    Effect of Hardening Models on Different Ductile Fracture Criteria in Sheet Metal Forming
    (Springer France, 2016) Dizaji, Shahram Abbasnejad; Darendeliler, Haluk; Kaftanoglu, Bilgin; Abbasnejad Dizaji, Shahram
    Prediction of the fracture is one of the challenging issues which gains attention in sheet metal forming as numerical analyses are being extensively used to simulate the process. To have better results in predicting the sheet metal fracture, appropriate ductile fracture criterion (DFC), yield criterion and hardening rule should be chosen. In this study, the effects of different hardening models namely isotropic, kinematic and combined hardening rules on the various uncoupled ductile fracture criteria are investigated using experimental and numerical methods. Five different ductile fracture criteria are implemented to a finite element code by the user subroutines. The criterion constants of DFCs are obtained by the related experimental tests. The in-plane principle strains obtained by the finite element analyses for different DFCs are compared with the experimental results. Also, the experimental results are used to evaluate the principle strain values calculated by the finite element analysis for different combinations of DFCs and hardening rules. It is shown that some DFCs give better predictions if the appropriate hardening model is employed.

    Evaluation of Efficiencies of Diffuse Allochthonous and Autochthonous Nutrient Input Control in Restoration of a Highly Eutrophic Lake
    (I W A Publishing, 2002) Muhammetoglu, A; Muhammetoglu, H; Soyupak, S
    Mogan Lake is an important recreational area for Metropolitan Ankara-Turkey. It is a shallow eutrophic lake with a dense growth of macrophytes. The main contributors of nutrients and other pollutants to the lake are the creeks carrying the runoff water from the watershed and upland farming land, in addition to the domestic and industrial wastewater discharges from a nearby town and industries. Hydrodynamic and water quality modeling techniques were used to determine the optimum management schemes for the lake restoration and diffuse pollution control. Management scenarios were devised and tested to control allochthonous and autochthonous nutrient inputs to the lake. Phosphorus and nitrogen load reductions were the main test elements for the control of allochthonous nutrient inputs. The scenario analysis revealed that reduction of phosphorus and nitrogen loads from diffused sources will have a marginal effect on controlling eutrophication if macrophyte growth is left uncontrolled. Scenarios employing macrophyte harvesting and sediment dredging have been evaluated for autochthonous nutrient input control. Sediment dredging alone has been shown to yield the most favorable conditions for water quality improvement in Mogan Lake. Further, control of diffuse pollution was an essential final step to achieve an acceptable long-term sustainable water quality improvement in the lake.

    On Euler's differential methods for continued fractions
    (Kent State University, 2006) Khrushchev, Sergey; Mathematics
    A differential method discovered by Euler is justified and applied to give simple proofs to formulas relating important continued fractions with Laplace transforms. They include Stieltjes formulas and some Ramanujan formulas. A representation for the remainder of Leibniz's series as a continued fraction is given. We also recover the original Euler's proof for the continued fraction of hyperbolic cotangent.

    Production of Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene-Granite Composite Films by Gelation/Crystallization
    (Springer, 2016) Efe, Gozde Celebi; Ozaydin, Fevzi; Ucisik, Hikmet; Bindal, Cuma; Liang, Hong
    The present study reports on film of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) containing 1 mass% granite composite produced by gelation/crystallization technique at 150 A degrees C from decalin solution. The morphology of UHMWPE-granite composite film was determined by using optical and scanning electron microscope, differential scanning calorimetry and Raman. Uniform dispersion of granite particles within ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene solution was the first step to achieve ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene-granite sheet samples with excellent properties. In differential scanning calorimetry analysis 50.1 % crystallinity of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene-1 mass% granite composite was calculated from the endothermic peak area occurred around 142 A degrees C which correspond to melting point of composite. Mechanical property of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene-1 mass% granite composite was tested with tensile test and shown to possess unique properties, in particular an increase of over 2.5 times in Young's modulus in comparison with pure ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene.

    Assessment of Nitrogen Excess in an Agricultural Area Using a Nitrogen Balance Approach
    (I W A Publishing, 2005) Muhammetoglu, H; Muhammetoglu, A; Soyupak, S
    A pilot study has been initiated to develop an approach for quantification of nitrogen excesses from agricultural activities that involve greenhouse farming in Kumluca Plain, Turkey. Detailed calculations utilizing the nitrogen balance method (NBM) were carried out at nine different locations within the plain over a time period of one year. The major contributing factors and governing operative mechanisms taken into consideration were nitrogen application rates both as organic and chemical fertilizers, irrigation water to application practices, and nitrogen uptake by plants. The adopted approach yielded valuable information such as plant nitrogen uptake efficiencies, excess nitrogen, leaching rates and leachate nitrogen concentrations. Further, a site specific multiple linear regression model has been developed to estimate the ratio (N-leachate/N-groundwater) as a function of independent variables: farming age, excess nitrogen application and SEEPAGE Index Number. The negative sign of the model parameters implies that the ratio (N-leachate/N-groundwater) decreases as values of the independent variables increase. The adopted approach and the obtained results can beneficially be applied to similar sites to establish basic parameters of irrigation and fertilizer application operations.
