Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Integrating Family-Centered Care To Child Health and Diseases Nursing Course Via Distance Education(Taylor & Francis inc, 2023) Ozbay, Sevil Cinar; Ozbay, Ozkan; Boztepe, HandanThe aim of this study was to determine the impact of an online Child Health and Diseases Nursing course emphasizing family-centered care upon the perceptions of nursing students toward family-centered care. A one-group pretest-posttest model was used in this study. The research participants consisted of 88 students studying at X University, Faculty of Health Sciences, Department of Nursing. While 67.1% of the students stated that there were obstacles in implementing family-centered care, 73.9% stated that there were no facilitating elements in implementing of family-centered care. A statistically significant difference was found between the mean scores of the students' posttest family-centered care attitude and parents' attitude at the end of the training. This study provides insights into family-centered care, which could be used in crafting policies and interventions in nursing education in Turkey. Such insights could foster positive perceptions of family-centered care among student nurses.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 6Reliability Analysis of Systems With Components Having Two Dependent Subcomponents(Taylor & Francis inc, 2017) Eryilmaz, SerkanIn this article, a system that consists of n independent components each having two dependent subcomponents (A(i), B-i), i = 1, ... ,n is considered. The system is assumed to compose of components that have two correlated subcomponents (A(i), B-i), and functions iff both systems of subcomponents A(1),A(2), ... ,A(n) and B-1, B-2, ... , B-n work under certain structural rules. The expressions for reiiabiiity and mean time to failure of such systems are obtained. A sufficient condition to compare two systems of bivariate components in terms of stochastic ordering is also ordering presented.Article Citation - WoS: 27Citation - Scopus: 31Generalized Extreme Shock Models and Their Applications(Taylor & Francis inc, 2020) Bozbulut, Ali Riza; Eryilmaz, SerkanIn the classical extreme shock model, the system fails due to a single catastrophic shock. In this paper, by assuming different arrival patterns of the shocks, two new types of extreme shock models are introduced. In these models, m possible sources may exert shocks on the system. Both models reduce to the classical extreme shock model when m = 1. Assuming phase-type distribution for times between successive shocks, we obtain survival functions and mean time to failure values of the system under new models. Two different optimization problems are also considered to determine the optimal number of sources.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 15Dynamic Reliability Evaluation of Consecutive-K System(Taylor & Francis inc, 2011) Eryilmaz, Serkan; Kan, CihangirA consecutive k-within-m-out-of-n:F system consists of n linearly ordered components and fails if and only if there are m consecutive components which include among them at least k failed components. This system model generalizes both consecutive k-out-of-n:F and k-out-of-n:F systems. In this article, we study the dynamic reliability properties of consecutive k-within-m-out-of-n:F system consisting of exchangeable dependent components. We also obtain some stochastic ordering results and use them to get simple approximation formulae for the survival function and mean time to failure of this system.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 7Modeling Systems With Two Dependent Components Under Bivariate Shock Models(Taylor & Francis inc, 2019) Eryilmaz, SerkanSeries and parallel systems consisting of two dependent components are studied under bivariate shock models. The random variables N-1 and N-2 that represent respectively the number of shocks until failure of component 1 and component 2 are assumed to be dependent and phase-type. The times between successive shocks are assumed to follow a continuous phase-type distribution, and survival functions and mean time to failure values of series and parallel systems are obtained in matrix forms. An upper bound for the joint survival function of the components is also provided under the particular case when the times between shocks follow exponential distribution.Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 17Reliability of Weighted k-out-of-n< g Systems Consisting of Two Types of Components and a Cold Standby Component(Taylor & Francis inc, 2017) Franko, C.; Eryılmaz, Serkan; Tutuncu, G. Y.; Eryilmaz, S.; Eryılmaz, Serkan; Industrial Engineering; Industrial EngineeringIn this article, the influence of a cold standby component to the reliability of weighted k-out-of-n: G systems consisting of two different types of components is studied. Weighted k-out-of-n: G systems are generalization of k-out-of-n systems that has attracted substantial interest in reliability theory because of their various applications in engineering. A method based on residual lifetimes of mixed components is presented for computing reliability of weighted k-out-of-n: G systems with two types of components and a cold standby component. Reliability and mean time to failure of different structured systems have been computed. Moreover, obtained results are used for defining optimal system configurations that can minimize the overall system costs.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 8New Computational Methods for Classification Problems in the Existence of Outliers Based on Conic Quadratic Optimization(Taylor & Francis inc, 2020) Yerlikaya-Ozkurt, Fatma; Taylan, PakizeMost of the statistical research involves classification which is a procedure utilized to establish prediction models to set apart and classify new observations in the dataset from every fields of science, technology, and economics. However, these models may give misclassification results when dataset contains outliers (extreme data points). Therefore, we dealt with outliers in classification problem: firstly, by combining robustness of mean-shift outlier model and then stability of Tikhonov regularization based on continuous optimization method called Conic Quadratic Programming. These new methodologies are performed on classification dataset within the existence of outliers, and the results are compared with parametric model by using well-known performance measures.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 14On Signatures of Series and Parallel Systems Consisting of Modules With Arbitrary Structures(Taylor & Francis inc, 2014) Eryilmaz, SerkanThe signature of a system is a useful concept not only in the analysis of binary coherent systems but also in network reliability. Computation of system signature is a well-defined combinatorial problem. This article is concerned with the computation of signature vectors of series and parallel systems consisting of modules. We derive simple formulas for the signature and minimal signature of series and parallel systems based on signatures and minimal signatures of modules with given structures. We present computational results to illustrate the findings.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 3A Short Note on Permutation Trinomials of Prescribed Type(Taylor & Francis inc, 2020) Akbal, Yildirim; Temur, Burcu Gulmez; Ongan, PinarWe show that there are no permutation trinomials of the form hox 1/4 x5 ox5oq1 xq1 1 over Fq2 where q is not a power of 2. Together with a result of Zha, Z., Hu, L., Fan, S., hox permutes Fq2 if q 1/4 2k where k 2 omod 4, this gives a complete classification of those q's such that hox permutes F-q(2).Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 10Combined Use of Ultrasonic-Assisted Drilling and Minimum Quantity Lubrication for Drilling of Niti Shape Memory Alloy(Taylor & Francis inc, 2023) Namlu, Ramazan Hakki; Lotfi, Bahram; Kilic, S. Engin; Yilmaz, Okan Deniz; Akar, SametThe drilling of shape-memory alloys based on nickel-titanium (Nitinol) is challenging due to their unique properties, such as high strength, high hardness and strong work hardening, which results in excessive tool wear and damage to the material. In this study, an attempt has been made to characterize the drillability of Nitinol by investigating the process/cooling interaction. Four different combinations of process/cooling have been studied as conventional drilling with flood cooling (CD-Wet) and with minimum quantity lubrication (CD-MQL), ultrasonic-assisted drilling with flood cooling (UAD-Wet) and with MQL (UAD-MQL). The drill bit wear, drilling forces, chip morphology and drilled hole quality are used as the performance measures. The results show that UAD conditions result in lower feed forces than CD conditions, with a 31.2% reduction in wet and a 15.3% reduction in MQL on average. The lowest feed forces are observed in UAD-Wet conditions due to better coolant penetration in the cutting zone. The UAD-Wet yielded the lowest tool wear, while CD-MQL exhibited the most severe. UAD demonstrated a & SIM;50% lower tool wear in the wet condition than CD and a 38.7% in the MQL condition. UAD is shown to outperform the CD process in terms of drilled-hole accuracy.
