Organizational Unit
Department of Basic English (Prep School)
Atilim University Department of Basic English, have the goal to turn each of you into a member of world citizens highly capable in their field of study. In this way, we also would like to add to the cumulative knowledge level in the world and contribute to the development of our own country. Aware of our responsibilities towards this goal, we constantly update our language teaching approaches and applications. In this process, we utilize the benefits of the technology and we accommodate a tablet-based language teaching model in our classes.
Organizational Unit
Mechanical Engineering
(2009)
The Atılım University Department of Mechanical Engineering started education in 2009, and offers graduate and doctorate degree programs, in addition to its undergraduate program. Our main goal is to graduate Mechanical Engineers who have the skills to design, analyze and synthesize; who are able to convert advanced technology and innovations into products; and who have the culture of research and cooperation. While our graduates reach this goal, they adopt the principle of life-long learning, and develop a sense of entrepreneurship, paying importance to professional ethics. With a curriculum prepared in line with the criteria of MÜDEK, we help our students develop themselves professionally, and socially. Graduates of mechanical engineering may be employed in many sectors and in a wide array of positions. Able to work under any field that involves production and energy conversion, graduates of the department may also gain expertise in fields such as aviation, automotive, or material engineering.

Abstract

Due to its high impact energy absorption properties, devulcanized recycled rubber based composites can be considered as a low cost candidate material for military applications which require lightweight protection against shock waves. This work aims at modeling of low cost devulcanized recycled rubber based composite behavior at high strain rates. In that framework, we established a continuum-based material model in order to capture the macroscopic behavior of the recycled rubber based composite material and numerically reproduce the results from the basic characterization tests. The model is implemented for Finite Element Analysis Software ABAQUS/Standard as a user subroutine UMAT for implicit nonlinear finite element calculations in order to simulate the behavior of several RVEs representing the microstructure of the composite and it is behavior at high strain rates. © 2022, The Society for Experimental Mechanics.
