    (JOURNAL OF THE BRAZILIAN SOCIETY OF MECHANICAL SCIENCES AND ENGINEERING, 2024-10) Ic, Yusuf Tansel; Kocum, Cengiz; Atalay, Kumru Didem; Serdaroglu, Dilek Cokeliler; Akar, Gurel; Polat, Isil Yanki; Samsun, Berk; Caliskan, Sevde; Atmaca, Dicle Naz; Karayalcin, Serkan
    Today, microholes play a crucial role in many sectors. Microholes are used in fields such as aerospace, computer systems, and electronic and mechanical industries. In this paper, we improve the performance of the current sensing plasma arc device to create holes within the same diameter, appropriate delamination, and surface quality. In addition, we aim to improve the processing quality of the current sensing plasma arc device, which drills holes from the micron level to the millimeter level and creates microstructures on hard, durable, and inert materials such as glass and quartz. Additionally, we presented a multiobjective optimization model to reach the optimal factor levels to obtain the minimum hole diameter with minimum delamination. For this objective, we propose a design of an experiment-integrated goal programming model in this study. The optimal levels are 90 Watt, 18 Hz, 2.73 ms, and 11.6 cm for the parameter values Power, Frequency, Lead time, and Distance between the probes, respectively, to reach the optimal diameter (183 mu m) and delamination values (1.025).

    A Dss Development Study For Document Distribution Networks For Preparing Autonomous Vehicle-Integrated Distribution Systems
    (DECISION, 2024-12) Derya, Tusan; Ic, Yusuf Tansel; Erbay, Mehmet Dogan; Konuk, Kubra; Fidan, Nihal
    We propose a decision support system (DSS) to complete the tours of the routes of the traveler in charge of document distribution in the least amount of time for the document distribution task of a university to prepare autonomous vehicle-integrated distribution systems. A mathematical model-based decision support system is developed to determine distribution routes that optimize the total distance to target locations and obtain optimal system conditions for use in the migration of autonomous distribution systems. The purpose is to find the shortest-cost tours to cover all or subsets of edges in a network. Documents are shared and distributed by travelers to other related locations. Soon after, travelers will be replaced by autonomous vehicles. There are many application areas, such as newspapers and mail delivery systems. Therefore, the proposed model can be easily extended to other application areas, such as newspaper, cargo, and mail delivery systems, to construct autonomous vehicle-based systems.

    Optimization Of Drilling Process Parameters For Additive Manufacturing Parts Produced Using The Fdm Method
    (JOURNAL OF THE FACULTY OF ENGINEERING AND ARCHITECTURE OF GAZI UNIVERSITY, 2024-09-15) Zorer, Ezgi Selen; Ayhan, Emre; Yurdakul, Mustafa; Ic, Yusuf Tansel
    The melt deposition modeling method (FDM) is one of the increasingly widespread additive manufacturing methods, known as 3D printing, based on the layered assembly of material filaments. However, it is seen that the parts produced with FDM in the aviation industry do not have the desired dimensional and geometric tolerance values. For this reason, different manufacturing methods are used to bring the parts produced by the FDM method to the desired tolerance values. In this study, experiments were carried out to improve the tolerance values of the holes on the plates made of polycarbonate material, which is widely used in prototyping and production tools (welding, drilling, fixing) with FDM, and the optimum processing parameters were determined using the integrated design of experiment and TOPSIS methods. According to the obtained results, the optimum drilling parameters for the plate without pre-drilling case could be obtained by selecting HSS as the drill material, using cutting fluid, and setting the feed rate to 390.9091 mm/min and the spindle speed to 1000 rpm. For the pre-drilled plate, the optimum drilling parameters were again obtained by selecting the drill material HSS, using cutting fluid and applying the feed rate to 369.6970 mm/min and the spindle speed to 781.8182 rpm.

    The New Fuzzy Bottleneck Model to Improve The Axle Manufacturing System Performance
    (INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF INTERACTIVE DESIGN AND MANUFACTURING - IJIDEM, 2024) Sari, Haci; Ic, Yusuf Tansel
    Axles are the crucial undercarriage part of vehicles and affect the total number of manufactured vehicles. Therefore, they are essential parts since they directly affect the production quantity. Some uncertainties arise in the lead times of the machining process in the manufacturing system due to the variability in factors, such as human, machine, and material properties. In this study, the efficiency of the axle manufacturing process is investigated, and performance in the machining unit of an automotive spare part manufacturer company is improved. This study aims to increase the production capacity of the company by using a fuzzy logic-based bottleneck analysis. In this study, a new model is proposed by integrating fuzzy logic the Solberg's bottleneck model, and the performance of the manufacturing system is improved by applying the developed model in the machining unit of the company. At the end of the study, the increase in production rate and the benefit to the company is obtained.

