Global Perspectives On First Generation Liquid Biofuel Production, Rok Fink, Saso Medved
Global Perspectives On First Generation Liquid Biofuel Production, Rok Fink, Saso Medved
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
Transport today is mostly sustained by liquid fossil fuels, despite the fact that the invention of the combustion engine started with biofuels. However, known environmental impacts and the instability of the fossil-fuel market have revived the status of biofuels. Some concerns have appeared regarding how emerging global climate changes will affect biofuels' feedstock production, since agriculture is strongly dependent on climate variables. Therefore, numerical models were introduced to calculate how temperature and precipitation could affect crop production for biodiesel and bioethanol production. Furthermore, 4 scenarios projected by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change were put into the calculations. The results …

Estimating The Soil Water Retention Curve From Soil Particle Size Distribution Using The Arya And Paris Model For Iranian Soils, Leila Rezaee, Mahmoud Shabanpour, Naser Davatgar
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
The direct measurement of the soil water retention curve (SWRC) in a laboratory is time-consuming, difficult, and costly. Thus, many attempts have been made to predict the water retention curve indirectly from the physical and chemical properties of soil. The particle size distribution curve is one of the indirect methods used to predict the water retention curve. The Arya and Paris (AP) model predicts the soil water retention curve from soil particle size distribution (PSD) data. The AP model estimates pore radius from the radius of spherical particles by using a scaling parameter (\alpha). The objective of this study was …

Parametric Modeling Of Root Length Density And Root Water Uptake In Unsaturated Soil, Sina Besharat, Amir Hossein Nazemi, Ali Ashraf Sadraddini
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
The problem of water movement through the root zone has attracted increasing interest during the last few decades. In this research, the spatial and temporal pattern of root water uptake in wetted soil was studied in the root zone of a 6-year-old apple tree. An important part of the root water uptake model is root length density, which was measured by sampling soil cores in one quarter of the root zone. The exponential model better described the observed apple root distribution. The measured data were compared against the outputs of the root density distribution model. A normalized root length density …

State Variable Distributed-Parameter Representation Of Transmission Line For Transient Simulations, Mehmet Sali̇h Mami̇ş, Asim Kaygusuz, Muhammet Köksal
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper, a distributed-parameter state variable approach is used to calculate transients on transmission lines based on the concept of travelling waves. The method of characteristics for lossless line is used and the state equations are derived for the system. These equations are converted to a set of difference equations using the trapezoidal rule of integration and solved in time domain using LU decomposition. Single- and multi-phase transmission lines with various linear and non-linear terminations are considered in the illustrative examples. State-space modeling of transposed lines using modal decomposition is introduced and the effects caused by lumped parameter approximation …

An Approach Based On Particle Swarm Computation To Study The Nanoscale Dg Mosfet-Based Circuits, Fayacl Djeffal, Toufik Bendib, Redha Benzid, Abdelhamid Benhaya
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The analytical modeling of nanoscale Double-Gate MOSFETs (DG) requires generally several necessary simplifying assumptions to lead to compact expressions of current-voltage characteristics for nanoscale CMOS circuits design. Further, progress in the development, design and optimization of nanoscale devices necessarily require new theory and modeling tools in order to improve the accuracy and the computational time of circuits' simulators. In this paper, we propose a new particle swarm strategy to study the nanoscale CMOS circuits. The latter is based on the 2-D numerical Non-Equilibrium Green's Function (NEGF) simulation and a new extended long channel DG MOSFET compact model. Good agreement between …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this article we consider a version of the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm which is appropriate for search tasks of multi-agent systems consisting of small robots with limited sensing capability. The proposed method adopts asynchronous mechanism for information exchange and position (way point) updates of the agents. Moreover, at each (information exchange) step the agents communicate with only a possibly different subset of the other agents leading to a dynamic neighborhood topology. We implement the algorithm using the Player/Stage realistic robot simulator as well as on real KheperaIII robots using experimentally collected realistic data of ethanol gas concentration. Simulation …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Mobile Ad-hoc NETworks (MANETs) are expected to play an important role in tactical military networks by providing infrastructureless communication. However, maintaining secure and instant information sharing is a difficult task especially for highly dynamic military MANETs. To address this requirement, we propose a new multi-tier adaptive military MANET security protocol using hybrid cryptography and signcryption. In our protocol, we bring novelties to secure military MANET communication for three main points: Cryptographic methods used in MANETs, hybrid key management protocols and structural organization of the military MANETs. As a new approach, we use hybrid cryptography mechanisms and Elliptic Curve Pintsov-Vanstone Signature …

