Tantalum & Aluminum capacitors, PDIP and SM capacitors mounted on the printed circuit boards are performed. This approach requires the finite element model, material properties and dynamic characteristics of the PCB. The young modulus of the PCB material is obtained from 3 point bending tests, resonance frequencies are obtained from modal tests and transmissibility’s of the PCB are obtained from transmissibility tests which are used as ...
Frequency tunable microstrip patch antenna using RF MEMS technology Erdıl, Emre; Topallı, Kagan; Unlu, Mehmet; Aydın Çivi, Hatice Özlem; Akın, Tayfun (2007-04-01) A novel reconfigurable microstrip patch antenna is presented that is monolithically integrated with RF microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) capacitors for tuning the resonant frequency. Reconfigurability of the operating frequency of the microstrip patch antenna is achieved by loading it with a coplanar waveguide (CPW) stub on which variable MEMS capacitors are placed periodically. MEMS capacitors are implemented with surface micromachining technology, where a 1-mu m thick aluminum structural layer is plac...
