Article Citation - WoS: 18Citation - Scopus: 21A Data-Driven Model To Forecast Multi-Step Ahead Time Series of Turkish Daily Electricity Load(Mdpi, 2022) Unlu, Kamil Demirberk; Ünlü, Kamil Demirberk; Ünlü, Kamil Demirberk; Industrial Engineering; Industrial EngineeringIt is critical to maintain a balance between the supply and the demand for electricity because of its non-storable feature. For power-producing facilities and traders, an electrical load is a piece of fundamental and vital information to have, particularly in terms of production planning, daily operations, and unit obligations, among other things. This study offers a deep learning methodology to model and forecast multistep daily Turkish electricity loads using the data between 5 January 2015, and 26 December 2021. One major reason for the growing popularity of deep learning is the creation of new and creative deep neural network topologies and significant computational advancements. Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Gated Recurrent Network, and Convolutional Neural Network are trained and compared to forecast 1 day to 7 days ahead of daily electricity load. Three different performance metrics including coefficient of determination (R-2), root mean squared error, and mean absolute error were used to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithms. The forecasting results on the test set showed that the best performance is achieved by LSTM. The algorithm has an R-2 of 0.94 for 1 day ahead forecast, and the metric decreases to 0.73 in 7 days ahead forecast.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Lifetime Prediction of Single Crystal Nickel-Based Superalloys(Mdpi, 2025) Kasar, Cagatay; Kaftancioglu, Utku; Bayraktar, Emin; Aslan, OzgurSingle crystal nickel-based superalloys are extensively used in turbine blade applications due to their superior creep resistance compared to their polycrystalline counterparts. With the high creep resistance, high cycle fatigue (HCF) and low cycle fatigue (LCF) become primary failure mechanisms for such applications. This study investigates the fatigue life prediction of CMSX-4 using a combination of crystal plasticity and lifetime assessment models. The constitutive crystal plasticity model simulates the anisotropic, rate-dependent deformation behavior of CMSX-4, while the modified Chaboche damage model is used for lifetime assessment, focusing on cleavage stresses on active slip planes to include anisotropy. Both qualitative and quantitative data obtained from HCF experiments on single crystal superalloys with notched geometry were used for validation of the model. Furthermore, artificial neural networks (ANNs) were employed to enhance the accuracy of lifetime predictions across varying temperatures by analyzing the fatigue curves obtained from the damage model. The integration of crystal plasticity, damage mechanics, and ANNs resulted in an accurate prediction of fatigue life and crack initiation points under complex loading conditions of single crystals superalloys.
