Directly irradiated fluidized/spouted particle receivers can potentially store thermal energy at higher temperatures than 1100 °C in concentrated solar power (CSP) applications. Therefore, these types of thermal receivers ...

The aim of this thesis is to implement CNC-based trajectory generation techniques with Cable Driven Parallel Robots (CDPRs). CDPRs are a special type of parallel robots that use motors and cables to manipulate an end-effector ...

The benefits of the relative new passive vibration isolation device, known as an Inerter or J-Damper, have been examined in terms of ride comfort for heavy commercial vehicle seat and cabin suspensions. The investigations ...

In modern combat scenarios, the effectiveness of tactical missiles relies heavily on their maneuverability and control systems. Enhancing missile performance, considering the challenges posed by highly maneuverable or ...

Guided missiles are generally stored in missile canisters during storage, handling and transit up to missiles are fired. In system design perspective, the design requirements of missiles are defined beforehand and assigned. ...

It is expected that autonomous vehicles will be sold more in the coming years, and this may cause new problems in restrictive protection systems which are called restraint systems. Because uncommon seating positions may ...

In aerospace defense industry, missile systems have been an important asset for more than half a century. As technological advancements take place, this field also continues to improve and develop today. A missile is simply ...

In recent years, the use of unmanned autonomous wheeled, tracked or insect-legged unmanned ground vehicles has become increasingly widespread, and studies on the development of these ground vehicles are increasingly carried ...

In the preliminary design phase of supersonic aircraft, rapid iteration and evaluation of aerodynamic characteristics are considered crucial. To streamline this process and reduce dependence on time-consuming CFD analyses, ...

In this thesis, spouted bed solar receivers were investigated in both experimental and numerical methods. One of the emerging applications of spouted beds is its utilization as a thermal energy storage unit in concentrated ...