Effect Of Transformer On Stochastic Estimation Of Voltage Sag Due To Faults In The Power System: A Pscad/Emtdc Simulation, Nita R. Patne, K. L. Thakre
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Voltage sags in the electric power system are mostly due to faults in the power system. Voltage sag is characterized by its magnitude (the retained voltage), phase-angle jump, unbalance in the sag in the three phases, and duration. Type of transformers in the electrical system is the important parameter influencing the characteristic of sag at the node where sensitive loads are connected. For sensitive loads it is necessary to estimate how many times in a year the voltage at their terminal will experience sag to avoid tripping of operation. In this paper the effect of transformer on stochastic estimation of …
Adaptive Hysteresis Band Control For Constant Switching Frequency In Dtc Induction Machine Drives, H. İbrahi̇m Okumuş, Mustafa Aktaş
Adaptive Hysteresis Band Control For Constant Switching Frequency In Dtc Induction Machine Drives, H. İbrahi̇m Okumuş, Mustafa Aktaş
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
It is fairly well known that direct torque control (DTC) exhibits fast dynamic torque response, a property that originates in the fact that torque and flux is directly controlled by instantaneous space voltage vector, unlike field-oriented control. For this reason direct torque control gradually has been used in the field, eliciting quick response and high efficiency since its introduction in the mid-1980s. Conventional fixed band hysteresis control has several problems. One of these is variable switching frequency, which causes serious problems in DTC. In this paper, an adaptive hysteresis band control strategy is proposed, where the hysteresis band is controlled …

Improved Analytical Modulation Transfer Function For Image Intensified Charge Coupled Devices*, Nebi̇ Gül, Murat Efe
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The basic problem of simulation and modeling of Image Intensified Charge Coupled Device (ICCD) is the difference between the analytical Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) formulation used in the model and the experimentally obtained MTF. An investigation into the MTF of ICCD sub-components reveal that the MTF of the Image Intensifier Tube (IIT) is the main factor in this deviation. In this study, a regulation factor for the MTF of 3^{rd} generation IITs has been developed. A commonly used MTF formulation for IITs has been modified to include a regulation factor which has helped produce more precise MTF values for the …
Building Linear Parameter Varying Models Using Adaptation, For The Control Of A Class Of Nonlinear Systems, Coşku Kasnakoğlu
Building Linear Parameter Varying Models Using Adaptation, For The Control Of A Class Of Nonlinear Systems, Coşku Kasnakoğlu
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper a novel method is proposed for constructing linear parameter varying (LPV) system models through adaptation. For a class of nonlinear systems, an LPV model is built using its linear part, and its coefficients are considered as time-varying parameters. The variation in time is controlled by an adaptation scheme with the goal of keeping the trajectories of the LPV system close to those of the original nonlinear system. Using the LPV model as a surrogate, a dynamical controller is built by utilizing self-scheduling methods for LPV systems, and it is shown that this controller will indeed stabilize the …

P2p Collaborative Filtering With Privacy, Ci̇han Kaleli̇, Hüseyi̇n Polat
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
With the evolution of the Internet and e-commerce, collaborative filtering (CF) and privacy-preserving collaborative filtering (PPCF) have become popular. The goal in CF is to generate predictions with decent accuracy, efficiently. The main issue in PPCF, however, is achieving such a goal while preserving users' privacy. Many implementations of CF and PPCF techniques proposed so far are centralized. In centralized systems, data is collected and stored by a central server for CF purposes. Centralized storage poses several hazards to users because the central server controls users' data. In this work, we investigate how to produce naïve Bayesian classifier (NBC)-based recommendations …