    In this study, we developed a financial performance evaluation model to rank the corporate firms of 24 sectors in the Turkish economy. The developed model is based on the financial ratiosand Technique for Order Preference by Similiarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) approach. This model of ferscorporate firm's rating scores with respect to its competitors belonging to the same industry. The developed model is coded in Visual Basic and tested with real case studies. Financial performance evaluation rankings obtained from TOPSIS, Vise Kriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Resenje (VIKOR), Grey Relational Grade (GRA), and Multi-Objective Optimization on thebasis of Ratio Analysis (MOORA) methods were compared by using Spearman's rank correlation test. Based on the test results, it was found that the TOPSIS method is the most appropriate method for the evaluation of financial performance. An application is also provided in the paper for illustrative purposes.

    A Decision Support System for Selection of Net-Shape Primary Manufacturing Processes
    (2014) Yurdakul, Mustafa; Arslan, Emre; Ic, Yusuf Tansel; Turkbas, O. Selim; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9274-7467; AGE-3003-2022
    Developments in the capabilities of the manufacturing processes increased the number of processes that can produce a part within the requirements determined by its design and market research. The increased number of processes and unfamiliarity of manufacturing engineers to many new manufacturing processes forces the researchers to develop systematic process selection tools instead of depending on the accumulated human expertise only. In this paper, a net-shape primary manufacturing process selection decision support system (DSS), which is named PROSEL (PROcess SELection), is developed. The developed selection programme eliminates the unsuitable processes step by step by checking a part's material, annual production quantity, specified shape, thickness and presents the most economical process as the most appropriate net-shape primary process after a final cost analysis. The developed DSS is written in Visual Studio and tested with a great deal of real-life examples. It can be concluded from the tests that the programme provides the same or better primary manufacturing process selection decisions than the practical usage, and it is a very useful support tool for net-shape primary process selections.

    A TOPSIS Based Design of Experiment Approach to Assess Company Ranking
    (2014) Ic, Yusuf Tansel; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9274-7467; AGE-3003-2022
    Company ranking is a complex process in which multiple financial ratios are required to be considered simultaneously. Furthermore, the selection process of an appropriate credit applicant company has become more complex as the experts in the financial organizations have to assess a wide range of alternatives based on a set of conflicting financial criteria. This paper studies the application of a new approach, i.e., Design of Experiment and TOPSIS method (DoE-TOPSIS) together to make company raking as frequently encountered in the real-time financial environment. The developed model is tested by case studies and satisfactory results are obtained. In the case studies, the results obtained by using the combined DoE-TOPSIS method are almost corroborated by those derived from conventional multi attribute decision making (MADM) methods which prove the applicability, potentiality, simplicity and flexibility of this method in making company ranking.

    Multi-response Simulation Optimization Approach for The Performance Optimization of An Alarm Monitoring Center
    (2014) Simsek, Baris; Ic, Yusuf Tansel; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9274-7467; AGE-3003-2022
    This study offers a multi-response simulation-optimization approach to optimize an Alarm Monitoring Center's performance. In this paper, the multi-response simulation-optimization application is firstly addressed in the Alarm Monitoring Center. Five performance criteria affect the performance of Alarm Monitoring Center and five factors, each of which has three control levels, are identified. The data belonging to the performance criteria, which are determined, are obtained with the help of the running scenarios combining with the factor levels using Taguchi design. Then, signals to the noise (S/N) ratios are calculated for these which are obtained from the performance data. A decision matrix is generated with S/N ratios; the TOPSIS method is used to transfer the multi-response problems into the single-response problems. The system improvement rate is also determined by finding the levels of factors to optimize the system using Taguchi's single response optimization methodology.(C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

    (2014) Simsek, Baris; Ic, Yusuf Tansel; Simsek, Emir H.; Guvenc, Ali Bilge; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9274-7467; AGE-3003-2022
    The optimization of a normal weight concrete mixture proportions for determination of the desired concrete quality is an important issue for concrete manufacturers and users. In this study, the constrained quadratic programming methodology is based on meta-models developed by using response surface methodology for determining optimal normal weight concrete mixture proportions. We developed a graphical user interface to take the burden of numerous experiments and complex mathematical calculations away from laboratory experts and manufacturers. However, we developed a graphical user interface based on MATLAB (R) toolbox which allows performing optimization of normal weight concrete mixture proportions interactively. The GUI was tested through real case studies and satisfactorily results were obtained. The results showed that developed graphical user interface was functional, effective and flexible in solving the optimization problems of normal weight concrete mixture proportions.

    (2019) Ic, Yusuf Tansel; Yurdakul, Mustafa; Gulsen, Mehmet; Dalcan, Gizem; Kirdar, Didem; Kale, Meric; Altinkaya, Zeynep; Aktas, Dogukan; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9274-7467; AGE-3003-2022
    This paper presents performance improvement studies performed in manufacturing activities of an aerospace company. Cellular Manufacturing (CM) and simulation approaches are used to improve performance in the factory of the company. In the application of CM, reorganization of machines in the machining section as manufacturing cells is performed by using Rank Order Clustering (ROC) algorithm and Hollier method. The performance improvement provided by CM application is measured in terms of the total material handling distances travelled by the parts. On the other hand, a simulation model in SIMAN is developed for panel production section of the factory. Based on the performance outputs of the simulation model, various recommendations are proposed in the operation rules and numbers of resources in the panel production section. The results show that both approaches provide considerable performance improvement in the manufacturing activities of the factory.
