(2018)
In this study, it is aimed to experimentally optimize the parameters of the grinding of external surface of the roller followers which are used in internal combustion engines to operate the inlet and exhaust valves. 2k ...
Operating window perspective integrated TOPSIS approach for hybrid electrical automobile selection
(2019)
To reduce vehicle-related environmental pollution, environmental regulations should be taken into account in different levels of sustainable product development process. As a result of the increasingly emitted CO2 and ...
An optimization for milling operation of Kevlar fiber-epoxy composite material using factorial design and goal programming methods
(2019)
Kevlar fiber-epoxy composite material is extensively used in manufacturing areas because of the advantages of composite material's characteristics. It is usually processed by traditional machining methods but the drawbacks ...
Analysis of the effect of the number of criteria and alternatives on the ranking results in applications of the multi criteria decision making approaches in machining center selection problems
(2020)
Multi criteria machining center selection models are widely used in the literature. In the applications of multi-criteria decision making models, machining center selection criteria are directly taken from catalogues. It ...
A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF THE CAPABILITY OF ALTERNATIVE MIXED INTEGER PROGRAMMING FORMULATIONS
(2018)
In selecting the best mixed integer linear programming (MILP) formulation the important issue is to figure out how to evaluate the performance of each candidate formulation in terms of selected criteria. The main objective ...

(2018)
Improvements in technologies applied in material field and continual increase in the number of material types force to develop and use new approaches in material selection. In this paper, a multi-criteria decision support ...
Determination of periodic inspection time in pressurized equipment exposed to fatigue by estimating the probability of fracture
(2021)
It is essential to inspect the pressurized equipment such as vessels, pipes, heat exchangers, boilers, etc., which are under the influence of variable load periodically to minimize the possibility of damage occurring or ...
Fuzzy failure mode and effect analysis application to reduce risk level in a ready-mixed concrete plant: A fuzzy rule based system modelling approach
(2020)
In this study, failure mode and effect analysis were applied to evaluate and eliminate potential failure modes in a Ready-Mixed Concrete Plant using a fuzzy-rule-base system. The questionnaires were specially prepared for ...
The Use of Petri Nets in Performance Analysis of Flexible Manufacturing Cell
(2022)
A Flexible Manufacturing Cell (FMC) is a system that consists of computer-integrated machines, automatic material handling systems, and robots. It produces different part types with minimal worker involvement. Many different ...
